Memories In Orbit

I've been playing a new video game called MIO: Memories in Orbit. I have a bit of a soft spot for what they called Metroidvania's (a portmanteau of Metroid and Castlevania), having grown up loving games in the genre. In this game, you "Play MIO, a nimble robot with extraordinary abilities, and unravel the mysteries of the Vessel, an enormous technological ark overgrown with lush vegetation and machines gone rogue." My brother is playing at the same time, and it's almost like being in a book club. Or, at least how I imagine it is to be in a book club, as I've never actually been part of one. We share updates and new locations we've found with each other as we puzzle our way through this organic sci-fi ark.

See you in orbit.
