I have no computer and I must post

My birfday present was a nice fast SSD to put games on and which we could install ourselves in a flash!

Yeah. No. Computer’s at the shop. Might get it back tomorrow. All my stuff is on it, including the old stuff I’ve been posting. So – hello!

I did play the cat game through during the break. It was beautiful and sweet. And weird. (Fair warning, it hurts the cat a couple of times in unavoidable cut scenes).

Also, I did something I’ve never, ever done. I take a tiny sliver of pride playing games through on normal difficulty, old lady though I be. Not resorting to easy or – god forbid! – story mode. What do I look like, a games journalist?

But I gave up and downloaded a cheat trainer for this. That’s what they call them now – cheat trainers. Kitty has to run through swarms of little parasitic creatures and I got sick of hearing him get jumped, scream and die.

Insult to injury, I watched other people play through on YouTube and they had no problem zig-zagging and avoiding trouble. I suck under pressure.

Now, to top it off, I miss the little cat and feel really sad about it. Stupid monkeybrain. Nothing for it but to play through again. When I get my computer back.

Poor kitty!…I would play easy mode just to get him to safety 🙂

There aren’t difficulty levels, which is why I had to cheat.

Spoiler! He default gets to safety. Then he just walks off. Like, come back, little kitty!

As well you should! Who the hell makes video games with parasite-jumped screaming and dying cats? Frederick Baker III?

The worst thing that should happen to a kitty in a video game is to be owned by someone who doesn’t do knuckle rubs.

There’s actually a switch in the graphics settings called “show dead cats”. NO! NONONONO! NO SHOW DEAD CATS!!

An anagram of “show dead cats” is What Ass Coded?

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
