We need more games where you drive kind of crappy cars.

Somehow, I've spent the past few months writing a TV script in a font that doesn't exist. Now it is in the correct font, and it has over doubled the page count. I have now spent the past five hours correcting everything to get it back to where it should be. So, bang goes today's plans, again!

For the past few weeks, I've been working on a video trying to predict how certain consoles and their developers will do in the next gaming generation. Given everything that keeps happening with Xbox, I keep having to update it. And I wish I'd posted it earlier, as I'd look super smart right now.

I'm surprised that no one seems to have done a "Tron: Ares? More like Tron: Arse!" (Or words to that effect) Joke yet. If you already have, I have good news and bad news. The good news is we are of a similar mind. The bad news is that we are of a similar mind.

Man, Jared Leto is like the kiss of death to any movie he gets cast in, isn't he?

Time for this week's #indiegame preview with The Last World's: Crossed souls, which is being developed by @lupiostudios.bsky.social. This 3D Indie Fantasy game takes inspiration from The Legend Of Zelda and Dragon's Quest. But is it shaping up well? Find out in this preview! youtu.be/SSbnDCPqYcU

Hey folks! So, there may be a bit of a delay on the next video, so consider this a preview of the next preview, which is for The Last Worlds: Crossed Souls. The developers reached out to me to take a look at it. And I'll be sharing my thoughts soon. www.kickstarter.com/projects/lup... #indiegame

The great #indiegame extravaganza SAGExpo is back! And I decided to make a video about it, and being the stubborn soul I am, I decided to make things needlessly difficult by trying to talk about 44 games I liked in less than 5 minutes. Mistakes were made! youtu.be/sOEY4SQuYUo

Working on a video for this year's SAGE 25. It is going to be a little different to some of the other videos I've done on the gaming channel. And if nothing else, just admire the effort of trying to talk about 44 different games in the span of less than 5 minutes.

Running late, but that won't stop me from doing this week's indie game preview. This week, we're looking at Bobo Bay, a game that is a spiritual successor to the Chao Gardens from the Sonic Adventure games! #IndieGame #Game #BoboBay #Sonic youtu.be/5MpQo_oSlyo

Time for another video on video game-related things. This week, I'm looking at the recent #PlayAcclaim event and giving my humble opinion on what was shown. Is it a grand return? Or a waste of time! Find out in this video! youtu.be/CoX6Br0RFpI #indiegame #videogame

I have a feeling the Nintendo Switch Virtual Boy thing will sell more units than the original Virtual Boy. Not sure how to feel about that. But I know some classic game collectors are going to be steamed when they flood the second-hand market in a decade and they mistake them for the original.

Back to wearing trousers again. Feels weird, man.

Time for another video on an upcoming #indie release. This time, a preview of Wonder Wand. A 2D Action game that feels in the tradition of the classic Legend of Zelda games. This is a review I've had in the back pocket for a while now. So I hope you enjoy it. #Indiegame #Gaming youtu.be/HSuaHD4OK4w

Last night, I saw my first Christmas advert of the year. Two days into September, and we're already getting Christmas adverts! 😬

If socks get too wet, then they become soaks.

100 years ago, if you saw a job posting offering you double or triple your current pay, you'd go along to it and get chased by a Bela Lugosi-type mad scientist trying to revive his dead bride. These days, it's a front for some data broker or AI tech company. Either way, you're losing your soul.

A new indie game review from me. This week, looking at the digital paint-by-numbers game Coloring Voxels. This isn't the kind of game I typically play, but I was impressed by it. Find out more here: youtu.be/VsOkXe-oD5g #indiegame #review

I know this will seem like an odd take. But sod it, it's Friday. I will never stop being amazed that, thanks to homebrewers and we are living in a time period where there are new games coming out for the Amiga, Spectrum, N64 and more. Sure, I won't be playing them on real hardware, but still neat.

It has been a while since I've done a video on an indie game release. And, well, this week's video isn't on a game that has been released, but a preview instead! City Of Voices is an upcoming indie adventure game set in the UK in the early 2000s. And is pretty bloody neat! youtu.be/o1ovWWeIZCU

How the hell am I only just now hearing this one? www.youtube.com/watch?v=063R...

I ate marmalade for the first time today. It was on toast too.

Remember folks, where there is smoke, there is coughing.

