#GamerKid has a girl in his 5th grade class with a crush on him

I'm not surprised - he's a sweet, good-looking kid (like his dad)

And completely oblivious (like his dad)

And I am doing my best to wingman for her without giving the game away

#GamerKid was correct when he said #YapYap was "Content Warning in a fantasy universe"

What I did not expect was a magic wand whose signature spell was spraying out pee

YapYapとは、魔導師となり、ライバルの塔を荒らすために最大5人の友だちを手下として召喚する魔法協力型ホラーゲームだ。様々な呪文を唱え、塔を守る魔獣やモンスターを避けつつ破壊目標を達成せよ。

#GamerKid is playing #YapYap , a co-op fantasy game where you use spells to cause mischief.

To call the spells, though, you have to *say* them

So I just keep hearing him call "Updog! Updog!" from the other room

And I'm afraid to ask what that means

Had a great weekend for gaming!

- #GamerKid and I *finally* beat the main progression in This Means Warp! (On easy mode, but that still counts - it had been kicking our butts up until yesterday!)
- I also completed Tangaroa in #Raft ! This was honestly my favorite island so far - intuitive but challenging, and an outstanding moment in the game's world-building. Two more islands to go!

And of course, some other great sessions with both kids playing #Minecraft and #BoomerangFu .

Now - time to plan next weekend's activities 😀

#ThisMeansWarp

#GamerKid recently got MyVoiceZoo, an idler where you wander around a zoo - but you get to make the noises for all of the animals. The more you wander around and trigger their sounds, the more in-game money you make.

GK has apparently decided that all of his animals sound like Djent metal vocalists

The racket coming from his computer is unreal 😂

MyVoiceZoo on Steam

My Voice Zoo is a unique idle zoo game brought to life with your own voice. Record your sounds through the microphone and turn them into animal calls, creating a one-of-a-kind zoo found nowhere else. Start building your very own zoo, complete only with your voice!

My first 3D prints!

The boat is the test pattern that came with the machine.

When deciding on our next prints, the boys and I landed on gifts for their grandmother for Valentine's Day. #GamerKid liked the heart with gears toy , and #LilGamer picked a heart-shaped box that I can hopefully show tomorrow.

Needless to say, both kids are super pumped about the system, and they can't stop talking about what to make next ❤️

#3DPrinting

*making #GamerKid obsessed with Satisfactory so I can introduce him to The Theory of Constraints*

I thought my Santa opsec was pretty good

Then I found out tonight that #GamerKid has been tracking *the specific wrapping paper* used by Santa over the last few years

And now I'm like "oh god was there something I missed" 😬

Just got to share with #GamerKid that half of a computer byte is called a "nibble"

And, whew - as a connoisseur of dad jokes, that one felt great
