<p>finished playing <a href="https://eggplant.place/search?r=1&q=https://eggplant.place/game/7WAv4WX53DiE3ujbA28Yk3" rel="nofollow">8Doors: Arum's Afterlife Adventure</a> 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 <br>As a <a href="/tags/metroidvania/" rel="tag">#metroidvania</a>, it works decent, and though it is a tad linear, being a <a href="/tags/soulslike/" rel="tag">#soulslike</a> hides that decently.</p><p>Combat and exploration can be a bit clunky, but the clunkiness doesn't get in the way too often.</p><p>Music is mostly ambient but fits quite well.</p><p>Art feels quite fitting, somber as expected from a metroidvania, but not as oppressive as they usually are. Also the style fits quite well also the folklore/myth line the game goes for.</p><p>Story works but better to not say much else I risk spoiling things.</p><p>Feels like a solid 7/10!</p><p>Also, NeoDB doesn't track entries there yet, so to those interested, <a href="/tags/8doors/" rel="tag">#8Doors</a> is on <a href="/tags/gog/" rel="tag">#GOG</a> too.<br></p>

Nintendo really needs to add achievements/trophies to their platform. Other gaming platforms have had it forever.<br><br><p>2005 - Xbox Gamescore<br>2007 - Steam Achievements<br>2008 - Playstation Trophies<br>2025 - GOG Achievements</p>I like achievements because it gives me something to play towards -- and it gives me something to look back on to see what I was playing and what I did in a game.<br><br>Nintendo not having achievements discourages me from playing games on their platform if a game is available elsewhere.<br><br><a href="/tags/gaming/" rel="tag">#gaming</a> <a href="/tags/videogames/" rel="tag">#videogames</a> <a href="/tags/nintendo/" rel="tag">#nintendo</a> <a href="/tags/playstation/" rel="tag">#playstation</a> <a href="/tags/xbox/" rel="tag">#xbox</a> <a href="/tags/steam/" rel="tag">#steam</a> <a href="/tags/gog/" rel="tag">#gog</a><br>
