One of the most enjoyable new games I recently played is Tactical Breach Wizards, which is essentially a puzzle game camouflaging as squad tactics game in the vein of XCOM Chimera Squad. What sets it apart is the good story and enjoyable character writing. It also has a good campaign playtime that does not overstay its welcome, yet a lot of bonus missions for when you want a bit more tactical defenestration.

More Epic adventures!
Dear all,
Turns out I slightly forgot about blogging for the last half decade or so. I hope to do a bit better in the future, at least announcing other cool stuff I am doing. Let's start with my newest Epic Adventures: My (german) Podcast about my research year abroad:
Epic Adventures UK - The Podcast
Apart from playing with yet another medium, this podcast is the opportunity to communicate about what moving abroad for science projects entails. I hope you'll enjoy it.
Stay epic!

Well, let's start the necromantic ritual: This year, the blog was admittedly not the main focus, with only a few posts. BUT this was mainly due to new and exciting projects: I started recording gaming videos ("Let's Plays" for YouTube), while rapidly professionalising. At some point, I set up a proper channel called Professor Plays! Check it out, I even have an SFX intro. Highlight was my ability to play and upload the Wasteland 3 Alpha at launch due to holidays.
More creative energy went into the overdue continuation of my musical side project Commander Deep, with the release of its second Album Rematerialisation In Finity. The production volume is approximately 100x higher than the last one, featuring multiple instruments, better SFX and proper artworks.
Gradient of Disorder is still around, with our first album
On the scientific front, I wrote an article about magnetic fields for "Der Skeptiker" that can be ordered here. Next year will probably see a few public education talks about 5G and why you don't need to hide under a stone because of it.
During traveling for conferences and meetings in north america, I made a nice travel video.
But most importantly, I got a new position (to be exactly half of one) for research using an intraoperative MRI that will be online in the near future. This cutting edge imager will offer exciting possibilities.
I summarise: 2019 was a productive and successful year!
Happy solstice, have a christmas and stay epic!

Self-Advertisement: Let's play with me
On my relentless quest to try out different things, I now started to record some Let's play videos on Youtube. So far, I tried out a few things, in german, but I guess I will mostly show spotlights of cool semi-current strategy games, play some dota2 and also delve into ancient video games (veeeeery ancient).

Awesome Games Done Quick 2019
Admittedly a bit late as it started yesterday, but one of my favourite streaming events of the year, Awesome Games Done Quick, ist happening this week. It is an event that shows incredible speedruns of video games to raise funds for charity. Donations go to the Prevent cancer Foundation and currently the Castlevania block is running.
Stay epic!

Commander Deep Returns!
After a long time of neglect, I took the time to dust of an old musical project that I did in 2009 and to upload it to YouTube for convenient access: Lo and behold, I present to you Commander Deep -Bastions of Infinity
This space ambient music presents the efforts of base guitar effects and signal postprocessing. While it might not have the highest production value, it is an important artefact of my mind form earlier times.
Stay epic!
