Lost Gems 8: A Boy and His Blob


So sorry for having a few months on inactiveness but I am back. And today at GVN we are going to have a look back at one of the oddest and most original games released for the Nintendo Entertainment System, A Boy and His Blob. A game that as the years passed, more and more people became aware of this game but still forgot about.

News from the graveyard.

I'm not gone I am still around. I haven't been around the past 3 weeks because it was crunch time. I got married two fridays ago(Sept 7th). Anyway things have settled down somewhat and I will return to setting up the last GVN event of the year, actually write up my next lost gems article and get back to work on GVN as a whole.
