But let's get the highlights, I guess.
33:44
Yeah.
33:45
[laughs] Weirdly, today was my most packed day.
33:48
I started off at 10:00 AM with one of the hardest Soulslikes I've ever played, which was Valor Mortis.
33:54
Uh, but it was very cool.
33:56
It's a Soulslike set around the Battle of Waterloo, but Napoleon won this time.

Blood Dungeon
39:58
... vampire survivors type game, but I would wager it is even weirder, and I quite liked it a lot.
26:50
Okay.
26:50
So, and there's a lot of narrative as well.
26:52
Uh, and there's gonna be three characters at the start, and they'll all sort of have their own narratives in the way that they interact with the characters that you meet, and the random events that can happen on each run.
27:02
So that one's really interesting.
27:04
I wish I had gotten more time with that one to go through the map and maybe get to a boss fight or something.
27:09
I also got demolished by just a, a fridge.
Si WhiteHOST
30:43
Right, yeah.
30:44
But I know it started with four, and I think they've said there will be seven at launch, I wanna say, and they wanna add more.
Si WhiteHOST
13:59
Tell us anything to talk about.
14:00
It's, it's like I'm... 90% of what I'm doing here is, like, really indie stuff, but I, I know it's only the first day, but Mr.
14:07
Records is my favorite game I've played at SPF-
14:19
Yeah, I, uh, know it.
14:19
Where they ask you for recommendations of what records to buy.
14:23
But then the other half of it is you go into the songs.
20:57
Mm.
20:57
'Cause I also want time to...
20:59
Each day you can visit them and give them gifts, like food and clothes, and that'll level them up.
21:07
Um, and when you level them up, you can do cool stuff, like give them little quirks to make them maybe more like the person that they're based on.
21:14
Like, give them-
25:57
Mm-hmm
25:57
... which was really sick.
25:59
Um, but yeah, there's tons of customization like that where you can be unlocking, like, different foliage and different paths and, and everything like that.
