The grass is always greener on the other side of the void! I wish I could see it. Explore the out of bounds with me as an IN-GAME mechanic in the hit new me video! You can do it here woooohoooooo: youtu.be/1eT7V6Rv1s0

I'm going to record some footage for Switch Sports Resort over the next couple of hours. If anybody is around to play and wants to look nice in the background, please reach out!! I'd love to get some online footage with beautiful faces.

Thanks for playing @niiro.bsky.social !! And thanks to the friends who let me know they're up to playing in a few hours!!! I'd love to put a larger lobby together to see how all that works, so if you're up to play later today I'd still love you on board!!

Had a lovely and wonderful night seeing @buttonmasher.bsky.social live in Manchester earlier this week. I think a ravine came from my eyes after hearing Polyanna at a live performance. I've heard Aquatic Ambience in live music clubs twice this year now. He was very lovely to meet post-show. :)

Love it when people boast about making stuff and specifically brag about how it's ̶v̶i̶b̶e̶cuckcoded. Whoo, go you, you didn't actually do anything but initiate the endless theft machine you skilless parasite.

I opened Twitter last night to read a thread about the grim state of game decomps and figured I should spend a few minutes looking at how that place is now. Holy shit it's miserable. I can't begin to list everything one with it, but not a single thing I came across had a shred of positivity or joy.

*everything WRONG with it I shouldn't write Bluesky posts under the amber sky of a walk last Asda. Kinda works against me.

I don't blame anybody using it to cross post, I get it, particularly for my friends in media relevant positions, but I cannot fathom why the average person would invest time into anything over there when they can indulge literally anywhere else. It's genuinely such a disheveled, depressing platform.

YouTube Automatic Chapter Titles: The deceptive breakdown How To Unknowing Bond Relationship Friendship The Second Trial Results Big Preparation The Trial Begins Sponsorship The Trial Starts Outro The Final Trial And it's a video about the standard size of large drinks across the world.

I got blocked from Instagram for saying "Free Palestine" in a comment that's wikid.

It's back with a warning to not post hateful content. I don't recall doing that and I wasn't planning to start but I'll keep it in mind.

So called "Android Authority" isn't aware of the official android port smh...

I should record all my videos in a Primark changing room so I have an infinite amount of costumes and clothes for each project.

I've been a little quiet lately since I've been doing a lot of prodding and looking into work outside of the internet, but whoah!! 950!!!! Maybe even one more!! The channel is SO close to monetisation, only 50 more to go... Thank you for giving me the time of day <3 Big fun things soon, maybe!!

This is an admission of guilt on Nintendo for not sending accurate material that reflects content only suitable for five year olds to Pegi.

It's been fun to do thumbnails for this series as I try to squish characters together and practice some color theory. You can check all four of these years on the channel now!

The results of the Top 10 Video Game Soundtracks of 1988 are now live! We've got some major heavy hitters, some lesser known classics, and a new set of oddities to discover. Where did your favorites fall? Join me, @jon.gvg.io, and @ash.gvg.io as we run down the list! youtu.be/NNW_lk4t1Qs?...

I really enjoyed getting these photos from Ubisoft's Gamescom booth for Rayman Legends Retold (huff puff in sellout) it was such a comfortable place to be with very genuinely kind staff all around. Much love to Rayman for being present on the day when most fictional characters would've flaked.

I'm officially Ubisoft material, but unfortunately for them I was not in my prime. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MOJ...

Finally got around to listening to the new mix of Rubber Soul. Pretty flipping good. I always forget how delicate this album is as a middle point between the structure of their older work with the instrumentation of their future ahead. Always happy to have the hard panned mixes phased out too.

An increasingly common thing I see: people assuming that very small teams, making the childhood games we loved, only had really compartmentalised roles like "manual" or "producer". Everyone needs a job title, but there was a ton of creative overlap that mostly goes unacknowledged! It got messy.

all vibe-coded ports look and feel like shit because theyre made by people without the experience or passion to pay attention to the small details these projects are like a disease to the reverse engineering community and must be rejected at all costs if we want to maintain a standard of quality

My friends coerced me into paying for a Sony product. It was a good time, though.

I've got a storytime™ video in the works. :) I was aiming to have it finished today but it needs a little more time, I've been a very busy bee. bzzz. bzzzzz. Yeah. Bees know what that mean. Will release this Saturday, with the Patreon edition being available as soon as tomorrow! bbzzzz.

I see nothing good about Rare being absorbed into Activision, given how they treated Vicarious Visions and Toys for Bob.

I'm in an art gallery and there are prints of AI slop on the wall. Why does my heart keep on beating in this world?

I love my job. Getting to chat with @playtonicgames.com's Chris Sutherland about his @rare.co.uk debut (and one of the first Game Boy titles I fell in love with) was a real joy. Please give it a read 🙇 ✌️
