A formidable enemy

Boss battles are absolute fun.

I came up against a massive beast that took me 20 mins to work out how to destroy.  A brilliant feeling after the epic carnage.

How to get your ass kicked by an International Master

Jumped into Twitch.tv to find an unusual treat.  Sabrina Chevannes playing 500+ viewers at Chess.

Sabrina is a Women’s International Chess Master and smashes all the chess player stereotypes.  I ended up being distracted and stayed on the stream for a couple of hours.  She’s been playing chess since the age of 8 and would kick my ass in 5 minutes at the game.

International Master Sabrina Chevannes

Why are Super Stars like this not highlighted more?  To my shame, this was the first time I ever came across this Champion.  Anyhow, seems she’s busy managing her Digital Design company in the London.  Nuff respect.

Naturally, she won against the stream.  A real education.

11 days before the incident

Jumping off a cliff can very often be the trophy moment.

LIMBO ™ has a really interesting prize for walking downhill into absolute pitch blackness. The feeling of fear and uncertainty was priceless.

At the end, the reward was satisfying and I looked back at my hesitation on taking the risk and wonder why.

In 11 days I’m going downhill into real world Zero emotional vision, no hesitation.

I want this.
I need this.

Death and Mayhem

I added Drawn to Death™  to my gaming library a few days ago.  Pretty much an aggressive adult online shooter without the military or police theme.

An excellent gaming snack in-between the big titles.

The Art Work is excellently hand-drawn, hence the title.

Small and unapologetic, this title is upfront and clear about what you are getting into.

2 hours 45 minutes Hysteria

Hamilton the Musical opens in London this November and is sold out already.

The Theatre is not even built yet but the crowds will be descending on Victoria Station this winter for one of the biggest hypes in the West End in years.

Kill for a ticket

It’s the perfect formula and Christmas gift, get the public to fight to buy a ticket with daily and weekly lotteries or open auctions, limit the resale of tickets with high-end verification processes.

All this for less than 3 hours of entertainment.

Stuck in Limbo

A nice independent title that caught my attention some time ago went on sale for $1.99 so I could hardly give up the chance to dive into Limbo.

Find the way out of LIMBO ™

Pure simplicity is its charm and most of the reviews give it the 4 out of 5 stars. Not bad for a Black and White side-scrolling platform game reminiscent of retro titles.

So far it seems the game is based on Fear.  Angst over isolation, loneliness and the massive uncertainty of what could happen next.

After 5 minutes of playing it has a touch of Unravel ™ where you start to actually care about the fate of your character.

I’ve been stuck in my own personal Limbo for a few years now, not moving forwards or backwards just drifting in-between three worlds.  I’m now forced into taking some uncharacteristic risks.

My name is Very Fucking Confused; what’s your name?
