“Semi-Toasty Cheez-Its” didn’t poll well in the focus group, though

yeah that’s the time changing. any object in motion snaps forward an hour along its trajectory in an instant, which usually puts it far from where it was, and frequently it then hits something random. probably a car whose driver forgot to pull over. it’s quite normal

Awesome news! @ozidual.bsky.social edited the full run of the 1987 Famimaga (Nintendo's Family Computer Magazine) magazines that I scanned a while back which means they're so much easier to flip through and read now! Check them out: archive.org/details/@ozi...

I take the point, and I've obviously not been in a remotely comparable situation, but one doesn't necessarily preclude the other.

in my whole life I will never do anything as brave as this.

At some point I crossed 20k followers here on Bluesky, which is amazing, but are you sure you all don’t want to also follow me on YouTube? Still trying to hit 10k followers on there.

the cookie's bustle bad times were bad but now that we seem to be past them it's kind of awesome what theyve wrought. more people than ever know about the game, the official soundtrack was tracked down and ripped, there's a fully playable english translation. never been a better time to bustle

It is extremely funny that Luckey probably paid millions of dollars for a team of stylists to give him a cool guy makeover and the most they could do for him is "guy who lives in a bowling alley and is not allowed to go near schools"

EVE Online

A third of the way through the Anachronox demo, the player encounters a hulking alien merchant. “My sorrow runs deep,” the merchant, whose name is Demonstrare, says. “I will only exist for the short duration of this demo. I do not exist in the full version. “Write the company. Tell them that you want me in the full version.” What Demonstrare, even with his curse of self-awareness, did not anticipate was that if anyone did ask Ion Storm to bring him over to “the full version,” it wouldn’t have mattered. The demo shipped on a disc stuck to the cover of a PC Gamer — where it shared space with now-forgotten

titles like Throne of Darkness and The Corporate Machine — four months after Anachronox itself had been released, and three months after Ion Storm’s parent company had shut down the studio. Demonstrare never made it to Anachronox. And while twenty-five years later the game can run on modern hardware, the demo does not. Demonstrare is gone. Recently, I asked Richard Gaubert, the writer of Anachronox, if the developers ever heard anything about Demonstrare. Gaubert didn’t even remember the character.

When I dumped the Unreleased Japanese version of Burnout 1 PS2, unaware it never came out in Japan, I left it in my “non-priority” prototype pile for nearly a year

When I finally revisited it, I realized it was a important build👇
