Any Gamers Here?

As I mentioned before, I am a fan of old PC games made by the company Hamumu. This game is called Loonyland 2 collectors edition.

I actually just finished the game. The final boss turned out to be a two dimensional being called the happy stick bird. It was just an m shaped line.

For reference, happy stick is a recurring theme in these games made by this company. They are all two dimensional beings that look like stick figures. However, they are very powerful. If I recall correctly, there is a happy stick man, the happy stick spider, the happy stick witch, the happy stick bird, and the happy stick boy.

These games are my childhood.

Seems fun

Gamer adjacent. Working on spiffing up my office space and plan to put some floating shelves up around my battlestation for geeky displays. Printed these stands for old video cards. I had to slice them into 2 parts to fit my printer bed so I'm not super thrilled with the joints, I need to do some sanding/filling/painting on them but they turned out ok and I think will be a neat little visual distraction.

I love them! I have lots of nerdy/gamer easter eggs tucked all over our house, so these are right up my alley!

When I got my Switch last year I picked up a game called “Green Hell” for $2 but barely played it. Tonight I got it for the PS5. Huge jump in graphics and framerate.

I note that the Switch screen captures are generous. Seems like the software cleans them up somehow. The game in motion on the TV screen looks worse than the capture.

Here’s some additional PS5 screenshots:

Crazy difference. I also have both a Switch and PS5. I've definitely learned to keep it to cartoony games for the Switch (or Nintendo titles, obviously). I love Nintendo, but their hardware infuriates me to no end. Your game looks pretty sweet!

I feel the same. I love Nintendo. I just hate how the last several console generations they’ve been content to keep the gfx capabilities of the systems a couple steps behinds the competition. I’d pay premium for a Nintendo system that’s top-of-the-line in terms of gfx capabilities.

The game Green Hell seems neat for the little time I’ve put into it. Its nothing but a survival game set in the Amazon. There is a VR version for the PS VR2 that I bet is awesome. A lot of the gameplay is intuitive for myself as a woodsman.

Hogwarts on switch for the most part looked great. Until I got to hogsmeade. You have to load at EVERY SINGLE SHOP. Hogwarts was relatively seamless tho.

I didn't play it but my friends who did were constantly griping at how crashy it was on pc and switch.

I had it crash twice but then they came out with an update. Didn't crash after that.

Yessssss! Either keep up, or get out! I wish they’d become just a software company. All my Switch controllers have drift… ugh!
