Isn’t it funny how the primary colors look significantly better if you slightly nudge them away from being primary colors? I can’t be content with pure red, green, and blue; I gotta make it too complicated for myself—coral, scarlet, seafoam, cerulean, indigo, exact hex codes, PANTONE color designations, what kind of color is “puce” again? I refuse to tell you how long I’ve spent getting a headache squinting at subpixels imperceptibly but precisely changing as I periodically struggle to increment a slider by a single unit at a time. The pure, simple colors don’t look right. It has to be overcomplicated.

For nostalgia’s sake, and because I couldn’t think of anything else to write about, I’ve decided to write another good ol’ game review. Not really expanding my horizons, but they do say “do what you love!” Anyways, The game of choice today will be one you can absolutely just zone out to. With simple concepts, yet an underlying complexity, this game will leave you entertained for hours. Plus, there’s an active modding community, and free DLC being released fairly often! All of these traits I feel as though keep a game, and it’s community, alive. This game in question today is House Flipper. With that out of the way, let’s get right into it!

Also, no none of this will help your vocabulary or grammar because I suck at that also.
