I only sell the strongest potions. You'd better find a different seller that sells weaker potions!

I've probably played this way more than I should've.

Filly Astray is a short platformer with fighting combos and controls. But be warned, it has a high learning curve; it took me a while to get used to the controls, accidentally automatically jumping off platforms I just managed to edgegrab onto, and I was in for a rude awakening when the mid-game boss just said 'no' to my spammed attacks and repeatedly pummelled me to death. It basically forced me to stop, and think about my attacks.

And once I did, once I did, I started understanding the game. I began understanding parts of my moveset I'd previously not bothered experimenting with before, the combos I could pull off, and which ones worked against certain enemies. And now I can easily speed through the game in under a half-hour. ...on Easy Difficulty.

I've then tried out Normal, and realised that while Easy taught me to think about my attacks, Normal is teaching me about the timing of my blocks. No longer will just holding down the Block button protect me from most attacks. I've got to parry that. Honestly, as someone who was never really amazing at fighting games, kinda exciting at this point!

Definitely worth picking up and sticking with, and not simply because of pony. (but yes, game has pone, is good)

I never had a step-dad, but I'd imagine Counter-Strike 2 feels like how it'd feel to be told I can't be with my real dad anymore.

Highly recommend just for the writing alone, if not the art and music, which both complement it very well. Very easy to get into, and there's enough mystery and intrigue around every corner to keep you pushing forward to the end. Not everything is clear-cut and dry, and multiple options allow you to build upon your character's story however you want as you work your way through without having to previously fill in a full-on checklist for several minutes before you even start.

I played casually, but I can easily see the higher difficulties' time limit working well with the story, if you want that extra challenge of figuring out what's the most important direction to push the story in before time's up.



also there's a horse

(but no, seriously, horse is good companion; don't be stupid and ride into danger)

Literally flipped my mouse as I tried to run when Greg turned the corner and sauntered towards me.

100/10

Wednesday, May the 4th, 2022: I have completed the Commitment Achievement.

I'll see y'all back here Tuesday, May the 4th, 2032 for my 100% completion run.

Game looks promising, however unintuitive controls and the inability to remap them has prevented me from getting any further beyond the early stages.

Also there's no Main Menu or hotkey to quit the game.

If you're looking for a good Sonic game, this is not it. There's wonky momentum, bad writing, and a lot of the time the game feels like it'd rather play itself for you.

But it is a fun game, despite all that. Sure, it gets a lot of flak for being OC: The Game, but the OC-*ahem* sorry, Avatar levels really are the best part of the game. Add in the ridiculously edginess of Infinite, and this is just a bad fanfic made game incarnate, and if you indulge yourself in the silliness of it all, I feel you can get a lot of enjoyment out of it. I'm honestly sad I'm done with the game, as I want more from it.

Took a long break from playing, came back, discovered you can put a hat on your horse. Amazing.

I spent 11 hours playing the tutorial.

I don't regret it.
