I was surprised to see there wasn't that much 8-bit art of The Amazing Digital Circus... so here you go:

Spent 2 hours trying to get a horse into Zora's Domain (BOTW) today:

April Fools Day may be over, but I think misinformation about Sonic the Hedgehog is something we can enjoy all year round! I laughed at my own jokes way too much while making it. I dunno if that means it's good, or just that I had fun, but... here you go! youtu.be/exl1Qj1v7pg

The spirit of Sam E. Sega visited me in my dreams and bestowed me with some stupendous, FANTABulous, ABSOLUTELY INCREDulous Sonic trivia to share with you all! youtu.be/exl1Qj1v7pg

Ok, so, as soon as I saw that Nvidia DLSS 5 demo (and specifically Digital Foundry talking about how great it was), I felt compelled to make a short about it. It was genuinely embarrassing: youtube.com/shorts/oxTtm...

Ok, I know everyone's dunking on this... but I can't get over how bad it looks. I AUDIBLY gasped at how bad the Hogwarts Legacy stuff was! Half of this is DEEP in the gross, uncanny valley, and the other half just looks like they turned up the contrast (by way too much).

I made another short, this time pointing out an interesting quirk in Portal 1 that I didn't see too many people talking about. It possibly hints at an older draft of a joke, or maybe a mistake on the developers' part. youtube.com/shorts/OkhQx...

Do you remember Kappa Mikey, the obscure Nicktoons Network show? Probably. Do you remember Kappa Mikey's even more obscure spin-off show, Dancing Sushi? Probably not. youtube.com/shorts/TZq1c...

Don't ask me how, but I found the scripts for several early season 2 episodes of Kappa Mikey. I watched each episode side by side with the script to find any changes that were made between writing and final product. youtube.com/shorts/RRmcf...

Trivia most people already know is that Kappa Mikey was originally going to be an teen/adult show on MTV. As a lifelong fan, it was SURREAL to be scrolling one night and suddenly see Kappa Mikey be relevant again, when the MTV pilot leaked in 2017. youtube.com/shorts/mf4Ep...

Kappa Mikey's pilot where Mikey goes to Japan is called "The Lost Pilot." This is because they attempted to make the pilot first, but there were issues, so it had to be delayed and redone. Clips from the original version of the pilot can be seen in the sizzle reel: youtube.com/shorts/sNKcU...

Kapa Mikey was such a unique show, and in a lot of ways, it was ahead of the curve. This snippet from my 8 hour video is from the episode where Mikey and Guano are upset that they BUTCHERED the English dub of the anime they work on: youtube.com/shorts/r-Sob...

The best part of art is the human element. In an interview, Carrie Keranen (Mitsuki's voice actress) recounts a blooper in the recording booth. I made an animatic to illustrate it: youtube.com/shorts/n2WY8...

This is the silliest of all the shorts I've made, but you know how it is when there's some small, strange detail in an animation and you wonder why it is the way it is: youtube.com/shorts/bfSuc...

I love seeing ideas that go unused, so I was really excited to find a storyboard in Travis Cowsill's portfolio with so many changes from the final that it's almost unrecognizable. youtube.com/shorts/5LPHR...

And I only had to pull the same pack 200 times!

On Feb 25th, it will be Kappa Mikey's 20th anniversary. But today, Feb 16th, is the Kappa Karaoke Movie's 18th anniversary. No 1 to 3 minute segment of my karaoke review was interesting enough on its own for a short... So here's a bunch of Kappa Mikey music trivia: youtube.com/shorts/emCxU...

Kappa Mikey is a reference-heavy show. This isn't even a fraction of the references they make, and even in the full 8-hour video I'm sure I missed a lot: youtube.com/shorts/4klgN...

Happy Valentine's Day! In honor of the day we celebrate love, today's Kappa Mikey short is about my high school OTP (and another popular ship that's fine): youtube.com/shorts/WbdHi...

