Not a bad looking game, #Avowed……

Was just about to complete my half-an-hour long character creation on #Avowed when the game stopped for a ‘required update’….

Yes I have seen that screenshot of the X Poll about whether women should be banned from game dev & I don't care. I don't care if you don't like women in games. I don't care why you hold that opinion. Just don't buy games where women were involved. We're involved in more games than you think tho!

#RandomRetro #C64 Slicks! Until I picked up my C64 in the mid 90s, this was a game I’d always wanted to try, having been recommended it by a friend and indeed, it’s a pretty decent and fun top-down racer! Maybe, not the ‘best game ever’ like he said though… 😁 #retrogaming

#RandomRetro #ZXSpectrum Myth - History In The Making was a game that really showed off what the Speccy could do, with huge animated graphics! This game was great fun to play through, although there were a few moments that annoyed me trying to work out what to do next! #retrogaming #Gamersunite

I've written a song about the Zacatón Sinkhole. It's pretty deep!

Woke up half deaf in my left ear today…hoping it’s something to do with my chronic rhinitis blocking my ear tubes, but if it doesn’t clear up by the weekend I’ll need to visit the doc! Currently getting tinnitus in it as well…. 🙄🫤

Channel 4 importantly explaining to those who don’t know, how America is essentially now being run by a dangerous, fanatical armageddon cult, who not only believe apocalypse is coming, but actively want to speed the process up. And now it’s about to take a massive step forward towards that goal….

Yuck Elon, and Yuck Twitter Gold 🤮 It costs around 12K a year…. What a horrible waste of money, Instead of doing that, we are giving $1000 to a different charity each month this year. Starting with Doctors Without Borders!

Me adding more games to the backlog......

1/3 - Back in 1998, whilst studying Film & TV Production at college, I had the pleasure of helping out at Pilton Video who were making some short films… These were later shown at Edinburgh Filmhouse for a premiere where all the filmmakers could meet up with other media sorts..

So it's now The Year of the Snake, which is my Chinese birth sign....Happy New Year!

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

The movie that was Number 1 at the box office on your 10th birthday is how 2025 will turn out for you. Interesting….
