Arg, I was hoping to avoid having to move things around, but there's no other way to make some recent games fit.

Hooray! I've passed my goal of 75%. Everything I do now is just a bonus.

More creative category fits.

16. Beat a rhythm game
Firebugs
I've exchanged this genre for Racing as I play a lot more of those.

8. Beat a spin-off or a game that rebooted a franchise

36/52

CyClones

22. Beat a fighting game

And so begins the creativity where it comes to making games fit! I don't play Fighting games, so ROTT with some melee weapons and optional fist attacks, will have to do.

Hexen: Deathkings of the Dark Citadel

Gradually getting through the FPS playlist. This one was TOUGH!

Near the end they have a moment under the Highwind, it fades to black, and then Tifa is embarassed that the crew watched them during. The game doesn't explicitly state that they banged, but the implication is pretty clear.

And a thousand man-children burst into tears at her no longer being "pure".

No. I don't need validation from people around me.

It should be the easiest memorial in the world. Copy this and then dedicate it to all the victims on the plinth at the bottom.

Surely that's a perma-ban offence on any board. Why wasn't it in this case?

None of the above. I might double down in my OP points in a reply just in case I explained it badly first time around, otherwise just leave it.

43. Beat a game based on licensed stories/characters
Underworld: The Eternal War

Based on and featuring the first Underworld movie + characters.

This painting always simultaneously intrigued me and creeped me out. The otherworldliness is uncanny. Then you have some interesting things going on. Like the baby pointing, the repeating orb shapes, odd choices of color, a porcelain smoothness, or the one random angel looking straight at you. I also really like the subtle ghostly, almost completely invisible, veil that is around the pair.

I'm more intrigued by the wacky boob-spacing. As if the artist has never seen any in the flesh before, let alone what they're supposed to do when carrying and then feeding an infant.

They both look like they're packing sausages downstairs.

50-52. Beat three games in a series
Heretic
Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders
Hexen: Beyond Heretic

4. Beat a game released between 2013-2022
Agent A: A Puzzle in Disguise

I was concerned about the 3-in-a-series challenge. I originally was going to use the three games included in Die Hard Trilogy on PS1. But then I got stuck in Die Hard 2 which put paid to that idea. Heretic/Hexen has been in my backlog for many years!

I've still got the problem of the trope challenge, there are games I own in the couple that I saved at the start of the year, but most of them are long-winded games and I'm yet to be in the mood to start any of them!

Anyway. 29/52

29. Beat a game with comedy as a central theme
Four Last Things

9. Beat a remake or enhanced port
Wonderputt Forever

(It's technically not a remake, but is a "full" version of an old Flash game so I'm counting it)

25/52

37. Beat a game you'd dropped or had a long hold on
Alien Breed: Descent (Started in 2019)

25. Beat a game with horror as a central theme
Clive Barker's Undying

23/52

I could tell immediately why I'd dropped AB; it's more of the same as the previous 2 games, but more infuriating. Now I never have to play it again, yay!

13. Beat a game made by an indie developer
IS Defense

26. Beat a game with revenge as a central theme
Retro City Rampage DX

I moved Starhawk to 32 so that I could use 26 for something else.

The site must've moved some forums around as the tracking switched off by itself.
It took me a while to find the Contests board again.
