Happy National Video Game Day, as that's a thing today in the U.S. There's more than one of these, but as I have pointed out in the past, every day is video game day here. Enjoy the occasion!

I decided to play Carto, which I got in a bundle a while ago (it was part of the bundle’s appeal). So far, after finishing two chapters, I am enjoying it. No violence, fairly easy, and cute. It is only about a six-hour game, so it will not overstay its welcome.
No... no violence?DOES NOT COMPUTE.
