Inbelievable! Unconceivable! But it didn't matter. AntiBubzia on the other world was doing the precisely exact same thing backwards to cancel out Bubzia's completed run every freaking time.

Starting off new year great! My Tamagotchi died tonight because I left her with the in-game sitter this morning and forgot to pick her up before 6 PM. Three hours later and I guess that was enough to make her kill herself.

I was refreshing my memory on the various Rockman X Carddass series because I remembered them being utterly bonkers nonsense (complimentary) and I had somehow forgotten there was a villain duo named "Confuse A Stoner".

"Simply getting to exist in a digital space is enough." @kiteline.bsky.social educated us about the legacy of SOUP and the ambitious ensemble fan tribute SOUP ROOMS. funland.itch.io/funland-zine...

commissions! our stuff is still in storage since Zoe has been having migraines continuously for 2 months now, and they keep raising the price of the unit- other unexpected expenses came up and it's been desperate, just keeping fed has been a struggle. reach me at: [email protected]

They've posted this only on the dead bird site, but I really love this SOUP room created by @submarichamomi.bsky.social! Beautiful detailed art and color palette, and nice use of the camera angle to make an evocative screenshot!

been messing around making rooms with this today

less uwu indie publishers, more collectives. Grab a bunch of friends making games similar to yours, make a single social account for promotion, and share the burden of Posting. Bundle them together. Promote each other and do less work at the same time

Here's the video for the Signal Room in Soup Rooms. I'll make more videos for the other rooms later. But I talk about what I used for art/music stuff. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiAS...

btw Signal is actually made with 3D first, but I'll talk about that more in the Soup Rooms video (bonus jellyfish)

Thanks for tuning into Vin's stream of Soup Rooms the other day. I'll be working on videos talking about what art/music stuff I did for rooms I worked on/helped with. Also added a collection at the bottom of my itchio page for projects I contributed to as well agentredjackal.itch.io

recently I had to make a short music loop for SOUP ROOMS. so I tried out furnace tracker for the first time! the resulting music sounds like clown vomit 🤠👍 \ 최근에 SOUP ROOMS 콜라보를 위해서 짧은 음악을 만들었어야 했어요. 그래서 처음으로 furnace tracker를 맨 땅에 헤딩하며 간만에 음악 작업을 해봤네요. 역시, 제 작곡 실력 진짜 구려요 🤠👍

I haven't made a single penny off of indie game development, but I'll occasionally stumble across some really kind words that still make it feel like it was all worth it.

A selection of SOUP ROOMS music made by @jarrencrist.bsky.social is now available on Bandcamp! Jarren really knocked it out of the park and I'm eternally grateful for their support and kindness. SOUP ROOMS wouldn't have been possible without them. Enjoy! jarrencrist.bandcamp.com/album/soup-r...

Thanks for the warm reception. It's been a lot of fun seeing everyone's reactions these past few days. Looking forward to seeing all the cool ROOMS people make!

Acrylic Marker sketch commissions* on canvas -$40 with free shipping* -4" x 4" -10 slots -USA only (I'm sorry!) -I can do backgrounds, I'm just in a hurry -I can start these after the 9th and try to get them out in the mail by the 15th, but they could be late for Christmas *(Explained below)

Today I learned about SOUP & SOUP-likes, how cool they are, and how easy it's to make your own. Today was a very good day.

I'm so honoured to have been a part of this alongside many devs and creatives I look up to!! GO CHECK OUT THE ROOM I MADE FOR IT AS WELL AS ALL THE OTHERS THAT ARE WAY COOLER

what an incredibly cool project… just all of it. this is inspiring.

November 30th / December 1st

lots of cool rooms here pls check em out (im in dis btw)

who wants to make some soup with me

Wanted to mention, I answered questions for FUNLAND ZINE about my history with Soup & Soup Mods Ive done, but they didnt make it in for some reason(I got a brief mention though). But I'll post those here. I would not have gotten involved in Soup mods were it not for @vinny.vinesauce.com though

I would encourage artists who are curious about modding assets in games to maybe dip your toes in it by checking this out. Especially if you want to make a little virtual museum for your art or do whatever with it.

i made a little room for this :3

I made a room for this in collaboration with @thenomi.bsky.social. A lot of creative rooms to explore created by a wide variety of artists. Thank you to @kiteline.bsky.social for organizing and putting this all together. Can't wait to explore this.

