more shovel knight shenanigans!

this time, we go under water to find and deal with treasure knight:

You could try play from Sierra, Lighthouse: The Dark Being, that was a good point/click Myst type game, and it is old though, so I don't know if you have a copy around, since you can't get it online yet, but it does work in Windows Vista, XP, and 7 (even 64 bit) from a patch!

thanks for the heads up. i never actually /played/ lighthouse, though i'm aware of it.

aol [who i will never, ever, ever give money to, ever again] shuttered some of my favourite gaming blogs [wowinsider, joystiq and massively]

this is my audio-only send-off for those three blogs:

Yeah I love Lighthouse, I should purchase the Jewel Case from Amazon, and that way I have a copy again, since you can download the patch to make it work for modern OS.

I really wish they would release that game here on GOG and Amber: Journeys Beyond, but I highly doubt that, since we can't even get Myst 3/4 on here, let alone titles back in the Windows 95 day!

nice. :) - enjoy lighthouse, if you pick it up again.

and i agree. it'd be fantastic to get missing bits of the sierra catalogue here, but...sadly, i don't know that that'll ever happen :(

king graham: a study in falling.

that's /basically/ how this week's episode of king's quest 5 goes:

this week's epsiode of lost eden sees me digging for a /lot/ of gold.

also, i can't read my own handwriting when it comes to my notes and i keep calling a lord a lady. ah well :P

that's what happens when you test run exactly once :P

did i practice shovel knight at all this week?

nope.

is that going to stop me from inflicting fail upon everyone?

not really :P

we do [very slowly] the lair of plague knight :)

this week's episode of king's quest 5 is a-MAZE-ing. sorry :P

otherwise, we pick up a whole raft of stuff on the harpy's island and make our way to mordack's fortress.

this week's episode of lost eden contains a whole bunch of fail. [from failure to turn some of my other devices off to more ruinous silliness :P]

it also contains a crazy amount of nightmare fuel as we go and deal with the castra.

we visit the hall of champions tihs week in shovel knight and learn that you shouldn't just throw money at your monitor.

we also go under the mountain and visit mole knight in his lair.

after that, we save our love!

it's almost like valentine's day, but not exactly ;)

king's quest 5 comes to a sudden, abrupt halt when we rain on mordack's parade.

[this is the final episode. next week, we play something new :)]

this week in episode 7 of lost eden!

repetitive valley injury!

in which - basically - the game forces you to do the same action a whole lot of times in different places to rally the triceratops.
