Emily Wants to Play and So do I

Hello and welcome today we are going to talk about a game that I livestreamed recently, Emily wants to play. It´s an indie horror survival game made by Shawn Hitchcock who drew on his fear´s and ended up with a game that is outright horrifying. Emily, is a ghost of a mentally unstable little girl, and she´s the main antagonist who will go after you to kill you. Your goal is to survive as long as possible so, you can collect different objects and tapes which are hidden around the house. It´s truly a great jump scare game, but fair warning it´s a game that will have you screaming literally every ten minutes. While I was playing this game I was amazed that it was made by one man and what's even cooler is that Shawn is making a sequel simply called Emily wants to Play 2 which will be released sometime this year, can I say hyped? 

 I can´t wait to see the next game because I am truly enjoying the first and I hope you will continue getting scared with me on future livestreams of this and other games. And tell me are you as excited as I am about the next game? Leave a comment down below and let me know.

My thoughts on Pac-man 256

So seriously I have a strong addiction to Pac-Man. Pac-Man was the first video game I ever played as a kid I started playing it when I was 5 in an old movie theater that my family used to go to a lot and I still have fond memories of going to see movies and playing Pac-Man. It's something that was always in the backdrop of my childhood weather I was playing it in that old movie theater or with friends at the pinball museum or in an old ice cream shop it was a game that just always was there. And to this day whenever I hear the Pac-Man music I just can´t help but smile.

Coming out of the nostalgia a bit there´s a new or rather newish Pac-Man game out that's available for ps4, Xbox, android and desktop, called Pac-Man 265 and I'm addicted to it. It's basically your same old Pac-Man board but it goes on forever until you die. But with practice that one life is all you'll need to beat that elusive high score. 

In this game you get a ton of ghost. You have the original ghost, Blinky (red), Pinky (pink), Inky (blue) and Clyde (orange) but also you get Spunky (Grey), Sue (purple), and Funky (green) and Glitchy (Changes color). And each of these ghost have different patterns and mannerisms. Blinky will go after the player. Pinky will go either vertically or horizontally to chase the player. Clyde will keep going down to the bottom of the board and Inky just circles a certain part of the map while Sue will move slowly in a horizontal line to try and keep the player from progressing. Now Sue is maybe the easiest to deal with simplest and slowest pacman ghost you´ll deal with in the game and then there's Spunky who will wake up and chase the player for a few seconds until falling asleep and I can tell you Spunky is maybe the worst out of all of the ghost because of the fact that he´s grey he blends in really well with the black background.

Then there´s maybe the most exciting aspect of this game are the power up, all of which you can unlock different levels for by simply collecting the gold or orange coins as you can find while you're playing. (Here are the many different power ups you can unlock. There are over 20 different powerups my personal favorites are the Cherry power up where you creates a radius around Pac-Man that turns ghosts into cherries and the Giant Pac-man power up which makes pac man grow and enables you to squash enemy ghost.
