Welcome to the World of Tomorrow
It is now – officially – a brand new year. I was starting to think that we’d never get here. I sincerely hope 2021 brings you much joy, success, and happiness. Do err on the side of caution, however. The date is merely a number, after all, and we are not suddenly auto-immune from the myriad problems that troubled the planet over the course of 2020. There is definitely hope ahead, and that’s beautiful, but stay safe and be wary of falling into the “New Year = No Problems” mentality that some have chosen.
This week has seen me smashing through a selection of games new and old, in-between bouts of grumbling onto the scales and feeling blue about what the festive week has done to my waistline. I’ve been barrelling through the run ‘n’ jump chaos of Super Meat Boy Forever, (of which you can expect a review very soon indeed), while also chipping away at a 100% completion rate in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. The latter has seduced me with secret protagonist Bloodless, however, who now has me gallivanting around Hellhold Castle all over again. Curse her and her adorable guillotine parasol.
Anywhoo, I gotta get back to work. It’s a new year and there is much to do. But thank you, as always, for taking the time to stop by. Be sure to dive into the comments and share with us the video games that are ringing in the new year for you. Whether you’re picking through your backlog, playing some newly acquired releases, or just chilling with familiar favorites, fill us in on the action. We always, always enjoy hearing all about it.
Have a safe and pleasant weekend, from all of us at Destructoid.
