![]() If there’s one thing that fabric monsters are going to be, it’s flammable, and so jumping into a lantern and then Soul Throwing it at them can cause an explosion that burns them right up. Soul Jumping can even be used in the moment-to-moment combat. Tchia’s adventure sees her trying to rescue her father from strange fabric creatures that have invaded, with a half-human half-worm creature leading them – from their glowing eye, it would seem they possess some rather similar powers to Tchia. There’s also combat to consider here, as you engage with the main threat that drives the narrative forward. It can be upgraded to 10 slots that are used for initial possession and then drain over time, and it can then be instantly replenished by eating some food. There’s a separate kind of stamina meter for Soul Jumping, so you don’t have total freedom to explore without limitations, but as with the regular stamina bar, it feels like Awaceb are leaning toward the more forgiving side of gameplay. In an amusing quirk, you can keep a bird in Tchia’s backpack for when you need it, throwing it up into the air and then quickly Soul Jumping to take control. Perhaps you slingshot yourself from a tree, glide for a moment, spot a bird nearby and Soul Jump into it before flapping your way up a cliff face. The whole system is designed with improvisational movement in mind. Where it’s an inanimate object, she can still impart force to it, bouncing, rolling or flinging through the world, but animals give her their natural abilities, so a parrot will be great for flying quickly across the island, while a dolphin can more easily explore underwater and have fun leaping into the air. Whether it’s a tyre, a coconut, a lantern, a fish or a bird, Tchia can stare at and become one with it through the power of Soul Jumping. With a glowy green eye, Tchia can look at and possess pretty much anything on this island. With flips and tricks that you can pull before gliding to the top of another tree, this looks like a wonderfully daft and freeform way of getting around the island. Again, as in Breath of the Wild, Tchia can glide down from any height using a ragged looking patch of fabric, but more sensational is the way that she can climb up trees, make them sway back and forth before catapulting into the air. It means to potter about in the garden, often when you should be doing something else altogether and possibly leaving piles of cuttings to gather up later.From that point, though, things get start to be more cartoonishly brilliant. He never called him my son in law, just son. It rather seems that I’ve taken over his mantle now and ‘to cricket’ has become a verb in our family. Because his name was James, he gained the nickname The Cricket from my OH, they got on so well with my Dad always saying OH was the son he never had. He was so happy in the outdoors and really enjoyed birds, nature and sitting out quietly taking everything in. He would’ve absolutely loved how our garden has developed over the years. ![]() I won’t even be able to sit on my Dad’s memorial bench with a mug of tea and think about him. We’re missing them so much and of course, today, our own late Fathers too. ![]() It’s rained quite a lot in the night and is still raining this morning, so lucky we didn’t arrange anything in the garden after all. Unfortunately our Father’s Day here is going to consist of a video call with the girls and not the usual get together. Hope all Fathers are having a fabulous day and if you’re a Leeds United, Aston Villa or a Liverpool Football Club fan then I hope you’re still having a fabulously fantastic day by 9pm tonight. Making a point of calling myself cute every day was a huge thing for me, and it’s something I might return to in the future (I suppose it was sort of like a daily affirmation before I knew what those were, so I’d start my post out positively with the Cute Campaign and end positively with something I was thankful for). I am extremely protective of my femininity (so much so that I had a mini freak out over accidentally buying a men’s shirt a bit ago (it’s somewhere in this journal, but that shirt has since become one of my favorites))). Anyway it helped with my self-image, I think, especially since I’ve had issues with ~gender~ (I’m a cis woman, but I get just enough little hairs on my jawline and neck to make me self conscious, my sideburns are kinda thicc, and I’ve been told more than once that I look boyish when I let my hair just hang in twists. well, if you want a full look at my thoughts on it, take a look at April 9, 2020, but beware: it’s a bit of an anxiety rollercoaster, that post. The Cute Campaign was a great thing for me.
