"May their dreams be infested by their greatest fears (or unresolved issues that have festered for at least two decades!)...may they wake in a puddle of their own making" 🤔
I don't mean it, I just wanted to join in 🤦🏻‍♂️😇👍🏻
Leaks suck, so don't give them the attention that they so desperately crave 😎👍🏻

It's February! So here's my monthly thread of gaming / tech / culture and entertainment job opps, including freelance, full-time and mock review things 🌟

Godot 4.6.1 stress test: 10k colliding objects, all with reflections. Holding a steady 100+ fps on my trusty old 2060!

Ghosts’n Goblins – “Worse danger is ahead” In June 1986, Japanese computer game magazine LOGiN launched a spin-off magazine, initially focused on Nintendo’s Famicom but soon taking in a wider range of platforms. It kept “Fami” as part of it…

The British games scene of the 1980s was a distinct one but still highly interconnected. For instance, the time in June 1986 when the same game was #1 in sales charts in both Japan and the UK, if in rather different versions. New post on Ghosts'n Goblins:

I was on Twitter for the writers and the book recommendations, the essays, the poetry, the community. I am here now for the same. I’m a nerd. Please reply with a favorite recent essay or poem or story or book recommendation, and thank you.

Now I'm wondering what a "Muppets Hellraiser" might look like! 🤔😢👍🏻

Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog dressed as Queen Yarnham and Micolash respectively. Miss Piggy is large and waist up in the background. Kermit is full body in the foreground running.

My partner asked me to draw this after discussing how Kermit and Micolash are both just goofy little guys anyway here share the joy/suffering

That's so cool!
Loved the various Casio watches, as a kid, but I didn't even know this existed! 🤦🏻‍♂️😢 The last one I bought was a phone dialler 🤷🏻‍♂️
Brilliant job on the interface / dongle 😊👍🏻

My Casio WQV-1 IR sync dongle, now in a compact form factor, 1.75" square! I think I can order some parts and build a few for the store, but I worry maybe I've gone maybe a little TOO niche... uh, maybe i'll build 2.

Playing Caves of Qud and i found an item that spawns a legendary ant queen who also continuously soawns her own ant minions (also friendly) so now i am the bug god

Wanted one of these bitd (for the FFVIII integration) but they didn't sell them in the UK sadly. You had to get them via grey imports and I couldn't justify the spend 🤷🏻‍♂️

Changed to an underwater theme. Still not added the colours but picking some random objects for the surface (not all correct images at this stage).

Before the DAW, this was everything 👇

Can't do better than starting with Sarah Jane Avory's excellent Zeta Wing shooters IMO - they are beautifully made and balanced more in line with modern sensibilities, challenging and fun without being bastard hard in the way a lot of old games were.

Yep, dead happy with the C64U. 🐂👍

It's really nice having a #Commodore with modern conveniences like HDMI and the ability to contain within itself just about everything ever made for it, but which is still very much a traditional C64 in the way it feels to use. I've been really enjoying getting my 8-bit on over the weekend :D 🐂

The product of marketing companies...an easy way to sell less for more money I imagine 🤔🤷🏻‍♂️

I bet that they aren't any fun these days...😂🤦🏻‍♂️😢

Still very happy with my Transformers cover for #IDW comics

175x266 pixels, 26 colors.

I channeled some gundam/ macross into my robots. I love how badly Devastator is being manipulated in that story arc. Also still impressed that they'd take a chance at a #pixelart cover.

Isn't it basically that same format that he used on Channel 4? After all these years...🤔
I still can't forget his millennium show...but no one was there to return the serve 🧐😂🤦🏻‍♂️

Did anyone say "It's a cracker!' at his funeral? 🤔🤷🏻‍♂️

Happy NieR Automata 9th Anniversary✨

#NieR #NieRAutomata

There were so many cosmetics I don't even recall which ones I used now! 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️
Loved that series. For me though, it peaked with Arkham Asylum 😍👍🏻

Well that's done! 😮
Now back to David Suchet's Poirot (Series 1) 😎👍🏻
My grandparents used to love it bitd.
I love the period properties and the attire 😍 and the sleuthing! 😂👍🏻

Watching "Nimona" on Netflix.
I'm a few years late to this.
It's got a lot of heart 👍🏻

One of the greatest bollard walks in history.

That should have read "I bought a new case for my youngest..." Not one of those ones, sorry!

Looks cool but the angular nature makes me wonder where the hell it would go...where it might "fit in the room" 🤔
I bought one, for my youngest's first build, and it weighs a ton more than I expected it to 🤦🏻‍♂️
And I thought my old Antec is heavy...😢
