Would you guess that I cut a bunch of interesting stuff from my big Dagger video? Well, I did. youtu.be/jISDQGN_8wg

In less than an hour, I'll be chatting with @ronscompvids.bsky.social ! www.youtube.com/watch?v=dywb...

Friends of the channel Error 47 did an awesome concert in Portland last weekend. Lots of point and click covers! www.youtube.com/live/mH9fbAB...

In the big Dagger video, I cut out about 2 minutes of the inaccessible conversations between Laura and O'Riley about the murders. Here's the rest of it (SPOILERS, obviously): youtu.be/u26Ry2crmy8

Be sure to join @oneshorteye.bsky.social and I for an interesting chat about the legacy of Sierra Online’s Laura Bow series! This Wednesday at 9e/8c/7m/6p! www.youtube.com/live/dywbD2o...

From the desk of @oneshorteye.bsky.social: An almost 4 hour long dissertation about why Laura Bow 2: The Dagger of Amon Ra is such a beautiful clusterfuck of an adventure game? Inject that shit into my veins. youtu.be/nSODB1CRez0

It is done. This took about two years from research to release, and I doubt I’ll ever make something of this scope ever again. I’m so thankful to everyone who supported me. Grab a cup of your favorite beverage, curl up in a cozy space, and enjoy. youtu.be/nSODB1CRez0

Wow! @oneshorteye.bsky.social has remixed one of the tracks from An English Haunting for his Spooky Adventure Game Lofi Beats. Both Matías and I are thrilled about it. Give it a listen! 🔊 www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGRf...

Happy October! In honor of Spooky Season, I'm releasing a collection of dark lofi tracks, and every one of them is either a cover of an adventure game tune, or contains a sample from an adventure game. youtu.be/IGRfWsK4_kA?... oneshorteye.bandcamp.com/album/spooky...

A priceless dagger is missing. The museum is locked. And the guests aren't leaving alive... In this episode, Anna and @thephantomfellows.bsky.social team up with @oneshorteye.bsky.social to unravel #Sierra's The Dagger Of Amon Ra! www.cggpodcast.com/e/the-dagger... #ClassicGames #VGA #DeepDive

A while ago, I asked people what adventure game puzzles pissed them off the most. I got quite a few good responses and made them into a video: youtu.be/KqgYJ6V_Xjk Feat. @oneshorteye.bsky.social, @adventuregamegeek.bsky.social, @princess-pearl.bsky.social, and @thephantomfellows.bsky.social.

@oneshorteye.bsky.social Excellent KQIV video, I'm glad to have gotten to see all the small details I missed in my playthrough. And I'm blessed to have been able to discover those KQ chillout tracks you were using as BGM

My Fair & Balanced Retrospective of Tex Murphy: The Pandora Directive premieres live in 10 minutes! Come hang out and let's watch it together. youtu.be/wwhXmIx3I84 #adventuregames #TexMurphy

The Dagger of Amon Ra initially had copy protection. When you failed it, the characters would make fun of you. The CD version removed this. But (most) of the voice lines were recorded, even though they're not accessible! youtu.be/1Xv2kTn-Wac

Today, at 12 PM Pacific, I'll be playing Laura Bow: The Dagger of Amon Ra with @spacequesthistorian.com and others to honor the life of Roberta Vaughan. It'll be simulcast on these channels: www.twitch.tv/oneshorteye www.youtube.com/spacequesthi... www.twitch.tv/spacequesthi...

On Aug. 2 at 9 PM CEST (12 PM PST / 3 PM EST), @oneshorteye.bsky.social and Anna ( @cggpodcast.bsky.social ) will hold a memorial livestream for Roberta Vaughan. Laura Bow II was one of her favorite games so we'll play that. It will be simulcast on my Twitch/YT and OSE's Twitch. Links in comment.

A few days ago I released a patch which replaces the unhinged movement system in Tex Murphy: Under A Killing Moon with mouselook + WASD. Turns out the sequel is pretty much the same, so here's a mod for The Pandora Directive. Feast your eyes on this side-by-side comparison github.com/moralrecordi...

