My Deck time for the last while has been consumed by playing Minecraft with the family.

Unfortunately not - hopefully next time!

What have you been playing lately?
Just emulated stuff, as has been the norm for me for most of this year. Saturn Bomberman (Saturn, of course ) remains a firm favourite, and I plan to play Castlevania: Rondo of Blood (PC Engine) next week for Halloween.
Been sick for a few days . . . have been playing quite a bit of Terraformers. It's fairly relaxing once you get the hang of it.

Been playing a load of Starship Troopers: Extermination - janky but awesome fun, with nice progression across multiple classes. But I can only play THAT because I finally finished the absolutely stunning Tactical Breach Wizards, a game that I suspect will live in my "Top 10 Games of All Time" list for many years to come.

Finally playing Impostor Factory so I can move on to the Just a To the Moon Series Beach Episode and catch up with the series.

I'll probably check out The Holy Gosh Darn demo but it seems to be a Norwegian production. Is it still mandatory to wear the lusekofte when playing?

How did I miss Tactical Breach Wizards? It sounds so far up my alley it's past the dead end.

Going by the screenshots, that game has literal butt-face characters.
