A top-down hack-and-slash game based on the Gauntlet franchise but with different controls, abilities and general gameplay.

This seemed like a good idea at the time, but turned out to be a pretty shitty experience. Not recommended.

I’ve played this exact same thing as a free flash game. Except the controls were a hell of a lot better with that one.

Shaving >

TL;DR, the Henson AL13 is highly recommended.

I’ve had a traditional safety razor for some years now.

I switched to a traditional safety razor out of a fascination with the old nature of it, but it turns out to be a vastly more simple and cost effective shave.

As I don’t like to have a lot of “moving parts” in my life, keeping to simplicity, not having to go out and buy huge disposable razors or packs of itsy bitsy six-blade-and-shaving-strip shaving heads and cans of shaving foam is appealing to me.

I had done significant research before, and now I’m collecting all the notes in one place.

Although I had been looking at using straight razor.. it’s expensive, dangerous, difficult to use and maintain and the entire kit has too many objects.

Rather old, but still awesome.
