A wonderful memoir which I found very moving. It sparked a great conversation with my wife, a Hungarian immigrant, about her own family history during the world wars.

A real honour to interview @jmechner.bsky.social for the new issue of @pixeladdict.bsky.social – which also features his amazing art on the cover! The article looks back over each of his games, while also touching on his writing, illustration and film work.

Thought I'd check in on chatgpt and see if it had gotten any better at game history research. It hallucinated an unreleased "Wizards and Warriors IV" project for NES and when I asked what the source was it made up a tweet by...me.

I'm not always sure what our friends in Germany will put on the cover of the local version of Retro Gamer, but I think I'd have died of shock if the Amiga 40th anniversary feature @grahampembrey.bsky.social wrote hadn't been picked.

Arghhh! Happy anniversary to #ReturnToMonkeyIsland! Released three years ago today on #InternationalTalkLikeAPirsteDay @terribletoybox.com @grumpygamer.com @thatdave.bsky.social @rexbox.bsky.social @jenn and so many other fantastic dev team members!

Fun with limited animation on my Playdate game "Sound Mind." Your goal is to deposit cursed doubloons into your own dyspeptic enchanted piggy bank. But since time is critical, you don't want to run out before the bank's had time to digest.

@retrogamermag.bsky.social = approved by cats

Aliens: The Video Games is now in (publisher) edits. Moving along nicely. Looking forward to sharing pre-order links later this year. Again, this is a proper passion project - a delight to speak with devs across five decades about their Alien experiences. Could do with it selling a few copies, tho.

Spotted in CEX. Intriguing and terrifying…

We're so proud to be featured among all these classic games on the cover of the latest Retro Gamer magazine <3 There's also some blurbs from us on the inside. Amiga forever! <3 #Amiga #A500 #A1200 #CD32

Retro Gamer has an absolutely MASSIVE issue celebrating Amiga's 40th anniversary! It's a must read for anyone who had an Amiga back in the day! It contains really interesting articles with all kinds of old time Amiga and game dev heroes! Yours truly from Badger Punch Games are even showing up ❤️🕹️

Great to get a shoutout for Turbo Tomato in Retro Gamer as part of the #Amiga40 special feature :) In stores now... nivrig.itch.io/turbo-tomato #Commodore #Amiga #RetroGaming

This issue contains a beast of an Amiga feature! It was a joy to work on with the RG team. Thanks to all the interviewees including @mdf200.bsky.social @kari.bsky.social @badgerpunch.com @coldstorage.bsky.social @uridiumauthor.bsky.social and many others who may or may not be on Bluesky.

The production samples of the Roguecraft DX Evercade boxes look amazing! Pre-order here! evercade.co.uk/cartridges/r... #amiga #rogue #roguelike #indiegame #indiegamedev

You're about to be stranded on a desert island, but you're allowed to take three Amiga games with you. Which ones do you choose, and why? Pinball Dreams, Another World, Lemmings and Speedball 2 all featured in our team's picks. Some replies will be printed in the magazine.

Happy 32nd Birth-Day of the Tentacle! Taking on the WORLD since June 25 1993. Bonus: The Remaster is on sale today on GOG, Humble, PlayStation, and will be on Steam tomorrow too!

Currently reading: the Night Train to the Stars collection of short stories by Kenji Miyazawa. Surreal, warm-hearted fables with weird anthropomorphic characters. Recommended! 📚

I had the pleasure of interviewing @tsacle.bsky.social and @timoflegend.bsky.social for this issue. Grab a copy for a six-page feature on the work of art that is Grim Fandango!

Last month I did a little experiment. I wanted to see how the exact same post would perform on both X (Twitter) and Bluesky. The results were...interesting... [Thread]

Great to see split-screen games having a bit of a resurgence www.bbc.com/news/article...

Loved writing this piece about the trio of Turrican games released on the Amiga!

Hey, it’s RG 268! For the cover feature, we spoke to developers of Mega Drive arcade conversions of the 90s, including Terminator 2, Mortal Kombat II and NBA Hangtime, as well as the people bringing games like Final Fight, R-Type and Vigilante to the system today. As always, I hope you’ll enjoy it.

Off to see Steve Coogan in the stage adaption of Dr Strangelove. Watched the film last night. What a masterpiece.

Settling in to Bluesky with my first post 🦋 Reading and classic games are two of my passions, so this seems appropriate… I can heartily recommend Gamesmaster: The Oral History. I started it a few days ago and the well-written recollections from Dominik Diamond are delightful. #Booksky #RetroGaming
