Not super interested in the new GTA as a game but admittedly a little in it as an elaborate scheme to get Justice to make a new album

MattBodega@mattbodega.bsky.social

It’s not fair to get Justice to write an original soundtrack for your game. That’s cheating

A friend suggested buying the soundtrack album but feigning ignorance of the game and just making cover art to pretend it's a standalone album, which sent me into a 30-minute Paint.NET quest

I'd been wondering if anyone had a plan for distributing games targeting Linux emulator handhelds, glad to see Itch stepping up

Plus at the bottom of the post a little more info about our upcoming itch donk project.

www.bfxr.net BFXR major update. I need to spend a *lot* more time with the presets of the instruments, but I was so immediately sold by the Mixfxr tool (that just overlaps two existing synths) that I had to put it live RIGHT AWAY. Try it out!

I'm very please to announce a public release of my drag-and-drop bookmarking, game-making, and wandering tool Scrubjay! Scrubjay is a weird website builder that lets you cobble together web elements, images, links, text fragments, etc into a series of nested rooms...

Black Mirror S8: one episode about a scifi writer pitching dystopian scifi plots to a streaming service which turns the plots into gameshow concepts, followed by Charlie Brooker sending the S8 script to Netflix only to realize he is on a podium as the winner of Who Wants To Be Tormented By A Nexus

Big Walk feels like a game that’s just about walking around and solving puzzles, but it’s actually a spiritual journey towards discovering that you’re the stupidest person in your friend group.

I naively assumed people had worked out automating input and recording of Win9x apps, but there were approximately fifty speedbumps between my first idea of programmatically generating TAS inputs for BizHawk, and the setup I ended with (hitting random keys in DOSBox with PyDirectInput)

I made a cute chore tracker called Froggy Chore that I've been using to stay on top of my house chores for over 5 years! It has no login and lists can be shared with multiple people. Check it out and let me know if you like it! froggychore.com

As the person behind the Norwegian ads for Sjåpify, I don't think it's true that Shappifyi is "using terrible generated voices for no reason." Siappiflai is just using new tech to reach a larger audience, and that's why you should use Srbapappa, I'm not just saying that because I work at Shagadelic

Delighted to discover a package I sent to the US finally arrived after two months, after more than a month of radio silence Less delighted to discover it arrived in my mailbox
