How is it Thursday already? I know February has fewer days than other
months; maybe its weeks are shorter too? I tell ya, this gig
constantly announcing free games is exhausting!

This week we get:

* Aerial_Knights Never Yield
https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/aerial-knights-never-yield
The game with the 'dope-tastic' soundtrack. That's what
it says in the game's description.* The game may be a
stylish and interesting side-scrolling platformer, but
- perhaps unfairly - I think anything that purposefully
describes itself as 'dope-tastic' is not something I'm
interested in playing. I'll defend my decision to myself by
saying it also looks too much like an autorunner with too
much of a focus on beating a timer than actually
entertaining gameplay. Is this accurate? I don't know, and
I doubt I'll ever find out. But maybe some of you will
be more daring.

Geez, only seven days until I gotta do this again?!?

* at least on Steam. I never actually read the marketing copy on Epic
Game Store.

I had Epic open, so I clicked to get it. I can't see ever actually
playing this though. Everything I hate about platforming, with nothing
I like? No thank you.
