American politics are wild to me. At this point, I think I have more respect for MAGA pieces of shit than for those so-called centrist Democrats. And just to be clear, I feel no respect at all for MAGAs.

FINALLY managed to mod my old #gameboycolor with a backlit screen!

What is a game genre you love, but are terrible at? It's tactical RPG for me, Final Fantasy Tactics is kicking my ass.

Adding my game to an aid bundle has been one of my best #gamedev experiences, and I'm looking forward to doing it again. Lots of people downloaded and hopefully enjoyed my game, and some of them even paid for it individually afterwards. And more importantly, you help raise funds for a good cause.

[PLEASE RT] If you worked on an aid bundle on itch.io could you please reply? @spritewrench.com and I are hopefully going to start working on one for Jamaica after Hurricane Melissa! (Also if you're interested in adding your game, reply as well!)

A sneaky way fascists use to gain sympathisers is infiltrating people's hobbies, #retrogaming especially. Anyway, these are just some random thoughts based on recent online interactions, and I'll try to put them in order here. 👇

One of the best games ever made, period.

I just want to put this out into the universe. If you are a homebrew developer of a GB, GBC, GBA, NES, SMS, MD/Genesis, N64, or PS1 game with a free version or a free demo of you game, I’d love to ship it with SuperStation as a physical or digital demo disk.

Pitching your game to print media? Here’s a thread full of tips! Always send screenshots in PNG format. JPEG compression blurs sharp edges and creates ugly artefacts that look even worse once printed at 300 DPI. Where possible, submit your screenshots at 4K resolution. Or native res for pixel art.

Adventurer, sit by the fire and relax in your cozy cabin. #screenshotsaturday #indiegamedev #gbstudio #gbdev

So after several years of investigation, it seems there really is no source of funding for Game Boy homebrew, except for the recently established you-know-who. I don't really see much room for competitors. So my advice would be to not look for funding from a third party, do it yourself.

I refuse to acknowledge #genAI as "progress". When the only purpose of a certain technological innovation is to make a handful of billionaires even richer, while at the same time turning the world into a more hostile place for the rest of us, that is NOT progress. #AIslop #fuckAI

It’s actually really easy to not buy games from a company helping do a genocide. The lowest of bars even!

a reminder that ModRetro is run by Palmer Luckey, a huge Trump backer, a self described "radical Zionist," and, quite literally, an arms dealer via his other company, Anduril

Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein is a VERY GOOD MOVIE. 🤩

Very happy with how the starting/tutorial area of my WIP, in very early stages, still untitled #zeldalike is coming up together. 🤩 #gbstudio #gameboy #gameboycolor #retrogamedev #screenshotsaturday

A thing about me is that I love Lovecraft stories but I’d also kick that man’s ass in a parking lot.

Great news for the #retrogamedev community!

NOTHING is lost by properly crediting individuals for the exact contributions they made. You list the entire executive suite who never touched a key and yet people who ground on the game for years are regulated to a "and they were also here." It's not hard. www.gamedeveloper.com/business/rid...

I've received a certain email from @homebrew-factory.com! 🙌🙌 #gameboy #gameboycolor #indiegame

I hope I die like this someday. 😱

So today we're all excited about the fascist arm dealer's N64 clone, huh?

I'm still thinking about this show two years later.

The shorter games with worse graphics made by less people discourse is starting again and the nuance lost in this conversation is: we absolutely CAN make big, hyper-realistic games, sustainably. The problem -- and the money drain -- is executive pay, leadership overreach, mismanagement, and whims.

🥲

Women don't like the vehicle.

Just thinking about how I often find games with "bad" graphics, few or no cutscenes and narrative gaps more immersive than ultra realistic ones that use tons of cutscenes to explain every single storyline detail. #gamedev #videogames

Not much to show this week, but I'm pretty happy with this effect! #screenshotsaturday #zeldalike #gameboy #gbstudio #indiegame

It’s Heart Machine today. It’s someone else tomorrow. This industry needs a better way. Ours isn’t the only one. It won’t be the best. But it’s something different. If you believe #gamedev and #indiegames deserve better, like, repost, follow. Fairplaycollective.org Fund devs, not execs.

Yeah, the Modretro Chromatic may be a cool gadget, but in case you don't know, Modretro's owner is a MAGA Zionist piece of shit. There are plenty of options today (from Analogue Pocket to amazingly modded Game Boys) if you don't want to fund fascism and genocide. #gameboy #retrogaming #fuckmodretro

I've been prototyping mechanics, and this last week I managed to start creating an art style and a little actual content for what I hope will be my next #indiegame someday. This is super early stuff. #screenshotsaturday #zeldalike #gameboycolor #gameboy
