There's might be something wrong with the Downhill Ski course.

Odysseon Chapter 3 should now be playable from start to finish. I only have a few more finishing touches to add. I'm aiming to have it out next Friday.

Last year Daisuke Amaya (the creator of Cave Story) began drawing a really cute web comic series about a cat girl artist trying to find love. It's called Ame Choco Gamila and can be read on Daisuke’s website in JP and English. Highly recommend giving it a read!

I don't think anyone is afraid to admit that. The secret is to understand that every game is mid (even morrowind) and that's fine.

Once oblivion was built from the ground up for the xbox crowd it was already too late, it's been "OVER" over for 20 slutty years.

Getting bodied by mid tier enemies in the early game, only to show up again later and blast them with an amulet you made that shoots nukes is one of the best "Okay NOW I get it" moments the game can offer.

Like Dota, to truly enjoy this game you have to WANT IT. It's an acquired taste but once you learn the game's more dated elements and more hardcore RPG systems, it becomes a very rewarding experience. It's consistently interesting in ways more contemporary RPGs are too afraid to be.

My home town of Halifax was one of the leading pioneers of Television flash animators, My college instructors were some of the first people to use flash specifically for television at the dawn of the digital animation age. THEY DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TABLETS FOR THE FIRST YEAR THEY ANIMATED WITH THE MOUSE

If you are an animation software developer PLEASE for the love of god give me a "Flash style" timeline option.

This is still the best animation timeline setup ever devised, and it's astounding that other programs DON'T COPY IT. They often have a weirder, less intuitive timeline and layer set up. ALL I WANT IS FRAME AND KEY-FRAME, SEPARATED BY LAYER! DON'T GIVE ME A DOPE SHEET, THAT SHIT'S FOR 3D!
FUCK!!!!

Flash is still (to me) the most straight forward and easiest animation tool to use. It's the only one I ever liked using. There really is nothing else like it. This doesn't come as a surprise at all. Looks like we're all gonna have to use cracked forks from now on.

I've never played doorman before but I somehow managed to magically pull off some "White-boy schmovement" as the kids say.

The deck oled case has a lighter inner case that velcros in, you can just pull it out

Whoever made that short about the steam deck carrying case secretly being two cases in one, you got @thebase16.bsky.social freakin’ out about it.
