@sorteddan gz m8. That one is also on my list. I'm doing a few more relaxed short games in between at the moment since I'm pretty busy with physical labor in and around the house what I'm not used to since I have an office job so I'm to tired to play action games at the moment haha

Lol, Great. Now I have that song stuck in my head for the rest of the day.

#6 Lost Words Beyond the Page. A narrative platform adventure. Partially you do a bit of basic platforming in a journal and partially in a 2s side scrolling environment. You get words which can help you during the platforming like the word break which can help you open up passages which are otherwise blocked. Although it's pretty original it's pretty basic and never challenging, but that's totally fine. Because of the recognizable emotional story in the game it all gives a very relaxing atmosphere, exactly what I was looking for. So I would recommend it to anyone just looking for a relaxing and easy game with a good story. It's available on Ps plus for the people who have that and want to try it out

@Lavalera
Nice. Keep this up and I will think about recommending you for your Junior Trophy Hunter badge 😉
You seem to be racking them up recently, be careful - it can be addictive!
As for PS+ I only upgraded to extra so I could play Ghost of Tsushima on the cheap... Since then I have started, completed and got platinum on three other games, I'm easily distracted!

@sorteddan haha yeah I would love that junior trophy hunter trophy I do have 3 weeks off from work so all the time in the world for gaming now and decided to do a few short games in between. After this I'll go back to playing some longer games as well and then the pace will go drastically down, but that's fine.

Congrats @Lavalera, sounds like you’ll be on double digits before you know it what with those three weeks off, enjoy.

I came, I saw, I blew stuff up for #46 - Resogun. That 1CC trophy to play through arcade mode on experienced difficulty without losing all lives ended up being one tough cookie. I almost did it on the first try and then couldn't get near it again for what seems like a week 😅

Well done @render, I had a brief blast on this a few months ago and thought it was great tbh… don’t be surprised if I drop you a message for some advice on this one 😉

@colonelkilgore Cheers man, it's a really great game. So addictive and just plays so well, you can see that some of that filtered into Returnal - in fact a few of the sound effects are identical. There's still loads of the game to play such as survival mode which has it's own trophies so I might see about doing those at some point but I'm tempted to get back to Nex Machina first.

Happy to give any advice on Resogun if you ever need it but I reckon with your skills you'll make a lot easier work of it than I did 😀

@render
Good work. Sounds like you had fun with it.
Strangely it's one of the Housemarque games I've never gotten around to, may have to rectify that.

@RogerRoger @sorteddan Cheers guys 👍

Yeah the big five-oh, you know I've not really thought about it. I tend to just play what I feel like at that particular time so really it might be a last minute decision when it comes round to it. It would be nice to play that milestone out though so I'll perhaps try and get some ducks in order and announce it at some point 😁

@render ahh your too kind mate. The one (the initial one anyway) that I was struggling to understand was the trophy in regards to saving all humans. I only had a brief go on the game but I always seemed to have no idea when a human would be released from their… erm… box… and when they did end up being released, I’d be too far away to prevent them from being killed.

I’m sure that I was missing something really simple but have no idea what? 🤷‍♂️

@colonelkilgore Yeah I get you as I had a similar problem. On going back to the game I realised that I'd also forgotten quite how that mechanic worked and it took me a while before I realised where I was going wrong.

The "keepers" that have trapped your humans can be many different types of enemies. In a lot of cases they are on rails and you will see the faint outline of a track that a train of these cog like enemies will appear on. They also have a glowing green outline to further enhance their keeperiness(?). Those on rail ones are effectively fixed in a specific area of the game space and will usually spawn very near to where you are currently, unless that is you are in a panic and you are moving a lot which makes it a lot harder. Generally as long as you don't move too far away from your position when you hear the keeper message you will see them.

The ones that are tricker to find are the ones not on rails. They can be many different types from the smaller faster moving ships to ground based ones to the much bigger spinning ships you get in later levels. Sometimes they can come from right round the map so you might have to start looking around for those if you don't see them straight away. To further complicate things some groups need shooting in order and you will see only one in green to start with, the others will be in red and change to green once you've destroyed the first. Basically the best thing to do is just play the levels in rookie mode so you will get used to where they come from and if you miss one just restart the level as they are quite quick to play through on that mode.

For the difficultly related trophies you don't need to save all the humans but there are certain ones that are advantageous to do so as they will help your run e.g. extra lives and bombs. Those are always the same in the sequence though so on some levels might be the last 2, some might be 2 and 5 etc. Generally the rule of thumb is to only save them if you aren't putting yourself in danger as even on my experienced run last night I made the stupid decision to try and save a human I knew would give me an extra life only to go and lose my current life along with the human I was saving 🤦‍♂️

@ThereThere Cheers 👍

@render brill, cheers for the in-depth explanation. It doesn’t make total sense to me right now… but I have a feeling that it will after I’ve re-dipped my toe 😉

@render gz on the new shiny!

@colonelkilgore @ThereThere thanks guys.

I got #7 yesterday as well. Another really short but excellent one What remains of Edith Finch. Brilliant game. Now I'm working on concrete genie and Doki Doki literature club. Trying to complete them before Stray which I want as nr 10 and then I'm going to calm down a bit with longer games again haha

@Lavalera congrats on What Remains of Edith Finch… I always heard it was one of those games that didn’t have a plat 🤔… might have to add this to the list 😉

@render thanks m8!
@colonelkilgore thanks m8! It does have one but it isn't that hard it's only 9 trophies total which most I has to get by doing chapter select after the game. It's a pretty fast one with 3 hours or something for the plat but well worth it.

@ThereThere I know right, it's so well made and even though it's short all the parts were well crafted and all stories felt different but connected. The part were I didn't get enough from was the part with the rubber duckies, felt like a little child again somehow haha.
