The dramatic transition of the extreme Red #Supergiant WOH G64 to a Yellow Hypergiant: https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.19329 - this 2024 paper, already mentioned by me in connection with other observations of that star in https://skyweek.wordpress.com/2024/11/24/allgemeines-live-blog-ab-dem-24-11-2024/ ("Die enge zirkumstellare Umgebung des Roten Überriesen WOH G64 ..."), has now been formally published: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41550-026-02789-7.epdf?sharing_token=7UR_XvTAZerqnMHPRyA0LtRgN0jAjWel9jnR3ZoTv0N7FejDObMF3AkHA10E71tuouxDX6yP8bM1QCFKGVVZLl8bT37LMadR8u4ukhACilFI60-Zxl0e00Bc0v3qXkG29yIQr7uTE0sd644q7We4d6ay5Tblhxc-UABROlAnuDs%3D

at 35+ hours in and still going strong, my personal GOTY 2025 has to be Hades 2. I've enjoyed Supergiant's games since Bastion, and they're only getting better. the clever use of music in their games has been a major factor in my going back again and again
unique cast of characters, improved gameplay and unlock loops and variety compared to the first game, incredible soundtrack because Supergiant.. it's the whole package. if you like roguelike action games, this one's a gem

CW: Hades spoilers after first escape
Maybe I'm wrong and story progression actually isn't that tied to successful escape attempts, but when the only goal I'm given is to "escape more times", I feel like the game is actively telling me that's the case.
Maybe it's misleading me or I'm misinterpreting it, but whether or not it's factually true that I need to escape to progress the story is irrelevant. Ultimately I *believe* it's true as a player and that belief demotivates me from playing the game enough to actually find out the truth.
I might play a little more Hades largely out of boredom and a desire to not start #ClairObscur quite yet.
But I feel like I'm playing *despite* the game's story, not because of it. I love #SuperGiant stories, but this one just isn't working for me.

My focus music today: Darren Korb's Transistor soundtrack (hummed ver.).
With a protagonist who is a singer that lost her voice, it's kinda genius to make a hummed version of the sndtrk.

Hades 2’s Story Doesn’t Change The Status Quo

Our Sun feels enormous: until you meet Stephenson 2-18. This red #supergiant is so huge that if it replaced our Sun, its surface would reach past Saturn. You could fit 10 billion Suns inside. Almost beyond imagination.

"There is no one out there doing what #Supergiant does as well as it does, and this exceptional action roguelite is some of this team’s best work on nearly every level (which is an astonishingly high bar to clear). It's the type of video #game that reminds me why I love video games so damn much. The art is breathtaking, the characters are captivating, the combat is fast, fun, endlessly varied, and tactical, and the music is spectacular."

Hades 2 fans get their hopes up for a 1.0 release date as Supergiant accidentally updates the roguelike with Steam achievements ahead of Nintendo Direct
https://www.gamesradar.com/games/hades/hades-2-fans-get-their-hopes-up-for-a-1-0-release-date-as-supergiant-accidentally-updates-the-roguelike-with-steam-achievements-ahead-of-nintendo-direct/
📌 Summary:
Supergiant Games 在 2025 年 7 月 29 日意外替《Hades 2》Steam 版加入成就，兩小時後又刪除，時機點正好碰上任天堂隔日舉辦的 Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase，引發玩家對 1.0 正式版「影子上架」的強烈期待。工作室本月初才聲稱已發布「最後一個」搶先體驗更新，卻於上週再推出一次修補；再考量上一代《Hades》與《Hades 2》搶先體驗皆以毫無預警的方式推出，本次「成就烏龍」被視為正式版即將發布的前兆。若傳聞屬實，《Hades 2》將於 Switch 2 首度獨佔主機平台，同步在 Steam 推出 1.0 版。
🎯 Key Points:
→ ★ 成就異動時間線：2025 年 7 月 29 日 18:59 UTC，《Hades 2》於 SteamDB 顯示新增 68 項成就；不到兩小時後全部移除，疑似被玩家於 Reddit 指出後緊急下架。
→ ★ 更新頻率與官方說法：Supergiant 7 月初稱「這將是 1.0 前最後一個更新」，卻在上週再度釋出補丁，顯示開發進度已收尾但仍在細節調整。
→ ★ 影子上架的前科：首代《Hades》Switch 版及《Hades 2》搶先體驗皆採無預警釋出策略，使玩家更相信官方會在 Nintendo Direct 中重施故技。
→ ★ 平台策略：Supergiant 曾確認《Hades 2》正式上市時，主機端將先於 Switch 2 獨佔，綁定 Nintendo Direct 的曝光有利擴大話題。
→ ★ 社群反應：Reddit 討論串快速突破千則留言，多數玩家將成就異動視為「最終打包」和「送審」信號，Steam 社群也出現回流潮，以備正式版釋出。
→ ★ 商務意義：若成功影子上架，可同時拉抬 Switch 2 與 Steam 銷售聲量，並延續 Supergiant 低預算高話題的行銷傳統。

