In case any of you missed my constant flaunting in the RPF, I have a game review blog, Grizzly Pixel, that reviews indie games and interviews devs, musicians and artists. I created this thread so that I'm not constantly mucking up the RPF with updates and stuff. I'll be posting any updates I happen to have up here, but for now, I'll just give you a list of the current reviews and posts.

Part 1
Review: Runman: Race Around the World

Review: Knytt Stories
Review: Yume Nikki
Newcomer: BabbityRabbity

Each post is only allowed to have 10 URLs. Seems pretty silly to me, honestly.

Also: New post!

It's quite the interesting one, I assure you.

I've been playing the heck out of Minecraft after buying it recently

I showed it to a couple of my friends and they both bought it overnight

One of them set up a server and we can't stop playing. We recently found a huge Diamond deposit and crafted a buttload of Diamond tools. So today I made a giant Sandcastle :3

Your review of it is brilliant, and gets across the key elements of the game. Nice job Grizzly Pixel, again :D

Not my review, actually. That was Superyoshi's.

I'm still working on a big bundle of reviews to post for next week to make up for all of this time that I haven't updated.

A conclusion to a certain series of reviews by a certain cowriter.

Beau does make some pretty awesome games, however for some reason they tend to run very slow at times for me. In Action Fist the one level where you are racing to get on the rockets moves SO SLOW it is unbelievable, and it really the only part of the game in which it is slowdowned. In Shoot First, the menus and such run fine, however the actually game runs much slower than it is suppose to, and makes trying to travel around not fun due to how long it takes with the slower speed. Not too sure why they are like this, as pretty much every other game on my computer runs fine, just with Beau's games do they tend to face massive slowdowns. I guess my computer just doesn't like his games. :(

Really? Have you ever tried scaling it down by pressing F4?

Yep. No matter what the size, Shoot First runs sluggishly and Action Fist faces massive slowdown on the race to the rocket level.