Me and my bud @loop2d.bsky.social made a few rooms for this (they did most of the work lol). Super glad we could contribute something to this project alongside so many other talented people!!!

honored to be a part of this! Such a cool idea, happy it's out!

i was able to contribute a couple rooms to this massive project and am super excited to finally share this! i love games that give a contemplative space to wander around in and SOUP really nails that vibe. a bunch of other artists i admire took part as well, please check it out

I took part in a super cool collaboration art-game where you explore different rooms. I made a very small amount of rooms, but there are also other, really impressive ones by other cool people! :D Definitely check it out! ❤️

I made a few rooms for this extremely cool project, go check it out!

Oh dang, Soup Rooms is out! 100 single-room indie micro-artgames in one interconnected hub.

Both @cargodin.bsky.social and I made some rooms for this! Met a lot of really creative and awesome people who made some really fantastic rooms within the strict bounds of the format. Check it out! (⁠/⁠･⁠ω⁠･⁠(⁠-⁠ω⁠-⁠) (you'll probably find mine and go "oh Aria did this. Where's the exit...")

Go take a gander at all those rooms over there

I've worked on this room called 《VELDTFUNERAL♡》 ! Made both musics and spriteworks for this one. It was a super fun project 🤠

This is a rad one! I have a room! Check it

Check out SOUP ROOMS, it's awesome! I have a couple of rooms in it :)

Really happy to have contributed to this along with many wonderful people. Please check it out, there's a lot to discover!

I made some music & sounds for this project (and some of its rooms therein) - It's a really cool collection of art/environments by a bunch of talented ppl and a really chill game to walk around in,I highly recommend checking it out, I'm glad to have been a part of it.

We spoke with Kite Line about SOUP ROOMS back in FUNLAND ZINE NO. 2! Read more about the ambitious fan collaboration and fascinating original here: funland.itch.io/funland-zine...

SOUP ROOMS is a collaborative minimalist art-game featuring over 100 ROOMS created by cool and talented indie devs from around the world. Admission is free of charge, and you can even make your own ROOMS and SOUP-like games to share with others! We hope you enjoy your stay. LINKS BELOW! ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓

This took off a bit more than I thought it would, but I'm glad I'm not the only hardware accuracy preservation freak out there. There are dozens of us! Dozens!

And I don't want N64 games to have the PS1's issues because then they wouldn't feel like N64 games. That's the core part of it: Preserving the identity and history of these old games. It really is that deep if you care about respecting the platforms and technical limitations they were designed with.

it is genuinely astonishing to me how often this happens to specifically ps1 games. the console paradoxically considered to have one of the strongest game libraries of all times but also the one most likely to make people pitch a fit if you just bring one back without changes

>purchase ps1 game >look inside >ps1 game every time. it never fails.

God I hate remaster/remake culture. Losing my mind at how many reviews/comments I've seen that complain about the vertex jitter in the new version of R-Type Delta. "Wobbly polygons" are part of the charm, aesthetic, and visual identity of PS1 games. Old games are *supposed to look old*.

RIP Udo Kier. I mostly knew him from his role in Riget (which I'm fairly certain traumatized me as a wee larva), but I also knew him from the very early era of the Internet where his personal website would greet you with this delightful video:

Sometime between the releases of Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, a company called Songbird Ocarinas began advertising in every single issue of Nintendo Power up until the magazine ended in 2012. Curious if they were still around, I decided to try their website and...

Evolution is such a great little dungeon crawler series and I really hope Sting eventually rereleases them in some sort of definitive collection. They feel underrated even for Sting RPGs, though I can't say I blame people for disliking how much of a tedious grind they can be. I love 'em though.

Why didn't anyone tell me GunBuster was so much fun? Watched it over the weekend and it felt like I was twelve years old again watching Evangelion what with all the over-the-top melodrama, screaming, and funky space monsters (yes I know it's the same director). youtu.be/l0vCY3I5yxo
