happy joulth of fuly - did you know you can sing the first noel to the tune of the american national anthem?

man i hate the heat and i hate summertime it doesn't matter how much freetime i have it's impossible for me to get anything done productive or fun i just feel unfocused and annoyed all day

is that why every site runs gargantuanly slow now?? Because we're competing for packets with AI scrapers????

gonna make a game that looks like this

was supposed to have a launch date confirmed for Lurruna this week but it didn't pass Steam review so it'll probably be one more week - I apologize for the delay. Game will definitely be out sometime this month for sure, I can 100% guarantee it.

absolutely fucking outrageous question/answer combo from this game from the 2000s

My only advice regarding emulation or whatever of older platforms is this: Yes, you could just dump an entire platform's library in a folder. But I recommend curating. Because the person gloating about having the entire SNES catalog on their Raspberry Pi is probably only playing Super Mario World.

i think at this time there should be a low-spec alternative console with fully-physical games - no updates, no DRM, etc. gaming as a medium should have something comparable to DVDs. You should be able to walk into a store, buy a box and a disc, and it should run.

Hack your DS/3DS it's easy Hack your PSP Hack your PS Vita it's even easier than the DS Hack your Switch (if you can) Get an anbernic, AYN, Retroid, or other android handheld If you need help and can't find the answers, holler at ya girl

"hey we not-so-sneakily introduced dynamic pricing into our digital store also we're discontinuing Literally All Physical Products and also also you can't even buy the old stuff digitally anymore" thats awesome i think we should kill the sony computer entertainment corporation

bluray discs cost nothing to manufacture what are we even doing

Please donate to or commission Laura if you can, she's cool peoples.

SMALL NUMBERS!! Shining Force and (don't hate me) Paper Mario got this so right. I like it when 10 damage feels like I'm grazing the world with fire.

got bored while waiting for my car at the shop

I think star fox is getting such high praise from everyone because people forgot games don’t have to feel mildly like homework

"Do you kiss your mother with that mouth" is an idiom we gotta bring back. A lot of stupid awful things ppl would say they'd sheepishly back out of if they had to say it to their mom

miss this flavor of arcade games

working hard or hardly working?

one more bonus

For those unaware of pinball, Jersey Jack is a MAGA company that ran a Make Pinball Great Again marketing campaign and also recently released the Harry Potter pinball machine If it were licensed by like, any other pinball company this would be exciting but like Fuck Jersey Jack

Usually I just use game music when making trailers but for this next Lurruna trailer I decided to make an original song

FNAF is ontologically evil because it's so hyper-tuned for neurodivergent children to fixate on instead of healthy things like tertiary dragon ball characters, video quality, sora and riku kissing, color balancing and sonic the hedgehog

Traditional art teaches you so many virtues. You will stop pressing crazy hard on your tablet and hurting your wrist. You will get faster and more confident in your art because you won’t rely on undo tools anymore. Yes, learning new skills is difficult and frustrating, but it’s so rewarding.

Ethervil's been kind enough to do a demo preview of my games so I just wanna shout-out and say thank-you to them 🙏

Here's my Let's Try of the #SteamNextFest #Demo of #LURRUNA - The Island of Towering Automatons (PC), a 2D "classicvania" action #platformer, in-development by @pd-cgt.bsky.social. #IndieGame #Gaming www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qiow...

I can't believe the Kart racer aimed at children didn't sell well at $70. And the game aimed at an old school hardcore audience that ended up actually being shallow and easy also didn't work out, that's crazy.

this is going to sound weird from someone whose job is literally playing retro games for hours on end but i do think that while "you can play PS2 games for the rest of your life and never run out" is a healthy way to ride out this hostile period in gaming history, we still need like...new games lol

y'know, what's interesting here is that SEGA is pretty directly acknowledging that the problem isn't game quality, but marketing, and honestly I'd kinda rather they have that takeaway than start doing massive changes to their development strategies again

So apparently #MegaMan Universe was meant to introduce these two as new sisters to Rock and Roll, but they got scrapped alongside everything else. I wanted to take a stab at'em for funsies. #RockMan #Art #OpenCommissions #Commissions.

i should play spark the electric jester 2 and 3, i keep telling myself i need more sega-esque platformers and then i keep forgetting to play those

you still need to change the world

Happy 35th birthday, Treasure. Here is the drawing I did for their 30th. 🎉

Art for Lurruna's Steam page. Was going for kind of a Wonder Boy vibe and its sibling Adventure Island. Love the way those games just have a bunch of enemies ganging up on the MC in the box art.

the only bad part about watching A Modern Piece Of Entertainment is that the algorithm forces me to perceive the opinions of 14-year-olds and spiritually-14 adults against my will
