Putting this in place of @GuyWTriangle@hexbear.net 's weekly thread since it’s Wednesday so it’s late! Title, what are you playing this week?

Made a 3x3 of what I’m currently messing around with to make it easier.

    After Portal 2 I started up Quantum Conundrum and remembered real quick that the game can be annoying. A lot of the puzzles feel like chores and aren’t really fun.

    I’m in shutdown/waiting mode so Instead of being functional, I hopped back on X4 and let it idle a bit to work on my substrate factory and then did some stuff on the PHQ. Got attacked by a pirate and he nuked my shields before I realized what was going on since I was tabbed out browsing Hexbear. My pilot flew to an adjacent sector before I could get blow it up so that was cool. 60k in repairs.

          While not as good as reloaded, Portal Revolution is still worth playing if you haven’t.

          There are also some phenomenal (extremely difficult) portal 2 co-op workshop level series that I had a great time playing through with a friend. I can dig those up if you’re intetested

            Wait, I got the two mixed up. I played Revolution recently. Reloaded is the green time travel portal one. Sorry about that.

            I have Reloaded, Aperture Tag, Mel, and Thinking with Time Machine lined up for when I finish Quantum Conundrum. I also have Rexaura which is a Portal 1 mod but I can’t get into it.

            My current Portal co-op partner is 7 and it was a test of my patience playing the original campaign with him. I think we need to wait a bit for the harder workshop levels lol.

              Add Qube and Qube 2 if you’re looking for more. They’re about QC quality for comparison.

              Also yes I would not head the workshop with a 7 year old but I hope he he’s able to carry you in the future!

                You keep this up and you are gonna be my new best friend. I have Qube 1 but haven’t gotten around to buying 2 yet.

                Co-op was mostly frustrating because he was goofing around but also he was using a PS5 controller and kept hitting the touchpad. I donno why but since it was set as mouse, it was acting as movement on my screen and not his. I tried to disable it but couldn’t figure it out. It was still fun though and we got through the main original content(not the new Course 6) and had some bonding time.
