inb4 Wall-E stole the plot from this game!

I kept trying to get through Vectorman. But I just don't dig it, and eventually I had to give up. The graphics are technically impressive, but it all looks too muddy, and too busy. It's hard to tell where anything is, or even what anything is. Vectorman himself is a robot I …

I kept trying to get through Vectorman. But I just don't dig it, and eventually I had to give up. The graphics are technically impressive, but it all looks too muddy, and too busy. It's hard to tell where anything is, or even what anything is. Vectorman himself is a robot I guess? But he's just a bunch of floating spheres? Whatever he is, he takes up too much space on the screen. If I walk forward a couple steps, there's suddenly an enemy robot right there, shooting at me point-blank. Or a dozen bird robot things swooping down at me, though it looked like they were in the background. Too many flashing lights. The level designs being really dull also don't help matters either. I will at least say I liked the sound effects though -- that PEW-PEW is forever ingrained in my head.

Welp, Vectorman video is done, but seeing as Twitch has become even MORE of a bitchy butthole and doesn't allow anyone to simply upload anymore, I don't exactly know what to do with this stuff now. I wanted to keep my gaming stuff separate from my other video content, and that's why I don't wanna publish it to youtube (that …

I wanted to keep my gaming stuff separate from my other video content, and that's why I don't wanna publish it to youtube (that among other obvious reasons) but ugh, it's always one more thing I guess...

I really love being mocked in spaces I thought I belonged. Community spaces can rot in hell.

Also, Vectorman video is still incoming. I think I've managed to figure out a way to fix this issue with the capture, so expect it this weekend.

There's some issues with editing the capture I took for Vectorman, and that's why the video isn't out yet. Sorry guys. I'll still try and have it out this week, despite this being my week off.

After an entire weekend of nothing but hours upon hours of video editing, I will finally have the Vectorman video out tomorrow, and will link it here when it goes live. The editing I've been doing wasn't even for that, just so you know lol

I'm trying to make an analysis type video on Vectorman for the Genesis about cleaning up trash and toxicity in the world and whatnot, but it's actually become extremely relatable to my life at the moment since it's crumbling around me so please forgive me if it takes me a bit longer to get this out than expected.

I just start crying whenever I go to write it. I'll get it out though, I promise.
