Found myself scolding a bumblebee for being out in far-too-cold weather while also trying desperately to warm her with my hands so she'll last one more day before winter. This is the flavor of nonsense I choose to indulge in these days. How about you?

Hey, real quick, fuck Square Enix.

Happy 20th Anniversary of the release of Castlevania: Curse of Darkness (Akumajō Dracula: Yami no Juin), 1st released on PS2 & Xbox in North American on Nov. 1, 2005! #retrogaming

STOP THE PRESSES. The ROM for the unreleased Famicom RPG Splatter World has been released (in a thread on 4chan, of all places). I've tried it myself, and it does seem to be genuine. If it's a fake, it's a damn good one. Expect (more) coverage on West Mansion soon. @hg101.bsky.social

Gotta share this one, right under the wire. Happy Halloween, everyone. youtu.be/4uDlGIgDfLg?... @stemage.bsky.social @megabeardo.bsky.social @chunkstylemm.bsky.social @azzydrummer.bsky.social

It's cold, gray and gloomy out & all I want to do is wrap myself up in Silent Hill vibes. #Halloween

Been going through a lot of the Halloween music my friends and I have covered over the years. This one is a total sleeper but I'm still super proud of it. vikingguitar.bandcamp.com/track/manife...

ALL NEW ART! PSWAP #82 - SUPER CASTLEVANIA IV (1991, SNES) art and concept by your pal Rusty

Hit Points Lovecraft

Vampire Survivors still bringing us more Castlevania content than Konami.

Been on a Splatterhouse kick & this is your Halloween reminder the games' soundtracks are killer. Had this arrangement by @steelsamurai.bsky.social @katajun.bsky.social stuck in my head the past few days. #VGM #Horror

An obscure piece of #Splatterhouse artwork most likely featured on a Japanese magazine, just in time for Halloween season. Removed a small element from the top left side, taking few liberties, applying the usual upscale/clan/retouch process. No clue on the artist.

Your regular reminder that Crimson is legitimately one of the best metal albums ever.

i feel so conflicted on what I want Castlevania to do when it eventually comes back. we have so many 2D games that part of me would be more interested in a good 3D action game - but i also dont want anything like lords of shadow ever again

And thus, we reach the final stage with Butterpunk! 🦋 Hoping this cool dude makes it to warmer climates safely!

Catterpunk has liquefied itself and is now Metapunk! 🤘 Such a little badass.

Well don't I feel stupid

Happy Anniversary to the game that started it all! Akumajo Dracula was released on the Famicom Disk System 39 years ago! Grab your whip and some wall meat, slay some vampires and celebrate one of the greatest games ever made! #Castlevania

After fighting aphids all damn summer, I finally had a wanted visitor on my milkweed. And I dub thee, Catterpunk! 🦋

"Manosphere"... you mean this thing?

Happy "Silksong Broke Gaming" Day to all who celebrate.

just another day in the life of a belmont

Oooof, new teaser trailer for the upcoming Silent Hill film is not reassuring me. 😒

Happy 20th Anniversary to Akumajō Dracula: Sōgetsu no Jūjika, aka. Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, released in Japan on the Nintendo DS on Aug. 25, 2005! I spent so much time grinding souls for Weapon Synthesis in this damn game.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 was released on this day back in 1986. Probably a good time to remind you that NO ONE LIVES FOREVER. vikingguitar.bandcamp.com/track/no-one... #texaschainsawmassacre2

From watching just some playthrough of Ninja Gaiden Ragebound, the dev team really knows how to strike a balance between modern gameplay and classic mechanics. I'd love to see them given a chance at Castlevania.

With so much going on in media the past few days, I totally forgot! Monday was the 30th anniversary of the release of Akumajō Dracula XX, aka: Castlevania: Dracula X for the Super Famicom, which debuted in Japan on July 21st 1995! #retrogaming

Happy to release my SNES port of Castlevania! This native SNES port features: 3 Difficulty Levels 14 palette options 6 MSU-1 Soundtrack options Use A or X to throw subweapons Swap between 2 subweapons Rumble support Available here: mega.nz/folder/Ukgjm... or here: archive.org/details/cast...

Hard to find the words. Ozzy, along with Tony, Geezer, and Bill, created a genre of music, and I don't know what I'd do without it. Absolute legend till the very end. RIP Ozzy.

Without Ozzy, I literally would not be living the life that I am today. Heavy metal is a literal life-saver for many of us, and Ozzy was largely responsible for it existing. Long live heavy metal.

Jurassic World Rebirth had the potential to be a Dino Crisis movie & it fumbled the ball.

I love that New Jersey called its big, New York-adjacent city “Newark”. The Alucart Sword of cities

It might be just how the trailer was cut, but I noticed a distinct lack of a certain film-only character in favor of Johnny being the POV. 👀

whatever they do with Castlevania next, I just want it to feel like Castlevania. I don't care if its 2D or 3D, just make it feel like I'm home again
