NEON HAWK, work in progress for Vectrex, by Finnish maestro Mikko Huovinen (The Reap, Boarder Zone, Max Payne 2, Alan Wake, Quantum Break)

In Yandex’ museum of computer history with my PONG Charged game for Elektronika BK 0010 (fully 16-bit Soviet home computer designed in 1983).

I haven't used paints and brushes in a long time. First attempt after a 20-year break. And first time with acrylics.

My 2024, according to Instagram

Believe it or not, it’s fully 16-bit, but only 3-colour (plus black) home computer designed in USSR in 1983, running my 4 kb program: www.pouet.net/prod.php?whi... #Demoscene #PixelArt

ZX Spectrum Next is finally arrived

Why do half of today’s games look like they were made in Macromedia Flash in early 2000s? #gamedev

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #1,744,176!

"Sad Child Song" from "MODest disk" released by SandS in 2003. All sounds were recorded live by me and Tangerine. www.pouet.net/prod.php?whi... P.S. my first video here, I'm trying to figure out the BlueSky's limitations. 50 Mb max size, 60 seconds max duration, upload is working on desktop only.

Modern games: run on the latest Apple M3 processor with 24 gigabytes of memory and a fast solid-state drive, look like OutRun from the 80s, weigh 5.5 gigabytes, freeze during races (probably due to map loading), skip frames, and don't even have the option to reduce resolution. How?

In light of the Oasis' reunion, I decided to listen to the best of. This time the youtube adverts overflowed the cup of patience and I finally bought a premium subscription. Congratulate me :) Music is power.

Atlassian Jira is phenomenal. You see the modal window with 2 action buttons: Cancel and Close. The action you actually perform is called Done, while the window’s header say Close. That’s why so many ugly interfaces around: designers and developers use Jira on daily basis. Their brains are infected.

Low-poly stones

In Russian language we use “he” as a neutral pronoun (like “it”). English speaking people now say “he or she” to avoid discrimination. But why not “she or he”? Isn’t it discrimination already?

Did you know? I curate a gallery of procedural artworks by various demosceners — each piece was rendered by an executable program no larger than 4096 bytes: executable.graphics

Webflow as a development tool for NES/Famicom 8-[ ]

Cybermorphism collection: abstract geometry, imaginary digital worlds, illogical geometric transformations. Animated. Hand-coded. 1/1 #NFT price: 3-5 TON getgems.io/manwe

The year 2024 and #NFT galleries still can not play looped videos seamlessly. They add gap, freeze the last frame, pause music, etc. Why? We solved this problem many years ago: thesands.ru/forth-demoto...

Full featured multitasking operating system with software including 2 web browsers, email client, 3 file managers, games, demos, text editor, spreadsheets, drivers – 1.44 Mb. GMail client – 480 Mb. I'll never understand people who justify the second one.

The Amiga demoscene, as celebrated for almost two years in my 'DEMOSCENE LEGENDS' series only in ZZAP! AMIGA magazine, from Fusion Retro Books . Stunning series logo by Gordian Neumann aka Critikill . LINK - fusionretrobooks.com/collections/...

a lot of video games soundtracks for your pleasure

After 20 years of experience, I released my first article related to UX/UI design. 5000 views, 65% read ratio, some flame in comments :) medium.com/p/08ee184f7312

387 Mb for VPN client that looks like a bunch of text fields. Crazy.

My 2003, according to Instagram. Thank you all!

Programmers in the absence of a UX designer

In 2022 people were gloating Bitcoin is finally crashed and would never recover again. They were compensating for their regret at missing out on the opportunity. In 2023 they were saying It's too late to invest, because the price is too high again. Me: invested half year ago and get +30% today.

Why music players made in China can not sort files in alphabet order?

Which segment is not a diameter? – they ask. Actually, all segments (except may be AM), because point O is shifted so much from the circle’s center.

The early age of mobile gaming: the handheld game console from 1878. As far as I know, it was officially banned in UK parliament, because members of parliament were playing right in parliamentary sessions.

I’ve always loved Asteroids game, and this clone is amazing youtu.be/QTMIWD4QooE?...

Elon Musk: Al is one of the biggest threats to humanity. Also Elon Musk: is using Al to decide who isn't a human and kill his Twitter account automatically, giving no chance to appeal. Result: Elon Musk's Al delete humans from the social network. Congratulation, Elon!

Greetings from Colombo!

Меня уже второй раз банит Twitter по причине «нарушения» правил. Ссылку на твит, который по их мнению что-то нарушает, не предъявляют. Теряюсь в догадках, поэтому заскриншотил свои самые радикальные твиты. Как думаете, какой из них попал в немилость? Расскажите плиз твиттерским, что теперь я здесь.

Good evening everyone

My favourite #Nintendo advertising. And also my favourite handheld console.
