I’ve always felt that a highly underrated aspect of Mega Man is how it expanded on 2D movement in a post-Mario Bros landscape. I will forever stand firm that MM1 holds up and was a landmark achievement in the history and progression of video games as a still nascent medium.

like last time (about crypto), pretty sure the discord survey about AI integration is something they'll use to show their shareholders to prove it's a bad investment. otherwise they wouldn't have had those super negative responses as choices. you should still be overwhelmingly mean about it though.

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI. Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

In the Forest Secret Area in Super Mario World, there are three 1-Ups after the goal that seem impossible to collect without flying, as walking through the goal destroys them. However, there is an extremely simple trick to get them every time: simply press L before touching the goal.

Valve has now rejected my complaint, confirming that "I don't like muslims" is a valid reason to leave a negative review on a game on Steam This is where we're at now.

Genuinely incredibly fascinating study in what marketing vectors lead to literally zero sales here, wowwww kotaku.com/king-meat-gl...

Sand Shower Zone was a tileset developed by Brenda Cook for 'Sonic 2', but was not used in the final game. The Video Game History Foundation digitized her VHS portpholio, which included an animated visual for the stage.

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features." There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Okay because I'm touhou posting, I'm remembering this great Marisa line

The last time I was at a studio with a layoff, a meeting was derailed because the director asked, with increasing irritation, which engineer was supposed to design a feature that underpinned the whole game. That engineer had been laid off 2 days prior, and no one else knew how to do it.

yeah no this is genuinely like, a really bad mark on gaming fandom in general but even today people laugh it off and try to frame it like they brought it on themselves because "sonic fans are just sooooo weird" even now people feel enabled to go way too far at a whim

I hadn't heard of Qzilla, the production company behind Crunchyroll's Sekiro anime. The trailer okay, but something felt kind of off. Looked them up on MAL and they didn't seem to have much motion in terms of the thirteen things its produced. Checked the company website and lo and behold.
