I like video games that make me feel things.

How was Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 not nominated? This music is magnifique. 🙌 youtu.be/oEtmFgonY3E?...

My friends at school had Commodore 64 computers and John Laws appeared on the television to tell me I should have one too. He was right. youtu.be/KWzacy3DC6Q?...

Petition to redesign the UTS logo on the tower to have the Cool S symbol as in this game...

I'll bring some Irn-Bru just in case @serrels.bsky.social turns up to this.

Capcom I would pay for a modded Street Burger version of Street Fighter 2 that looks like this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8hU...

I was curious to see how the 3rd Doctor would react if the Brigadier had Kate's dialogue...

So, today I'm announcing a new book project... and doing a call for papers: crpgbook.wordpress.com/2025/10/31/t... It's an anthology of video game history outside the usual US perspective - an accessible & exciting panorama of different realities - and I'll pay 300 USD per article. Please share :)

There were countries in the 80s that don't exist anymore. For example, the U.S.S.R., West Germany, and Epyx.

Sexy Python Programming Language

It's the final issue of PC PowerPlay. It's sad to see so much print media disappear.

Sex, Peace, Drugs, Love, Rock 'N' Roll, and... French? 🥖

Not only does Zangief's USSR no longer exist, but there's a McDonalds now on this little street corner in China. I guess capitalism won.

If you've ever wondered what a rave in a Borg cube would look like, you should've been at @waypoint-events.com and @serenade.games's Constellations last night.

At Constellations...

The Usborne programming books were so good when I was a kid. 🤖👾

Tomorrow morning I am cycling 100km from Brisbane to the Gold Coast for cancer research 🚴‍♀️❤️ If you’d like to sponsor me (even small donations are super appreciated): fundraise.mater.org.au/s/120023/179...

Yeah nah, the auto dubbing sounds horrible.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

I'm reading the Witcher books for the first time and realising how I know so little of Slavic mythology compared to the mythologies of Western Europe. It's interesting.

If you do only one nice thing today, please let it be helping Rebecca meet her cancer treatment fund goal

Just listened to @philsalv.bsky.social's interview with @saharkin.bsky.social and remembered being at the supermarket and hearing a little boy tell his mum he wanted to buy a Total Girl magazine because it had Nintendo characters on the cover. His mum said "No!" because, "that's for girls". Boo! :(

I don't understand when people accuse other people of posting things online for "seeking attention", as if that's a bad thing? We're social animals. It's natural and healthy for us to want to be seen.

Oh, Jared Kushner and the Saudis own the Ultima series now. That's depressing :(

I see this and submit for consideration: Street Fighter stage set in Melbourne's Stalactites Greek Restaurant. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gG3p...

There should be a Street Fighter stage set in Newtown, Sydney, Australia, with the the connection being that Sagat's Aussie cousin owns a Thai restaurant on King Street. That would be iconic.

I'm following a game programming tutorial that's a bit like this drawing tutorial. I was going so good initially, and then...

I found the location on Google Maps of the Sydney, Australia stage in International Karate. It's 1 Olympic Dr Milsons Point, just at the northern end of the Harbour Bridge.

Reminiscing on Threads with other millennials about the early days of the internet pre 2001 made me realise why older people on Facebook community groups get nostalgic for happy times they remember from last century.

Thank you for the idea Kickstarter, but I'll think I'll try making some other games first. If you want to play my buggy Global Game Jam game however where you're a robot who has to deliver mail, then you can play it here: markduval.itch.io/going-postbot

Oh, I spawned too many enemies in #pico8 lol

My 80-year-old aunt told me she "got tired of streaming" and is borrowing DVDs from her library again. So I checked it out and they have an amazing selection. Blu-rays too, from Criterion, Kino Lorber and other boutique labels. #PhysicalMedia #FilmSky

Look you just have to make the cool weird shit that excites you. You must. In this world besieged by bland, scrubbed boring, computer slop, you must. Make the thing you’re embarrassed to make, the thing that feels “too much” because otherwise we get drowned in a sea of cowardly work made by a button

In the #pico8 tutorial I'm following, the bullets I fire currently don't move, but just stay on the screen, so you can draw things. Bug or feature?

My first 5 Steam purchases...

I grew up on these streets

Here we go, something I've been drafting for a long, long time: how the US-centric approach to video games and their history / culture basically gaslights us who come from other realities: felipepepe.medium.com/the-gentrifi... AKA, why LAN Houses, PokéTibia & Bomba Patch rule.

Plenty of that today.

Deeply infurating call with a paypal supervisor Him: 18+ content doesn't align with paypal Me: So you're ok with blocking perfectly legal content? Him: Yes. Me: Wow. You're ok with bending to pressure from groups outside the US and being a moral arbiter what can be bought and sold? Him: Yep.

it's me

As someone who’s been using the internet since 1999. It is crazy to see how much more restricted it has become The old internet felt more futuristic than what we have now

t's amazing how this is from more than 20 years ago but very well could have been from today.

I backed this transparent purple (sorry, "magenta") Spectrum Next. It's too beautiful to miss. 💜
