So, I haven't posted anything here for about a week and, while I certainly do not yet have anything resembling an established community for this blog, it would be good to let anyone stopping by know what's going on.
One thing that's been going on is I've been writing reviews for the National Game Development Month (NaGaDeMo) Review Drive at rpgmaker.net and both writing the reviews and playing the actual games takes up a fair amount of time. Since the games I have been reviewing are demos and generally need some polishing up, I have not been posting about them here, but the bottom of this post will have a link to my reviews for anyone interested.
The second reason I haven't been updating much this week is the English remake of La Mulana launched recently and I have become rather addicted to it. The remake of La Mulana costs $15, so I normally would not post about it here since I'd prefer to limit this blog to entirely free games, but it is worth noting that this remake has some massive changes in it which go far beyond the aesthetics, so even people did not care for the original version (myself included) may still get a lot of entertainment out of the remake.
This means that any posts made in the usual fashion this week would have probably been shorter than usual and not as detailed, so I would be rather unhappy with them. However, starting tomorrow I will introduce a new post category called Pause Menu, so that there is at least something for when I do not have the time to play through and write about recommendable free games. Pause Menu posts will probably end up being just as lengthy as usual, but some may also be much shorter and they will not stick to the usual categories. For example, a Pause Menu update tomorrow will likely be about the remake of La Mulana even though it's not a free game. Pause Menu will also have the potentially nice effect of leading to the permanent implementation of more weekly topics to add some more variety.
Link Time!
