Charge Cycles - Charger Insertion
Theresa - cirropod
Hollow Knight - Greenpath

This was a fantastic day for the contest and I even have a lot of respect for the things I voted against. Let's start from the bottom and work our way up:

At present, I have very little time to sit down and actually play a video game, which makes my sessions with Hollow Knight (the only game I've played in the last two months) all the more meaningful. Greenpath immediately stands out in my mind--both the music and the environment itself. There's a horribly melancholy cast over even the most conventionally beautiful things in the world of Hallownest, as it falls further and further to an infection that rewrites the minds and bodies of its inhabitants. I find myself returning to Greenpath above all else, mostly to reflect on my real-world situations, fears, responsibilities, so forth etcetera. I think about how absolutely titanic the challenges in my life appear to be, and the looming anxiety that I don't have the strength or skill set necessary to approach them with confidence. You'll never really know what you're capable of until you stop hiding and charge into the unknown ahead. The bench might be cozy, but you can't stay there forever.
...Maybe that got a little away from me. I'm still glad that I said it.

ZZZV, from what I've heard through the contest and in personal exploration, has an enigmatic and completely original understanding of their art. I have to wonder what kinds of emotions you'd feel, or what kinds of experiences you'd have, to create an escape from the world as-is and mold it into the form of cirropod. 'Alien' is a word that is associated with ZZZV-- I disagree. I feel like I've been here before. And while I can't place it now, it'll eventually explode into memory, with every intimate detail in its right place. Some day, maybe.

I wish I had more to say about Charger Insertion. I wish I could UNDERSTAND Charger Insertion. But maybe it's better that I don't, and just keep myself in this place of absolute awe and inspiration. Thank you.
