Retrogaming and Retro-vibe gaming on YouTube.
1000 YouTube subscribers milestone has been reached. The channel's path wasn't one straight line, so the numbers are nothing to speak about. I'd started with Minecraft, then it went through a playthrough phase and a language change... And now we are here with #Pico8 Adventures.

PMG won the Knickerbocker Award for Best Games Journalism last night at the @nyvgcc.bsky.social!
It feels like we've come such a long way since we first launched this thing nearly eight years ago, but winning a journalism award at an event in NEW YORK CITY still seems totally mad to me.

Ok, it may be time to (possibly) filter out some of my followers.
First of all, F%CK ICE.

This is perhaps a good time to mention that I attended this preliminary hearing at the start of the week, met some of the fired union members in its aftermath and have been able to review Rockstar's evidence in-person for myself.
We'll have more to share once the result has been announced.

I've used two days out of my New Year holidays to make a brand new #trailer for my channel. I wasn't making any playthroughs or streams for a while, so the old one wasn't really describing the reality.

So I'd bought #BaldursGate3 on launch, but only started to play it now. Probably the first story-focused game in a while that I'm just gonna play for myself, not for a YouTube playthrough or something.

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.
That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.

A good video. It seems too much people stop valuing sentient life the moment they figure out it was created by someone else.
I hope these folks will never have kids if they really think that they have a right to end everyone they or somebody else helped to come into this world in one way or another
