Peter Thiel looks like a failed prototype of the Euruska Field Commander from The Forever Winter. Should have kept that one on the discarded flesh pile, imho.

Peter Thiel looks like if Dewey from Malcom in the Middle drank from the wrong grail from Last Crusade.

"Hmm, I should get one of these Playdate game consoles" *sees price and gets flung out of my armchair like a muppet* I guess it's not _that_ much money but at the same time it's definitely more money than I've got :X

i am of the opinion that there should be way more shiren the wanderer on twitch

I must heed the call to action! I shall take up the Shiren mantle again! I may not be good at Shiren but I've got a fool's gumption, and that's all one really needs in order to become a wanderer.

Tried to play Ikaruga on stream and thereupon made a suitable fool of myself. Why do I keep trying to take on these Treasure shmups with my feeble skills? I haven't even beaten Trouble Shooter yet and that's a way easier shmup than Ikaruga. I just can't think that fast in a shmup.

they have made old bay seasoned goldfish crackers. which go off

What's that you say? A week of unmitigated terror? Sure! Why not?

Shocking~!

Cats are chiral

I'm watching @pixelturkey.com play Flight of the Amazon Queen and got to thinking about decoder rings due to some dialogue in the game. I never got one in a box of cracker jacks but it got me thinking so I looked 'em up on Amazon and they exist on there. Some interesting little tchotchkes to behold.

Worked on Thunder Helix map screen today for the next update, adding an input help bar. Feels more like a real game now. #gamedev #pixelart #solodev

The "Controller Icons" @godotengine.org plugin by @rsubtil.bsky.social has been INCREDIBLE. But! Due to 1 (suspected) engine bug, there was a rare crash when using the GDScript plugin with C# Projects. So I PORTED THE WHOLE THING TO C# TO FIX IT and it's free! www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoOe...

I was gonna stream this morning but then I didn't. I gotta finish up Secret of Mana (1993) (SNES) so I can crack into some of this new stuff like HighFleet (2021) (PC). I think I may also finally play through all of the Halo MCC in July or August. It's using up a ton of disk space right now.

Steam Summer Sale is underway in case you want to buy a whole bunch of games that you can then be too exhausted and brain-nuked to play. I know I have. I'm not done either. I've still got a bit less than 13 bucks in my budget. OneShot was a gift from a gamedev mutual though :3

For those not on the Hellsite, there's a new generation of bots on there now. They write posts and replies to random threads using LLMs. The people running these things truly deserve nothing but the worst that life has to offer.

Today's archive.org find: this sensational Deus Ex key art from a 2000 Eidos press kit. The pure essence of the turn of the millennium. 📀 archive.org/details/Deus...

Not fully decided on this just yet but I'm thinking about giving the Carolina Reaper a tomato spike if it doesn't start producing some new leaves soon. I should set a deadline for that referendum. Maybe end if next week to see how it fares. It's already plenty fertilized, I think.

New round of Twitch Drops for Rust is live. It'll go for roughly a week until just before the new wipe starts. There are 4 general skins and 10 streamer-specific skins, taking a total of 24 hours cumulative view time to collect them all.

The neighbor cat was outside when I went to water the plants at 05:20AM and visited with me. She headbutt my hand a lot and I gave her three tuna Greenies. She also waltzed under my wheelchair and poked around inside my apartment a bit. Why are you so nice, Cat? ;w;

Now do Pelosi and Schumer.

Wait, wha? There's a Wes Anderson movie in the theaters right now? Shit, man. I slept on that. Might need to go see that before it departs the cinemas. And from the looks of it I have all of two days to do that :X
