Hi, I'm the Italian Skeleton, just a guy that likes to talk about #retrogames and #indiegames; I make #video content on #YouTube related to #gaming and #videogames
Check it out:

I only had 15 minutes, but #SprawlZero seems to be a hotpot of several games: a bit of Halo, a bit of Half-life, a bit of Killzone, a bit of F.E.A.R, possibly a bit of Crysis ... which considering this game is aiming for that kind of games, including the decadent urban zone, I say, I'm impressed, and I will watch the development with great interest
Mini rounds for this #Steam #NextFest something that caught my eye is #HullRupture which seems to be a game with several influences: it's part Dungeon Keeper, part Tower Defense, part rogue-lite, and part FTL, though without a chasing flotilla
Seems to be an entry of an aspiring franchise maker, other games by the same authors share the graphics and setting, I don't think I am going to follow the development, but I wish them luck regardless
I always found the ending of #TalesOfMonkeyIsland slightly rushed, even though the ending climax was just right, having Guybrush being immediately brought back using Elaine's ring felt like a missed opportunity, I can totally imagine a 6th episode focusing on 2 POVs: one for Guybrush as he hides in the spirit world from the wrath of LeChuck, and another for Elaine as she begrudgingly follows the advice of the Voodoo Lady
I'm reaching the end of #TalesofMonkeyIsland so of course since it's reaching the narrative apex it got very light on the jokes, naturally focusing more on the drama, still the puzzles and references keep up the atmosphere, this one where you have to combine both an insult and a compliment is charming
"Ma, the Frenchman is doing weird noises again..."

My hunger for comedy games does not stop, so for my next game I am going back to #TalesOfMonkeyIsland this is a great contrast to the style of comedy Hector has
With the threat eliminated, #hectorbadgeofcarnage is finished, this #pointandclick is in the same mental space as Postal 2, highly enjoyable for those who seek a comedy full of crass, toilet and profane humour
Still my favourite gag from the game all those years later: the shish kebab mobile, containing mostly beef
