QBillion

Posted on December 7th, 2014 by Hitstun

From my pile of forgotten Game Boy carts comes QBillion. You have a top-down view of stacks of boxes. The goal is to reduce these boxes to a single flat layer. Once you wrap your head around that, it’s intuitive, but the puzzles get downright fiendish. 15 years later, the developer is gone, the copyright […]

Marcokarty’s International Superstar Soccer Deluxe TAS

This adds to his playlist of metal on instruments that aren’t metal with the description “If I wasn’t going to play Slayer on my banjo then what did I buy it for?” Source: Slayer – Angel of Death (Banjo cover w/ […]
