I didn't play most 'classic' game consoles until long after they were off the market. This strange phenomenon is known as 'growing up lower class'.

I can't be mad at dying repeatedly in Moon Child Friend Edition, even if I wish I had more power than the friendship one (the snakes and birds are not friendly), because I get to return to the title screen to let the theme song soothe my frustrations before diving back in.

everyone's on moon child rn but you can pick any random amiga game and the odds are good you're about to get blasted with the dance anthem of the next 5 centuries

To the surprise of no one, this was a nightmare during Arzette's development as well. Multi-platform video playback is no joke!

GG @timoflegend.bsky.social! My wife's primary hobby is pottery so this game is a delight to share with her.

Had a fun and productive GDC! My only regret was not catching up with more folks in person...until next time!

I finally framed the map of Faramore. To anyone who got Arzette's collector's edition, the map is exactly 18" x 18"!

i said I wanted to draw Arzette again so I did. I thought she might cool good in a swimsuit too so two pics instead of one yay. #art #fanart #arzette

Happy to finally announce this! It’s been a privilege to work with such a beloved brand. Especially cool to bring back one of the best arcade beat-’em-ups ever (with rollback netcode courtesy of our amazing partners at Komi Games). Excited for folks to be able to play this…soon!

Just wrapped up my first completely blind playthrough of @arzettegame.bsky.social. Incredibly charming, genuinely funny, and, more importantly than being an homage, it is unsurprisingly excellent. I loved every minute. Big congrats to @seth.games and the dev team. And a big hello from OBKY, Dopply!

The first game had one of the funniest original tracks I've ever heard from one of these simulator type games (and goes kinda hard ngl) youtu.be/OIs7Uq3Jehc

I was trying to doodle before bed and started doing some rough Arzette sketches cuz I replayed that game recently. I should draw her more #art #fanart #arzette

I'll be at GDC March 10-12th! Please reach out if you wanna find some time to talk all things Carbon Engine/retro releases or simply catch up. Looking forward to it!

JAWS: Retro Edition from the Carbon Team is out and you get to check out the unreasonably good JAWS: Enhanced Edition as part of it! Jeremy and Patrick truly killed it. It's shockingly good!

I should probably go to MAGFest at some point, looked really fun this year

A lot of you are picking up Arzette for the holidays, which means a lot more than I can properly articulate. I don’t take it for granted. If you’re playing it for the first time (or replaying it) I’d love to hear your thoughts. Happy holidays, everyone.

been playing Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore for the past few days, it's a pretty fun game reminiscent of the Zelda CD-i series #pixelart #pixel_art #art #artist #fanart #indiegame #arzettethejeweloffaramore #arzette #indieplatformer #lospec

Professional update: I have assumed the role of development director at LRG, with a focus on the Carbon Engine. My job is to build upon the stellar groundwork laid by @supernesjoe.bsky.social and @modernvintagegamer.com to deliver quality releases that classic games deserve.

The sad truth of the 90s was that no matter much they begged or pleaded nobody in popular entertainment could be stopped

If you're in the area, I'll be around the LRG retail store tomorrow from 12:30 to 3 to hang out and sign copies of Arzette. There's a lot of other cool stuff going on too, so come say hi!

Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore ($7.99) - a game with deep inspiration by and love of Zelda- which Zeldas, you ask? oh! well, not the NES original. not the N64 ones either. this is a tribute to CD-I Zelda. yes, really. and it's a goofy, goodass time. store.steampowered.com/app/1924780/...

Hmph! Here to challenge... ME?? #Klive #Arzette #ArzetteTheJewelOfFaramore

cool fucking game

Joe did great work on those screens. They look factory fitted. I also had to edit some graphics for one of the games and ended up using Deluxe Paint loaded from floppy disk on an Amiga 500 with a 30 year old mouse. It was quicker and easier than using any of more modern tools, and more fun too.

My 3 year old now loves playing Bubsy so all the blood, sweat and tears were worth it just to hear the wise words he shouts whilst playing it.

Bubsy in: The Purrfect Collection is finally out. A lotta blood, sweat, & tears from myself & the Carbon team (mostly tears). Despite the "quality" of the games, it was important to me that the collection was handled with love, cuz nobody else was gonna do it. Have fun, Bubheads.

Bonus: Some more highlights from that interview. Denis is a mood hyruleinterviews.notion.site/Chernov-on-t...

Now that Hollowknight Silksong is out, can we all collectively agree to stop the "never coming out" nonsense with games?

HE-MAN and the Masters of the Universe: Dragon Pearl of Destruction is the game MOTU always deserved but never got until now. I’m the creative director & lead producer and working with my friends at @bitmapbureau.com & it’s the biggest project I’ve ever led. youtu.be/DhSg581CygU?...

Yes, I have been working on the Bubsy collection. Yes, the team added analog controls and a fully controllable camera to Bubsy 3D (as an option). What could possibly go wrong?

GEX Trilogy is finally out! I’m very proud of my work on it. The Carbon Team endeavored to create the best compilation of these games we could. Emphasis on we: I’m just one part of an amazing team. I’m so lucky to work with them every day. Please enjoy, and remember…oh yeah, it’s tail time.

Very proud of the work I did on Gex Trilogy. If you want to hear me ramble on about it, this is the avenue for that. If you're ready for tail time, you can pick it up on your platform of choice June 16th.

Next week I'll be heading to @omgcon.com with Arzette! I'll be demoing the game as well selling some copies. If you happen to be in the area, come say hi!

Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore It's crazy how well they're were able to adapt both the look and vibes of the CDI Zelda games without it feeling forced. And on top of being a nice love letter to those games and that era of YTP humour, it's just a really fun game on it's own! A surprisingly fun time!

Version 1.0 of MeenTC - a remake of I.M. Meen in GZDoom - is out! Thanks to Melodic Spaceship on Doomworld, MeenTC now has the scroll-editing mode that made I.M. Meen an edutainment game! It's now feature-complete and plays (nearly) identically to the original game! #Doom #IMMeen

Just finished Arzette And The Jewel Of Faramore. Never thought I'd see a spiritual successor to cdi zelda let alone an actual good one. It's short and sweet with some awesome music and artwork. Had a ton of fun with this one and highly recommend it if you're a fan of old school action platformers
