I'm a former '00s pro gamedev (Armored Core 2, Eternal Ring, EverGrace, RPG Maker, Sims 2, etc), current indie: whydoisay.itch.io Punk gone electronic musician: violencemars.bandcamp.com Did the anime/cult movie podcast Destroy All Podcasts for 9 years! I rip tapes and write threads! 🧵s in reply

If you've never read this, you may find it interesting: my interview with Masami Shimotsuma of NOW Productions (who worked on both Splatterhouse 2 and 3) from a couple years back. splatterhouse.kontek.net/shimotsuma-i...

Ah this is exciting! There's a whole weird era of disk-based adventures made by Nintendo that was never seen outside of Japan, it's practically a lost period of their work to a lot of us. Time Twist, written by the Legend of Zelda scenario writer, just got translated! romhack.ing/database/con...

The Hasegawa Dragonar-1 is the most Obari off versions I've ever seen.

Adult Swim promos you say?!

Did you know there was a Gunbuster spinoff novel that takes place 50 years after the anime*? Did you know there's an English translation of it that you can read for free? It's true!

Any number of Swan Boy gags (@bransonreese.bsky.social) pop into my head, but especially things like these albums and YouTube thumbnails. I specifically get the phrase “when I was only bitch years old” stuck in my head a fair amount

If anyone ever tries to get you to watch a '90s Robert Altman noir with Tim Robbins but you're just not up for it, remember it could be worse: they could be trying to get you to watch a '90s David Fincher thriller with Michael Douglas. Don't hate The Player, hate The Game

The brilliant Swan Boy comic from @bransonreese.bsky.social once again has graced me with the perfect image to reply to that one friend who also annoys me! If you haven't read Swan Boy, you've got some super fun times ahead of you: swanboy.com #webcomics #comics

absolutely AGOG at these watercolor illustrations of Lupin and co. by Yoshinatsu Mori* circa 1994 the TEXTURES alone are making me go feral

all three 'Legacy' scenes together. These had been sitting as sketches for quite some time, feels good to finally share them #metroid

A couple of years before Carol Shaw started working at Atari, Joyce Weisbecker had already designed, programmed, and sold her first piece of video game software in 1976 for the RCA Studio II games console as an independent contractor, making her the first indie dev to boot.

Legend of Xanadu is one of the big ones. Historically incredibly significant and a great game, too. One of the most beloved PC Engine games. So, you know, you might want to play this one.

I plan to upload the Digging for Isix parts as separate videos. Given the recent passing of Walter Koenig, I went ahead and started with Maximum Surge. This looks at an abandoned FMV project in which he played the villain. I got access to prototypes and BTS interviews. youtu.be/h7dJ_CFh_e0?...

They changed and added some scenes to Alto's first fight but they never did fix the random missiles Gilliam fired from nowhere.

1990s sci-fi action pics ZEIRAM and ZEIRAM 2 are getting a special screening event on 11/29 at Shin Bungeiza in Ikebukuro, #Tokyo, celebrating the original film’s 35th anniversary. Organizers are promising new merch and other surprises.

Big update to 1.8 today. A couple of major fixes. Some QOL additions to menu navigation related to Outfits, Party Formation and the Automap. Also the game's on sale? You can see the labyrinth for 25% off for the next week?

this was rough

Commanche FX was a planned port of the DOS game Comanche: Maximum Overkill to the SNES using the Super FX chip. Here it is running at Winter CES 1995. One of several 3D SNES games shown at the event that would never release. https://archive.gamehistory.org/item/c9adc7ca-554b-44ea-bac5-c0998c3e1888

I know that I am far from famous. I'm not even close to the most popular performer on Headless Blood Idol streams! That's fine. I have internal struggles about my musicianship and singing, but I have 1000% confidence in my lyrics. And it MYSTIFIES me how TERRIBLE mainstream pop lyrics often are. 🧵

As seen on @headlessbloodidol.bsky.social's last community art show, here's my new music video for my new song "Ash"! Written, performed, programmed, mixed, etc by me, my producer Noah Michaels mastered it. #industrialmusic #hyperpop #electropunk www.youtube.com/watch?v=06Wv...

(1/2) Over three years ago, an issue report was submitted to Fixel's 3DO ODE repository on GitHub due to "Oyaji Hunter Mahjong" crashing, but... even with a CD-R?! While we still don't know why pressed discs alone allegedly work fine, we have arrived at the light at the end of the tunnel 🙂

On this day in 1999, Cartoon Network aired a 24-hour Scooby-Doo marathon for Halloween. The marathon was filled with little clips between episodes parodying THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT which had been released in theaters just a few a few months earlier. Link below for the first 12hs of the marathon.

I'm filling in the edges and corners of the Universal Century page of the (increasingly misleadingly named) MS Library. This involves a lot of scrounging about for obscure vehicle artwork. Some recent additions... www.gundamunofficial.com/mslibrary/un...

You can’t even comprehend how important Eien ni Hen’s work is to the fan translation community. Romancing SaGa, Fire Emblem, Sakura Wars, Tear Ring Saga, Glory of Heracles, Dragon Force II, Dark Half, Beyond Oasis, Psi-O-Blade, Arabian Nights, and so much more. What a loss. Rest in peace.

Ebikawa did a great update on the Formation Z robot but I wonder if they avoided making the jet mode better because that just reminds you the old art was a barely disguised Legioss. figsoku.net/blog-entry-5...
