Taking it easy at work today. I've been pulling up trees as it were for the last couple of months, and even having a weeks holiday ended up wasted as relaxation as I came back into chaos. Thankfully, one of the sources of that chaos is now removed, but I need to slow down and look after myself.

Today's #retrogaming on the #ZXSpectrum #Pentagram from #Ultimate, it's isometric but not as bad as some isometric games. Plus, it's Sabreman, in disguise, in a forest ( so like a 3D SabreWulf!) It's not as good as SabreWulf, but it's still a bit of fun.

A reminder that tomorrow is Independent Bookstore Day, so make plans to visit your local indie bookseller and keep the money in the community, rather than being used to fire rich women into space for a lark.

Reminder that gender segregation in most sports has nothing to do with biology and everything to do with dudes not being able to handle getting beaten by women.

This is pure eco-terrorism. It protects nothing but developers profits and fucks the environment for generations to come.

Young people SHOULD “have it easier” than you did. I’m sorry you got the strap up hill both ways and paid your debts with pounds of flesh, but the reason we work for progress is to make growing up and growing old gentler, easier, kinder, freer. Struggle isn’t necessary in a healthy society.

This scummy arsehole is giving away the SMS version of Jurl, I charge $1 for it to help with development costs, and frankly it's slimey tossers like this that ruin the community www.youtube.com/@MmmRevolution #RetroGaming #IndieDev #RetroDev #Scum

Learning how to lose, and lose gracefully is one of life's most important lessons. There are few things uglier than a sore loser. Losing should teach humility and grace. You can always tell who learned that lesson, and who didn't.

We've seen some confusion about our upcoming #NintendoSwitch2 releases. Our physical editions for Rune Factory, STORY OF SEASONS, and Daemon X Machina in the West will feature the full game on the cartridge. Hope that helps clear things up. 👍

There will be a new video on Sunday. 12 noon British time. Be prepared.

Looks like some games on the game-key carts are too big to fit on the largest available (64gb), and others are so small that it isn't "cost effective" to ship on a pure cart. I'm guessing here that the majority of 3rd party Switch 2 titles will be game-key releases....
