There were initially 4 games on the list in total, but I lobbied for a fifth to make the 8th place guy still have a choice. I hope something good is left, but Chase HQ is the only one from the list that I've even heard of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a lot to do my friends! It starts this Sunday as far as I know. I was actually counting on you being busy so I'd have a better chance!

As long as I'm not picking between the puzzle game and the shooter if I end up playing skinny. I don't want to have to pick the puzzle game because I know he's as bad or worse at them than I am.

Also, a 60 hour week is pretty inhuman. Seems like a poor life decision. Id rather park a motorcycle in my kitchen. Hope you are getting a fat OT rate for the extra hours.

BeaIank | 1,621 Events Team · Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 PMs with the tournaments invitations will be sent to the top 16 tomorrow and to the 8 that form the top 24 to cover any players from the top 16 that don't accept the invitation.

Well, Pooyan is a fun little arcade game (NOT a shooter, don't let the tag fool you). Challenger seems to be more of a top down action game with some platforming segments rather than a platformer. Little Ninja Hattori is a fun, albeit archaic, action game that I'd recommend checking out. Even Keroppi seems like it'd be kinda fun. Really, the only game I couldn't give a crap about is Chase HQ. Any of the others I'd at least feel is fun enough to enjoy playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docile tapeworm | 4,198 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I played pooyan on my everdrive for like 30 seconds, said “wtf is this crap” and shut it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the same at first, but if you take a few minutes to figure out scoring system, seems like it would be a lot of fun for high score contest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
