Hey, hi!
I've made a fresh new account where I'm hoping to post daily screenshots of PS1/N64/NDS/PC etc. games, specifically low-poly 3D games in much higher resolutions (and different angles, where available), so if it's something that might tickle your fancy, check it out!

You know what, that Quake Brutalist Jam III is pretty alright!

Shrek (2001) is older than ICE and DHS
semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003

when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

This video is great on many levels but the cute HI-VISION cats and the ending make it amazing.

Happy New Year!
The world may be dark and difficult but being loving, kind and supportive brings a light and hope that's immeasurably stronger than any evil.
I wish you all the will and strength to achieve everything you set your mind to and all the opportunities and luck you deserve, 'coz you do!

Love seeing people still having this deep appreciation for the cinematic platformer genre.
I wrote a comprehensive (and now very outdated) article on the genre a decade ago and I can see they've touched on some of the same early games (like Dark Castle), good research!

Reposting for all the #silksong and #eurodance fans out there 🎵
Silksong's beautiful soundtrack, especially the Choral Chambers theme has this haunting and very catchy tune, which very much reminded me of early 2000s eurodance with the key and chord progression.
So I thought I'd try and see what the chambers would be like if the bugs were doing a rave. Enjoy! 🙌

Singing to the tune of Boy Meets Girl's Waiting for a Star to Fall:

🎵
Waiting for a fart to come
And letting it out into the world
Poop is what I got
With my farts
Baby, yeah

Bonus pic of blue Imp butt because you can't actually see it ingame even though the Imps wiggle their tush at you with their pants down.

Man, Neneh Cherry's Manchild is such an awesome song. Just listen to this rip with just the backing vocals, easier to hear the melody and arrangement, it's so good ✨