My first proper "solo album" in 8 years is a collection of industrial metal, synthwave, and creepy electronic soundscapes. It's a free download and you're welcome to use the music in your videos, streams, game projects, etc. alchemydk.bandcamp.com/album/wake-up

Wow, this looks like a great game about playing fetch with innocent dogs. I bet it was designed by a real gentleman and I'm sure SQH loved it.

When I bought my big box Dagger of Amon Ra off eBay, there was a photocopy of Sierra's internal walkthrough (used by customer support) inside. Finally got around to scanning it today. Haven't seen this posted anywhere online before. www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/eqvuk...

Really saddened over what Adventure Gamers has become. It was THE resource for adventure game news for almost 25 years. Seeing my first games reviewed there in the early 00s was the biggest thrill in the world. To see it turn into THIS is heartbreaking. Enshittification destroys everything.

NEW VIDEO: I've taken a combined look at Old Skies ( @wadjeteyegames.bsky.social ) and Rosewater ( @grundislav.games ) and how they typify the evolution of the modern point-and-click adventure game. youtu.be/EgBM66m86Kw

NEW VIDEO: I played four adventure games that devs sent to me unsolicited and here are my honest opinions. One of them is unforgivably shit; another is one of the best games I've played in recent memory. youtu.be/wM6ZgtRPAPo

I bought this immediately. Hob's Barrow is a gem.

We are thrilled to announce the Hob's Barrow physical Nintendo Switch edition is available for pre-order via www.lostincult.com! We've worked closely with @lostincult.co.uk to create a very special limited edition featuring all manner of goodies, a standard retail version and the OST on vinyl!

New video! This time it's a collab between myself and @spacequesthistorian.com detailing many of the broken ways of Police Quest II. www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2Pq...

Sigh. I dunno why @adventuregamers.bsky.social insists on keeping this phrase in. We did ask them to correct it. It’s easily verifiable that the VAs in Old Skies are professionals who were paid fairly and aren’t in it for “the exposure.” To say otherwise is an insult to all the actors’ hard work.

Some game retrospectives require a ton of analysis. Other games are so insanely beyond analysis that they overflow and go into the negatives. youtu.be/lwDlm1IOM2o

This Saturday at noon Pacific time, I'm going to be premiering my speedrun history of Quest for Glory II. It's over an hour, and I think it's the best speedrun history I've done so far. I'll drop a link a few hours beforehand. Hope to see you there!

ROSEWATER has been out one week, and has completely exceeded my expectations both critically and commercially. Thanks to everyone who has bought, played, reviewed, or helped spread the word about it! I appreciate you all.

ROSEWATER IS OUT! A Wild West adventure about friendship, storytelling, and found family. It's been a journey making this game. I sincerely hope you enjoy it. 🤠🌵 Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/1226670/... GOG: www.gog.com/en/game/rose...

I had the pleasure of beta-testing Rosewater. If you're interested in adventure games *at all*, you should really check this out ASAP. It's a game that people are going to be talking about for a long time as a pillar of the genre.

Speedrunner Cane just put out a wonderful video about an insane trick in Quest for Glory II that earned him a new world record. youtu.be/pPYdyAIoWNs?...

This is my kind of review! Snarky, funny, and full of swearing. I gotta dive deeper into this person's catalogue. youtu.be/Mx2UN9-oYYE

This is such a keen diagnosis of the state of the industry in general and the indie segment in particular. Especially this: “Austerity politics doesn’t help people make good art or live good lives.”

I figured out how the end-of-act ratings work in the Dagger of Amon Ra. youtu.be/88ySPfTs-TI

Att: Tex Murphy fans. @richardcobbett.bsky.social and I did an interview with @aaron-conners.bsky.social about the games and novels. I posted a snippet of it on my main channel, and will dole out more snips in the coming days/weeks: youtu.be/eJrDgIYo0Ig Link to the full interview in reply: 👇

I can't tell you how many times I've watched @oneshorteye.bsky.social's video on Conquests of the Longbow and I'm amazed every time. The game itself, the level of detail & info in the video, the STELLAR fan cast from the community. This is one of the best YouTube videos ever youtu.be/MYawahBTJaI?...

Please watch this video and encourage SQH to complain about more games that were released this century.