One episode of Kappa Mikey is a parody of the Japanese movie Rashomon, where everyone tells the same story from their own twisted perspective. I thought it would be fun to show all the events happening simultaneously from a more objective point of view. youtube.com/shorts/l0snR...

An American-cartoon character gets a job on an Anime show. That's the basic premise of Kappa Mikey... and come to think of it, this probably should have been the 1st short I uploaded instead of the 12th. Oh well. youtube.com/shorts/uyqDf...

I don't know how content farms do it. Like, I'm committed to this bit of posting 1 short a day until the 20th anniversary, but it still feels weird. Yet some spam like 10 AI-generated song covers every day with no shame. Crazy. Anyway, Kappa Mikey's last Flash game: youtube.com/shorts/xfigA...

I genuinely would like everyone to see today's short. The sound mixing on this game is the funniest thing in the world to me. IMAGINE trying to play Panel de Pon while the characters are screeching at you. youtube.com/shorts/tSipo...

I don't know what I did to ruin my karma, or which god I ticked off, or what ancient tomb I disturbed, or which haggard traveler I turned away at my doorstep was secretly a vengeful sorceress, but today was a legendarily unlucky day.

Kappa Mikey's 2nd Flash game (a parody of Hollywood Squares) is WAY higher quality than the 1st one I posted yesterday, and is probably the Kappa Mikey game with the most time and effort put into it. They even got in the voice actors to do original lines for it. youtube.com/shorts/_rFJx...

It's GAME DAY! ...That's right! A day to talk about Kappa Mikey Flash games! This show had four Flash games made for it, and only this first one was featured on Nick's website... it's also arguably the worst one. Enjoy: youtube.com/shorts/lt6DG...

Since making my deep-dive video, my new favorite thing to do while rewatching Kappa Mikey is to keep an eye out for "Red M" Mikey: an old design from the pilot, which was accidentally left in a few shots, props, and backgrounds of the final show. youtube.com/shorts/eUUQN...

While doing research for my Kappa Mikey deep-dive, the Kappa Mikey Fan Wiki was SOOOO unhelpful it actually misled me several times and forced me to redo a large section of my video because of the false information on there. Could it be the worst fan wiki? youtube.com/shorts/VC4KD...

Back in the day if you wanted to watch a show at your convenience, you needed to buy a DVD, and here in America, Kappa Mikey had ONE DVD with THREE (mid) EPISODES!!! Have some more Kappa Mikey DVD Trivia: youtube.com/shorts/sO3bf...

Kappa Mikey is a strange but interesting show, and Lost in Transportation is a strange but interesting episode for a few oddities. Watch today's Kappa Mikey short: youtube.com/shorts/QmQZI...

I made a video talking about my first indie game. Behind the scenes, why things are the way they are, things I'm proud of, things I'm disappointed by, etc. Watch it here: youtu.be/4HKknF8WXB8

I never expected that I'd need to do so much research into the Japanese recycling system when I started my Kappa Mikey retrospective. Turns out the show that is my trash knows a little something about garbage: youtube.com/shorts/WX1ES...

I'm going to try to release one Kappa Mikey short per day until the 20th anniversary on the 25th. Today's short is about the surprising people who worked on the show. youtube.com/shorts/hpL-C...

Feb 25 will be Kappa Mikey's 20th Anniversary! I'm kind of obsessed with that show... well not "kind of"... I released an 8-hour video about it last year! I'm extremely proud of it, but 8 hours is a commitment, so I'm chopping up bits of it into easy to watch shorts. youtube.com/shorts/LV-2b...

Finally got around to watching The Amazing Digital Circus. Should've called it Dig-It-All Circus... because I dig it... *cough* Anyway, have a thing I noticed: youtube.com/shorts/pQAfx...

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.

"Y'know Lois, this reminds me of the time we starred in the 1991 Christmas cartoon 'Aliens First Christmas.'" "PEEETAAH!"

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
