New video! About found footage horror, how it does (and doesn't) work in videogames, and how it all intersects with my childhood memory of finding something spooky hidden deep below the bounds of a multiplayer FPS map. youtu.be/JJqprfoOMnM

Tokyo Fist is a fucking nightmare, baked in so much hopelessness all you want to do is escape, violence and modification becomes the release but it also becomes what reinforces the horror of it all. A goddamn masterpiece holy shit.

The first SIGNAL LOST Development Update in 2 years is now live on ModDB, featuring a 16 minute long devlog, an absolute load of new Episode 1 & Episode 2 media, and several weapon model showcases. Hopefully it'll of stacked the weight! Link to the video, article, and more below!🧵

SIGNAL LOST Episode 1 can now be played through start-end, without the use of console commands. One step closer.

for some reason Plex added 'Rip" to my copy of Darkness and my friend group latched onto it so much that their go-to weed smoking euphemism is now some variation of "ripping a fat Leif Jonker"

These movies are definitely flawed but if you can stick with them, the highs are *extremely* high. Some of the coolest/scariest imagery you can see in a movie!

in case you missed it, i wrote about Kurt Cobain and the longstanding speculation about if he was trans ellaguro.blogspot.com/2026/10/was-...

ARES// Made a brief updated ModDB trailer because the other ones feel so outdated after the last year, it's nothing too flashy but I wanted to at least get something more up to date out to properly show stuff off.

only did a few tomato plants this year because doing 7 last year was kinda overwhelming lol. a little sad that it's been a few months and haven't had a single Roma make it past green (i think some creature has been taking them). made some focaccia with the small boys tho and it was very good!

New post! Join me as I gush about the iconic shmup Gradius, psychedelic sci-fi, and the importance of never listening to the internet (except for me, listen to me). Oh and moai. Lots and lots of moai. 🗿🗿🗿 Give it a read, punk!!

NEW VIDEO! 👻 White Day has a cult following that stretches far beyond its home country of South Korea. Today we’ll be diving into this stalker horror classic, as well as the 1975 experimental folk song ‘Migung’ that helped shape its identity. youtu.be/ZwWFUQpQA98?...

New video! What do Hungarian mathematicians, Alfred Hitchcock, a golf course in hell, and the Japanese military all have in common? They all have games on the 3DO, and a force greater than me has compelled me to talk about them and many more Japanese 3DO games. youtu.be/fYp2ryfrFm8

NEW VIDEO OUT NOW COVERING RESIDENT TURKIYEVIL youtu.be/WQVpCGlQc_0

++NEW VIDEO ONLINE++ Y'ever have one of those nights where you can't sleep, and you end up thinking about a game and find out that you can just play it? Y'ever end up in a rabbit hole because of it? Come with me, and let's take a ride, on Heavy Metal: FAKK2 <3 youtu.be/VsWqm_IONCo

seeing this reminded me that i made a DBZ AMV with this song a few years ago to learn how to use Premiere. I occasionally get a nice comment on this video and it hits harder than 100 on my real videos lmao youtu.be/xnSbsdISJDQ

New post! Today I’m discussing dolls, mountains, and cats with the little seen anime classic, Licca-chan to Yamaneko: Hoshi no Tabi! Come for brand integration art, stay for the profound intermingling of tradition, faith, and life. Read it here!!

very wild screen to randomly encounter today while getting screenshots from Jackie Chan Stuntmaster for the PS1

New video! "Typing horror" sounds like a joke, a subgenre of a subgenre. So why do these games keep coming out -- and keep being so good?

i have no attachment to ocarina of time but i think it's actually extremely cute/inspired that his little tunic looks hand crocheted

Now presenting: THE shot I've been dreaming of glitching ever since I learned you could circuit bend a playstation PS1 bent by gork_online, generously loaned to me for the time being

In retrospect

New video out on Rainy Season by @inasafujio.bsky.social A beautiful little indie cozy game focused on nostalgia that made me feel lots of things. Check it out! youtu.be/jwFZPMOcexo #cozygames #cozygaming #indiegames

Kill.Switch was the game that basically invented the third person cover shooter as we know it, inspiring the likes of Uncharted and Gears of War, defining the genre even today. It's also old enough to have gotten a weird 3D GBA port, which is what we're looking at today! youtu.be/gwRXgsEr200

I feel bad for posting this, but my job cut my workload drastically in July due to AI. So if you liked our Klonoa video and wish to support us on Patreon now would be a great time! @frokenkeke.bsky.social is also open for commissions, and you can buy her comics on ko-fi if you like. Thank you!

once again, thinking about that GTA4 reveal trailer that's basically just doing Koyaanisqatsi lol. but it worked! very efficiently sells the scale of the game and the difference in tone from the previous entry. watched this so many times back when it came out

every single day there’s a new video game esoterica video and it’s ten minutes of him going wow another rexglue 360 vibe coded recomp, like and subscribe. it’s so depressing what’s happened to the retro game modding scene the past year or so

New review out on Dragon Ruins 2: Aftermath! A very enjoyable expansion for the dungeon crawler for tired people by @yomigael.bsky.social Check it out! youtu.be/SaAw4xGz3Rg

in my last video i talked a little bit about how i feel the "noclip" element of backrooms is kinda under-utilized, but Pim *really* nailed what i was trying to say with that here lol. really cool video, check it out!

Hey everyone, a new video will be out in about twelve hours! But if you can't wait that long, here's one I prepared earlier (And forgot to post here when it released, whoops), enjoy!: youtu.be/4cpeVxCOAdY

New video out now on the Liminal Space exploration / horror game: Dreamcore! Focused mostly on the zenlike gameplay experience and featuring rambles on childhood nightmares, hotels, and a book about running. Check it out! youtu.be/JzBKGlvQr6Y #LiminalSpace #LiminalSpaces #HorrorGaming #Dreamcore

I was so happy to speak briefly about the live-action Uzumaki manga adaptation from 2000 and also mostly about how i hard it was to obtain japanese horror movies when i was a teenager. Great list from tons of cool people with lots of movies i have to seek out now!

This was the original pen sketch, I wanted to honor the film and expirement a bit with collage myself! Bonus Hollows in the corner.

Big thanks to Baxter for letting me write about the Fatal Frame movie for this! Here's a fun Fatal Frame film fact: during the scenes where we see thru the lens of the Camera Obscura, you can hear the same "spooky ghost sound" as in Fateful Findings, another F.F. movie. Coincidence? Who can say!

I'm so honored to be asked to write about one of my favourite Japanese horror movies along with some of my coolest pals! Click through to read my thoughts on X-cross- I guarantee you'll love it! ✂️ Don't forget to check out everyone's links and follow if you like what you see. 💚

New post! We’ve got a big one today, folks. In honor of Japan’s spooky season, I asked 10 of my incredible horror expert friends to each recommend a work of Japanese horror they wish the world talked about more! You WILL walk away with at least one new ghoulish delight to love. Enjoy!!

got an absolute all-timer post coming this Friday (spoilers it's spooky season in Japan. double spoilers I bullied a bunch of friends again)

Alright y'all, this is it! The final stretch for the game industry hardship fund. We've got $13k to raise in 14 hours to meet the final goal, I think we can do it. itch.io/b/3802/game-...
