The trips to the movies, zoo, museum.

They are not always promised.

Appreciate your loved ones.

I’m a poet like I'm a good law student, 

News flash, I'm not a good student. 

I’m a good person just like my cooking skills.

News Flash, I’m a great cook. 

I can’t take back all the bad things I've done, 

News Flash, I’m a ball of bad decisions. 

If I had a time machine, I’d gladly fix lots of things, 

News Flash, I'm not a scientist. 

If I had the money, I’d make all your problems go away, 

News Flash, I’m a debt free Law School Student (casual flex). 

If I had the money, I’d pay off all your student loans, 

News Flash, one day I’ll be great. 

So many people in my life, I care about, 

News Flash, it’s not always Mutual. 

I’m a work in progress. 

You don't want peace if you stay with me

The most I can offer is chaos

Because therein lies chaos within me

I’m but a turbulent storm

You a mere vessel, among the chaos

Seeking to stay a float

Amongst the storm that only grows with more angst

a ranging riptide

Seeking to destroy what I don't have within myself

I don't know how to be at peace

i’ve been raging my whole life

There's no peace within me

All i can offer is cancerous pain rummaging your mental health

Floating in my world of self-created chaos

Its all i know how to foster

I'm with whatever;

I'm with everything;

like i'm with it all, what you want to do?

I’m a slut, what's up, get me lit. 

Sometimes you have to let go of comfort to grow;

Sometimes you have to let go of someone because you’re not compatible;

Sometimes you have to let go of someone because you know you don’t want the same things;

Sometimes you have to let go of someone because you know the only way to keep them in your life is to lie to them;

Sometimes you have to let someone go because you know what you want is not what they want;

Sometimes you have to let go of what could be, because of what is;

What a great game.

TLDR: The gameplay is fun, the pacing is fun, getting lost can be fun.

Death's Door is an isometric game in the spirit of Souls-like Zelda with Metroidvania elements.

Acid Nerve made Death's Door, who also made Titan Souls. It's great to see how they've grown as developers.

 In Death's Door, you'll find yourself a crow on a mission, killing enemies with a simple yet rewarding combat system of dodging, rolling, charging up your magic, and slicing enemies before you.  I do want to state, this game is not easy, if you played Titan Souls, you'll know Acid Nerve's games are not easy. Death’s Door was difficult and coupling that with doing exercise every time I lost led to a fun experience albeit challenging.  

Get used to seeing that, cause you going to die a lot. 

You play a cute little crow/ reaper, who lost a soul he was supposed to obtain and embarked on a quest to harvest three additional souls in an attempt to right the crow's wrong (at least I think that's what happened).

 You as the crow can use the world as your weapon as well. Enemies harm each other if you get them to cause fratricide which is always a plus in games in my opinion. It makes the player’s choice carry weight and raises the stakes.

 I forgot what it's like to get lost in a game world.

 A large portion of the game, I spent wondering, not sure where to go, and adding the fact that there is no in-game map added to me getting lost. But that’s the beauty in the game, so many games nowadays hold your hand by providing a compass and map instructing the player where to go. Not Death's Door though, boom, you just wonder, looking for where to go. You get a new tool, time to revisit old sections of the world and see if you can access anything new. It can be a bit confusing at times because you're not sure if you're backtracking since the world is so big and confusing. But if you continue to power through, you'll eventually find out where you're supposed to go.

 The Art Design in the game is phenomenal.

 The main hub world's color pallet is minimal at first but changes over time thanks to budding little creatures and trinkets you find in the world. The worlds you explore, from snowy peaks, luscious forest, and somber cemeteries are bursting with colors making a nice contrast to the bureaucracy of the world our little crow exists in. Also, special s/o to game's magic, especially the "spirit bomb" in this game, if done in the right place, the world's particles become part of your spirit bomb. That's what makes this game so special, it's the little touches that make it shine. Throwing little fireballs makes you feel like you are throwing Hadokens left and right.

 The game’s developers crafted a lived-in world, thanks to all the different architecture, many characters, and worn structures found throughout the world adding personality and mystery to the environments. I'd often ask myself, I wonder why this walkway is so broken, your these doors hanging on a hinge.

 A few negatives: The bosses were easier than some of the game's additional bosses (to power up your magic spells) or mid-bosses.

 The lack of a map isn't a deal-breaker, but man does it make traversal confusing at times, especially since you're relying on your memory to find new places.

 Overall, I recommend this game, I died several times but each death taught me something new and when you figure out how to fight enemies and their patterns, it becomes a deadly dance as you pepper the floor with blood spewed by fallen foes if not your own.

Gains Gaming is a gaming alternative style which incorporates working out and gaming. Every time the player dies, they perform reps of an exercise (you get to choose the exercise).  For instance, I am currently playing Death's Door, a fun game by Acid Nerve (they also created titan souls). Every time I die, I do some type exercise, be it: 10 push-ups, 10 sit-ups, 10 pull-ups (or attempt to)..etc. With Gains Gaming, there is no true loss because even though you lose, through "Gains Gaming", you gain. Like the video game characters we play as, we must continue to become stronger to face any challenge we meet.

Stuck on a boss, every time you lose, do some exercise.  Gamers may feel intense stress when gaming, especially when losing and not doing well, leading to feelings of hopelessness, stress and/or futility which may cause your body to release cortisol into your blood stream. How many times have you said to yourself, "Ugh, I don’t know if I can beat this boss."

Gains Gaming seeks to incorporate healthy physical activity into gaming. We know that exercise is proven to improve one's mood via a release of endorphins. Physical activity may also assist in improving your mood, and acumen leading to out-of-the-box thinking which may be just the tool you need to vanquish the foe or foes impeding your progress.  

Want to try? All you have to do is, commit to performing exercise after each player death. Start off small, 10 push-ups, 10 sit-ups, and try to incorporate other exercises if you get bored of push-ups or sit-ups. In the past, I've incorporated an ab-wheel, resistance bands, and dumb bells. Body weight is always a good weight to use for exercise.

 Games I've tried Gains Gaming with:

God of War

Sekiro Shadows Die Twice

Far Cry 6

Deaths Door

Gains Gaming works well with single-player games where a player can die in the game world. You can also incorporate Gains Gaming into all other gaming genres. Playing multi-player games or fighting games? But how Sway? Did you just lose your match? Do some push-ups. Did you fail to break into the top 10 of the death match? Do some sit-ups. Did you just lose your run in a rouge-like/lite? Do some burpees. 

If you're like me, sometimes you struggle to work-out. Gains Gaming incorporates working out and gaming, to not only better yourself as a gamer but as a person. 

Enjoy Gains Gaming and please share the game you're played and the exercise you're doing per death with the tag #gainsgaming. Together we can have fun working out and gaming.
