i just want to make a Peace Walker-style game with hundreds of very short missions and simple gameplay

IMO that's the perfect structure for gamers my age (with a busy life)

it's a hard sell to publishers now though

the line between "portable console" and "tv console" has blurred too much

To honor Ozzy's larger-than-life rock and roll legacy, we're making Brütal Legend *FREE* on itch.io: doublefine.itch.io/brutal-legend

But this incredible deal will only last for 666 minutes, as the prophecy foretold. So get yourself clicking, before it disappears like a demon in the night...

Update: I have added color to the illustration!

Now my #RichardScarry and Alta Railway drawings are coming to life nicely.

I'm really proud to present my fully documented source code for #Elite on the #Commodore64.

This is the original 1985 source, recently released by Ian Bell, with every single line of code explained.

It’s a thing of beauty. Enjoy!

this is not a drill

we have narrowed down the exact date of f-stop’s cancellation to a period of 5 days in october 2008, and discovered a lot more earth shattering knowledge about 2009 portal 2 that breaks our foundational understanding of the game’s development.

Biggest reason was the cost compared to other commercially available DCC systems and the open source documentation of the project.

Haven’t started on the bench work yet, but I have started assembling kits for it. Currently building a GE 25 ton for a switching engine, which hangs around at the grain elevator right next door to the scrap yard on the prototype. Got a shell off shapeways and I’m using a Kati pocket line motor pack.

This is an incredibly cool scrapyard in Duluth, check out the former pilothouse of an Ore Carrier now used as the yard office on top of the building. The weathering on the crane is especially cool too.

Oh man ain’t that awesome. I am currently building a switching layout in N scale based on this scrapyard.
