Using "Remake" for what's just a first part felt kinda deceptive, too. Lot of weird decisions made there.

Every single artist that posts on BlueSky should have this saved to their computer because so many of you are posting character torsos all day.

The SDF-3, as seen in the sadly cancelled Robotech: Crystal Dreams for N64. This would have been right up my alley; an ambitious Wing Commander-esque (with a little Privateer) Robotech space combat game.

First announced in 1995, it would go through three years of development before cancellation.

Great news: they narrowed it down to Momo not being terminal! It's likely an acute injury, but we're waiting on test results. The bad news is that he needs to stay 48 more hours, and that'll cost a lot. Anything helps donation-wise or by sharing. Thank you for all your help so far, I appreciate it.

while KOSA passed the subcommittee, there is still the full committee meeting it needs to go through before being voted on by the Senate/House

support is more split on it than you'd think, we just need to pull away enough votes to block it. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES!

Absolutely fantastic stuff @gamesack.net and @mylifeingaming.bsky.social. As someone who read EGM *religiously* and then was lucky enough to get a job there in 1994, I appreciated seeing this inside look into the early days of the magazine and its history. www.youtube.com/watch?v=E010...

We aim to build community in many ways, including by supporting independent bookshops with every purchase you makeβ€”versus tearing communities apart.

I switched to this and @bookshop.org for every book, ebook, and audiobook purchase where they have what I want - which is 99% of them -- and the apps are great, and I get to support a local bookstore. It's all win here, folks.

I can’t overstate how this was the most hype shit in the universe. Phantom Menace’s campaigns intertwined with the early internet, but most people still needed to buy a ticket to a movie they didn’t care about to see the preview trailer for Phantom Menace. Downloading a trailer in β€˜98 was a BIG ask.

Many freelancers in the United States rely on ACA marketplace plans for their health insurance. In an industry that has already been working overtime to turn gamedevs into gig workers, freelance and contract devs are about to get even more squeezed. This is unacceptable.