Confidential Killings is a neat up-coming point 'n' click adventure game. Whilst I have a video on it coming before too long, why not read what I had to say about it in the meantime? www.keengamer.com/articles/pre...

I wouldn't be a day on Bluesky without seeing a picture of a dog that has been horrifically mangled and posted in a trending topic that has nothing to do with it. Joy, joy of joys. Good morning me.

When I was a kid, I thought Hulk Hogan was the coolest guy ever. It was right when he was at his apex as popularity, a pop culture icon. Then, when I grew up and learnt what an utter cock he was, it felt like a "Don't meet your heroes" thing. And I can't say I'll miss him now. Bollocks to him.

LinkedIn really is like a more modern MySpace. It is this continuum of random people adding in the effort of having the largest friends list around in the hope that it will lead to something grander down the line. And every now and again, someone posts a picture of their cat.

Welp, can't do an indie game-related video this week due to a sudden health complication. Bugger!

Oh the joys of being in an area where, as soon as the weather gets slightly above average, there is some bastard out with an angle grinder.

I put too much honey in my tea.

Time for another #indiegame review. This time with a game for the ZX Spectrum (no, really!) called Operation Moo. A game where you play a space man trying to save cows, cats, mogwai and more from aliens! youtu.be/yFlvK2Gvc1I

Time for another look at an upcoming indie game title, this time Wander Stars! I played and reviewed this developer's prior title UnderHero and thought it was rather neat! And in this 90s anime inspired turn based RPG, you create your own attacks with a selection of words! Neat! youtu.be/QWluDpfoxYw

Amazing how, no matter what social media site I'm on it will always tell me The Archers is trending even though I only listened to one episode a decade ago.

I sometimes listen to horror movie soundtracks to relax. I feel sorry for the composers. They were trying to make heart-pounding, terror-inducing music, and there is me just vibing to it as I try to figure work things out.

And after many crossed fingers, it is time for my first Switch 2-related review with Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour! See, I don't just talk about indie games all the time, sometimes I get disappointed over major releases too! I mean, I'd rather not but yeesh... youtu.be/2aEe7VfZMdU

Whilst everyone goes ga-ga over Switch 2 or gets mardy over that new Deadpool game, I have been busy at work making a new indie game review. This time, I take a look at the PC port of Scale The Depths. Watch the video to see what yours truly felt. #indiegame youtu.be/_EQDOxGgIWA

So, after some fiddling, I got the Switch 2 set up. Due to the fact the system is (seemingly still) a tad picky on what you can or cannot play when downloading things, it means my grand introduction to this bold new world of gaming was replaying the port of James Pond: Codename Robocod.

Ha! Don't have to wake up early when you hardly sleep at all!

So I ordered the Switch 2 before things got "complex" (I'll explain another time). I get an email telling me that they'll send me an email to give me a password to give to the person who is delivering it at some point tomorrow. I don't know when it will be sent. So I may need to get up rather early.

T'other day I released my first video videogame review in, well a while. The game to kick this back off was indie-stealth game Prince Of Prussia! You should check the review out and then check the game out. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hP71... #indiegame

Falling asleep in your own dreams is a strange feeling.

I could do a lot if I had a little more money.

Here we are, a good twenty years since high school and there is still a part of me that chimes up on a Sunday like "Are you SURE you don't have any homework due tomorrow?".

Why isn't the opposite of a moron a moroff?

Why is it that in my dreams french fries always taste so terrible? Everything else in the dream could be going wonderfully, but then I eat a french fry and all I get is disappointment.

It's amazing how getting a text reminding me I have the dentist on Wednesday has really bollocksed up my mood for today!

Man, that Chilli Miso Soup paste I got from the supermarket last week really just tastes like the standard paste but with black pepper in it. What a bloody waste of money.

Whoever decided the Easter break should come BEFORE Easter is a moron. It should be in the middle of it, with a week on either side. Not this stupid "Two weeks then Easter!" crap. And I say this as someone who doesn't have a dog in that fight.

Look out folks! The first episode of a brand new series of Doctor Who has landed, which means a new review from me. Back on Saturday mornings because the BBC is being dumb as a bag of rocks. But did this episode rock? Or did I find it just dumb? Find out or don't! www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3-h...

Wait, what if Spongebob drowned?
