Hey @timeextension.com Thank you for covering #SpacePizza today on your site. We are excited as the game is getting closer to release. @garypinkett.bsky.social has been working on the level design. Hoping that @h0ffman.bsky.social will be able to work his musical magic for the game soon.

Space Pizza, An Intergalactic Tale Of Planets And Pepperoni, Is Preparing To Blast Off On ZX Spectrum Next

Had this watch for about a month now and it's been one of the better purchases I've made lately. Got tired of my old Pixel 2 running out of battery before the end of day. This one lasts over 10 days per charge. Does what I need (notifications, weather,etc) and nothing I don't. Garmin Instinct E.

I usually don't pimp non-gaming stuff too often but should've moved on this a lot sooner. Not charging a watch for two weeks is great. I also got the E edition as it was cheaper and the others had extra features I did not need. It also came in 40mm instead of 45 and 50. I have dainty wrists. 😂

I only know of two of these, and only 1 worker - this one. Awesome stuff!

For the first time in 7 years, I have booted the CPT Phoenix Jr. A couple hours of experimentation and investigation with a Greaseweazle last night finally allowed me to recover the only known copy of its software! #VintageComputing #RetroComputing

Update: not really a rogue-like because the plan is to save character progression, but it will be all procedurally generated dungeons/caves. Collect the crystal ore for crafting weapons, spells etc between levels. Find the enemy with the key to unlock the exit. #c64 #commodore64 #8bit #pixelart

My dad used to sing a song with some lyrics that said... "I married a girl who's twice the size of me. Hairs down her back like the branches on a tree". Does anyone recognise it or is it probably just something he made up or heard down the pub in the 70s?

#C64 day - Game 6 - Space Taxi What a cute game! It's like Oids meets Crazy Taxi as you thrust your way around the screen ferrying passengers between the different landing pads. Super precise and landing just right feels very satisfying.

Madballs makes an appearance on Miami Vice during season 3. Not only do we get to see them play with a Screamin' Meemie Ball Darts set, but Crockett is holding an Oculus Orbus through the whole scene.

Love the Penultimate 2 cartridge for my Vic-20. Load games, expand the RAM, & run a dead test. Amazing! #commodore #vic20 #retrocomputing

Your evening reminder that Episode 52 of the Rubbish Heap is now available for all to view. Have you played Ninja Cop/Nija Five-O before? What did you think? Definite shades of Elevator Action Returns to this one! Enjoy!

Saki Endo's Rubbish Heap@rubbishheap.bsky.social

*mumbles something about a new review now being on YouTube* Enjoy! It's Ninja Cop or Ninja Five-O as it was in North America. But why on earth did this Japanese developed (by Hudson Soft) game never get released by Konami (a Japanese company) in Japan?!? #retrogaming
