Having spent the last year working with the BPL on the new TTBT, I'm happy to now share some of the bits I made for the episode! First of all - the magazine scene! This one is the one I'm proudest of! Here are the main cover pages. (fun fact: The 3rd one originally said 'LADY LUCK IS A CANOPIAN!')

Having recently beaten Blood on my Switch, I'm reminded at how immaculately that game handles combat encounters. Hitscan cultists aside, all the enemies have their own unique combat dance that makes them really interesting to engage in all varied environments, more so over Duke or Shadow warrior.

Cursed game idea: B-Party, a comedy TBRPG. Doom looms over the kingdom and the brave heros sent to defeat the evil overlord have gone missing! Its now down to you, the B-party, to save them!

I love how almost every game news channel posts titles like 'OMG YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT [GAME COMPANY] DID!' and then you get Valve related posts and they all read like cthulu cultists dawning on the monster they are summoning. Shit like 'It's over. Valve won'

Funny DnD story: When the party was going through loot, we found an sleeping cap. It looks neat and our rough arcana checks led us to think it helped people sleep. We kept it but never used it.

I actually love how all the content for Mechwarrior 5 Clans (maingame and DLC) have been "So this is how we F**ked up..." The Tukayyid DLC just enforces that. 10/10 pay your phone bill nerds.

Me: The helldivers minigun cant be that good. There has to be a catch... Me 30 mins later:

Quick Corn kidz

The funniest thing about XcomFiles is that you can have: -a squad of rookie secret agents, -a dropship cartying a nightmare fuel deathsquad -and the mystery mobile where Magic Steve, Meatfist and Gilbert Godfre exclusively detain suspects by using magic staffs of testicular torsion.

I have successfully survived another year. I shall commemorate this moment with excessive amounts of mead.

Dumb DnD concept: Adopt-A-Skeleton. The dreaded necromancer has been defeated, his castle is in ruins and his skeleton army is... just standing around? Now the local kingdom must work out what is the morally correct thing to do with these 'prisoners of war'.

Yet another Fever dream game idea: A survival crafting game taking place is a giant (and I mean GIANT) warehouse complex. Trapped inside a giant cold-war era storage complex, you must survive until either rescue arrives or you find your own way out.

One of my fav life experiences is going to the pharmacy to get my meds and watching the colour drain from the techs face like they've just handed me a loaded gun as they double check the prescription.

oh, btw, the single greatest "take" on section 31 came from the ttrpg of star trek, which posits that section 31 is fake doesn't exist we made it up it is a creation of starfleet intelligence that serves as both a distraction for the Tal'Shiar and Obsidian Order and a way to capture bad actors

Lemme tell you, kids. Never hire artists who DM you out of nowhere on discord. Worst mistake I've made all year. The last few days have been a nightmare of dealing with an AI artist scammer.

I've discovered you can tell precisely what era of internet someone is from depending on if they type emoticons or use emoji, and which ones they use. I call it Emojiscopic dating. I shall now date myself with >:3

Get yourself a DM who makes a whole ass website just to host letters sent to the PC's after the campaign. im digging through some early notes for our second campaign in the setting and remembered that @thunderpsyker.bsky.social did this for us. Insane levels of world building

What a time to be alive.

NGL, I would give a foot to be one of those guys who gets paid to make hype edits / adverts of military hardware for the M.I.C. Hell yeah, Gimmie that military grade vocalless buttrock and stock 3D footage. I'll sell you to everyone from Generals to Grandmas!

I've been sitting around on my thumbs waiting on a package for the last 2 hours, watching it get closer and closer on the tracking app. Only to then get a 'sorry we missed you' message with a photo of blocks front door. Dude didnt press the door bell. What the actual fuck...

Dumb game idea: 'Stand&Deliver!' - A payday 2 style heisting game where you play a group of highwaymen robbing their way up to toppling a corrupt governor. I'm picturing Ned Kelly style armour and trapdoor rifles, with a sprinkle of darktide melee combat thrown in.

Tried out the bubsy 4D demo. Wicked good. Think I'll get it on my switch instead of PC, feels like it'd be more at home on it.

Forgot I made this edit like... (checks notes) ...6 years ago.

Crysis 1: OH WOW I SURE LOVE MY SUPER SUIT. Crysis 2: This lifesupport machine is slowly killing me. Man, what a fantastic direction to take it.

This GIF demostrating a cats righting reflex from wikipedia always cracks me up. Its so silly, who animated this? Why?

MENACES TO SOBERITY! (Go play the Menace demo by @overhypestudios.bsky.social - its good!)

Menace confirmed for good game. Will make shitpost soon

Me: "it's getting colder, I should get some sports armsocks to keep toasty" My brain: [dial up noises] these make you feel pretty. W H Y

Terrible game idea - Planetside style mmoFPS but the player factions are mercenary groups whose allegiances change over the course of a 'campaign' based on a live-service 'corporate war' plotline. W/ Clan leaders and high rank players getting more say in who they wanna throw in with.

cursed game idea: Battletech RTS set in one of the earlier the succession wars, where you pick a lance of mechs as hero units for each mission, but can requisition infantry and tanks as more general amassable forces. The challenge this is to use your mechs carefully, and counter your opps use.

There's a part of me that really wants to shamelessly rip off Knudson just so I can make an hour long documentary on the decade long story of True Capitalist Radio. I think Its genuinely fascinating how the story unfolded, and how massively it changes if you think Ghost is genuine or not.

youtu.be/EKRkAEjjhpE Nothing ever happens...

If I were a more silly sort, I could make my next video about YIIK or Little Tail Bronx. Just come outta the dark to drop a totally unhinged video unrelated to anything else I've covered.

Woe, psychic damage upon ye

Dumb world building concept: time travelers identifying each other by making cultural references ahead of their current time and framing them as obscure philosophical teaching and poems.

Played through all of @mightyyell.bsky.social 's‬ Missile Command Delta... I didn't intend to play it all in one sitting but the loop of exploring and doing missile defenses hooked me good. I also did not expect how... neat... the true ending would be. 8/10 solid game, would recommend.

FUCKING. BUBSY. 4D?! And it looks GOOD?! What a timeline.

Bubsy 4-Ever in Bubsy 4D. 🙀‼️ The bobcat is back in a brand new adventure! 😼 Wishlist: https://link.atari.com/Bubsy4D

Two years ago everyone bullied us into making this... And now it's real. We're making a Bubsy 3D Sequel.

...Guess I'm going to bed then.

Not even two days into having the apartment all to myself and I'm already making myself belly laugh at 2am by putting on my best solid snake voice and saying 'UUGGHA COLONEL IVE SHIT MYSELF!' All I'm saying is, I'd be the best person to put in a secluded empty ski resort.

Rando: "Hey White, What have you been up to?" Me: Modding mods of mods...

So the beta for Project Silverfish from @siristhedragon.bsky.social just dropped and it's great so far, and you can tell it's a true love letter to the STALKER series because I keep coming across goofy shit like this and it rules

There's kobolds in the trenches [ #Kobolds ]

Yesterday I posted a bunch of pages from an interactive fiction project I'm working on - 'RuinsWiki'. The desired end goal of the project would be a website structured as a backup/dump of the eponymous RuinsWiki, posted by a former user after the events of the story.
