"Welcome to the Fantasy Zone!" Happy 40th birthday, Space Harrier! Released into Japanese arcades on 2nd October 1985, and blowing arcade fans away with even more advanced sprite scaling than Sega's first forays into it and an absolute riot of colour. "ARRRRGH!"

👀 I remember the giant single tome of a screenplay passing through our office when they were shopping it to game publishers. Excited to see it on screen as that singular epic. www.darkhorizons.com/the-full-kil...

Did you know your MacBook has a sensor that knows the exact angle of the screen hinge? It’s not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

In just a few days, you can see SPINAL TAP II: THE END CONTINUES on various large screens around the world. I’d recommend it, if only for the greatness. And the loudness. Plus Junior Mints.

After a bit of a break, I've begun work in earnest on my next project! This one is a bit different, and I'm hoping to leverage the amazing work that @bisqwit.bsky.social has done on Castlevania II amazing improvements. I'll be porting their romhack version instead of the original game.

Yeah…

One more ride. I still have friends everywhere.

Sega forever changed my life and the Genesis remains my favorite console of all time. It's been 36 years and I'm STILL buying new games for it! HB to the mighty Sega Genesis!

Gunship (in red) really taking the low altitude part of LAAT seriously.

Oops! All Yularens.

I’m unreasonably entertained by this set.

I am in ridiculous debt to a friend for extracting this from SDCC. Stoked.

This is the first SW Haslab that I've reacted to with indifference. I'll likely back it because I'm a fool, but there's no space for this, and not much nostalgia for the film. I can feel my tastes sliding out of their needed demo. I'm the olds now.

From Streets of Rage to Earthion 34 years ago I composed the soundtrack for a game that became part of Mega Drive history. Now, I’m back with a brand-new shooter packed with even more energy, speed, and power. Earthion lands on July 31. The countdown has begun. youtu.be/q-PEQZNurFs?...

Pristine Technicolor print of 48 y/o film pulled from archive and screened for lucky few: "This just looks like people wearing costumes, ugh, how terrible," yaps vlogger into his phone in portrait mode, getting 9 million views, with HR scraping for clicks. Cinema lives.

It was a good call to cancel preorders this week, but might I suggest melting down any already manufactured for next week, Hasbro?

Evergreen. More Nemik, please 🤗
