The amount of time I'm spending in Tomb Raider Remastered flicking to the retro visuals to see shit in dark corners, I may as well be playing the original.

Beautiful startup sequence. Absolutely amazing.

*taps the sign*

Ah, Toree. How I love thee, and how much I'm going to use you as a blueprint for a 3D NekoNecro or Quickly, Quackley! if I ever did one...

Last repost: I've felt for a while that LLM image generation was somehow a right-wing thing. It *felt* right-wing and I couldn't put my finger on it til recently. It only exists to remove artists (dangerous lefties, mostly) as an employable class in society. Yeah, it's right-wing.

I block people without comment if they represent themselves as progressive, but I see that their timeline is filled with Gen AI imagery, which consumes resources and destroys the livelihood of creative people Keep that fascist boomer slop away from me, please

As a student I've been a busy with final exams. Still doing some stuff kind of slowly... #indiedev #bullethell #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Okay. The new guy is starting to really grow on me.

Guys, guys. Guys. GUYS. It's not "SFW", it's ".swf".

Last repost: I actually love the quirks in the art of people who've just started drawing, or who claim they can 'barely' draw. Sometimes I see unusual but awesome things in beginner art that I quietly add to my own visual repertoire; genuinely, it can inspire me so much.

Art by absolute beginners is so cool. How it's made with total raw feeling and raw observation. Idk!!! Sometimes I get afraid of learning new things because people say they like the messy human edge my art has, and I know what they mean because that's the shit I love too😭

Oh hey *another* platform to remove all my work from.

It really is this simple. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

A little warning for artists, if you have very very very low commission prices; you’ll likely will run into frequent nightmare clients, clients that’ll try to lowball your art/prices and can end up having too much work to do if you do unlimited slots

I can't believe we got a new Pope and no new Ristar. For shame.

What was it with BUILD-engine shooters and everything doing a fuckshitpiss-ton of damage?

When Marx said you have nothing to lose but your chains, he meant it's fucked up that you have to be at work instead of playing Virtua Fighter

Good morning, Bluesky.

It's fine, I almost-totally gave up drawing anyway.

The big movie business doesn't want the people to know how much Christopher Nolan looks like Harry Enfield.

It's interesting that the SEGA Guys OR2SP video likened the scoring to NiGHTS: Into Dreams because that very game was my own personal awakening into what videogames COULD be. My eyes opened to the potential depth they could have in terms of score systems and where in the future they could go with it

I've tried to tell people how good a scoring system Out Run 2 SP/2006 has, but this video absolutely nails it in a way I can't: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-Ur...

Gamers be all "this game should be rereleased for game preservation's sake!" but then be all "but it should have 4k 120fps save anywhere rewind upscaled textures modern controls" and so forth.

It's so strange how this is maybe the single greatest time ever to be a weird nerd gamer who likes romhacks, mods, indie games, foreign games, etc And every other part of the gaming industry is Horrifically Awful.

After years of hard work, our retro-inspired shooter Earthion finally has its own home online. Dive into the world, watch the new trailer, and hear a track made entirely with the Megadrive’s YM2612 sound chip. Now viewable in English and Portuguese: earthiongame.com

I don't write game reviews professionally, so if you encounter errors or glaring mistakes or whatever it's just like, OKAY THEN CHEERS. <carries on regardless>

So I hear it's some sci-fi series' celebratory day today? Anyways, on an unrelated note I recently beat Alien Trilogy for Saturn and; as I tend to do these days; typed words according to what my brainmeats made of it all. www.tumblr.com/jayextee/782...

Another game I beat and have some thoughts about. Here's an indie cat game with monochrome art, through the eyes of the creator of another indie cat game with monochrome art: www.tumblr.com/jayextee/782...

My personal favourite pinball game ever. What a game. <3

Bit of a pixel art night tonight. Almost forgot I could do that.

Gee, this mashup art looks stylistically authentic at first glance until you realise that there's some weird feathering at random points on otherwise smooth lines and some of the smaller details are kinda blurred compared to the rest. Curses to LLM image generation. It's a fucking blight.

But anyway, shmups. <3
