What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

100 Christmas Cats (Lenovo Legion Go)

November 17th, 2024

Today, this post is late because I was out doing some nice stuff with family members! As a result, I am rather sleepy and kicking myself for playing so many games yesterday.

My gaming variety was pretty wide yesterday. I downloaded and finished a super-casual Steam freebie called 100 Christmas Cats where I just found 100 cats in a line drawing of a little Christmas town. It only took a little over half an hour, some of that which was my figuring out the zoom controls. It was cute, though, and I got 100 Steam achievements from it. I downloaded nine more of these, because they're free and have cats, so please enjoy being bored by more descriptions of this nonsense in the future.

I spent quite a bit of time with Metal Slug Attack Reloaded, too, gawking at the sprite art and levelling up my units. I'm getting a better grasp on how to approach the tower defense stages, simple as they are, but I wish I could level my units past level 10! Hopefully, I'll hit a player rank that lets me do that soon.

Over on my Miyoo Mini+, which I'd unproductively left on my craft table, I turned on a Game Boy Advance game called Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Big Break because I have some nostalgia for Tiny Toons. I then, in a pleasant surprise, found myself getting whupped by a Treasure beat-em-up. It feels like a simple base game, with some depth to the support system, which lets you call out a second character to attack. Launching tiny enemies up in the air to ram them into bigger ones was extremely satisfying, too. I'll probably give this another shot, but it was a bit more than I wanted to deal with last night.

As if all of that weren't enough, I buzzed through some of the story mode stages in Jujutsu Kaisen: Phantom Parade during and after lunch, too. I was satisfied with my progress.

I'm probably not going to play a ton of games tonight, as I am dozin' off already, but I'll be back tomorrow with some sort of post!
