## Projects
|
|
|
|
I have started my slow journey into Golang and spend an skill boost day at work doing some stuff with it. Ended up
|
|
with a lot of tabs open but it was the most fun I have had for a while! If you're curious the result is on my
|
|
[gurl repository](https://github.com/fmartingr/gurl), it's not complete (or useful) by any means, but I want to
|
|
expand it with new _features_ while I learn some more.
|
|
|
|
In my spare time I've been working on a simple program to manage my game's screenshots, I have a lot over several
|
|
computers/operating systems and I want to organize them better to publish them on an online gallery. I'm starting
|
|
to enjoy Go quite a bit the more I do with it, even if it's only minor stuff.
|
|
|
|
## Books
|
|
|
|
- [**The Magicians' Guild**](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28249.The_Magicians_Guild) (_Trudi Canavan_)
|
|
|
|
Started again from the beginning, I just need to fit the reading habit into my schedule.
|
|
|
|
## TVShows and Movies
|
|
|
|
- [**The social dilemma**](https://www.netflix.com/title/81254224)
|
|
|
|
An interesting movie/documental about how social networks are not our friends. They didn't provide me with
|
|
anything I didn't knew, but should be interesting for less _techy_ people to watch and understand they are
|
|
the product.
|
|
|
|
- [**Star Wars: The Phantom Menace**](https://www.disneyplus.com/movies/star-wars-the-phantom-menace-episode-i/2ezYynkgW1AH)

|
|
- [**Bones**](https://www.primevideo.com/detail/0HBVL22LMA40B0XBY30RUOC9EH/)
|
|
|
|
Our new show for lunch/dinner/off time. Player 2 totally loves this and was very happy to know we could watch
|
|
it in order, since on the TV Channels they emit it here episodes seem to be randomized for some reason, so you
|
|
could watch an episode of the second season followed by another from the last one.
|
|
|
|
## Games
|
|
|
|
- [**Final Fantasy VII: Remake**](https://store.playstation.com/es-es/product/EP0082-CUSA07187_00-FFVIIREMAKE00000)
|
|
|
|
I finally put an end to it. [My review in a separate post](/blog/2020/10/15/final-fantasy-vii-remake-my-review/)
|
|
|
|
- [**A Short Hike**](https://www.nintendo.es/Juegos/Programas-descargables-Nintendo-Switch/A-Short-Hike-1821799.html)
|
|
|
|
A short (as the name implies) adventure of the path to hike a mountain and all the people you met in between. Love the art style and the simplicity of the game.
|
|
Liked the idea of having the achievements directly on the switch too, in-game. (I miss that from Steam on the Switch)
|
|
I'm a fan of this kind of games you can enjoy and put an end to them in a few hours.
|
|
|
|
- [**Terraria**](https://store.steampowered.com/app/105600/Terraria/)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We managed to **complete it**. Which in our case meant getting al achievements. It was a really fun
|
|
ride! This game is easily one of my favourites and for the price you can get it is completely a must, you get
|
|
an incredible amount of content and entertainment, better played with friends!
|
|
|
|
- [**Starbound**](https://store.steampowered.com/app/211820/Starbound/)
|
|
|
|
Terraria, but in **space**! And I have a MECH!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- [**Graveyard Keeper**](https://www.nintendo.es/Juegos/Programas-descargables-Nintendo-Switch/Graveyard-Keeper-1579157.html)
|
|
|
|
Got this for the Switch because it was supposed to be more linear and light than Stardew Valley, but upon
|
|
starting I got tons of things to do and it got a bit overwhelming for me right now, wanted something more
|
|
lightweight to play at the moment. On hold for now.
|
|
|
|
- [**10 mg :)**](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1425380)
|
|
|
|
This is a really small game (10mg stands for 10 minute games) as a tribute to the arcade classics with some kind of twist.
|
|
I got near 20 minutes of gameplay from this and it was fun to go through it :)
