Sparky's World

Happiest of birthdays to @naotoohshima.bsky.social, character designer extraordinaire and my creative hero since childhood. You always inspire me to become a better artist, and I'll always be thankful for the happiness your works have brought me. Thank you so much!! 💜❤️

Lmao I would’ve collapsed in a pile of sheer laughter if I opened a brand new SEALED game and saw FIFA 18 good lord

Who could forget that age-old Sonic catchphrase 😂

You changed the game sir, these 3 ports rocked my world 😭

Ah man, end of an era!

Turning on an old TV was like cracking open a soda can, you had to let it calm down before you can enjoy

Modern TVs completely lost me the moment you didn't have to turn them on by pressing a big fat button that made it go BWOOOOOMMMM-fffffjjjjjjjiiiiiiiiiiiiii-zzzttthhhh

PS3’s XMB remains totally undefeated 🔥🔥🔥

I'll never understand why anyone would want to remove the part of art that makes it magical. Making something from nothing is the best legal high you'll experience. When you sit and just get lost in your work for hours and hit that perfect flow. It's like drinking real good wine. I love creating 😭

It's The Muppet Show with our very special guest star Segata Sanshiro!

In silent memory 💜

Feast your ears on this! The first look at our Sonic CD Project's Soundtrack: and that's right, both a Japanese AND an American theme are here!

Shoutouts to @snowballchiptune.bsky.social, @banzaidoesthings.bsky.social and new member @mattm4nia.bsky.social for putting together the JP Track

I believe CD was originally targeting early 1993 but got delayed many times cos the game was still a total mess and required a ton of debugging for the various time zones. It had the longest dev-cycle of all the classic games, including Sonic 3&K!

My greatest creation.

You can tell how much better Sonic is doing these days by the sheer number of games I’ve been willing to buy this gen compared to the previous lol. If the next mainline title is genuinely heat I’d be willing to call this a full-on renaissance.

Trivia: In my logo, only the “i” is lowercase. It represents a tiny “love” (pronounced [aɪ] in Japanese) just starting to bloom between Elliot and Claris — a small love story. 私が作ったこのロゴ、「i」だけが小文字ですね？ これは、芽生え始めた「小さな"愛"」を意味しているのです。

Wake up babe, new NiGHTS lore just dropped.

It’s no problem at all buddy. Try and have a good holiday 💜

Sorry for your loss buddy 💜

Remember the days when people would unironically say the Genesis has awful sound hardware lmao.

I think I’m too Sonic-pilled for my own good lmao

Happiness is being in America at the exact right time, $30 Zelda is a precious memory I’ll cherish forever 🔥🔥🔥

Sonic CD has a platform that appears once in 1 hidden path in 1 time zone of 1 level

it drops from the top, respawns infinitely, & goes up when you stand on it. I only came across it on my 30th playthru, because you'll never see it normally. It even has a slightly different look in the Good Future

It’s all good, just glad you’re doing fine. Lemme know if there’s any issues 👍

For sure. Sonic music has been aiming to be cutting-edge from literally day one so it feels really off for throwback soundtracks to almost define themselves by limitations lol.

Sonic Gems Collection is sincerely one of my all-time favourite Sonic soundtracks. THIS is a 90s nostalgic throwback done exactly right for this series; a perfect next step from the soundscapes of CD, 3D Blast, Sonic R and the OVA. Hataya never misses 👌

In that case, if you’re curious about the exchange he had with Tee Lopes that somehow justifies months of repeated hostile contact, you can find it in the comments here. Surprisingly this took literal moments to find. Good luck and stay safe: youtu.be/IZrvsWOynQQ?...

I-is that real? 🤯

Happy happy birthday 🍰
