Dust An Elysian Tail

So finally!  I am now let's playing Dust: An Elysian Tail.  A pretty fun game that I saw on humblebundle.com a few months back.  I have four videos done on my let's play channel.  I want to complete the whole thing on Youtube.  Please tell me what you think.

I also fell in love with a visual novel called Area-X.  Please look forward to that let's play someday.

Civil War VI and Gaming Schedule

If you have been following my tumblr account, then you know that I have been busy.  Last week I went to Civil War 6, my old fightstick died on me, I went 2 and 2 in the Injustice tournament, and I fought the only joker player in all of history.  Apparently, joker is a bad match up for Aquaman.  Like all fighting game tournaments, I met a lot of nice and helpful people and leveled up.  

Civil War was the first major I went to.  I went 2 0 in a Persona tournament.  How much I have improved since then.

With a new job, comes money and I was able to order a new arcade stick when I went home.  Already, I replaced some of the buttons for the Q4 as I'm not a fan of yellow.  By next week, I should have artwork already on the arcade stick.  

On the Lets Play side of things, I will be playing Dust, Anodyne, and some visual novel soon.  I just need to figure out my schedule.  

Top of the Food Chain 7

Tournament: Top of the Food Chain 7

Hello guys.  Yesterday was Top of the Food Chain 7.  Still playing Aquaman since the game's release, I managed to take 9th place at Top of the Food Chain.  TOTFC is a bi-monthly tournament for various fighting games.  Whenever I end up on stream, I post my part on my youtube channel.

I got 9th place. This is my last match. Which happened to be the only one on stream.  I lost my first match with Octoglass and won my other two matches.  Like all tournaments, I learn something and continue to practice.

First Impressions: Anime Pirates

You love One Piece?  You ever wanted to fight alongside Luffy?  You desire to become King of the Pirates?  I sort of have the game for you.  That game is called Anime Pirates!   Anime Pirates is obviously a One Piece MMORPG browser game.

Trailer 

Anime Pirates is pretty colorful and the players will get a chance to run into various characters from the One Piece series.  As someone who is not a fan of One Piece, I could recognize quite a few of the popular One Piece characters.  Any video game based on a particular franchise can be enjoyable despite someone not being a fan of the material (seeing non-anime fans enjoy the daylights out of Gundam Extreme VS Full Boost comes to mind).

Anime Pirates is meant to be played at leisure or not played at all.  There is an auto feature which allows the player to click on the quest and have the player auto walk to the quester.  I then obtain my quest and beat the crap out of my opponents.  The battles are pretty boring.  I set up my crew in the formations that I desire and watch them auto fight the battle for me

The only control that I had in battle was with selecting the formations of my crew on the battlefield and giving them their equipment.

Going Deeper

The more I played, the more options opened up to me.  I obtained more crew members, a ship, and the arena.  I also noticed the game is latent with grammar errors.  If you're like me and tried let's playing this game, then reading obviously grammatically incorrect sentences was a bother.  Every few levels, gave me a change of scenery and the option to fight in the arena.

This is a browser game.  It probably did not take much time to make.  Strangely, I found myself wanting to play more to see what options I was going to get next.  Anime Pirates is available on pirates-anime.com

Messing Around in Antichamber Part 1

 Antichamber is apart of the Humble Bundle 11.  It is a unique puzzle, mind screwing game.  I may or may not return to this.  Next up is Dust.  Click here to go to humblebundle.com

Finding Some Games to Play

Last post was about my participation at Northeast Championship.  Good times.  In the future, I would like to buy some an AVerMedia and record my matches for my youtube channel.  With my travels to the local scene Tuesday, Friday, sometimes Sunday, and the occasional Top of the Food Chain (every two months); there is an opportunity for plenty of matches to be recorded.

The next possibility is ever increasing list of video games that are piling up in my collection of video games to play.  One game I am going to playing next is called Endless Ocean.  The graphics are really bad but its more of an educational game that is playable and has some enjoyment in it.  Better to have played the game then to waste the twenty bucks I spent on it.

There's also Dragon Age, Zelda Skyward Sword, among others.  

Up on the list are indie visual novels which are easy to make thanks to the visual novel making engine called Ren'py.  There are plenty of good and a TON of more BAD visual novels made by amateurs in the database here.  Then I could download a few games from Steam and Desura (the indie game friendly version of Steam as I have heard the website called). 

Any suggestions for games or visual novels you guys would like to see me play from Steam, Ren'py, and Desura?

Northeast Championship

I am not sure if I mentioned this before but I am into fighting games.  Injustice is one of the games that I have been playing since April thanks to the local scene I am in.  On the first weekend of December, I went to Philadelphia and participated in an Injustice tournament.  I made it to fifth place in my pools (which was pool 5) and went 3 and 2.  Oddly, I lost to Mr. Aquaman the guy who is not only in my scene but also one of the first people who taught me how to play my character.

I would like to post all the matches that I had on stream and put them on my youtube channel but Kombat Network's stream went down during my two matches.  Please look toward the end of the stream here and the beginning of this stream here for my matches.  Things happen.

Luckily a few other matches were recorded during my pools thanks to the AVerMedia.  

The matches below were recorded with this device. You can buy it on Amazon if you like the quality.

NEC XIV Injustice Pools - JamesMK (Martian Manhunter) vs Ice Angel (Aquaman)

 

NEC XIV Injustice Pools - EMPR Outworld (Black Adam) vs Ice Angel (Aquaman)

The only match not recorded was me (Ice Angel) versus Masta CJ; a mirror match.  I only use Aquaman.  The last day at NEC was funny as everyone was snowed in, the hotel rooms were all taken, and so we played with other Injustice tournament participants before finally being able to leave around five (the roads were closed for a while).
