I think any critique of OoT needs to be approached that it was a first outing in 3D and it kinda just fucking nailed everything on the first attempt

We're stoked to introduce the 'No Gen AI' seal for indie games! Indie devs can use it on their game's store page to assure potential players that their game was made without the use of Generative AI. You can grab it from the Polygon Treehouse website:- www.polygon-treehouse.com/no-gen-ai-seal

LMAO???

this will literally be the only time I ever, EVER encourage anyone to go to twitter but you should check the official monster hunter account :3

After an appeal from my publisher, Balatro has been reclassified by PEGI from 18+ to 12+ This is a good step from PEGI - bringing nuance to their ratings criteria that used to be 18+ or nothing. I hope this change will allow developers to create without being unfairly punished

the zoot suit Samus meme is interesting because Tom & Jerry's Hep Kats (1943) is really the first "metroidvania." The early route into the girl's house is closed off, so Tom has to collect pieces of more powerful gear and then backtrack. I am making this post specifically to piss off 2-3 game devs.

Shoutout to the absolute champ who is bringing #Skellboy representation to every level!!! I love it!!

found this in my notes, good advice for aspiring devs

Age yourself with a movie you saw in the theater

Happy 39th Birthday to The Legend of Zelda! 🎂🎉🎈 #zelda #tloz

I remember the day this game was announced out of the blue, and I was like "Whhaaattt??? HOW??? PLATINUM GAMES?!?!?!!!" I couldn't believe my eyes. And then it came out and it was glorious. What a great game. Imo not as great as the first one, but far more influential for all the right reasons.

Happy Anniv TLoZ my beloved!!! #thelegendofzelda #tloz

Happy 39th anniversary to The Legend of Zelda, one of my favs game sagas 🩵

Nvm it was just the Gi sanctuary portion of the game that runs basically flawlessly. Though I gotta say that the rest of Cosmo Canyon runs a lot better than yesterday. Not flawlessly but better.

I'm playing FF7Rebirth on Linux and somehow all the framerate issues are gone? Not that I'm complaining, now it's a 120fps fest AND I don't have to boot into Win11 to play it!

OOOOOOOHHHHH BJÖRN-CODED ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

I can understand that there are people who didn't know this. Not everyone uses Adobe products. I'm home like these, where you have to watch out what's genAI and what isn't, it's easy to make the assumption that the .ai file type has something to do with genAI, even though it doesn't.

I didn't notice that before, but it seems that this game is actually a side-story to Infinite Wealth? Seeing how it is still called Ryu ga Gotoku 8 in Japan.

Schönen Freitag 💙

Movies you've watched more than six times, gifs only

I think it might've been Ocarina of Time? N64 Collector's Edition on GameCube Wind Waker Limited Edition Bonus Disc Wii Virtual Console Wii U Virtual Console 3DS Switch NSO (technically)

AWWWWWWW YEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHH

📢 YES, it's okay to PUNCH NAZIS. #pixelart

I just got the email for this and it infuriates me. Not so much for me (I keep original source files for all my streams) but now so for others, especially speedrunning historians like Summoning Salt or Bismuth, who rely on all these runs being kept as highlights.

Tomorrow.

Castlevania lore fans, you need to read this

This is my all-time favorite demoscene production. You need to watch from the beginning, the introduction is important.

I MADE IT WORK I CAN PLAY FF7REBIRTH ON LINUX NOW!!!!!

That sucks. I liked that you got some kind of reward when you bought games for Switch. I just recently got Alan Wake on Switch for like 5 bucks thanks to gold coins. I hope they introduce a substitute at least.

That must be one of the oldest devkits. The Switch devkit we used for Skellboy was the exact same size and everything as a regular Switch. Only visual difference was that the Joy-Cons were black. There were no extra ports or whatever on it.
