We've compiled a list of @nobogasawara.bsky.social's comments on localizing Torneko's Great Adventure 2: Mystery Dungeon (as World of Dragon Warrior: Torneko: The Last Hope) It's not a total history of the localization effort, but it's a start. mysterydungeonwiki.com/wiki/Draft:M...

Mr. Heli no Daibouken was an obscure shoot-'em-up from Irem that broke most of the rules: you often had control over the scrolling and your power ups were purchased with money you found on stages. youtu.be/1ZoFd8LiUJ4

Wanna read classic Neal Adams comics? 🧵 For Batman, short of the originals, B&W Showcase reprints are the way to go. As an old man, Adams digitally redrew his work. Ruined it. It's not just recoloring. Here's the full vintage Adams collection.

Hey so I finally got around to finishing season 4 of Star Trek Discovery and to my delight, it's FINALLY a really good show. The first season was kind of a disaster, second season was really up and down although all the Pike stuff helped a lot....

game development is fucking hard. scope creep WILL kill your game, i swear to god. make smaller games. your game will inevitably be bigger than you intended, so make it REAL little. i'm not kidding. source: it's me, i made games

The iconic key visual for The Tower of Druaga was a collaborative effort by Namco's publicity team. The team created several dioramas and placed in little cell-shaded illustrations of the characters before photographing and airbrushing in effects to create the finished art we know today!

There is a woman here at the DMV with her I guess 16 year old son. She is wearing the most incredible shirt. It has a parody of the Marlboro logo, but instead of saying "Marlboro", it says, "Mother". I feel like my brain is melting, but maybe that's just the DMV.

Apropos of nothing, if you're a dev making a dating sim (not a romance VN, but, y'know something with mechanics) and wanna talk to someone bilingual who knows a thing or two about the Japanese ones you might have trouble playing, like, legit, I'm happy to do consulting. Let's talk shop, seriously. 🤙

Last night I saw Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack in the theatre with the cool @madamcrime.bsky.social and the rad @mangadungeon.bsky.social! It wasn't my first time with Char and his Counterattacking, but I feel a little different than I did last time, so let's examine this '80s movie! 🧵

This time on Scrolling Down the Belt, we take a look at two games that are very goofy, and one that is VERY broken: The Ninja Kids and Burning Fight! If you've ever wanted to fight in the streets of Osaka, this one's for you! youtu.be/I7gltxoJpbU

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

one of the greatest games of the last 10 years is broken bones v, a roblox game. you throw yourself off a mountain and try to break as many bones as possible while flopping your way down. really has that "just one more run" "i can top my max score!" score arcade feel. www.roblox.com/games/111793...
