What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Raging Bytes (PS4)

September 27th, 2025

Today, I am kind of sleepy and antisocial, and I bought myself a coffee shop cinnamon roll as a reward for accomplishing absolutely nothing. It's not a bad day.

As far as games go, I had my RPG hour with Raging Bytes. I had a lot of fun with it, even if it did feel goofy to level grind by throwing rocks at one zombie at a time. Zombie fiction is an interesting setting for an RPG, though! I honestly have no idea why I dropped this after one play session. It's quick paced and I like the pixel art, so my quitting was my own fault, not the game's.

I needed some sleepy casual gaming before bed, so I played some puzzles in Zodiacats. The art in this game is super lovely, but all the images are so similar that it isn't a ton of fun as a puzzle game. I cleared all the zodiac puzzles on normal mode last night, but still want to tackle them on hard more. It's important to get the most out of a two dollar game.

I played Baking Time for a few minutes, too, which is what finally put me to sleep. It was not notable other than that.

Today's post is super late! I got worried I'd be late for work if I posted this morning, so I saved it for when I got home. It probably would have been fine, but I wasn't eager to risk it earlier.

I tried a couple of new games yesterday, with the more interesting of them being a zombie themed budget JRPG called Raging Bytes. I actually enjoyed the start of it quite a lot, and appreciate the gusto with which it throws around zombie movie tropes and background details like buildings with giant signs that say "Shopping Store." I'm not very far in this, but am looking forward to playing more when I get a good chunk of gamin' time.

I also started a small scale Switch game, Zodiacats, that's just tile swapping puzzles of cats. It's a pretty decent before bed game, and I'm not going to turn up my nose at a cat-themed casual game. I'll probably knock this out in just a few play sessions!
