End of June Update!

New Pokemon Snap

I'm about to sound old right now, but in 1999 Pokemon Snap came out on the Nintendo 64. Five year old me frickin loved this game. I then played it a few years later and loved it even more. Its very nostalgic to me, and this new version definitely delivered!

In Pokemon Snap you are a pokemon photographer who goes around taking pictures of different pokemon. You are given items that have the pokemon react or do things that lead to secrets and new areas. Then the professor rates your pictures.

New Pokemon Snap took this concept and added so much while keeping everything that made the game great to begin with. New items have been added to get a bigger variation of pictures. There are so many more pokemon as well. There are way more secrets and easter eggs. The further you get in the game and the levels, the more you can see and do.

You can now edit your pictures. You can add stickers, filters, reframe, and do a bunch to the photos to make them perfect. You can then share your photos online and have other people like your photos. There is also a photodex that shows you the pictures you've taken of each pokemon.

The scoring system is much better then the original. You have to catch the pokemon in different situations to get different star ratings. Then you can get bronze, silver and gold stars. It also takes in account the size, how many pokemon are in the shot, if the pokemon is looking at you, the background, and other things in the score. I also really enjoyed that they added a story to the game, even if its a small one!

Overall, if you've never played Pokemon Snap, I highly recommend it if you like calming games like Animal Crossing. And if you liked the original and your skeptical, I'm here to say they did the original justice, and more.

Another short and spooky game by Chilla's Art. I stream these with a friend, and I enjoy the fact that they are short because otherwise I wouldn't be able to finish them. I'm awful with horror, but these are just spooky enough to be fun and not overbearing.

In this one, you wander around Inunaki Tunnel. Apparently this is based off a real place in Japan, which makes the game creepier. You mostly just walk around and solve some puzzles and there are multiple endings. It's not a fantastic game, but its short and cheap, and it freaked me out. There is also a secret ending that is creepy af.

Another horror game!

I love Resident Evil. My laziness is the only reason It took me so long to play this. In this first-person Resident Evil game, you play a man named Ethan who goes to a creepy isolated house to rescue his long lost wife. Things don't go so well, and all of the sudden cannibals are trying to adopt Ethan.

This game was a lot of fun. It brought Resident Evil back to its roots while also adding an entirely new feel. I love the old Resident Evil style, but I also love this. My only gripe is that the main character is kind of boring and emotionless. He's not really the focus though and it doesn't detract from the strengths of the game.

If you are a new Resident Evil fan or a a fan of the older games (that were more survival horror orientated) then I highly recommend this one! Now I just have to save up money for RE Village, because I'm very curious how all of that plays into the story.

Its You: A Breakup Story is a very short game about an unhealthy one-sided relationship. You play a nurse who gets a call in the middle of the night by your boyfriend, Josh. The gameplay consists of just picking dialogue options. The game is very short and it quickly starts to repeat dialogue options. I enjoyed it though and its a pretty accurate portrayal of a toxic relationship.

The developers also donate 20 percent of the games profit to the Atira Women's Resource Society. That's not related to the story, but I thought it was really nice.

I got it on sale for a dollar, and If you're interested, I recommend it for the experience.
