I learned to like Double Dragon, and see it as a puzzle. The different enemies require different tactics. You want to level up correctly at the beginning, etc. Finished it this evening on the Retro Brawler Bundle on PS4 with heavy use of save states.

It's nice to sit outside for 10 minutes and just listen. I can hear Turkeys, a woodpecker, and a myriad of other birds

You should document your game inside your game: youtu.be/5PJRCz0t7yY?...

I've been seeing more and more retro gaming youtube channels that use fake AI screenshots of games that don't exist for their thumbs, AI voice overs and scripts that feel like they were written by AI. At that stage, what's even the point of following a creator?

Hell is Us is nominated 7 times including GOTY. There's also one in there for Best Performance by @eliastoufexis.bsky.social Could not be more proud of all the work the team put into this game. Bravo everyone!

Decided to start a backloggd. Hopefully it'll help me focus on finishing games instead of having multiple games on the go at once. Right now: Dark Cloud

From being chased by The Red Baron, to his involvement in The Race Against Death and Hunt for the Mad Trapper, Wop May became a legendary Canadian pilot. A celebrated bush pilot, he even developed the concept of para-rescues. This is his story. 🧵 1/12

Go. Buy. This. Game. Worth every penny and more!

For a good while I listened to the soundtrack of CBFD in a loop. @robinbeanland.com did such good work on it. And great job on this remix too! That game has a special place in my heart.

3 years ago, after only a month of moving to my new place there was freezing rain and we lost power for 2 days or so. Our basement flooded because the sump couldn't run. Luckily the basement is "made to flood" and we had no damage. Tonight, we're getting freezing rain again. I have a generator.

I tried Zen Browser yesterday and I'm sold! The way I can organise tabs is exactly what I needed. I feel such relief and so much less stress managing all my tabs now. It feels so good. Well done @zen-browser.app going to set you up on my machines.

A couple of weeks ago someone said to me that classic style dungeon crawlers don't exist anymore. Well, check this out youtu.be/Y6WEyZdmS2o?...

@pixelorama.bsky.social you seem to be unverified on flathub, so some Linux distros (like Mint) hide you. Anything you can do about that?

Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed.

The constant struggle. It's super hard to get people to understand the importance of communication. I keep saying over communicate. If anytime you tell yourself you shouldn't be sharing something, you should be sharing it

You know, @deezerdevs.bsky.social , you could let me play that specific song I'm looking for by just playing a quick ad before it. Instead, I go elsewhere to find it, because I can't play it on the app.

Hell is Us is on sale for the QC games celebration! Plenty of other cool games in there too. Go support them!

"Isometric games don't exist" is a guide with 40 detailed charts about perspective in videogames. It teaches you everything about isometry and what all the other game perspectives & projections are and how they work. You can download it for free on my itch page cyangmou.itch.io/isometric-ga...

I asked a support person at Unity if they were an AI model today because they keep sending me non existent CLI commands. Their answer was:" I understand your frustration, thank you for your feedback" They probably use an AI to write their emails though, even if human, cuz they sure read like AI.

This one hits hard.

Great video!

With David Rosen's death, bad information about Sega as a company is starting to re-emerge across the internet. I will try to give a very condensed version of the Sega corporate shenanigans here as to clear some of the air. 🧵

Looks like the #pixel_dailies server imploded now for good. if you are still on the server, DON'T TOUCH ANY LINKS. GO OUT.

Something I LOVE about this -- 4 games are actually set in Canada, which is rare! -Blackfrost: The Long Dark 2 (Northern CA) -- @hinterland.bsky.social -Button Man (HFX) -- @styraxstudios.bsky.social -Capy Castaway (TO) -- @kittencupstudio.bsky.social -Scott Pilgrim EX (TO) -- @tributegames.com

I started Cross stitching just before the holidays. It is fun and relaxing, and makes you feel productive while watching braindead tv since you're not on your phone. Made these two so far, working on a third. #pixelart -ish

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

I've been trying to learn FreeCAD to make plans for an arcade, and it's the bane of my existence. I could have sketched the plans in a short time, but instead I've been fighting for hours with a software where nothing is intuitive.

Best Of 2025: "Like A Completely New Game" - The Untold Story Behind Prince Of Persia's Impressive SNES Port.

Great box pusher, this! Played quite a bit, stopped in the Ice World. Found the puzzles there fiendishly hard. Maybe my brain was getting tired from playing the game non stop for days. Xmas time is perfect time to try again!

To join the font debate. I can tell when a game made in Unity or Unreal uses the default font. There's plenty of free or cheap fonts out there. I implore you, find something which adds to your game. In #HellIsUs we used Noto sans, and a custom font by @somepx.com

I really need to play more of Hell Is Us. It's exactly the kind of polished, slightly offbeat AA game that needs to become the backbone of the industry as AAA crumbles under its own weight.

Go see Second Wind. Then play Hell Is Us. After that go to @polygon.com and vote for us. Please and Thank you 😁 www.polygon.com/best-horror-...

Just finished Alwa's Legacy. Great game. I don't tend to 100% games, but I did for both Alwa's. Well done Elden Pixels.

So the Angry Video Game Nerd 8-bit comes out tomorrow... I have a couple of STEAM KEYS to give away~ Be a follower and repost! I'll pick a couple of people in a few days!

Rolled credits on Hell is Us this weekend. Really enjoyed it, don't sleep on this one folks. A pretty unique one. Rewarding exploration and puzzle solving, great world building, interesting characters, all fully voiced. Just a great experience overall and very well-made game.
