The Mist in Silksong has me sounding like the parts of a James Somerton video that aren’t plagiarised because I’m getting so mad at projections of white women

Freshly Picked Tingle’s Rosy Rupeeland 🤭

I finished Pac-Man World 2 Re-pac and it’s made me want to talk about the bosses The new fights are all waiting through attack patterns then getting a second to hurt them. I get why they changed them and they’re ok. However, I think the old bosses were unintentionally genius? Lemme explain

Someone on the train just complimented my outfit while I was shoveling gummy worms into my mouth like an animal and I just had to stare at her for 5 seconds while I swallowed the gummy worms and then I said thank u Dies of cringe

A game criticism I think is overused is “it doesn’t respect the player’s time”. Cause idk, modern consoles have sleep modes? Just pause it Maybe it’s cause i like chipping away at big RPGs over the course of half a year. I like experiences to last if im enjoying it 🤷‍♀️

Here's the trailer to my coming game: Twinkle's Galactic Tour! Just an alien gal trying to make it as a singstar 👽⭐ A musical platformer with feels and rocket boots, inspired in 90s anime! #lowpoly #indiegames #gamedev

Steel Ball Run trailer on bisexual visibility day hell yea

Oh hell yeah it’s TK Maxx Halloween Decoration season

If trans ppl are so dumb then why is ‘Smart’ just ‘Trans’ spelled backwards

It’s fun when being good at the easy part affects the hard part. Like, getting there with a little more health each time or conserving more items or powerups It’s miserable when, like, the “hard part” is a pit that kills you outright. Or a minigame with new controls

“When you think about it, Metroidvania is a stupid term. I think a more fitting name would be-“ You are not the first to try this. People more powerful than you have lost this fight. They’re Metroidvanias babes

Well Seymour I transitioned.... Despite your objections.

It’s been

I’m really glad that virtual boy thing happened, the world is dire and bleak right now and it’s nice to have something totally inconsequential but incredibly stupid to dunk on 😙

Am I wrong to think it’s weird when ppl on dating apps tell me they think they might be trans/NB but they’d never transition because the world is too hostile It’s like, “I wish I were like you but your life sucks and everyone hates you” like ok thanks I didn’t ask

by popular demand: they're gay!

Silksong might have the best exploration in any Metroidvania I’ve played. Every time I’ve gotten stuck on a difficult encounter, there’s been some alternate way to go, leading to an entirely new area. I love it

Omg me irl

I hate to admit it but this is peak joystick design 🍒 #jjba #stardustcrusaders

A song I have not thought about in at least a decade

"Manosphere"... you mean this thing?

Hey everyone! I'm open for commisions and job offers! My name is Za, I'm also known as 'rata'. I'm a pixel artist focused on background and UI and I'm very good at creating environments and assets for videogames ^^ My portfolio's at www.artstation.com/ratazart Contact me via DM

Hmm nah I’m not gonna partake in game difficulty discourse today Silksong good and I love it

Making myself feel better about sucking at Silksong by finishing a different game about exploring a ruined world where the remaining wildlife is being controlled by an eldritch horror (That’s not a silksong spoiler Ive not gotten far enough to spoil anything lmao)

Go Go Beckham! Adventure on Soccer Island

I woke up extra early to suck ass at silksong

Uncharted - “if I kill you I’m just like you” - Boring Avatar - “it’s messed up to expect this child to kill a man” - good. Compelling Yakuza Kiwami and Transformers One - “two brothers become sworn enemies after one of them kills an evil man and realises he’s capable of it” - brilliant. Amazing.

This #TransDayofVisibility we’ve collated a definitive list of 90+ trans games throughout history. Almost 100 games by trans developers and/or with trans representation. Featuring games from: @deconstructeam.bsky.social @maddymakesgames.com and many others 🏳️‍⚧️ checkpointgaming.net/features/202...

I can’t remember the last time I used a car to get somewhere and that rules. Trains are so cool

Now that I’ve had more time to dwell on it, I really wasn’t crazy about Clair Obscur. I was already a bit fed up of button prompts in turn-based RPGs so the novelty was lost on me

Just saw the Celeste orchestra and it was so pretty 🥹 Shoutout to the guy sat next to me who seemed genuinely angry at the gameplay footage. Dude was all like “fackin ‘elllll” every time the player died

Undertale

I’m really glad I stopped looking at online discourse for games until after I’ve finished playing them It’s still a downer when I seek out fan art and memes to feed my hyperfixation and I found naught but months-long debates

It's my birthday so I would appreciate some shares 🥰 I'm Llewellyn and I make a queer Thriller/Romance comic "Across Your Shattered Sky" about obsession, possession & falling in love. I'll share some of my favorite panels in the comments! Where to read my comic + my shops~ linktr.ee/LlewellynAYSS

I wanna go several years back in time and tell myself that one day there will be a full 3D platformer with rolling physics and momentum that plays like those sonic fan demos I love. Except it will star Bubsy

we love eyes! 👀 we're almost done making Videonauts - a cutespooky Ib-like exploration game about finding mysterious casette tapes in a strange mansion. store.steampowered.com/app/3678420/...

Hmm, in retrospect I don't think "Rat Bastard" is a fitting name for the first enemy. I think this is a nicer name

I took my first real week off work and made the most progress on my game since January, and I also got on top of my trans admin stuff 😌 I honestly didn’t realise how tired I was, but it was so nice to be myself for a week
