What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Super Dimension Fortress Macross II (Switch)

July 13th, 2025

I slept super poorly last night, so tonight's post will lack zest. I tried Super Dimension Fortress Macross II, an old arcade shooter yesterday, though. It is a score attack style shooter, where you need to hit a certain amount of points to go to the next level, and I really enjoyed it! It's kicking my butt so hard I can't clear the beginner set of stages on easy, but that just means I have nowhere to go but up (and, within the game, probably to the right).

I played a couple pretty good rounds of Meteora's Mystic Merge before bed, too. It's the perfect game to play and let your mind wander while wondering how long it would take your area to turn into a wasteland ruled by roving bike gangs if you've just been watching Mad Max movies.
