I didn't realize Vapor Brothers was still around, these are old school.

While I don't think I would actively recommend people over to something like VB today, it is cool that an original innovator in the vape space is still operating today.

I've been following this and am intrigued, but the combo of the high price, crowdfunding, and lack of even a functioning prototype to show off has me skeptical enough to not throw down money in advance for one.

If it actually comes out and they don't go bankrupt during the design/manufacturing process, and if the phone is actually good, then I'd definitely consider buying one. I like the concept a lot.

Very nice! What case is that?

I personally use a small pocket sized pouch from Skunk bags to carry my FW7 and a few other small accessories when I need to.

Was the first vape I had ever heard of/tried. Followed closely by the original Pax.

How far we've come.

My favorite desktop is definitely the Herborizer. I love the design of it, and love the hits that it produces. I have other vapes that are technically "more powerful", but for some reason the Herborizer just does it for me.

Portable wise, my favorite would be a close tie between the Tetra P80 and Morwood Toad. The P80 is the stronger performer between the two, but something about the Toad is so pleasant and enjoyable to use.

I've got the same green Grav mug, one of my favorites!

Thanks for sharing! Cool to see what the community has come up with for the Pocket.

I picked up a lot of games on the sale, so here are some thoughts on a few:

Mars After Midnight: I'm still early on in this, but this is already one of my favorite games I've played on Playdate. The art is fun, music is catchy, and the gameplay is fun. At $6 this is a must-buy for any Playdate owner IMO, up there with Bloom.

Bloom: By far my favorite game on Playdate. This is a fantastic game from both a story and gameplay perspective. I've played it start to finish twice, and likely will play a third time as well.

Taxi Trouble: This is a fun high score style game. If you ever played Crazy Taxi or Road Rage, this is essentially a top-down take on that concept.

Steam'd Roller: I thought I'd really enjoy this from the catalog page, but it's only okay. The gameplay is very basic, and there isn't much challenge here for a high score based game. The first time I played I got a score of over 300 before I just gave up and let the timer run out, out of boredom.

Greed: This is a basic dice game, but endlessly replayable. I like that this lets you play against both a computer, or to pass the Playdate back and forth with a partner.

I bought a few others that I haven't gotten to spend much time with yet, but I'll post those thoughts here later!

Mutazione & Saltsea Chronicles are two favorites of mine, from the same developer, which don't seem to get much attention.

They're both narrative focused games, with a lot of world building and character development.

I enjoyed both of them greatly, and if you like chill story based games, I think you'd enjoy them!

Maybe I haven't spent enough time searching out accounts to follow, but I've found Pixelfed to be a bit lacking compared to Lemmy.

Lemmy successfully replaced Reddit for me. But Pixelfed is just too barren for me to be able to ditch Instagram.

 

Panic is putting out a showcase of upcoming games on February 28th at 12pm ET. The most noteworthy title being shown off will be "Mars After Midnight" by Papers Please developer Lucas Pope.

What's your LIS ranking? (self.lifeisstrange)
submitted 10 months ago by 3migo to c/lifeisstrange
 

I've played all the LIS games and have been a fan of the series since the original released while I was in college.

For me, I think my ranking of the games is as followed:

  1. Before the Storm
  2. Life is Strange
  3. Life is Strange 3
  4. Life is Strange 2

Not including Captain Spirit because it's really more of a companion title and so short. It's a really close tie for me between the original LiS & LiS 3, as I really enjoyed both.

Before the storm was such a surprise for me and I really enjoyed the way they developed the characters & romance in that title, which makes it stand out for me.

Despite my love & enjoyment of the series, I really couldn't get into LiS 2. I played the whole game, but I struggled my way through it. I did not like the characters or the plot, and only finished it out of a hope that the ending would be worth it.

Hide & seek across Switzerland. Season premiers February 28th on Nebula.

 

After it being on my radar since release, I finally played Saltsea Chronicles.

I loved Mutazione, and was looking forward to trying out whatever else the developer put out, and despite not being immediately interested after the demo, I took the plunge and am so glad that I did.

Saltsea Chronicles carries so much of the same storytelling elements, world & character building, and a focus on community that Mutazione had, and goes deeper with it.

One of the things I found fascinating about Mutazione was this small community that had formed on the island, cut off from the rest of humanity. In the face of a radioactive disaster, they came together in community to support each other, and live with nature. It was an interesting look at what society could look like when cut off from outside pressure.

Saltsea takes this concept of disaster bringing together a community, and expands it into a more fleshed out world, with its own culture, practices, art. Your choices matter in terms of where the crew ultimately goes, and what islands you see. It's a game I could easily see myself replaying in order to visit all the places I didn't go to during my first play through.

If you loved Mutazione, I'd highly suggest trying out Saltsea for yourself. For those curious, it took me about ~14 hours to complete.

Have you played Saltsea? What did you think?

 

Plus you can use an Epic coupon and get an additional 33% off the sale price!

 

Great price on a really fun game. If you pick it up and play it, let us know what you think!
