Getting to the *Seriously Hairy* part of Atomfall now, heading into the Windscale facility. The mysterious voice on the telephone unexpectedly reveals itself to be a They Might Be Giants fan.
Minor adjustments to the previous version. Including a bit of tweaking of the lettering, and the all important hat update.

Had another go at Atomfall and made some progress, which is satisfying. Then I decided to head back to the army captain and tell him what I had discovered. The conversation went roughly like this:
Me: Hey Cap, just back from that dangerous mission you wanted me to do!
Captain: Were you responsible for the mass prison break and our key prisoner getting away?
Me: …Yes?
Captain: Guards!
*muffled gunshots* *sound of me diving into a flowerbed as all hell breaks loose*
So, I might have not made quite such great progress after all. Hey ho.
B.A.R.D. For Life! poster.
Decided on the shade of the background colour by thinking about how fading and dirt might have altered the ingame poster I used as reference over time.

Just finished #Atomfall
It was refreshing to play a short RPG in a small world giving you a clear sense of how far you are from the end. The ending was underwhelming, though. I don't mind slideshows but you don't learn about the NPCs you dealt with. That's a shame because they were interesting. The game was bug free and original, not a Fallout/Stalker ripoff at all. It had fresh design ideas but didn't deliver an AAA experience. Overall I enjoyed my 12 hours with the game.

… #atomfall Over 5 hours in, I’ve mostly been exploring rather than charging into situations. Spent a lot of time wandering the woods area. Answered some telephone calls. Saved this evening before opening one of the doors to the mysterious “key area”.
I like the graphics and sound design, and it feels pretty nice, but also relatively empty (probably appropriate given the situational setting; and I’ve been actively avoiding people for the most part).
Favourite moment of #atomfall so far (while watching my partner play).
Enemy NPC runs up shouting threateningly, "Time to bleed."
Partner shoots them.
They exclaim, "Help! I'm bleeding!"
Don't play a great many computer games these days, but having learned that I can use a cloud-based gaming service that avoids the need to buy a more modern computer I've been giving Atomfall a go.
Great fun on the whole, although today I found my long covid symptoms were really getting in the way. I had to get an Xbox controller to use the games, not a joystick I'm familiar with, and there was too much confusion in trying to remember which of the many, many buttons did what. Yesterday went far more smoothly, so I know it's not purely down to me being distinctly sub-mediocre at these games. Packed up for the day after I lost count of how many times I'd been trounced by outlaws.
I do need to read the instructions again, though, as I'm discovering functions I'd missed. For instance, it turns out that my character can throw knives and similar weapons. I discovered this when facing an outlaw, as I pressed something and watched as Our Hero tossed the knife—the knife he was trying to fend off an attacker with—into some dense shrubbery, thus neatly disarming himself.
Si #Atomfall n'est pas du tout le jeu qu'attendait @Zali_Falcam, cela ne l'a pas empêché de passer un excellent moment sur ce titre pas comme les autres :
