Quick-fire no-achievement triple-feature

Decided to quickly smash out some of the shortest games in my library, perhaps in preparation for a super long trilogy i’m about to dive into ? Either way, it feels good to pull down some low-hanging fruit

Half-Life 2

Furi Demake

0.2 hours
no achievements

The first boss fight of Furi remade into a side-scroller, and a bit less graphical fidelity. Interesting to see how they translated the mechanics through this perspective change (ditto for the music into chip-tune), but otherwise pretty straightforward

Half-Life 2

a Museum of Dubious Splendors

0.6 hours
no achievements

A short tour through a museum of mundane objects presented with fantastical stories. I liked the play on how displaying something (or telling a wild tale about it) automatically makes it interesting, even if it's nothing. Didn't get much more than that out of it though

Half-Life 2

Aperture Desk Job

0.5 hours
no achievements

Basically a tech demo for the Steam Deck, but it took me this long to actually play it. Not really sure what the purpose this serves, since games themselves would be a good enough demo, but i'm sure some people had fun making it. Nice voice acting and humour, and looks decent enough

Nice hahaha I think I have Furi Demake. I’m not sure if I’m missing much by never having played the actual Furi, but it’s so short that it makes me think it doesn’t matter hahha

OC/DC

Probably not missing much, but it’s hard for me to say, as i really enjoyed Furi, and replayed it fairly recently.
It would be interesting to see what you think about this Demake, having no prior influence from the base game, but no pressure

I brought it up on my backlog. I’m still a bit behind on PoP but I think I might be able to play this in late May or early June. Will keep you posted!
