It’s been a relaxing break, but it’s rained quite a bit. So, we decided to go through the Sinister Six campaign. Just got to the final villain.

Got to check out a penny arcade museum at Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco yesterday and it was pretty awesome. However, I did see a bunch of games I used to play as a kid in the museum. So, now I feel old. 🕹️

“Introduce yourself with five TV shows” 📺:

  • Seinfeld
  • Chuck
  • V.G.H.S
  • Spongebob Squarepants

  2. The Sims 3 (PC)
  3. Journey (ps3)
  4. Rocket League
  5. Uncharted 2 (ps3)

My curiosity got the best of me, and I finally joined Mastodon (game dev server). But I have no idea what I’m doing. So, if anyone has any tips for getting started, I’ll gladly take any advice I can get.
