When my Vizio TV is inactive for too long, it USED to play soothing images of nature or spectacular helicopter shots of cities. Eventually, these were replaced with lightly-animated, AI images of artificial nature, and uncanny "cozy-vibe cafes." Now I have an AI Jimmy John's on my screen.

I'm getting kind of tired of Pokemon TCGP. I don't even play the game anymore, I just pull the cards. I'll probably quit soo- GOOMY EVENT???????? MY ICON CAN BE GOOMY?!?!

Saw this at Galaxy's Edge.

Given that the only Tomb Raider games I've played have been: 1. Tomb Raider (1996) 2. Tomb Raider (2007 Remake) 3. Tomb Raider (2013 Reboot) I look forward to adding Tomb Raider (2026 Remake) to my list. ...I suppose I should also add Tomb Raider (2024 Remaster) to my list too...

Not bad for my first round.

I finished making my first game, Egg Roll. It’s about rolling a newly hatched chick (who is stuck in his egg) back to his nest. Watch the trailer here: youtu.be/K2qMGHbgV9w Download it here for Android and PC: spacepig22.itch.io/egg-roll It’s pay what you want (which basically means it’s free).

A bit late, but @heydianawillett.bsky.social (left) and I (right) have carved pumpkins every year. Here are the past 4 years: (I'll never be able to top my Kappa Mikey pumpkin)

Remember how Weird Al would make celebrity interviews by cutting answers from real interviews and inserting his own questions? Well I thought it would be really funny to do one to him. Watch my new video here: youtu.be/ghymOOlSvCw

I pulled the best immersive card last night (Actually, somehow I pulled 2 of them).

Some people wanted to know how I put the DK sprites in the gameplay and I finally had some free time so I made a low-effort, unlisted follow-up to my tutorial. It's nothing fancy, a lot of tedious hand-keying, but there are a few tips in there: youtu.be/svDjZYnQx9E

New video on my channel. Learn how to make prerendered SNES sprites by seeing how I made (and remade) Shigeru Miyamoto's DK design in the DKC style. I tried to make it entertaining for people with no interest in following the tutorial, but informative for those who do. youtu.be/3PVnKZr0x3o

Tomorrow I'm releasing a tutorial on how I made those DKC-style sprites. In other words... "ONE day."

In my opinion, the best subtle gag in my Kappa Mikey video is that after mentioning a Lily x Paul McCartney fanfic I read once, every time I mention the Beatles afterward (twice), I edited Lily next to Paul.

I thought it would be fun to share an animated clip from the last YouTube video I made, which talked about an obscure show I watched in high school called "Kappa Mikey." In this clip, I describe how I discovered the show, and why I made an eight (let me repeat... EIGHT!) hour video about it.

When I made that DKC video I did the bare minimum, which meant a lot of sprites (especially for DK Jr) were missing. This time I made EVERY sprite 1 to 1 from the original game, and they WILL be on Spriter's Resource for anyone to use for any purpose (maybe a romhack? hint hint).

The video I made where I replaced Donkey Kong Country's sprites with DK's Shigeru Miyamoto design JUST made it to TWO MILLION views! Thank you! To celebrate (and because I'm hyped for that new DK game) I'm making a tutorial video, and in the process I've remastered the sprites. Here's a sneak peak:

I was feeling a little down on my latest animation. It didn't look QUITE the way I wanted, but then I found a caricature I did of myself around 10 years ago, and I have improved a lot since then! ...And that's not even mentioning the one from 15 years ago! (I THINK that's supposed to be me?)

19 years ago today, Kappa Mikey premiered. Did you know this show had an unmade episode? Did you know an early design was accidentally left in a few shots? Did you even know this show existed? Learn everything you ever wanted to know about Kappa Mikey in my new video: youtu.be/jCG6eBYt13g?...

What's wrong with this image and why? Find out tomorrow when I release a new video to my channel: youtube.com/spacepig22

You people have no idea what's in store in the video I'm about to release in 2 days. The sheer amount of useless trivia I have surrounding this obscure show is... concerning. Between this image and yesterday's I'm sure you can guess the show. See it on my channel in 2 days: youtube.com/spacepig22

I've been working on this in my free time for quite a while, and I'm excited to announce that in three days I'll finally be releasing a new video to my YouTube channel, in which I will talk for WAY too long about a show I used to watch in high school. www.youtube.com/spacepig22

Looking at my old tweets to see what I can bring over: I drew this Gravity Falls fanart YEARS ago (2016), inspired by Alex Hirsch's charity livestream "reveal" of the very canon Human Bill Cipher.

Hey everyone, I'm Mike. I'm a 3D artist, hobbyist video game maker, and I'm finally leaving that other website. I'm going to try to post more often than I usually do, so look forward to some of the weird stuff I've been cooking up!
