My wife (who is Japanese) and I are showing our daughter how manga is traditionally done. So I inked this character (from reference obv) from one of her favourite anime, and my wife is screen toning it the old fashioned way.

I've become a bit obsessed with shmups🚀 I used to play a bit decades ago, but now the love of this genre has been reignited🔥 In an industry where content & length = "value", it's refreshing to enjoy this kind of purist gameplay where only your ability decides how long you get to play.

Hello Köln and hello #gamescom! Nice sunset over the airport to welcome me. Also, German graphic designers are going for the maximalist information overload approach to information dissemination and I’m all for it 😃

Wow... Microsoft Flight Simulator's latest update certain seems to have added some bold new features. 🫢

Our beloved @fishtopherx.bsky.social decided to actually make the game idea that @ramiismail.com came up with on stage at @developconference.com 2026. The result is peak excellence in video game artistry. GOTY!

YES awesome. Playing around with Google Translate’s AI powered live translate of conversation. Tried “すみません、銀行はどこですか?” (Excuse me, where is the bank?) and got this corker. Must be my heavy Kansai accent 🤣

Interface art I did several years ago as a hobby project. Done in Adobe Illustrator because I'm weird like that. #art #digitalart

I was actually at the very first BitSummit back in 2013! Elbow to elbow in a small hall… a far cry from the massive thing it is today!

Our own @fishtopherx.bsky.social is storming #bitsummit in Kyoto today! At some point BitSummit GOT BIG

Here's me rambling on for 8 minutes about Moon Mode and the game industry! Gonna start uploading this kind of thing regularly, which is painful because I suck at it, but it's all for a good cause! 😅

Moon Mode@moonmode.com

An update from us, and also the first in a series of regular vloggish-kinda updates from us! Like, comment, subscribe, and all the rest of that jazz. #gamedev #indiedev www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8fM...

New Ghost in the Shell anime coming! LOVE the faithful rendition of Shirow's art style 😍 but dunno about the music direction. Subverting expectations is fine and often powerful, but when it's taken this far I think it risks feeling disconnected with the originals. 🤔 www.youtube.com/watch?v=yedJ...

The Snoopy screensaver on Apple TV is quite possibly the best thing Apple has ever made. I wish they’d bring it to MacOS.

It's done! What an amazing experience it was to work on this project. Absolutely oozes personality in all the ways you'd want from a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game. Full trailer and links below!

OK I'll play. Here's #my9games. Definitely showing my age. Quite a few #amiga500 games here, as well as a clear bias towards science fiction 😎

I’ve been in Sweden for almost a decade now and have some understanding of Swedish, but this never gets old.

Some prime snowman chops on show right here. Forgot the banana for scale, so you’ll need to take my word for it that this guy is huge.

The Swedish don’t mess around with their beers, do they. Here’s an IPA that’ll get you there… fast.
