Oh yeah, that was me. Super happy to have been invited to redesign and rebuild the Tetris Effect: Connected website after the reception of the Lumines.game site.

DA'FUK!?!

This is a great time to be giving the GBC a run out, and just ahead of the upcoming For the Frog the Bell Tolls DX too…

The "Kid Icarus DX" colorization #romhack for #GBC by "pikamus" has just released Play this #GameBoy like never before, with a fresh, colorful overhaul, as well as several new QoL additions A lot of passion has clearly been put into this github.com/pikamus/KidI... #retrogaming #romhacking #gaming

"Sutte Hakkun GB" was a #lostmedia game for #GameBoy & #GBC It was discovered from the #Nintendo Gigaleak and appeared to be fully complete but never released. It was all in Japanese, but @vervalkon.bsky.social has gone through the trouble of making an English translation #romhack #retrogaming

Me, every time my partner goes to the shops.

The new SteamVR update – allowing USB-C connections as well as WiFi to the headset– makes @stinkyox.bsky.social's Polybius playable on a Quest 3S, without all the dropouts and video compression. Jeff, please tell me an updated Polybius or sequel is on the way for the Frame!

Akinori Nishiyama / 西山彰則 is credited with numerous roles in Phantasy Star IV, but he recently mentioned that he designed the game’s title screen (the logo is pretty much the same as that of Phantasy Star I, designed by Rieko Kodama) as well as the planets seen in the opening. x.com/Locky_hca/st...

This evening’s work… mod a proper USB-C port into a GameCube pad so I can charge the 8bitdo mod like a normal person, instead of using that silly micro plug that I’ll lose if I take out the house. I use this pad and the Xiaomi Pad Mini outputting to a TV screen twice a week on GC PSO sessions.

Translate indeed.

We're looking for a graphic designer/illustrator to join the Hello Sunshine team for a few months, starting ASAP. There are a lot of artists here looking for new opportunities so I'd be super grateful if y'all could share this call with your followers! www.redthreadgames.com/graphic-desi...

A reminder that Vita3K+ plays TxK really nicely on a Meta Quest 3s…

Any of my friends and acquaintances around Merseyside / the North West want a free C64? It's got the ol' browning colouration, but the cassette deck seems ok. I cannot confirm if it's working or not. Has the PSU and a few cassettes.

A spot of TxK before bed (Vita3K+ on a Xiaomi Pad Mini). Guaranteed electric dreams.

@gingerbeardman.com Great Wave sighting! www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Here's an update on how the retranslation is looking! If you've played the game before, believe me when I say this is doing more to make it feel fresh than the colorization itself. It still needs a final editing pass, but I'm really happy with how it's coming together.

Chiki Chiki Boys and Atomic Runner Chelnov were released on this day in Japan!

Urgent reminder that you need to update your @play.date TODAY or you’ll lose access to the update server. Then, to test if it’s worked, visit the Catalog store on the device and buy my game, SKEW. This is the only failsafe way. Obviously.

Finished one character's story in FE: Fortune's Weave last night, and didn't realise it as I had to sit through another 20 mins of gum-flapping when I resumed the story again today. So. Much. Dialogue.

Opened up an old rucksack, found a Japanese Tetris DMG cart. C'est la vie.

@takiudon.bsky.social dammit, I ordered my SS1 yesterday! Any chance I can get a cable added?

Holy shit. Someone has decompiled the Adobe suite, rebuilt it in Rust and released it as open source. Either all software is dead or the US copyright laws are about to receive an update. getartcraft.com/apps

@gingerbeardman.com Great Wave sighting… getartcraft.com/apps/photocr...

I finally have a build with everything: 12px height font, VWF, colored bubbles and labels🥲 Almost everything regarding text is finished!

Picked up the @bitmapbooks.com The Arcade 1971–1999 book from Play Expo on Saturday, and got it signed by Eugene Jarvis! (and Paul Drury of course!)

I'd really like to be wandering around Play Expo Blackpool with a beer in hand again please thank you very much.

I'll try and dump my copy of Vector PACK for Mac 1999 today! I paid almost this much for 2xCDs. There's also a Windows equivalent that covers Japanese PCs and handhelds. Essentially searchable backups of Vector website. #preservation #cdrom #japanese jp.mercari.com/item/m427210...

If your indie game gets 10 reviews, you’re performing better than ~90% of other releases in that week. Keep going! 🙌

There is *so* much dialogue in Fortune’s Weave.
