Future Proof Plays: Mask of the Rose - 2023/07/01


I'm a huuuuuge fan of Failbetter's games and have played Fallen London on and off for over a decade, so I've been excited as hell about Mask of the Rose since it was first announced. It's as good as I hoped (I've played a bunch since this stream) and it's gotten me back into Fallen London heavily.

Future Proof Plays: Strange Horticulture


I absolutely adored this game. I finished two endings the same weekend as this stream. If you aren't in the mood to play in real dirt, why not instead play in virtual dirt while unraveling the inner workings of a coven and a cult? 🤷🏾‍♀️

Future Proof Plays: Samorost 3


I don't know why I didn't turn on the lamp in front of me so that I'm not shrouded in shadow the entire stream. 😂 One of the things I loved about this game is that I felt very able to be patient in figuring things out on stream. I often feel like I need to keep moving at a certain pace, but this stunningly gorgeous game encouraged me to take my time.

Future Proof Plays: Frog Detectives 1 and 2


What delightful games. I finished the second one off-stream maybe later that day. 😁

Future Proof Plays: Wildermyth - 2022/09/04


This game is friggin'cool. Generating cohesive narrative for random characters in a tactical RPG across multiple generations is no small task, and the system they're using under the hood is clever. I've played a few hours of it since this stream, and some of the story beats it comes up with are haunting, especially a fetch/double moment with a character who had already been through Some Shit.

Future Proof Plays: Astrologaster - 2022/07/03


The art style of this game is outstanding! The pop-up book look is done so well. I'll eventually play more of this. I think it'll run its course in a few hours of play, but that's still a good run.

(Unfortunately, this is another video with crappy audio quality.)

Future Proof Plays: Kentucky Route Zero - 2022/01/15


KRZ is an indie classic that I'd never played. I found it to be utterly charming! While yes, subtlety is for cowards, I don't necessarily want a work to resolve every tension it sets up.
