I try to balance difficulty in my games, and usually err on the easier side for the sake of enjoyment. But it’s hilarious to me when a reviewer says the game is too easy, and I lose track of how many times I watch them use the Rewind feature in a single level 🤦‍♂️

MISTER SCARY is now available for Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, PlayStation, Xbox and Steam! Just in time for Halloween. 💜🎃🤘•••• #misterscary #nintendoswitch #nintendo #halloween #ratalaikagames

Attempted my best Jerry Cantrell on Saturday. Sorry Jerry. #90s #90scoverband #coverband #jerrycantrell #aliceinchains

It’s hard to explain, but the glow of a CRT with that analog static is special.

Being an older dad is weird. My 5yo kid’s teacher is younger than I am, and has two teenagers of her own.

I grew up watching Saved by the Bell. Hell, I still watch it on the background while I’m working on projects. Here’s a cover of the theme song we recorded during Covid. RIP, Dennis Haskins. Thanks for being the school principal everyone wanted. #theisolatedincidents #coversong

All of our digital games are currently 40% OFF at itch.io! Happy Fall! (Even though it’s supposed to be like 90 degrees here all next week). •••• #nesdev #indiedev #indiegame #nes #calgames

Happy 35th Anniversary to this beast. When I first heard this album, I didn’t even know what to make of it. It was aggressive in a way that I couldn’t describe, and somehow still really catchy. I honestly didn’t know if I even liked it at first. Cheers, #nirvana ! #nevermind

I just walked into a Baskin Robbins here in Walnut Creek, and they were playing the Dark World theme music from A Link to the Past in the background. Made my day. #zelda #snes

I remember using a NES Advantage at a friend’s house once, and my inner monologue review was “…why”. Still, what a sharp looking ad! •••• #nes #nesadvantage #toysrus #retrogaming #ad

Anyone notice that in the show Dark Matter, when they show different universes, they use the Nintendo Switch sound effect? They didn’t even bother changing the pitch 😂😆. It’s just the same exact snap sound effect. #darkmatter #appletv

There’s no delusion of grandeur here. I just make games that make me smile as I make them. Some folks also enjoyed them, so thank you for playing! If you like quirky, the Jim & Dill NES trilogy is available digitally (itch. io) and physically. Cheers! 🤘❤️ www.dalyengames.com/product-page...

Nintendo Directs have become sort of like gaming’s Apple Events… I used to make time to tune in and be wowed, and now I just browse bullet point lists to see the same stuff year after year, just newer. 🤷‍♂️

I was actually making decent progress on a game that I’m working on, but my band wanted to play more shows 🤷‍♂️. No joke, I was knee-deep in level design when I had to head out to play 3.5 hours last Saturday. 🤘🎸#alternativeending #nesdev #90scoverband #everlong #danville

Had a great time playing with Alternative Ending today in Oakland! Beautiful weather in Chinatown for their 37th annual StreetFest. 🤘🎸 📷 Seda Lancaster #alternativeending #90scoverband #oakland #chinatown #streetfest

Am I trippin’ or did my neighbors get a delivery of arcade machines? Saw this just now as I was driving by. Might have to go introduce myself… #retro #arcade #arcadegames #arcademachine #mystery

Crazy to think that all the data in these games combined is about the size of one short mp3 file. #nes #nintendo #nintendoentertainmentsystem #neszapper #nesadvantage

The first test pressing of an audio CD occurred on this day in 1982! #cd #compactdisc #philips #retro #germany

I recently acquired this 9” Zenith CRT, which means I immediately drove to Phoenix Games and grabbed a NES Zapper. Tonight tho, is some Karate Kid. If you’re in the San Francisco Bay Area, & need of a beautiful CRT, @dadsgarage.tv is the IG account to follow #nes #tv #crt #bayarea #phoenixgames

If I’m able to do the same thing when the time comes, I will…

Finding time to work on a game is difficult. Getting motivated is also difficult. Managed to keep carbine both of those things for a little bit this morning. Here’s some annoying dungeon bats. #nes #indiegame #nesdev #pirate #calgames

This weekend I visited the mall where I used to go as a kid, and it’s weird: obviously music stores left a long time ago, but I guess Game Stop finally closed recently. So there’s zero game stores now (there used to be like, 3).

This Lego X-Files set is awesome. The only thing keeping me from buying it today is the fact that Legos are for rich people, apparently. Why is a bunch of plastic $200??
