    Heeyyy @SpaceOtter how are you? Been a while.

    @lovemimoon not too far from his house tbh, but it means I’ll be in England for the England final on Sunday. Just a small change of scenery.

    Oh nooo!! Lady red is the worst. And she always shows up at the worst of times doesn’t she. Hot bath sounds like a nice idea, hot water bottle and treat yourself to something nice.

    God I was so drunk last night lol. I drank three massive glasses of water before bed and it cured me for today 😅

    Hey @independent_ Happy Thursday! I’m good thank you. Yep it’s been a while I’ve had my head in the clouds :joy: but I’m trying to be more active now. How are you?

    @lovemimoon sending lots of hugs <3 I haven’t been doing much really just little things like reading and paint by numbers. What about you?

    @Shaunie good to hear, water can really work wonders sometimes.
    You're awesome!

    @Apollo I like hotshot racing it’s a fun game. Have you ever played lonely mountain down hill that’s pretty fun too.
    @SpaceOtter I've not, what's it like?

    @lovemimoon ooh that sounds fun, I must admit to not knowing much about manga but it seems cool. Have you been reading anything in particular? Paint by numbers is going well thank you, it’s the third one I’ve done and it’s taking time. And I’ve been reading the divergent series, I’m not a huge fan of but I’ve gotten so far might as well finish it :joy:

    @Apollo it’s a cool little game, the animation is quite funky and vivid. You’re a cyclist and your goal is getting down the mountain in the time limit, it doesn’t matter how you get there as long as you pass through check points. It’s really fun but can be quite fiddly.
    You're awesome!

    Actually I think I've seen this, it's on game pass if I remember correctly, I'll try it out @SpaceOtter

    @SpaceOtter Ooh! If you want, I can introduce you to a couple of mangas! Currently reading this manga called 'Viral Hit' - it's about this bullied student that started a 'Youtube' channel, beating up bullies. Pretty intense so far!

    Where did you get your paint by number canvases?? Can I see what you did so far, if you don't mind me asking.

    Ooh, the Divergent series! Haven't read it before but let me know how it was! :joy:

    @Apollo yeah it’s on game pass, gosh game pass is pretty awesome. It’s a good game but no pressure to give it a go.
    You're awesome!

    @lovemimoon ooh that sounds pretty awesome , I’ll have to give it a go.

    I get mine from eBay , I normally get them without the frame which people recommend you not to do but never mind :joy

    I don’t mind. I must admit I get a pretty big head when it comes to paint by numbers, I like showing them off after spending so much time on them.

    Here’s the one I’m working on 3jp0tctep52c.jpeg

    Here’s the one I finished just before it

    I’m on the last book in the series, the characters are good I really like them. But there’s moments I wonder to myself if the author planned the story out or just went with her gut. But I guess it’s better than anything I could write.
    You're awesome!

    @SpaceOtter Deffo! I can also recommend you some mangas if you're interested in certain genres! :3

    That, my friend, is completely understandable, considering the results here:

    They are so gorgeous! It looks like they took a long while to complete! How long did it take you??

    Ahh, do you like writing stories??

    @SpaceOtter those are really nice and very impressive

    Also I agree, I'd 100% say game pass is the best thing about owning an XBox, I basically live off of random indie games I find on this thing and some of them are absolute gems

    @lovemimoon ooh thank you, I don’t really have a preference for genre. What’s your favourite mangas?

    Thank you! They really did take a while. The finished one took about three weeks and I did an hour or two a night. So a lot of hours :joy:

    I love writing stories but they’re certainly noy very good . But I find it’s a nice distraction, plus I spend half my life day dreaming I might as well write it down lol.

    Do you like writing? Or doing creative things ?
    You're awesome!

    @Apollo thank you!

    Yes totally , I’d definitely say the game pass is the number one reason to buy an Xbox. You never know what games you’ll find, it’s great for finding out what sort of games you lost enjoy.

    Indie games are so precious, you never know when you’re going to find an amazing one that leaves you thinking about it for weeks :joy:

    Do you have a favourite indie game?
    You're awesome!

    ApolloApollo Posts: 804 Part of The Mix Family
    @SpaceOtter well my favourite game is Outer Wilds, which I'm pretty sure is an indie game l

    Apart from that I like Spiritfarer, Undertale, Celeste and I'm looking forward to playing Ori And The Blind Forest

    I'm playing a puzzle game right now called Carto, its pretty cool and it's style is really nice

    I'm probably forgetting some, what are your fsvourite indie games?
