the ancient bushido art of scoring a home run on a 4-ton sandworm

Por distanciarme del discurso que estoy viendo: me gustan Gone Home y Life is Strange y me pillé Mixtape porque por las buenas críticas pensaba que me gustaría, pero no me ha hecho click en casi ningún sentido, más allá de que valoro que la presentación y la producción del juego son chulas.

Mixtape me ha dejado helado. Este tipo de juegos siempre me ha gustado pero no he conectado nada ni con los personajes, ni con el setting, ni la trama. Me ha dejado la impresión de ejercicio de nostalgia hueco sin nada que decir.

i'm starting a new series, called "unusual jump sound effects used in videogames". i will post new discoveries in this thread to start, we have "Techno Cop" on the Amiga [ youtu.be/KPCZqXBgRj8?... ]

Plague: In the Maze of the Mind is a 1996 Italian first person... virtual surgeon game? You run around a virtual Rome (patient's brains), gathering ideas to bring them back to where they belong, while killing animals (viruses). Strange and repetitive, but running around in lowpoli Rome? Love it.

microsoft developers using SteamOS running Windows-native games through compatibility layers AS A BENCHMARK for their new Windows K2 optimizations is one of the funniest fucking things to happen thus far in this current iteration of the OS war

I choose to believe this is how most 90s arcade race tracks were initially conceived #gaming #retrogaming #arcade

El cantante de los Strokes, Julian Casablancas, está COMPLETAMENTE DESATADO:

*da golpes a Pragmata como si fuera un melón* Pues ha salido bueno.

Quería decir offline, pero autocorrector.

Me está dando un derrame cerebral intentando jugar al modo online del Battlefield 6. Cómo puede ser tan MALA la experiencia de usuario.

Good news! OpenAI is canceling so many large purchase orders and datacenter expansions that the global price of RAM is dropping.

schools should have a mandatory course in tank control gaming so that i don't have to hear people keep complaining about it

Palabros 1.2 is out today! Offline dictionaries, bilingual mode, and lots of UI and UX improvements across the app. Probably the biggest update to Palabros so far, and a strong foundation for what’s coming next :D

Great article if you need a daily dose of sense of wonder to help you with the day.

This has become my favorite indie side-scroller. The quality of the level design, the constant set-pieces, the feeling of adventure thanks to how deep and satisfying the exploration is, the bosses. All is amazing. And yeah, the difficulty is high but it ultimately encourages mastery, which I like.

Climate change doesn't exist but here in the Canary Islands we've been under constant rains and storms for 4 months straight, in a microclimate which is suppossed to have 20ºC for pretty much the whole year.

I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!

I'm really glad to see Mama's Sleeping Angels, Funi Raccoon Game and Lucid Blocks all doing well on Steam this week. Three incredibly weird games about exploring unhinged dreamscapes. One online co-op, one screwball comedy, one unsettling procedural sandbox. All selling well with great user-reviews

If you're wondering how bad things were at Pixar for women, the answer is pretty horrifyingly bad.

Buenos días

Vamos con el hilo: ✨ Escapando de las tecno-oligarcas, versión europea ✨ La idea es buscar alternativas a las mega apps o servicios que dominan un sector, y que además sean europeas, para que nuestro dinero y datos no vayan siempre a las mismas. No es fácil, pero salen cosas interesantes.

¿Os acordáis de la turra infinita que dieron los fachones del PP y todo su tertulianado con esto y con Irene Montero? Mirad ahora.

I just bought this exclusively based on how much I liked that integration of Godzilla's roar.

Algo que echo bastante de menos en mi TL es leer e interactuar con gente a la que le vayan los jueguitos de mesa, si conocéis a gente a la que le vaya la movida o comente cosas interesantes sobre ella, se agradecen recomendaciones ✨

Martes de textazo de @sydmus.bsky.social Nos habla de Phil in the Mirror y de todo un género de videojuegos "listitos" y qué se puede hacer para que el género avance sin ser un timador ni seguir modas. Lean, lean, lean niveloculto.com/columna-phil...

Why do I have to pretend that I'm going to print something in order to save it as a PDF. Why do I have to engage in a little ruse.

Deseando con intensidad que Sirat no se lleve nada en los Óscar porque valiente putísima mierda de película que me pareció.

This one hits hard.

I commend the capacity of Marty Supreme of having me give a shit about one of the the biggest pieces of trash as a character. What a good movie. Superb direction, pacing and music throughout the whole movie.

as part of RPGMaker Festival 2026, my videogame Fallow is 75% off on Steam until Feb 23!

Hoy queremos denunciar las actividades y malas prácticas que ha realizado Gisela Vaquero (Jellyworld Games) impunemente durante años. Malas prácticas laborales, falsos autónomos, abuso de alumnado en prácticas, impagos a profesionales, y uso del material sin tener los derechos.

¿A vosotros también os pasa que al escribir un 8 a veces el lazo no se cruza o soy el único con esta enfermedad mental?

Loving how Romeo is a Dead Man has UI design from like 37 different games and all of them are slick as hell.

I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.

He retomado mi partida de Nier Replicant en el timeskip, justo 5 años después de mi último guardado. Según el juego, esta partida es de mayo de 2021. Con curiosidad por ver cómo afecta al feeling de la narrativa replicar el salto en tiempo real.

Esto ya es pasarse, no?

Really good essay on dealing with grief and losing friends in middle age, and how our social networks aren't as equipped to deal with the loss of a friend as the loss of a parent. From @jilleduffy.bsky.social hellogloria.com/essays/the-g...

As both a video and boardgame player sometimes you encounter funny stuff. I just bought the expansion (one could say DLC) for Radlands, a Mad Max themed card game, which quite literally asks you to *patch* the old rule booklet by putting stickers over the now obsolete rules lol

Feels really weird to be watching a hidden gem compilation video and discover that an old twitter friend that suddenly closed its account and disappeared has released a game in Steam??? store.steampowered.com/app/3664160/...