Fans of #Hades and #SuperGiant games: Has anyone seen an interview with the studio where they explain what motivated them to make their first ever sequel with Hades 2?
I’m sure its success is part of it. But they’ve had meaningfully successful games in the past that could have had sequels, yet they’ve never done one to my knowledge.
Is Greek mythology just *that much* fun to build around? Are they trying to grow to a new milestone as a studio, maybe take on multiple games at once?

A star's life begins in a #Nebula, a cloud of gas and dust.
It spends most of its life fusing hydrogen into helium, eventually evolving into a #RedGiant or #Supergiant before potentially ending as a #WhiteDwarf, #Neutron #Star, or #BlackHole.

Yesterday I played #Hades for like 3 hours, and then I looked at my playtime and was so weirded out until I noticed it was already past midnight :blobcatderpy:
I managed to get to the final battle for the first time, and even beat the first phase! But then I died...

🛑📢🌍 A network of optical telescopes 🔭 – the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (#VLTI) – has for the first time captured detailed images of a star outside our #galaxy 📸. The star WOH G64 🌟 is 2000 times larger in diameter than the #Sun ☀️ and lies 160,000 light-years away. Scientists, examining the gas and dust surrounding it, can tell that this red #supergiant 🔴 is in its final life phase and will soon explode into a #supernova 💥.

With all the (doubtless justified) hype around #hades2 approaching, I instead revisited #supergiant 's _Pyre_ and, wow, what a perfectly paced game.
Built on the relationships that build and sever one by one as your victories save each of your players from their cozy-sports-league-in-hell.
The "gain narrative tension as you lose characters," RPG-party-building-in-reverse mechanic is just inspired.
And the final-page "where are they now" payoffs are predictable but so cathartic.

Why would #Supergiant not want to be on #itchio? They were there for three games: https://supergiant-games.itch.io/
Then they got big with Hades and itchio isn't even listed as an option on their main site now https://www.supergiantgames.com/
Are they embarrassed by itchio? Is it too small for them? Would they have a contract that says they can't sell on itchio?

Broke down and got #Hades2 recently. Kiddo had a decent session on it yesterday. I love the graphics, but the game itself is kinda repetitive. Shoot shoot blast run madly around the screen shoot shoot dodge and finally clear the single arena. Get a powerup or health boost, run to next room and do it again. If that floats your boat, great, but for us it’s just a little too much wash rinse repeat, ultra-pretty or not. #gaming #videogame #videogames #supergiant
-
So #Hades2 is good, like really good, though I pray #SuperGiant makes a new IP for their next game. -
Everyone's like "Hades 2? Already?" and I'm like, "You know it was in development since 2021, right?"
Still, definitely worth the dosh as it currently stands, even in Early Access. Supergiant show that same level of polish and care as they do in all their games.
