Check out this new NES flashcart: www.kickstarter.com/projects/701... It's a lot cheaper than EverDrive N8 Pro, while having some cool enticing features of its own, so it should make it more affordable for more people to play digital releases of NES homebrew games on real consoles.

Excited to announce that my team's entry for #NESJam 2026, Scarecrow Jack, has not only placed 2nd overall, but 1st in the audio department!! I'm so happy that I could work with such a stellar group, and honored that my #chiptune contributions have placed so high. Congrats to all who participated!

Scarecrow Jack got 2nd place overall, I'm stoked!! @levirstar.bsky.social and his killer sound design and music really made it feel alive, and my little characters would've seemed out-of-place without @rhoq.bsky.social and her whimsical stage tiles! I'm very proud of my team and what we made. 🙏

Okay, so today I got into a ska sort of mood. Poking around on YouTube, I found this curious little record of Amy Winehouse doing four songs with steady upbeats. I don't think we'll hear this in a Tony Hawk game, but it's worth a listen for sure. youtu.be/DS-24H0LzAE

I made a page investigating an issue with CSS image-rendering in browsers which is making our pixelart look awful online. Here's my writeup from today's investigations. polyducks.co.uk/pages/image-... #webdev #pixelart #indiedev

Our NES Jam submission is live! Go check out Scarecrow Jack! Character and Game design by yours truly, @rhoq.bsky.social handled the absolutely stunning BG and stage tiles, and @levirstar.bsky.social composed a killer OST! corvuschristoph.itch.io/scarecrow-jack

Pushed some pixels for #NESJam 2026. I think we got a fun little game out of it, if a short one. corvuschristoph.itch.io/scarecrow-jack

So many amazing, high quality maps in @map-center.bsky.social 's 30th anniversary content. Now available with a bugfix patch. If you're into #quake, gotta check this out. 🔥🔥🔥

Naitelveni taking us to magical places again. ✨

Why did you transition, right answers only. For me it was literally just discovering what transition was and seeing some before/after pictures. As soon as I knew what was possible, I had to reevaluate everything. It was maybe a couple months of feeling through that before I started E.

I often have wild dreams and usually remember quite a bit, but the only dream bit I remember from last night is that I had a really good cookie at some point. Better than any cookie could be in waking life. Cookie of my dreams. 🍪✨

I think about Mega Man Legends drawing the mouths at different angles relative to the camera about once a month.

these super low profile thumb braces are the reason i can play video games again and i did a lot of searching to find them. no provider recommended them to me for video games! none of them really knew what to do about gaming. i don't want to gatekeep! www.mothership.blog/a-thumb-brac...

Someone patched GIMP to look and feel exactly like Adobe Photoshop. Same keyboard shortcuts. Same tool layout. Same everything. It's called PhotoGIMP and it's free.

👑

Here's a mockup I made in Photoshop of the idea. Just focusing on the phosphor triads. Might have to zoom in to see what's happening. Now to do it in code... ⌨️

I'm on a nerdy deep dive into ntsc signal processing, and doing some coding related to the idea of simulating a phosphor screen. Having fun. 🤓 #indiedev #crt #coding #retrogaming

Happy 40th anniversary to "The Legend of Zelda" (released on February 21, 1986).

Decide to write an NES-like engine for PC. Just getting the foundational features setup, currently. Palettes, patterns, nametables and such. Rendering happens in two passes, because reasons. She's fast. I call her Daisy (as in princess). Here's today's test data running. #nes #gamedev #pixelart

Did this NES Doom Guy last night. He was a bit more difficult then I had anticipated! #pixelart
