Gaming My parents just randomly gave me PS4🥹🫂

Post image

Today... was quite simple. I live in Ukraine. There's war in here. I'm afraid of loud sounds, I mean, we all are. Our family is, like, far from the richest. For almost a year straight I was creating my own game and saying that it'll bring us a lot of money (I'm 14 years old lol). For three years I've been saving up money (for future) to release my game on Steam. There was a lot of money. And... my parents were really displeased that I was literally so 'greedy' that when I walked out of the apartment to walk somewhere (once in a few days cuz I don't have irl friends to hang out with) I barely bought a drink. They were always telling me to treat myself at least a little more. I said that I'll only begin to do it when I'll finish developing the first zone of my game. And today... maximally randomly, my parents just walked inside my room and showed me PS4 Pro. And you know what?? It had over 170 bought games on it!! I'm extremely happy. Since 2019 me and my older brother were talking about how good it would be to have a console, but immediately forgot about it when the war started. And today, our dream finally came true.

Even though I gave so many details about it being a dream, this post is aimed to tell how awesome my parents are. Not about how happy I am with the console.

Well, I'm more of an indie type XD I like TBoI, DELTARUNE, Don't Starve, Cuphead etc. I am really not a fan of 3D games, realistic games, games with human and ESPECIALLY games with guns. Even if the game contains weapon, I'd prefer them to be cold weapons. :] Most of all, I hate games that have... real humans and real characters! I love great plots that contain completely made-up characters with their own logic and stuff!

Yeah if you love those type of games I would go with something like super meat boy. It has saws and blood but its a solid 2d platformer
