Oh!! Another highlight of 2025 was doing my first ever podcast recording! I got to talk about one of my very favorite games with the wonderful @hamishsteele.bsky.social on Super Mario Moment. Now that I've got one podcast under my belt, I don't think I'll be quite so nervous next time I join in ✨

Two paintings I did this year! I don't paint often, usually only once or twice a year, but it is always extremely fulfilling when I do. Doraemon was a gift for @scifiexplosion.bsky.social and Bowser was inspired by my appearance on @supermariomoment.bsky.social.

Here's my guy Morton

Both Mario RPG and Paper Mario feel very Christmassy. A focus on stars, wishes, toys brought to life and a general cosiness with a dark edge makes both games feel like Christmas present. On SMM we unearthed some pitches for Mario RPG 2 and previous guest @drewgmackie.bsky.social goes deeper:

One hour to go until the premiere of our Christmas episode! Please join us and take part in trying to answer these bizarre Mario general knowledge questions and consider donating to our charities! www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCPL...

Cannot wait for everyone to finally see how deeply stupid I actually am (for charity!)

The Nintendo Switch version of Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker contains a model of a realistic man, called "Male". Despite Male being from a Nintendo 3DS development kit, the Switch version is the only one he appears in.
