1. I think you're a cool human being.
2. Nothing about this aspect of your life will change that opinion.
You do you, man. You're awesome.

@thabeast721.bsky.social your recent playthrough of Shadowgate 64 was the encouragement I needed to finally drag this randomizer across the finish line. 🙂

We're headed to @magfest.org this week for the #IndieRetro #Homebrew Showcase, and we're bringing these shiny new demo carts of The Halls of Talamh Domhain! If you're in the National Harbor area, be sure to stop by, say hello, and give the game a try. Hope to see you there!

Look at this interview, not long after the game was over. Tyler Loop showed up and took full responsibility for the miss. I can't imagine how much he was hurting in these moments, but he stood there and spoke with all the people readying the headlines against him.

Look, I get it. Sports bring out passion. We lose sight of the fact that these are human beings, with exceptional talent, that show up and compete to entertain us.
If you think there's any excuse for terrorizing a 24 year old young man for missing a kick in a game, you're a lost cause. Full stop.
Admittedly we haven't made it obvious in the previews (we've only shown the marketplace during in-person demos thus far), that's the exact structure we're using for our next NES game. 😁

Thanks to everyone who came out to spend a bit of their #SacGamersExpo with us! We hope the Enhancement Chips talk was informative and entertaining. 😁
In case you couldn't make it, or just want to reference anything again, we've added the slides to the sample project: github.com/grendell/mmc...
We're easy to find all weekend at #SacGamersExpo! Come by and check out our games, including a new build of The Halls of Talamh Domhain. Hope to see everyone at the show!

As a huge fan of all things Planet of the Apes, I've been meaning to check out Saru no Gundan for some time now. Tonight we embarked on that journey, and I can already safely say that it is exactly what I wanted from a 70's Tokyo Broadcasting System take on the idea.

Our panel for #SacGamersExpo, "Enhancement Chips: How Nintendo Cartridges Leveled Up" is currently up to 50 images, 12 videos, and 8 slides of assembly code. I think it's safe to say we're not holding back on this one! 😁

Thanks to everyone who came out to spend a bit of their @fanexposf.bsky.social with us! "NES 101" had an amazing turn-out, and we are so appreciative for all the interest and great discussions! 🥳
The updated slides have also been added to the sample project: github.com/grendell/gam...
My money is on "summon the exasperated human herder with a megaphone." Useful in all sorts of situations, really.
