Unfortunately, the interior designs of #RiverCity leave a bit to be desired. I can't believe how most of the floorplans take those big bays of windows and cut them in half with a wall. I'd love to see #DearModern do a layout fix.

Headed back to #Chicago next week for a conference. I loved seeing the great #architecture last time in 2011. Perhaps my favorite building is #RiverCity, which was #BertrandGoldberg's follow up to #MarinaCity, and has a similar design, but is more human-scaled without the 16 floors of car parking on the bottom. And all the curved #BayWindows are incredible.

Just received an order from Play-Asia.com 🙈
I don't know if I'll collect all volumes of ACA NEO Selection, but I might... 👀
Hopefully I'll be finishing the first River City Saga Three Kingdoms soon, so I can continue with Next. And Gunvolt might be the game for my trip to Uruguay this year 🤔#NintendoSwitch #PlayAsia #NeoGeo #RiverCity #AzureStrikerGunvolt

River City Girls 2 (Switch): COMPLETED!
My daughter and I were big fans of the original River City Girls so the sequel was sat on my wishlist for ages waiting for a bit sale. That came around, and we played it through together.
It’s more of the same, really. A side-scrolling, semi-open-world beat-em-up with RPG elements set in the world of Kunio-kun/River City Ransom and made by Wayforward, just like the first game. It has a great cartoon style, loads of in-jokes (with both River City adjacent links, like Double Dragon and Crash And The Boys, and Wayforward properties like Mighty Switch Force) and satisfying and upgradable combat.
As it’s set in the same city as the first game, many locations are back – like school and shopping centre) although they have been modified so aren’t a complete copy-and-paste. There are plenty of new areas though. Similarly, there are both returning and new characters, although I don’t think most of the new ones are as good as the ones in the original. Also returning is another soundtrack from Megan McDuffee, which is also excellent.
The plot is mostly concerned with revenge on the Girls taking down the bad guy in the last game, although there are a couple of twists.
Gameplay-wise there are a few tweaks to improve stuff from before. Shop purchases work slightly differently, and there’s seemingly a lot more money available with which to buy them. The game seems easier too, meaning less death (which causes both progress and money loss).
It’s not all improvements though, sadly. Loading times are particularly bad, but also there are a number of bugs like items getting stuck out of reach, sound cutting out, and a few full crashes. Nothing major because of frequent save points but annoying nonetheless. Some of the new areas, like the overdone game trope of the “forest maze”, aren’t great either, and I’m sure there’s more backtracking this time round too, hindered by the aforementioned loading times.
That said, the fun, humour and style of the game massively outweigh the issues. It’s maybe not quite as enjoyable as the original, but doesn’t miss it by much.

I posted a new T-shirt design based off an image of an old "St. Louis" button that's honoring the 260th birthday of our gritty, underappreciated town. New for 2024! Tell your friends! Markup is only 10% on this baby so they're cheap too! Just like you!
