Been following a LOT of indie games for the last couple of years and the breadth of Metroidvania's in particular has been pretty awesome to witness. I just got a notice from Steam that Iconoclasts has a 60% off sale. Any of you play this? #Games

Who has played the new Zelda game for Switch? Still don't have a Switch but itching too thanks to this game. #Games

Still don't have a Switch, but between the upcoming Zelda game and the ability to play NES/SNES it is becoming increasingly harder. Though I have to really question the logic of the next Switch being one that can NOT play on a TV. :/ Who else is looking forward to this game? #Games

So much talk about the Switch lately, it seems like a great system! One thing I don't understand though - why the need for the screen? Or why not an option to buy it without the screen to make it more affordable for peeps? I got a little excited that

What #games did you all enjoy in 2018? I looked at a lot of indie games but haven't had the time to actually try any out. :/ Living vicariously through you all...

What a year! Could do with some Picross action to soothe those frayed nerves. Any Picross fans here? #Games

What're you all scheming this weekend? Watching netflix? Playing games? Grabbing some final warm air before it disappears?

Hey, what're you all up to this weekend? The weather's strangely warm so I'm going to make the last of the warmth before Fall properly kicks in, so loads of offline time for me. Watching any shows? Playing games? Movies?

Like many of you I got tired of some of the glaring issues with MapleStory (pay to play, lag, hackers...) but miss the art style and community. I'm curious what games you're all playing these days or have you found any that fill the void that MapleStory left (if you did leave it). On that note, do any of you still Maple? What're you enjoying about it most these days?

Hi all! Hope you've had a great summer so far? Thought I'd share an update on the alpha launch of the new Forum functionality! BZL's forums are split into 4 topics, which are identical to our site topics; Games, Art, TV, Music. Up to this point, BZL has been *solely* about stories, which are basically like blogs - little snippets of news, screenshots or videos. Forums are a way to ask questions or bring up discussions in a more casual way. It's also a format that's more conducive to chat as the thread gets bumped when there are replies. Each forum has a list of sub-forums. Many of us are current / former Maplers so there is a MapleStory forum. But there are also forums for other games as well as consoles (DS, Switch, PS4, etc). You'll note

Greetings BZL'rs. I'm hoping to get some feedback on a fairly big feature I'm considering implementing please. BZL's story posting functionality is somewhat limited in the sense that it is used like a blog entry where you might share a screen or video or some piece of news. My thought is to also create a way to ask questions, share opinions, etc - a forum. The forums would be limited to Games, Anime and Art. Posting to these forums would be simple - ie, add '#forum #art' when adding a new story. Optionally, you could click a 'forum' button which expands to show a list of available forums. Focus would be placed on simplicity and keeping the interface clean. Forum threads would be shown on the right column like on the above image. The story c

It's always exciting to see someone hone their skills to the point where they go beyond emulating their inspiration to a place where they can explore the things inside their head. At the same time, it's important for someone from the outside looking in to keep in mind that great art is not an island, there is many years of work involved in getting to that point. There are no shortcuts - everyone gets out of it what they put into it. Whether you've heard of Ian Olympia, aka wicked alucard, is not entirely important. His body of work as an illustrator of 11 years is a great example of that transformation from emulation to personal exploration.

I've been following Secret Legend for awhile now, a Zelda-like that has clearly gone on its own direction. To little surprise it has been renamed #Tunic. Keep an eye out for this one, I think. It looks and feels gorgeous. Can't wait! #PC #PS4

Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild DLC pack details are out! - Trial of the Sword - Hard Mode - Hero's Path Mode - Travel Medallion - Korok Mask - New Equipment I still think it's uncool they're extra for these things, they should've just been in the game, no? It's already expensive enough as is for games these days... but what're you going to do? Any of you play BoW?
