This era of gaming and aesthetic does things to me.

i think the megadrive is the funniest case of this to me cause they really made the system with the intention of "we gotta rival the famicom and pc engine!" to quickly changing that purpose to "we gotta rival the super famicom!" within the span of like... three years

hey howdy everybody! I've got a new @hg101.bsky.social article up on the site today, looking at the spiritual successor to those cool Marble Blast games from the early 00s, Marble It Up! If you like momentum-based marble rolling with good tunes, here you go! www.hardcoregaming101.net/marble-it-up/

Be careful playing this because sometimes the dialogue will randomly become super loud and jumpscare the hell out of you.

That's probably not even the worst technical issue with this thing!

In a piece of four-color pixel art with a high-contrast palette, a protogen, a species of cyborg alien, soars through the air with their arm and knee forward and their other arm reared back, preparing to stab something with their sharp claws. The protogen, drawn in flat colors, has the appearance of a furred reptile with a face consisting of a shaped electronic display that shows a simple, smiling and determined facial expression. Their hair is a long stalk that is blown back by their movement, they appear to be wearing angular chest armor with pauldrons bearing ring patterns, their digitigrade legs are metallic with bulbs on the sides and furred forelegs, and their tail has fur missing in patches revealing its metal shell. They are outlined against an abstract background of an aura drawn with many long lines, implying the protogen is descending at high speed toward their target.

A protogen warrior rendered in glorious CGA cyan-magenta! Why? Because I wanted to, that's why! [1/2]

Rascal, a guy in a blue T-shirt with an hourglass symbol on it (actually two 7's flipped around and smooshed together), a reversed ball-cap (made out of a beanie hat and a turtle shell).

Box art for Rascal (1998, Traveler's Tales, PlayStation). A cartoony kid with green wrap-around shades, a backwards baseball cap, and a symbol of a green hourglass on his blue T-shirt fires a zappy-gun at something off screen.

For some reason, I made Rascal from the 1998 Traveler's Tales game, Rascal, in Soulcalibur VI.

I want to point out that this is them trying to REBOOT this franchise.

They looked at this and said "Yeah, this is a definite improvement, a fresh start"

the terrifying cover to the video game "Skunny" which I think might be the 7th Skunny game somehow

all the ironic fake 90s platformer mascots like Volvy or Gwimbly seem much more realistic than "Skunny Hardnut" who released like 6 games in one year including a kart racer and a game where he has to kill sadaam hussein

some part of it gotta be performative but some part of its gotta tangibly be too much exposure to the 'its so easy just build a raspberry pi' type

The version we used comes with the ExoDOS collection, but keep in mind that to grab that, you'll either have to space a lot of hard drive space or grab the entire frontend just for that one game.

In a piece of crisp cartoon pixel art with vibrant colors, a broad-shouldered, buxom green fishperson meets eyes and touches noses with an athletic yellow opossum man while they hold each other's hands and shoulders. Not only that, the opossum has wrapped the tip of his prehensile tail around the fish's. Where their lines of sight meet, there's a burst of heart symbols and a linear energy explosion; and a field of flame burns in the background in Valentine's Day colors. The red-eyed fish is wearing red glasses and earrings; a choker with a red medal; a red v-neck t-shirt with a wide cleavage window and open in the back to let their back fin through; fishnet gloves; and a high-waisted, pleated black skirt lifted in the back by their tail, pressing against their legs. The blue-eyed opossum is wearing a blue necklace with a silver medal, long blue athletic shorts with white trimming and strings, and blue compression sleeves and leggings with white trimming, leaving his muscular chest on display.

In a shocking moment of shameless self-indulgence for Valentine's Day, I drew myself on a date with #Sparkster. x3 Rendered in crisp #DOS #VGA color!

There's one of these based on Mortal Kombat which is also pretty hilarious. If Scorpion gets too stinky you gotta make him go to take a shower

look, please don't tell me to try other games, okay? the neopets ttrpg is what we're all familiar with. we use a homebrew setting instead of neopia and we ignore some of the rules about grappling and using rations during long-distance travel, but other than that it's exactly what we want.

I remember playing this when I was real young and the clown's rapidly fading cries for help as he floats away, never to be seen again were certainly... memorable.

"Your boos mean nothing, I've seen what makes you cheer" is an great quote and it's a shame that it came from Rick and Morty.

A tweet from Kynan Pearson (@KynanPearson), a game designer for various games, including Vexx. 

The tweet reads: "So this is a real thing! Found a Vexx E3 swag condom from back when I was at Acclaim. Stay Classy! #Vexx #Acclaim"

Pictured is a condom with a sticker of (presumably) the protagonist of Vexx, with the message "VEXX BEFORE YOU SEXX." An Acclaim Studios Austin logo is right under it.

Thanks to a friend I was reminded of the promotional condoms Acclaim made to promote Vexx

The way this Apple II rooftop cityscape draws itself in and then sweeps across the screen is very pleasing to the eye.

The traffic and skyscraper lights twinkling away very much build some lovely atmosphere and look lovely in their own right.

They're running you on Moon Cresta hardware. Dawg, they're imperfectly cracking your protection measures. Bro they're labelling you as "not working" in MAME right now. They're crediting you to "All_In" on the title screen. They got you running on the Modular System.

Trying to figure out how mean I should be to old Amiga platformers for a project I'm working on. Looking back at the audience like Dril and the Racism dial

(Some of them are honestly cool, I swear, but somehow most of those don't qualify for the project. Play Misadventures of Flink, though)
