so I kinda spent a good chunk of today hanging out with the beastieball speedrun folks and there's actually a route for each of the starters now and it's not super clear which one's going to be fastest

I'm hoping they wind up close to each other time-wise so it can come down to preference :P

this is bongus

please appreciate bongus

I thought this was kind of a fun lil chart to make.

Dark gray lines are rivals, lighter gray is partners, light pink is besties, and darker pink is sweethearts.

Numbered lines were relationships that changed throughout the journey and their changes are directly stated because I thought the changes were interesting.

(Yes I'm still a little torn up about my boldur and bandicraft going from lovers to rivals. :P)

These Beasties Be Ballin'

(It's more Beastieball)

the balling is now

auuugh I'm too anxious about beastieball dropping in like an hour so I'm gonna play like 40 minutes of UFO 50 while I wait for it to come out before we swap to beastieball lmao

Beastieball early access drops today at around 10 AM pacific time, approximately 5 hours from this post.

I'm absolutely going to binge the hell out of it on stream for today and likely tomorrow.

I'm still a bit torn between whether I wanna resume the file that I was using during the playtest or if I wanna start a completely fresh file.

Resuming my playtest file would let me see the specific beasties I got really attached to during the playtest again and resume the story from where I left off, but I'd probably be a bit overleveled for a lot of things? But similarly, I wouldn't really have to grind at all or retrace things I've already done.

Starting over would let the stream stand a bit better on its own and give me the "new player" experience so I could see what it's like to have the full game without all the area restrictions the playtests had. It'd also make for a more coherent vod on the off chance that someone wanted to just watch that.

hot damn beastieball early access drops tomorrow and I'm definitely in that "wow this thing I've been waiting for is finally just about here" state lol

Back on that campanella 2 grind before beastieball comes out

Back on that Campanella 2 grind, and maybe some other shenanigans

urrrgh I should get up and get coffee and breakfast but also I'm comfortable right now

playing a bunch of campanella 2 kind of reminded me of one of the joys of speedrunning

having a bunch of runs start to blend together and you start forgetting what happened in this run or what happened in the last run

and then you make a decision based off something you had happening last run and fall to your doom and have nobody to blame but your short term memory lmao

Hey guess who's addicted to Campanella 2 again lmao
