Try saying that five times fast.
Awful alliteration aside, I’ve got a series of reviews coming your way as I play through all of my Steam Summer Sale impulse buys (that I made very responsibly by limiting myself to a $100 CAD budget).
On our roster (so far) we have, in no particular order:
- Influent*
- Aviary Attorney
- VA-11 HALL-A
- Forgotten, Not Lost – A Kinetic Novel
- A Little Lily Princess
- Season of 12 Colors
- Learn Japanese To Survive! Hiragana Battle
*I’m playing the Korean language-learning version, as I wanted to refresh my knowledge and learn new words.
I’m very excited to finally have more games in my library that I will get around to playing whenever I can/feel up to it. I know that this selection is pretty much half visual novel, half language learning, but I’m pretty stoked to play all of these and share my thoughts with you!
I’d love to hear about the games you’ve recently bought in the sale or are planning to pick up. Leave a comment!
On a more personal note, life has been hectic lately. I know I say that a lot, but this time it really is.
Right now, we’re dealing with a broken water heater that was leaking and flooding the basement (we opted to shut off the water altogether and have had to walk to McDonalds to use the bathroom for *ahem* no. 2s), a house guest arriving this weekend, as well as an upcoming move to an apartment! That doesn’t even include the other stuff going on for my co-dictator of the universe involving college preparations.
After we’re set up in the apartment, looking for work will be my top priority. So, I’ll likely opt to play the smaller games/VNs for stress relief. Thankfully, I’m well-stocked in that department now.
In a fit of excited graduation feelings, I decided to take advantage of the post-graduation credit offered to me by the university. Alumni get a sum of money to put towards any School of Continuing Studies course they wish, provided the money covers the cost of the course. Since I am a language nerd, I’ve decided that I’m going to take a course in beginner Dutch, starting in October.
When it comes to stress levels and having too many things on my plate, as with dessert buffets, my eyes are bigger than my stomach. Let’s see how all of this goes. Wish me luck!
