The Harris/Walz Campaign Fortnite Map

In case you didn't catch the news, and it feels like it wasn't exactly, "big news", the Harris/Walz campaign has launched a Fortnite map as part of their effort to promote the Presidential campaign.  This was met with many people asking why they would try to market to a bunch of kids, which was met with the appropriate response that, there are plenty of voting age adults who play Fortnite, and the game is old enough that a lot of people who started as kids, are also old enough to vote. It's still kind of debatable if this map will…

Sky: CotL – Season of Moomin

It's time for a new season in Sky: Children of the Light.  This is another tie in season like the Season of the Little Prince and Season of Aurora.  This time around the world of Moomin and Moominvalley with the Season of Moomin. So, in case you are like me, and in the US and (probably) a bit confused as to what a Moomin is, I figure a bit of a brief description is probably in order.  I've only barely heard of this property at all, and only recently a few months ago when I saw an add for some…

Fortnite Festival

I kind of really rejected Fortnite Festival, the music mode, when it was launched last year. Which feels kind of surprising because I really like Rhythm games and am a huge DDR fan. I never was super into Rock Band though, and Fortnite Festival.is basically the latest iteration of Rock and, it's just, built into Fortnite. Harmonix, makers of Rock Band, was bought by Epic and folded in to create this game mode. Anyway, I have decided to give it another try lately and it's not that bad. It's not DDR, but it sort of scratches that itch. It doesn't…

Fortnite Mobile

I've shifted back to Fortnite from Overwatch,   Maybe.  Probably.  Anyway, the newest Fortnite Season is a pretty sweet Marvel themed season with a Marvel BP, which is way more exciting than the upcoming Overwatch BP, which is, kind of hodge-podgey, sort of Ancient Egypt? Also, no Venture Skin for like 3 more seasons.  What the fuck Blizzard? AnywayI'm not really here to discuss Overwatch or the Marvel season of Fortnite.  What also dropped this season is the return of Fortnite Mobile.  Currently available in the EU on iPhones and on Android Phones anywhere, through the Epic Launcher.  This is key,…

Sky Children of the Light 5th Anniversary

With the 5th Anniversary even now closed out, I wanted to take a moment to share some random shots and comments on the various activities. I didn't spend as much time in the game doing things as I feel like I should have, but also, it was a bit chaotic, which kind of feels like a regular problem for some of these events. I did not realize until last minute that the portals took you to the special gallery areas. I think for the most part, I managed to catch everything at least once. There were the two wireframe galleries,…
