ok how long will it take now for someone to make a fork of azahar that doesnt have arbitrary blocks on filetypes and doesnt force you to decrypt all your games externally lol

Retrobit's translator denies any wrongdoing in a Spanish forum (link below). His response is a whole pile of horseshit if I've ever seen one. Cherry-picking, deflecting, blaming retrobit, bad faith arguments, a lot of focus on the fonts (who cares?) and not the egregious stuff. Just baffling!

A commission I got from @aimbot-jones.bsky.social a little while back that I have wanted to share again. Because, oof, I love this drawing of my rat gal sona

rahhh i thought my flippydrive install was fucked in some way but now im seeing someone with similar issues to me and i tried what they said made it not be broken (testing with a smaller amount of FDI images until it did break) and now its working so. Guhhh maybe i will get to use it now

I think women with nice boobs should be allowed to play any video game they want, no questions asked. Its the LAW.

not to be a cranky old woman at the age of 31 but i just saw some people who weren't alive when cave story came out trying to argue that it wasn't actually all that influential and i'm taking psychic damage

lol sigh.. the current biggest ryujinx fork is probably gonna get dmca'd soon, it's not like there was very much major occurring in terms of development but still sucks in ways the only benefit i suppose is i'll not have to see the primary maintainers being cunts for no reason constantly

A piece of concept art in the Art of Super Mario Odyssey book is overlaid with the text "Note: Relief is temporary." While it actually refers to the fact that the design of the relief carving is not finished, it inadvertently appears to make an existential statement instead.

we need to get real with ourselves balatro is not "small" You as an individual know about it because it blew up. majority of modern indie games people know about simply just do not have "integrity" to lose in the way this discourse is framing it and its driving me crazy

cause the "dont fuck with gamers" gamergate rhetoric is back I want to say it again: dont secede games to these guys. games are yours too. even the words "gamer" and "gaming" are yours too.

Baked vertex lighting, baked ambient occlusion, and projection shadows are everything

I like it when video games look like this

commission done for @sabeanthedemon.bsky.social of their OC, Jinx!

so this kinda blew up, huh? he's since nuked his entire twitter account, so here's some more shit Udon Entertainment Director of Publishing Matt Moylan has said, so that he can't just pretend he didn't. he's been like this out in the open for years

i am thinking more lately about drafting a sort of 'manifesto' for a progressive-focused games preservation community, laying out the culture goals and moderation aims and such. but i worry i'm gonna get too into the idea when i still know i am not in a position to kickstart that solo

I've finally put together some thoughts on archiving games history, the satisfaction of scanning, and what the future holds. I'd love it if you took a look 💛 thestacks.ca/posts/2025-0...

They couldn't make Wayne's World today because we've already found the Sonic prototype with saturn in the background of Marble Zone, so it wouldn't be able to help us learn more about Sonic 1's development. 😔

ue4/ue5 config optimization mods are so funny because theyre usually made by people who dont actually know what the options do so they just toss 100 generic engine variables in thatve been passed down through at least 10 games and 80% of them will do Nothing for majority of the games

It's their first day on the job.

If you have ever wondered why our safety net is so inadequate and so full of cruelties and indignities, it is because of anti-Black racism.

i had no clue we learned the name of the SNES Mouse "Sleep" game from the 2020 leaks?? the fact it was just in a flyer included with JP Mario Paint and went unquestioned for all that time is crazy

The opening to FFTA where everybody reality shifts to different Ivalice races and just continues their day just lives rent free in my head.
