Shoutout to the random dad at the free play arcade who saw me playing the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Arcade Game and asked me if he could hop in as he saw me playing Leonardo

He played as Raphael at first but then switched to Donatello for better range attacks and then back to Raphael at the final battle with Shredder cause the attack button just stopped working for Donnie

It was great cause I’m sure at first we were both had the mentality of “Until I get a game over” but then at the second level we were both like “Nah we’re finishing this”

This is why I love arcades

Also if you ever see me playing any Beat-Em-Up game in an arcade please join me, that’s how they’re meant to be played

It's a rough world out there for people who were teenagers during the exact slice of gaming history where indie video games had become feasible to develop and distribute globally, but the definition of "indie" didn't yet encompass corporate studios and million-dollar budgets. They'll tell you their favourite game when they were a kid was, like, a point-and-click visual novel whose protagonist dreams they're a vast formless sea monster that learns about the concept of colours after finding a discarded helium balloon, or a hypertext fiction/precision platformer hybrid exploring gender as a mechanism of social control, and you think they're either being pretentious or deliberately fucking with you, but no, that's just what the indie gaming scene was like for a couple of years there. The sea monster thing got a front-page feature on the same site that made Bloons Tower Defense a household name – it was literally played by millions of people.

We all know that Astarion has some of the best lines in the game but nobody - NOBODY - told me how softly Gale's VA delivers that "I forget my Goddess" line... the breathlessness? the yearning?? hello

Indie developers seriously wake up every morning and say "$15 for my life's work, please"
