31 Days - Day 27: Torch in hand
Hello everyone and welcome to the 27th installment of 31 days. Day 26 was posted, but on our discord (which you should visit by clicking the discord icon at the top of the site). If the reason escapes you, D-toid was down almost all day on the 26th. Anyway, the song for the 27th installment is:
LIT – Classroom 101
The Wii was really something. With sales like that you’re bound to attract attention and some of that translated into great Indies coming to the Wii Shop channel. One of these fantastic games was a horror game known as LIT.
LIT in terms of atmosphere and presence is pretty straight forward. Solve puzzles and combat the darkness that has swallowed your school with light. Not a terrifying game but a game that does capture that horror feel without being ultra-cheesy. The music is also fitting as well and by itself can sound pretty creepy.
For what it is LIT is an above average game. It has some design flaws in that some puzzles seem to be more trial and error rather than actual puzzle work. To me a good puzzle doesn’t rely on any trial and error. A good puzzle provides you with the tools you need to solve it provided you put in the effort. Thankfully this isn’t the norm in LIT and for the most part the puzzle work is done well.
With the Wii Shop winding down for closure I felt this would be a good tune to share. In the midst of all the Mario Fever going around I know most people won’t have much of a chance to check this one out. There still is time though, and the game won’t be completely lost as it has a port on the Play store. Sadly it is inferior to the Wiiware version and chock full of ads. If you want to play this unhindered I highly recommend the Wiiware version.
while you're at it, why not use this as a reason to revisit your Wii-u, that is if super mario odyssey hasn't consumed you yet

A Few things about me
=============================================================
- I'm almost finished with my degree in computer science and I plan on going into independent development and freelancing once I'm done.
- I can be very cynical, but I do try to be positive or curb my negativity. In spite of this I'm actually very jovial in person and I don't get mad often. I would dare say I'm quite happy, even when things seem bleak. I simply don't like industry Bullshit and I'm not one to stand for it, even if it's a game I like.
- I host a series annually called 31 Days where I post 1 horror related or themed video game song a day for the month of october. During this time I also provide keys for games (free of course) to any reader observant enough to find them.
- I've been a member of destructoid since 2010, and a lurker long before then. As such I've seen many people both come and go. Such is the natural order of things.
- I enjoy Art and draw in my spare time
- I also enjoy theatre and films. I especially like Horror movies (both good and bad ones).
- I go camping once or twice a year. I would go out more but my allergies tend to get in the way.
- I don't drink, which may be a surprise to some. I might make a joke or two about it but I stay away from alcohol for my own personal reasons, though you can feel free to drink a pint on my behalf any time you'd like.

I also got a musical piece made for me by the incredible Alphadeus. A little history behind this:
My musical piece came as part of the Songs for Gamers album DLC pack 02. Alphadeus has been making songs for the members of the destructoid community for years already. This past year he opened submissions and I applied. For my meagre efforts I received this lovely piece:
You can find him on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFs2UhJYPVITYWCiqMk-z3w
He also has other venues listed on his profile here, take a look if you are so inclined:

The community is full of people with all kinds of talent and I'm very pleased to be a part of it along with all of you (yes, you too fair reader).
