Bare Metal // Bryan

I like how this is also kind of just Aggretsuko

It can be hard to make friends after you get memory-wiped and shoved inside a death mech. You should still try, though.

So, from what I've learned

Cons of living in the DG universe:
> occasional organ robbery
> no flavor in the food :(
> you may be exploded depending on net worth

Pros:
> 20 movies exist
> survivable amounts of oxygen (usually)
> you might see photos of other people’s pets from the before-times

All you really need to survive the post-apocalypse is unlimited airhorns, some cool stickers, and a hype man.

JUST biscuits? No butter or jam or gravy or nothing?

Happy New Year, folks. I spent a good chunk of December trying to wrap my head around this mech-themed dungeon crawler series by @yomigael.bsky.social.

It was very hard. And very fun. And I think you can tell the exact moment I lost my mind while playing through it. 🐁

I finally got to watch this! Yeah it's super on brand for WKW. Just an hour and a half of the world's most heart-wrenching and uncomfortable situations with perfect cuts and beautiful lighting. Everything he makes feels like a fever dream

I also watched My Blueberry Nights and... did not enjoy that

Just keep going bro

#pixelart

Yeah, it is Flash. It was a 2010s spin-off from his appearances in the Guardians comics. I don't remember seeing Howard in what I read of it. That said, I still need to get the physical copies and finish it!

I have never even seen Darkhawk before but I feel like I can relate as the world's last Venom: Space Knight enthusiast

Thank you for the shout out! I'm glad you like the videos!

I'm back from under my rock again, with more stuff to share.

Shout out to @warkus.bsky.social, @katanalevy.bsky.social, and @jrhudepohl.bsky.social for making some of the best games I've played this month.

Returning to this to say thank you! It was wild ride, glad you enjoyed

Finally revisiting this — did you see this new trailer???

(Realizing this may have come off as facetious — The answer is yes, keep making what you can, and someone, somewhere, will find it and be grateful for you.)

Yeah, probably. Only one way to find out though, you know?

You know it's a rough time when the real voice comes out.

Shoutout to the Wendys and the Frankies.

I know who watches what I make. Buncha benchmaxxing DS2-playing matcha drinkers

There's lore?! Well now I need more information

Oh my god, this looks atrocious. I'm totally getting it

#gamingsky and friends will probably have some equally masochistic suggestions, so suggest away

This nightmare is almost certainly my gateway into Metroid-style collect-thing-shoot-thing platformers

YouTube video by Bare Metal Bryan The Many Unrealities of The Eternal Castle

“Man, I haven’t heard from Bryan in a while. Is he dead? I hope he's not stuck in The Etern-“


I’VE BEEN STUCK IN THE ETERNAL CASTLE

150 hours in an early-onset dementia simulator that runs on hope, high blood pressure, and retinal tissue. STUCK IN THERE. Thriving and winning and screaming HELP

Hell yeah, brother

Taking a break from my current hyperfixation to say that the OD and Death Stranding: Mosquito trailers look weird and cool

...and with this I recede, back into my pile of post-it notes and gameplay footage

Hey! Glad to hear it! Thank you for watching!

As Tears Go By is probably my favorite one by him that I've seen. It might be a bit of a smoother watch: A forbidden love story, gangster fights, lots of neon-tinted street shots. This and a pint of ice cream on a rainy night is probably THE peak cinematic experience

Ooh, nice. Wong Kar-Wai is my go-to name for grimy street cinema vibes. Don't think I've seen this one though.
