Mixtape (Multi, XPd on PC) "On their last night of high school, three friends embark on one more adventure together. Play through a mixtape of memories, set to the soundtrack of a generation. Skate. Party. Avoid the law. Make out. Sneak out. Hang out." This is the 2nd game from Beethoven & Dinosaur, following the excellent The Artful Escape, so I had high hopes for it. These hopes were not dashed. As someone that also "came of age" in the 90s, this game absolutely nails the esthetic in every way possible. Assuming the role of Stacy Rockford, you and your 2 best pals are on a quest to have the best "last night before adulthood" ever. So this game is a mix of a lot of genres. You skate around town doing tricks. You "point and click" through memories in each kid's room. You search for clues to a fabled stash. You move a couch. Skip rocks at the pond hitting targets. To be fair, there is a not small amount of watching cinematics here because the story is central. Personally didn't bother me at all. I love the "claymation cross cel shaded"-ish graphic style. It takes a little getting used to as the slightly jerky movements make you wonder if your PC is acting up but after a bit I stopped noticing it. Everything is super colorful, quite pretty to look at. The soundtrack is dope asf, plain and simple. It's not restricted to just 90s stuff nor is it just "hits" but also more obscure stuff which is awesome as that's what I've been into since I was a kid. Coming in at 4hrs to roll credits, it's not a long experience which is fine since it's supposed to take course over an afternoon into evening. And it's not a pricey game, so IMO it costs exactly what it's worth. I only wish they sold the OST along with it, lol. (yeah I can just go get em myself but sometimes I'm lazy.) I very much enjoyed this game, and would highly recommend it. Don't skip out on this one, esp if you're like me, a 90s kid. #Mixtape #Gaming #ShareYourGames #Steam #PC #LinuxGaming https://mixtape.game/

Good Morning Folks. Happy #MixtapeMondays, and today I present you with another mix brought on by contemplating my non-existence thanks to cancer. It almost feels like I am dealing with the stages of grief in musical form, and this one is quite a bit more moody and brooding than my normal fare. The anchor song this time was Sultans of Swing. https://aggronaut.com/2026/03/16/mixtape-mondays-mired-moody-mindset/ #Music #AmListening #Mixtape

Good Morning Folks! Last week I forgot about #MixtapeMondays and failed to release this one... but it is honestly probably a good thing because I have a super busy morning today. I've been going down a bit of a dark journey since getting my cancer diagnosis, and this mix fits that theme. https://aggronaut.com/2026/03/02/mixtape-mondays-fear-loathing-flesh/ #music #amlistening #mixtape

Good Morning Folks. I come to you this morning with my third new #Mixtape in a row in this present series of #MixtapeMondays. This time around, it is a bit of a remix. My friend Mallow posted her own playlist the other day, and I clicked through and listened and marveled at how well a specific three-song block worked together. So then I built my entire new mix around that nugget. https://aggronaut.com/2026/02/16/mixtape-mondays-willowy-weary-wise/ #Music #Playlist #AmListening

Good Morning Folks! I am dusting off my #MixtapeMondays series and releasing a new one focused on a single #Erasure song, building out from that. I've missed creating these and releasing them, so we will see how long I can keep this going again. https://aggronaut.com/2026/02/02/mixtape-mondays-erasure-shaped-box/ #Mixtape #Blog #Aggronaut
