December 8th Entry: Breakfast Saga

Yes, oh yes. Pancakes, waffles, bananas, strawberries, eggs, toast, butter, apples, cinnamon, tea, hot chocolate, coffee, cheese and cereal. Does your face look like this 😛 yet? Well, it probably does! Anyways, despite the title being called "breakfast saga" this post does not actually explore a variety of breakfast foods as the title would suggest. It's partially about a game with the namesake title of Breakfast Saga. Why did I decide to make its title represent this post? Wait, nobody cares so let's just proceed to discussing these videos!🥞🍳🍞🧀☕🥧🍎 Alright, I should probably stop the food tease now, before I make you too hungry to be in the mood for reading!🤣


So as you can tell from the not so stellar photos from above, this Asphalt 8 session was mainly about me discussing the Honda Civic Type R's Championship, and a few other bits here and there. And yes, even though they weren't fantastic, I actually raced on the tracks that I should have done from last time in this video: Dubai with the Lamborghini Gallardo, and Dubai and China for the McLaren P1. And just for fun and giggles, I also did an Enduro Double Down race with the Volkswagen Golf GTI. I do not plan on pursuing the Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport. Some might think I'm crazy for not wanting to go for it, but if the Honda Civic Type R's Championship has taught me anything, it's the fact that you need to be 100% certain that you want to win that car! Having to max it out, and use a lot of boosters and tokens is a very expensive investment, unless you already have tons of boosters, credits and tokens. Speaking of Championship, Barcelona has opened up for my area and others today. I hear that others in certain regions have actually finished the Championship, since they had it start earlier for them. Don't know how true that is, but it's what I hear. Anyways! I've managed to complete all the other places so far, so I hope that I can continue with this success. The Brazilian cities that are due to open tomorrow I believe, have me a little nervous. I do not know the Brazilian tracks very well at all. It also doesn't help that the only ready access you get to all of them is in Season 9 with premium cars! Most of which exceed 1,000,000 credits, with some even shooting past 3,000,000!😰😵🤯 Ridiculous... truly ridiculous... Well, can't wait to have continuous access to a Munich track in 2-3 days from now!😎 Come to me sooner Honda Civic Type R!😄


A relatively boring Flappy Bird spin-off, that sometimes randomly crashes, and requires you to pay to be able to use the female ladybug, Mollie. Not that I care about the latter, but maybe others do? Perhaps would have been better off just charging $1.99 up front and having everything unlocked, rather than making just one character cost that much. Negatives aside, you know what makes this game good? The smooth performance, good graphics, and ever so comical noises that Herbie makes whenever he crashes! 🤣😂 He sounds so goofy and dramatic! 🤡 In this game, you fly through bamboo trees, collect gems and avoid falling or crashing. That's it. No additional unlockables, shops, background changes or anything more. Some may appreciate this simplicity, others might expect a little more from a Flappy Spin-off, especially if you're coming from something like Flappy Nyan or Flappy Wings.

Burn, extinguish and absorb as you navigate through the levels of this puzzle game with a leaf, fireball and raindrop.🍃💧🔥 That theme sounds familiar doesn't it? Though I've briefly attempted playing this game once, this would my first time recording and playing it extensively. Too bad the microphone stopped keeping up with the audio, after around 15 minutes. 😣 That's ok, because I've now updated Audacity, and will probably try a different port. Not sure which of the two is to blame here, but like I said in both this video and Breakfast Saga, I'm aware of this issue and will do what I can to try and prevent it from happening again. Anyways, how is the game? Awesome of course! It's a little difficult, but it's good fun. This game is also available on Android in the Google
Play Store. Based on the promo video that I've actually just watched, it seems like the Android version is more feature rich and may have more levels. 😏 Go figure. Fun fact: the full name of the man behind this game is Edward Alejandro Medina. 

Breakfast Saga! This is the game that I've named the blog after. Now, originally I've said that this game is a Bejewelled spin-off, but actually mimics Candy Crush Saga more closely. Should have been obvious from the name, but wait: aren't those two games alike anyway? So maybe I wasn't wrong on that? Who knows. I'll have to play it again to refresh my memory. From the looks of Breakfast Saga 2, it resembles Candy Crush Saga even more. Kind of a bad thing, because I like the pixel graphics in this originally one that I've played for this entry. It gives it more of that tasty, warm charm, and suits its character. That's not to say that I don't like the sharp, cartoony graphics in its successor, but just prefer the aesthetics of this game better. Anyhow, this game was deliciously fun! 😋🍰🍩🍪🧀🥐🍞🍳


Boy, the December 2017 Audacity sure looks different in terms of colours! I haven't updated Audacity for years, so I've been used to the look from 5+ years ago. After finally updating it, the dark blue-grey theme and restyled icons came as a great surprise to me. Still, everything is familiar thankfully, but just visually different, so the worry didn't last too long. Like I've said in previous entries, quality does matter a lot to me, so when I saw the audio not syncing precisely, even when it was lined up right, I knew something was up. I still don't really know if it's Audacity, the Blue Snowball or both. I decided to give Audacity an upgrade, so I hope that will help. If not, I will just have to use my Nokia Lumia 1520 to capture the sounds for my BlackBerry 10 gaming videos. If you've seen my Eyebert video I've done back in November, you'll know that they're very good, but obviously not as good as something like a Blue Microphone Yeti. About that commentary I was supposed to upload this week...😅 I did not get the chance to work on it at all this week. 😐 As a result, you may likely see it between the December 11-15 period instead. No absolute guarantee, but that should give you a rough idea. Oh, snap! I still haven't uploaded any instrumental Christmas carols yet! 🎄 Hmmmm... I'll have to try not to forget about that. Once again, there will be no outdoor videos for this weekend, because I won't be able to get them done this weekend. Now I don't think there's anything more I have to say, so I'm out. Actually yes: I'm a fan of the new emojis that the new Fall Windows 10 update brought, but I'm not a fan of the clunkier performance, and lack of actual improvements. Maybe I haven't explored it thoroughly enough, but if Microsoft could at least release an update that actually brings smoother performance, then that would be awesome! And whatever Microsoft plans to bring to the mobile game in 2018 or 2019, let's actually hope that they advertise their devices properly, and make them available on all major carriers in the United States of America and Canada! Do not carelessly abandon your own operating system so soon and just ignore users blatantly! Release yearly flagships, mid-rangers, and budget-rangers to keep people interested and afloat! Why did I have to type that up so boldly? To emphasize the serious flaws that Microsoft made with Windows Phones, that's why.
