When Cuphead was originally released in 2017, people just wouldn’t stop talking about it. And based on the screenshots I had seen, the game looked cool enough with its 1930’s style graphics. Nevertheless, I was never actually tempted to try it myself, but rather decided to watch a playthrough of the game on YouTube. And…

I like to work on art and writing and was inspired by video games and movies and other such things. I love when I find creative stories and characters, and I try to make my own. So far, I've been unsuccessful, but I'm trying.
Resonance: Wawku Shrine
We’ve already written about the Okami soundtrack three times in the past because it’s just that good. Today we’ll be discussing one of my absolute favorite songs of all time, Wawku Shrine. This is the shrine where resides the Twin Demons, two clockwork owls called Lechku and Nechku. Being one of the final locations in…
The Room: Puzzling at Its Finest
The Duck recently had the pleasure of playing a little puzzle game called The Room, which I heard about from fellow blogger The Shameful Narcissist. Originally released as an iOS game in 2012, I got to play the Switch version, which came about far more recently (2018…I’m always late for things). This game was a…

Top 10 Games from Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection
Nowadays, retro games are easier to obtain than they’ve ever been, thanks to such services as Nintendo Switch Online or collections where dozens of games are amassed on a single disc. Never having owned any of the Sega consoles, one such collection that I simply had to buy was Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection on the…
Resonance: Ghost House
Super Mario World was the Mario game that I grew up with. Though it took many years before I was ever able to actually beat it myself, I still looked back on it with (mostly) fond memories, as a symbol of my childhood, alongside such classics as Donkey Kong Country and The Legend of Zelda:…
Metroid Prime Trilogy: A Comparison
With Metroid Prime 4 sure to be a reality…someday and a full playthrough of the entire Trilogy now in my recent past, I thought it would be a good time to compare all three games and discuss where each game excels and where each falls short. Though I’ll admit that the first game is by…
Resonance: Greenpath
Music is a vital part of any gaming experience, as vital as the characters, story, and gameplay. For me, and assuredly so many others, a game’s soundtrack can act as an emotional link between the player and the game, making a fictional world feel so much more real and alive. While plenty of games are…
Hollow Knight Was an Unforgettable Experience
Having limited money to spend on games, the two main times when my gaming library is allowed to grow is my birthday and Christmas. And so, by the time these special dates arrive, I have a selection of games already on my wish list. I’ve been able to largely keep up with my gaming wants…
