Something for the Index

It's a bit later than I initially intended, but the blog finally has an Index page. I'll probably fiddle with the categories over time, but for now I'm happy with how it turned out, so be sure to give it a shot if you don't feel like browsing chronologically!

In other news, I have at this point uploaded videos for slightly over half of the games developed by Lazy Brain Games to my YouTube channel and will have the rest uploaded by the end of the month.

As for updates for the blog itself, the second half of Video Game Death Penalties should be up within a week's time. In addition, while I won't devote a post purely to a single game by Lazy Brain Games, I'll make a post giving brief impressions on all thirteen of them after all of their respective videos have been uploaded to YouTube.

Lastly, I would like to mention that while I have not given any recommendations for indie RPG's recently, I have written quite a few reviews of them over on rpgmaker.net and I would recommend Homage and Shukumei Star in particular.

Well, that's it for now! However, if anyone knows of any at least somewhat obscure freeware games they would like to see me blog about or make a video of, feel free to let me know either by posting here or sending me a message!

Temporary Focus on Videos

So, I haven't made a post here in a while and posting in general is likely going to be slow for a bit longer. As the title of this post suggests, I will instead temporarily be focusing on making videos of games and uploading them on YouTube as I want to become more familiar with video creation and editing. Unlike previous videos, I also plan to include annotations, so making blog posts in addition to the videos would be somewhat redundant (though I will likely still be making a few posts this month not related to specific games, such as the second half of Video Game Death Penalties).

To begin with, I will be taking a look at most, if not all, of the games made by Lazy Brain Games, which I only discovered very recently and instantly fell in love with. These games tend to be very short, around ten minutes each, so expect to se the games covered from beginning to end.

I will also be creating an 'Index' page for this blog in the near future to sort these posts into categories to make them easier to navigate between than Blogger's standard date-based sorting allows.

Lastly, here is a link to my YouTube channel where all these videos will be posted in addition to several existing videos of various indie games.
