i don't know why people will vehemently go to bat for gacha games. yes you can get everything for free by pouring in a large amount of time. yes its very format also seeks to exploit people with addictive personality and completionists. no it's not anti-art to not like gacha lmao

🟥!!NEW VIDEO!!🟥 In which I talk about a Silent Hill game that is “nothing like its predecessors”, but also the (im)perfect distillation of each and every one of them. There’s also more footage of me playing Playstation Vita than you will ever see for the rest of your life. youtu.be/7heyKOO5L8c?...

The Matrix Online (2005, PC)

the prerelease build for Evil Egg is now live on Steam. download the demo to play it. store.steampowered.com/app/3651950/...

this video has started getting a lot of views in the last couple days after being dead for the last 5 months. pretty odd but i guess i'll take it!

MY GAME BRAZILIAN DRUG DEALER 3 I OPENED A PORTAL TO HELL IN THE FAVELA TRYING TO REVIVE MIT AIA I NEED TO CLOSE IT IS TODAY'S DAILY DEAL!!!! store.steampowered.com/app/3191050/ #games #indiedev #gamedev #boomershooter #indie #fps #indiegame

one of my fave 1.6 maps, so good

probably obvious coming from me, but this is good, you should watch it!

NEW VIDEO! The Matrix Online is one of the strangest dead MMOs I've explored. This "travel diary" includes unexpected finds, bizarre level design and even a dance party to wrap it all up, giving back a lil bit of life to this abandoned world... youtu.be/Dnihn_xy3Tk

played 3 or 4 hours of this today and it's very good, def recommend checking it out if you're into first person dungeon crawls

You guys no longer have an excuse!

this is a good video! i also played boku for the first time last month, in this same once-a-day manner. i think when you hear the concept for this game, it's easy to imagine something that plays out mostly the same for everyone, but i loved hearing how differently each day went from mine. good stuff

i pretty much don't like puzzle games as a rule but i fuckin *love* picross and every single picross-like ever. gimme all the boxfillslop

New video! Remember the Intellivsion Amico? Believe it or not, it isn't dead. In fact, three Amico exclusive games recently got ported to Nintendo Switch! Are they any good? Let's find out, in maybe the stupidest episode of Port Patrol yet! youtu.be/rsQmZbCPdQA

007: The World is Not Enough (2000, N64)

in my city, people will colloquially refer to specific kroger locations in this way. i can tell someone i am going to "gay kroger" and they will know which one i mean

best game of september just dropped hellll yeaaa (not a joke this game owns lol) store.steampowered.com/app/3208560/...

I really want to write something about how some people have just developed really unhealthy relationships with videogames. Like the gaming equivalent of people who drink Baijiu or buy those Challenge Hot Chips just so they can be part of the social zeitgeist even if it just causes them misery.

very belated (i played the demo months ago) but it's crazy how excited i am for angeline era's release. it falls right into the psychic category of "travel games" i have stored in my mind. a game not focused on traveling per say but rather on the feeling traveling gives you-

I was just thinking about how today would be the perfect day for you to learn all about the Desperate Housewives game and why it's so good

every allie meowy video is so good dude

Brush Burial: Gutter World (Demo) (2025, PC)

i checked my channel on restricted mode and literally every video is gone lol. my channel is quite small obv and the new vid did better than my other stuff, but i do wonder if this had any impact on it. i swear i'm not being greedy i just want to be out from the shadow of the old HL mods vid haha

yeah, and apparently this type of game is called a "METROIDVANIA"... y'know, like a mix of METROID and CASTLEVANIA? (zoom in) except, what kinda dumbshit name is that?! what, are we gonna start calling platformers "MARIOSONICS"? i mean who comes up with this shit? (chugs beer)

New post! This week I, certified Koji Shiraishi freak, gave into my obsession and wrote 2k words about his latest heater to hit the theater, Kinki. Plus thoughts on how the movie fits into his career, the state of modern J-horror, and the physicality of art! Read it here!

New Darksides video! A Queer Reading of Brain Damage youtu.be/tXwUoTJJAW4

youtube loves changing their TV app to make things slightly worse, it's very funny. today, the placement of the subscriptions category was just swapped with the music one. recently they changed your subscription list from alphabetical order, to (seemingly), completely random. good stuff!

just finished playing this demo, it's great. love the outfits and cute little house your character has, immediately gives them a lot of personality. gameplay is very expressive too; you can climb basically anything and have unlimited slowmo which is neat. also you kill dudes with your thighs.

Finally got the chance to sit down with this and you really can not miss this one (or really any of mantron's videos) wonderful presentation for an absolutely fascinating topic that more than anything just instills the deep deep desire in me to keep seeking out interesting art

clive is retroactively just Verso We Have at Home

i just got one of these last week and i really love it. haven't made "soup" yet but it is *very* good for cold brew. takes like 5 minutes and imo tastes just as good as the overnight steep method

this was wild to me when ER came out. saw so many people like "hate the souls games but i bought ER today to see what the hype is about!" on one hand i guess i can respect trying something you are skeptical of, but also i can't imagine spending 60$ on a game i am nearly certain i won't like lol

on paper I should love Hollow Knight, and I've tried a few times over the years, but it just doesn't do it for me. put me in a room with Ultros, Lost Crown, Steamworld Dig 1/2, 9 years of Shadow, pretty much any metroidvania of the last decade, I think I'd replay any of them before HK! sorry lol

i try pretty much every arpg that comes out, this is one of the better ones imho, great game

Hey! I'm Baxter and I've got a blog called Tsundoku Diving that's my little heaven for fans of Japanese media. There's deep dive essays, subs for obscure films, scanlations of alt manga, an archive of movie pamphlets, 150+ hand picked recs, and even some of my own fiction! Jump in & swim around :)

The Play for Peace bundle is now out! Help provide aid to those who really need it. Two of my games (Lavender Birth and Standup for Aliens) are included in the bundle, but there are hundreds of amazing titles here, all in support of raising money for Gaza. Check it out!

lmao

youtube tried recommending me a video where there's footage of terranigma is in 16:9 super eagle and I slammed that do not recommend channel button so hard

my brain basically has an HP bar that slowly drains throughout the year until i watch this trailer again

my first podcast appearance!! my friends at the Bog Frog let me absolutely ruin their lovely show with an unhinged NSFW deep dive into one of the most unique mangaka there is Listen or DIE

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Shito Ikusei (1999, WonderSwan)

a quiet spot for you to rest & save your progress💙

someone just pointed out to me in my comments that this song from the first DMC uses the same sample as the "another world" theme from Peaces Like Us (about 44 seconds in), i am losing my mind www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAca...

you've GOTTA watch this video. i never thought i'd see anyone cover KS' work, it's really one of a kind

hey this rules
