A microphone (Rร˜DE NT-USB+) and mic arm (Rร˜DE PSA1+) clamped onto a desk.

Spent some time rewiring my setup today for the monitor arms I got recently, longer DP & HDMI cables so I can actually use the cable routing on the arms, ordered in some power cord extensions to do the same.

Also, picked up a mic arm- feels way nicer to use than I thought it would :D

Red Eclipse, Anger Foot & Gloomwood!

Iโ€™d also say B.C. Piezophile and Out of Action but neither are released yet.

Yeah I saw this style around like ~2014. Kinda loved those things though, a few teachers let us calibrate them if we were tall/good at it, random QTE style.

Did once come back after holidays to find a classroom window broken- took us a few minutes to realise that smart board was entirely gone lmao.

Oh thatโ€™d be fantastic, would love to see someone in a position to verify devs as the system rolls out :)

Potential art-book/project thread! Please read below!! ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

Can i first ask that you please retweet and comment your thoughts on this? I need as many eyes on this as possible to gauge if its a viable side project worth pursuing!

Iโ€™ve been absolutely loving all the retrofuture & traditional sketch posts from you and as someone whoโ€™s recently started getting into hardcover Artbooks (currently have a few from Games/Manga and my eyes on Tankheadโ€™s 2nd run and AFTRMRKT Special Edition) Iโ€™d totally be into this :)

Pretty sure Bsky has a โ€˜Whatโ€™s Hot Classicโ€™ feed that might hit that general popularity note, normally I just look at โ€˜Popular with Friendsโ€™ though itโ€™s not too different to the Following/Discover feeds for me.

Love good ol 3D Pipes, you can still download it and I still use it today. Was the first thing I did when I last changed around my PC!

Gonna try grow it over time as I come across more stuff with the same vibes :)

Oh 73 Yards was fantastic- so glad they started doing some of those again. If youโ€™re interested in some more of the horror type eps check out โ€œBlinkโ€, โ€œListenโ€, โ€œHeaven Sentโ€, and (my personal favourite-) the two part โ€œSilence in the Libraryโ€ & โ€œForest of the Deadโ€

Just came out of a 48hr game jam over the weekend for GGJ 2025!

Had a blast with the team I was in making PorcuRoll! for the theme โ€˜Bubbleโ€™.

Hell I just miss when games came with an instruction manual that wasnโ€™t only three pages of plain text, a picture of your consoleโ€™s controller and a legal disclaimer about epilepsy.

Wow I remember seeing the post asking for this only yesterday. Count me scared at the speed you get stuff done.

Also I hope this doesnโ€™t come with an equally scaled up drum mag thatโ€™d be terrifying.

Iโ€™ll have to hop on this for games!
For me, in no particular order;

- Quantum Break: Petri Alanko

- Ocarina of Time: Koji Kondo

- Gran Turismo 3: Masahiro Andoh, Daiki Kasho & Isamu Ohira

(And interestingly with GT3 Iโ€™m more talking about the music of the menu screens than the in-game music.)

me trying solo dev as a designer

(took far too long to sink in that solo dev meant actually wearing all the art/code/music hats at once instead of the little bits here and there I was used to already)
