It's North America's time for 30 years of #DonkeyKongCountry This was the only box I did solo... Holding the bananas like that, Donkey doesn't realize the rest of the bunch will snap off leaving him holding 1 banana. Amateur.

Just seen a Facebook reminder that apparently #BanjoTooie came out 24 years ago. Here the picture from that original FB post. Story boards, test box art and to do lists! #gamedev #gameart

30 years since we unleashed DKC on the world! Here's some art from the 25th anniversary - how quick has that 5 years gone?

More unseen bits from the history of #yookalaylee. Unused concept art from the #impossiblelair. Originally we toyed with the idea of 2d versions of the original levels. I was keen to explore more of Galleon Galaxy’s junk aesthetic by having a rusty junk planet. Maybe in future ;)

So is everyone just posting the same thing on Twitter and Bluesky? Or have some of you left Twitter for good?

I'll tell you what she is saying Mr M "Give WinkySteve an all-expenses paid family holiday to DKC land"

I've not worked on a DK game since 1995. Even so, seeing these characters here warms the cockles

I'm hyped about @playtonic.bsky.social's announcement of Yooka-Replaylee coming to consoles~! I wanted to re-share my fan art I did for the release of Yooka-Laylee, I can't believe it's been 7 years since I drew them~! 💚💜 (Apr 2017) @winkysteve.bsky.social #YookaLaylee #YookaReplaylee #PurtoDraws
