please help me hit 10 reviews on steam! that's apparently the magic number where god himself smiles upon me and i would like to feel something other than the cold embrace of the void, if only for a moment.

Even in a world where LLM never existed this is solid mentoring

To drive away the anxiety for a few minutes, new Zooliminology video just dropped! I want a game about this stuff. Just exploring the Spooky Dimension and documenting/photographing the funny lil' guys there.

YouTube as a platform has been so diabolically bad this past year and continues to be awful to create on lol. Keeps hiding my stuff from my audience and I’m just so tired 😐 anyway if you wanna support a girlie analysing games and making high effort vids please leave a comment on the viddy 🙏

love when this happens

oh wow microsoft's smart app control doesn't let you launch EMUUROM on steam, you just get a cryptic steam error message another reason to hate windows 11 yay

i'm once again running out of TIC-80 code space in EMUUROM so I've resorted to shortening text entries the player can read. They've become SO MUCH better as a result

The game industry’s obsession with graphics is so funny because every other year there will be some breakout hit called “Stick Figure Mansion” or some shit that outsells 90% of the market and runs on a toaster

I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!

they say video game price is a solved problem: just ask everyone how much your game should cost. so, help me solve this for EMUUROM! every answer counts!

looking at the GDC talks for this year and this kinda sums it up, huh

we went to see Egg

uh oh

"Be messy and have fun" aka be more like Symphony of The Night. Does it need RPG levels and loot? Does it need the reverse castle? Does it need the confession room? Does it need the hidden moves? Does it need the gargoyle? No, but also yes. Don't just over-design your game, over-over-design it.

kayin.itch.io/md-design-book The DESIGN BOOK is out and I swear to god itch store page links look worse on bluesky than anywhere else! It's SFW so if you didn't wanna play MD because the content wasn't your thing, you can ignore the warning at the start and give it a read!

somehow i'm still making new music for emuurom

i've made a new comic called "TOY STORY II: a sequel to Toy Story".

Sonic modding scene: "We modded Sonic Mania into an entirely new game" Mario 64 modding scene: "We backported the newest 3D Mario's gameplay & levels into the first 3D Mario" The Super Metroid hacking scene in 2026:

At 9:18, 3rd period of the Finland-Switzerland women's ice hockey QF game, the ice crew came to clean the ice during a pause What follows is the funniest use of the slo-mo alternate angle tech I've seen them use during these Olympics of one of the crew members falling

Whenever I use something like Everything or like FilePilot I just look at Microsoft like... aren't you embarrassed??? Shouldn't you be embarrassed about this???

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties. The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized. Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers Doggy valitsee oikotien!

I made a tool that makes retro anime sound effects. Meet AnimeVox! I made it for a game, but it's free to use. I'm using the forgotten (but popular in 80s japan) Schroeder reverb algo, and some wobble. If you find it useful consider supporting me on itch :) castpixel.itch.io/animevox

wow three calvindad variations of the PEAK five bucks story already

@officialelectric.bsky.social 's itch page gave me a jolt of serotonin.

9000!!

it's that time of the year again borbware.itch.io/emuurom/devl...

Honestly, why? Why take away a title that's common in music and other arts. You can have a solo expo in fine arts, you can make a solo record, or perform as a solo musician. There are stage technicians, session musicians or whatnot involved too. But in gaming, you're basically branded a cheat?

emuurom breaks all records everywhere, even the bad ones

A truly evil little metroidania where your only inputs are Attack, Move and Turn. If you liked Mooncat in UFO 50, this might be your jam.
