Elphelt Valentine⚡️💀⚡️ commissioned by @thekindestweapon.bsky.social #commission #GuiltyGear #GGST #GuiltyGearStrive

I was gonna copy @ryyudo.bsky.social and do a train travel AMA, but instead I am talking with this cool grandma.

Well, I'm going to be on a train for a few hours. Time to catch up on something great and terrible by @missshadowlovely.bsky.social @tietuesday.bsky.social and @slowbeef.bsky.social Can't wait to hear wh- DOES THAT SAY ANNE FRANK???

I wrote more words about how it feels to be a translator watching the games press report on AI and labor, coming from a field that's fought these battles for decades. It may look like I'm beating up on one outlet, but it's not about them; I've been trying to write this for me and my peers all year.

This is what being ace is like.

please watch movies and read books and play games and look at art, please view it with your own eyes through a lens you made yourself and not just through video essayists and ending explained videos please im begging you

The DUNGEON GALS #NextFest demo has LAUNCHED! Play as a cute throuple and save a civilization in the sky from disaster! store.steampowered.com/app/2864880/...

Here's the Retro Awardments for Blue Stinger I was working on. I can't support them platforming hate and trying to non-committal "both sides" backstep. My Retro Achievements claim was dropped despite being told it wouldn't do that in review so I'm done with 'em. blog.retroheart.net/blog/retro-a...

Reposting this more to help myself remember after work, but y'all should grab this book too. Then we can talk about it like we're in a library book club! Complete with library book club drama if you want; not against role-playing here.

👀

My tiny TTRPG, Tiny Mall Wizards, is in full release! Singlesided and Booklet printable format PDFs are available along with a blank mall layout on my Itch page. I am wicked proud of getting this goofy little game out the door, and I hope you enjoy it! greenintern.itch.io/tiny-mall-wi...

happy 9th anniversary! #talesofberseria

The words "asymmetric fighting game" flashed in my mind. What do I do with this?

A mouse with a sword for @tietuesday.bsky.social and @wobblypython.bsky.social.

Time to find out if Ryyudo's food "crime" is any good.

Brian is among the top of my list of artists I'll reach out to when I have a project that suits them. I think peeps should commission them until (and after) that day happens!

Let the press know that @boyks.neocities.org was sincerely frightened. www.twitch.tv/boyks/clip/A...

Shoutouts to Gregg Egg, aka @teddyras.bsky.social, for one of the best runs at #SGDQ Egg youtu.be/CIXuOXKBlU0

Goddamn. SGDQ just had an all-black femme/NB speedruning crew doing Wolfenstein 2, and ending it with a public call to stand up to fascism, and a reminder that "These are our woods.". Fuck yeah.

Happy 4th of Whatever

Drove through a diverging diamond today for the first time while my housemate was in the car. They were very confused about my excitement. Me: "Wait is this a diverging diamond!?" Also me: "YOOOO, there are cars on that side, I think this is a diverging diamond." Me again: "OH YEAH, IT TOTALLY IS."

I put together a tiny userstyle which moves Steam's content note box up near the purchase options so you know upfront if it uses genAI https://gist.github.com/ticky/a86d1749da142ea7b6dd5582748b461e

Brian is a cool person. Does cool art, takes cool photographs, talks about cool things, recognized the cool Xenoblade necklaces I wore during magfest, etc. Check out the game!

Happy Pride Month to All

Watching @teddyras.bsky.social speedrun Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster once a week be like:

I forgot I did this.

Just rode my bike to the grocery store to get heavy cream and chicken stock and also came out with the lad. Feeling like @lottemakesstuff.pink

This is high art

What the fuck.

Announcing TORMENT HEXUS, a match-3 roguelike about putting technofascist CEOs on the wrong side of skyscraper windows! Please spread the word, and wishlist on Steam at store.steampowered.com/app/3238420/... And remember: they SHOULD be afraid of us. #indiedev #indiegame

Featuring games from: @deconstructeam.bsky.social @maddymakesgames.com and many others 🏳️‍⚧️ checkpointgaming.net/features/202...

As promised to @prettypinkpansy.bsky.social . This dog is for you. #food

What would someone's personal top-5 games have to be to trigger a red flag? I don't necessarily think it has to be five bad games. It might be more of a bad sign if someone has contradicting or contrasting games in their list. Something that brings their media literacy into question or something.

I've been looking for this Trails post everywhere and I finally found it.

Another Elphelt to be added to the Elphelt birthday tree in December. I will celebrate anything other than Christmas. The cool artists I commission are the real heroes behind this bit.

Did you know? When you get stickers from this dude, you can get a cool original drawing like this.

Hey, I just finished the prologue case and y'all should check it out. If it seems like the kind of game you'd be into, IT IS. The prologue is free to play too! It oozes with style and I can tell future chapters are going to be rad.

www.twitch.tv/tietuesday/c... I DID MIPS CLIP WITH A GUN WE BEAT BOWSER 1&2 I WAS SO CLOSE TO BLJ I COULD TASTE IT GAMERS THE NIGHT TREATED YA BOY WELL

How do you make a perilous Rainbow Road with 24 racers? Track might be too wide. Do you just not make it comfortably wide? Have alternate narrow paths with risk-and-reward scenarios? New Mario Kart balancing questions occasionally occupy my mind. Item balance and track design should see a shake up.

Baked a lot of chocolate-chunk orange-zested cookies along with a lot of oatmeal cranberry cookies for MAG. From what I understand, they mostly lived between @ryyudo.bsky.social 's and @sword.zone 's rooms. Glad y'all enjoyed them and got through most of them. Thinking of what to bake next year...

So glad tinahacks made it to the live Arcade Pit.

Big ups from the Arcade Pit live panel at MAGfest!!

Y'all should watch and support Voxandra. This video is a great way to get to know her.

I’m going to be running Zelda 1 Randomizer at Frost Fatales 2025!

The people do not comprehend the implications of 24 racers in the new Mario Kart. Think of item balance and catchup mechanics. A blue shell as it is now means nothing to someone in 24th place. What new items and changes to items are going help you there? This could be a huge change!

What if we kissed behind Yoshi's Diner?

DOGS-Cast 2024 is happening Tuesday, December 24th! @ryyudo.bsky.social, @boyks.bsky.social, and I will be playing through Blue Stinger with Hassy drink(?) and food (???) sub goals! Be there! Or don't! I'm not a cop! (But it'd be cool if you can make it we'd like to see you)

Remember the reason we celebrate: Elphelt's birthday is on the 25th! Comments have direct links to the art of @drdubz.bsky.social @kujikawaii.bsky.social @rosesongstress.bsky.social @chocolatedave.bsky.social @hexingale.bsky.social @retroheart.net @wobblypython.bsky.social and @streez1.bsky.social.
