I think I’ve reached the end of the internet.

Playing Metroid Prime Remastered in casual and wasting missiles to show my children Samus Aran’s reflection is peak gaming.

My latest obsession is incremental games, a type of idle game where simple actions are performed to earn rewards, which can then be invested to earn rewards faster. The goal is to incrementally increase income or an asset (money, computing power, paperclips, potatoes) to progress and the gameplay includes upgrades and power-ups. I especially enjoy story-driven games, games that simulate computer work, and games that have a simple GUI.

My favorites, so far, are Skynet Simulator, Universal Paperclips, and SPACEPLAN. Games I’m trying to get in to include A Dark Room, Candy Box, Crank, Bitburner, Idle Loops, The Barnacle Goose Experiment, and Increlution.

There’s a gallery for incremental games, an ultimate list, and a guide on how to build an incremental game.

These biblically accurate angels by Jonas Pfeiffer are terrifying.

The Cherub, Ezekiel 1: 4-14, with the face of a man, the face of a lion, the face of an ox, and the face of an eagle. Be not afraid.
_{⁵ And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man. ⁶ And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings. ⁷ …and they sparkled like the color of burnished brass. ⁸ And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides… ⁹ Their wings were joined one to another… ¹⁰ …they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion… and… the face of an ox… and… the face of an eagle.}

The Seraph, Isaiah 6: 2-6 & Revelations 4: 8, with their six wings full of eyes. They endlessly chant, “Holy, holy, holy.” Be not afraid.
_{² Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. ³ And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy. —– ⁸And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, LORD God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.}

The Ophan, Ezekiel 1: 15-19, with it’s fiery rings full of eyes. Be not afraid.
_{⁶ …and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel. ¹⁷ When they went, they went upon their four sides: and they turned not when they went. ¹⁸ As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four.}
