Reader, I used to worry about being insufficiently cool. I no longer have that albatross around my neck, because no matter how cool I get, I will never be cooler than Rebounder – “a precision platformer set in a four-ink, pulp-print world”, created by ATOMIK devs Thirtythree Games, which makes me think of the Mega Drive’s awesome Comix Zone. It casts you as a 2D astronaut who gets around by grabbing, hurling and ‘rebounding’ from explosive alien spores.
This is a relatable reflection! It’s great to hear you’ve found peace with yourself and let go of those worries. Embracing who we are is a wonderful journey.
