some are the melody and some are the beat

We’ve reached the beginning of July—the halfway point of the year—and so I wanted to do a check-in on my progress towards my 10 in 2025 gaming goal for this year.

( beneath the cut )

As for what’s next… I haven’t actually done much gaming since I beat Star Ocean 01, oops. And Battleship is starting soon, so I don’t foresee too much gaming in the near future… That being said, I feel like I’m in the mood for visual novels, so maybe Evermore soon? Alternatively, I could replay Cinderella Phenomenon again and then once again fail to pick up Evermore afterwards. Though if I do play Evermore, I will have one game crossed off from each category on this list, which would feel satisfying... I’ve also been craving the short indie game experience, since it’s been a minute since I last played one of those, so I might take a short break from this list to play one or two of those instead. We’ll see!
