All articles are better when you can credibly and smoothly flow a "This sucks!" into them. Kudos, @nathangrayson.bsky.social.

It's been offline for a couple of months due to hosting issues, but the Video Game Soda Machine Project archive is back online again. If you've ever wanted to browse through more than 3,000 screenshots of soda machines from video games dating back as far as 1983, this is the site for you.

Old Nokia phones are a special kind of nostalgia. Fun, yet tough as battleships.

People that can art (sound art, image art, word art, you name it) are the best, and the only future worth fighting for must include foundations for them to stand upon and live to create, not create to live. Anything less is unworthy of the "civilization" label.

I mean this with great affection as someone who loves video games precisely because they are often the most ridiculous shit ever. But god, Kingdom Hearts well and truly is the most ridiculous shit ever.

For seasoning your weekend, I recommend a five-to-ten minute dash of Super Hexagon to add that Chipzel heat and Cavanagh bite.

don't be so shocked, kid

Just a couple of masters showing off the craft they are best known for.

Happy weekend, everyone! What cool to-dos have you got planned?

My #WomensHistoryMonth edition of Localization Lore is up! Check it out to learn more about some of the ladies who were active in the J>E video game localization industry during the early 90s, including the origins behind "You spoony bard!"

I spent some of this week making an I/O system for level scripting in Unreal for @sleightofhand.game! I have long had thoughts on why these kick ass. Here's an unusually long blog post on: -why these kick ass -why they are necessary -how mine works -etc etc www.joewintergreen.com/i-o-systems-...

Thinking of going back to the C prompt on Sunday. What are your favorite DOS games?

It’s crazy how there were all these 8 and 16 bit UK platformer games and NOT ONE of them had a good jump! When I finally played some Mario I was like ‘oh’

Huge congrats to gaming legends Deborah Todd and @matthewcostello.bsky.social on their marriage! 💍 Per Matt, "we did rock, paper, scissors to determine who’d read the vows first."

Not me. I'm walking in 10 runs because of pitch clock penalties because I refuse to close out a Team USA win until they play all seven minutes of "A More Perfect Union" by Titus Andronicus

Blessed are the eBayers who pack their sales in multiple layers, for they protect precious cargo from the violent wrath of Poseidon. The first two layers of this package were utterly ruined. Two layers deeper, these slept, safe and dry!

Enjoying @thepluckysquire.bsky.social with Babycrab, who it turns out, might have a knack for QA!

i think of the hallways. RE1 and especially RE2. claustrophobic, cramped, there's even frequently a bunch of shit in the way to make your movement path all the more limited. running past enemies feels incredibly tense with these narrow spaces (amplified by tank controls! made you feel weak! good!).

Rosewater seems to have a slight exposure problem. Great reviews, discounted 25%, and yet sales have been minimal. If you’ve played it and enjoyed it, please help spread the word! store.steampowered.com/app/1226670/...

Went to clean up the Music Room and these were on the table?

I'm sure it's been noted already, but with Friday the 13th, Pi Day, and the Ides of March, I think this is the most thematically knife-y a weekend can possibly get.

Wondering if Babycrab is old enough to take care of a PET.

If we missed syncing up at GDC, don't worry! I'm not real. (15 seconds of dead silence before the timeline scroll continues, the post mysteriously vanishing)

Typical Dan, posting righteous indignation.

Had one recently with coffee ice cream instead of vanilla. Could feel my heart rattling my ribcage like a cartoon prisoner with a tin cup and iron bars.
