When you play a Jack The Ripper esque game, seeing the killer is a pivotal moment and 4 Penny Coffins did not disappoint. I really like the demonic direction the team took and I’m glad they went back to the hat 🎩 Check it out 👇

Meet The Ripper.

Fully immersive Wizardry is the single most @pettycommajared.bsky.social -coded thing I have ever seen

IGN just dropped our new trailer and it's SCORCHING. youtu.be/N-_R2VDU7Dk?...

What's this I see? Why, it's 4 Penny Coffins at the Unity party at #gamescom

I just learned a dear old friend is having a baby and now I feel much better than I did 5 minutes ago. She's so happy!

Night School is dead and I'm PISSED.

'Took her home It was a Friday night I wore cologne She was a pizza pie We started making out & she chewed off my pants & then I turned on the TV & that's about the time she chomped away from me I thought we'd start our own PAC-family 300 points for the strawberry Ms. PAC-MAN again Ms. PAC-MAN again

I cannot overstate how big a deal Ultima was for gaming. It shaped the medium. It also shaped me.

According to Google AI, my wife is dead. RIP Angie. Honestly, I hadn't noticed your passing.

I am replaying The Guardian Legend yet again, and it's somehow even better than I remembered. I bought it new for 10 bucks at a toy outlet in 1990 or so, and it transformed what I thought games could be. Space Zelda Compile vertical shooter where RPG elements affect both modes?! Yes please.

I just found the source code to my original 1UP Text Adventure from 2009, the little homebrew game that got me my first gig in gaming freelancing at 1UP.com. Should I clean it up, recompile it, and put it online?

For those days Americans can't be bothered to travel to one of the twenty stores in their community that sells guns. You know those stores... next to the Payday Loans and over by where the rural hospital, nursing home, and car part factory used to be.

It's May the 4th, a good day to go all the way back to 1977 when a beautiful movie taught kids the proper response to entrenched fascism: get together with your friends and blow it all up with some proton torpedoes... and don't cry for dead Stormtroopers.

I don't think enough Americans fathom the megaton-scale systemic racism SCOTUS just unleashed on the Republic. And worse, many of those who do get it are celebrating. So many people died to claw us out of Jim Crow. Turns out the bad old laws died on the books, but not in the hearts of White America.

The Supreme Court was a mistake.

Celebrating America's 250th birthday by applying for my Canadian permanent residency. 🇨🇦

Just everything is colossally stupid.

People say games and consoles are too expensive now but I say make a new Steel Battalion controller you cowards.

Exit 8 is a solid low budget horror movie.

I'm really just here to watch @duckvalentine.bsky.social play Zelda 2.

JD Vance is so incompetent that the highlight of his resume is being from Ohio.

Aw man I really need to play Flower again.

I'm really enjoying beginning to make friends here in Canada. D&D group tomorrow! 🇨🇦

Me + a video game I love.

Jesus died on the cross to save you from Sonic lore.

My wife just said "let's watch Robocop tonight" and I have never been more turned on.

This is like the least-weird thing Trump ever did.

Attention everyone. I really like living in Canada. That is all. 🇨🇦

This Sunday, if someone tells you Happy Easter... well, if they're a performative MAGA evangelical shit or manosphere disciple... I encourage you to pummel them. These people really need a good pummeling or ten. Use a shovel or an air fryer if handy.

This is a real New York Times headline. "Experts Are Dubious" is the saddest little coda on the colossal institutional madness of this era. Print those words on humanity's tombstone.

I was this many minutes old when I learned there's a freaking Shiren game on Android.

Should I go to this?

I somehow missed that I can now play Ninja Kids on Switch 2 and in typical Jared fashion I find this discovery very exciting.

Y'all, I worked on this, and it's dope. The team behind this game are absolutely great humans. Please watch the trailer and drop a comment if you like it.

Come see us at PAX East booth 15111 over the next four days. Snag some swag and meet 4 Penny Coffins designer Kate Olguin. You may even walk away with free codes for Other Ocean games.

It seems like any time I tune into retro game stuff on YouTube, in ten minutes the algo decides to take me down a right wing grievance rabbit hole. The old white guy to fascist pipeline strike again.
