Project Gorgon Blog Entry #1: Skeletons, Obelisks, and a Mysterious Island
I awoke on an island with nothing on me and a bad case of a headache that I haven’t felt in a long time. There was nothing around save for a bag that to my surprise had a sword and some food in
it. With that alone, I was ready to make it through this strange new world and find myself off this land. Tons of skeletons patroled the outskirts and I put my sword to the test. Strangely there was a sense of familiarity to it. With each swing, I can feel myself becoming stronger and stronger. A long time passes and I am absolutely spent, but there is something towards the center of this place, a lighthouse. I make my way towards it.Arriving to it, to my surprise I found a man, Elmetaph. Even stranger is that he remembered me somehow. He didn’t have much to say though, nothing useful at least, save for me having a girlfriend/wife. I asked Elmetaph if there was a way off this island and he said there was, he also had the means to do it. First I’d need to get an amethyst gem and then I would need to find four obelisks and write down the coordinates. Finding them didn’t prove to be too much of an effort, like clockwork, I found the gem in a bag near a teleportation platform, and I climbed to the highest peak to see where the obelisks were. I went back to Elm (I’m close enough to him to make a nickname now) and bam, I gave him the coordinates, and that is where the money shot was. Elm taught me how to teleport, and sent me on my way to the teleportation platform. Once I made it there I used up all of my strength and recalled myself, landing in Serbule.
North of Serbule, I saw a village/keep and decided to visit. I was not expecting what I saw, a town filled with people. People were jamming out on their guitars, others were dancing. I stood in awe as people were coming and going every which way. It was truly a sight to behold. I visited some shops and got the lay of the land, as I traveled outside of the keep, I noticed a blue teleportation portal.
My adventure was just beginning.

My first console I started on was the Atari 2600, and it was my brothers. Years later, we received the Nintendo Entertainment System from our mom. I still remember the day and giving her a great big hug. The NES changed everything, no longer were we controlling squares and hearing blips and bloops. ( I was too young to understand it anyways) Instead characters came to life and all kinds of catchy melodies came out from our television.
Our Nintendo came with R.O.B. the robot which was kind of useless, since he was so slow to move, It was supposed to function with the included Gyromite. It was probably the first form of Co-op gaming we had. Thankfully Super Mario Bros and Duck Hunt also came with the system.
So we had an NES, followed by a Master System, Genesis, SNES, 32x, Sega CD, and so on and so on. Shout out to J&J Video Games for making trading-in Video Games possible. It was a store at the local flea market plaza. If it wasn’t for them I would not have played as many games as I did.
Mega Man 2 to this day still stands as my favorite game. The variety of bosses, the music and power ups, and the level design were all top notch. I played it so much that I was able to beat it with just one life. Not really a hard achievement considering the USA’s normal mode was actually Japan’s easy mode, and difficult was Japan’s normal.
So there you have it, I hope to post often on the current games I’m playing and making this a gaming journal even if no one else reads it.
Thank You for your time, and I hope you enjoy the site.
