Lover of retro gaming. I mostly talk about retro games and game development.
Anyone every play Sly Cooper and the Thievious Raccoonus on the PS2? I did, and I have *opinions*! (spoiler alert: they're mostly good) www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0-8...

I put together a review of Tenchu: Stealth Assassins on the PS1. Hopefully this is ok to share with the rules here, and I don't end up disappearing forever. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OXfE...

I think I have game development nailed. I have a great idea that's almost impossible to explain, there's a bunch of stuff I have to figure out in the middle, and I already know the song I want to use for the ending. I'm basically a pro at this now.

I'm still just farming parsnips.
I feel like videogames actually do provide a pretty accurate representation of real life right now because a lot of videogames are like “THE WORLD IS ENDING” and then you just collect herbs and pretend nothing is wrong

Pixel art is still a major work in progress for me, but remembering how huge our computers used to be sure isn't.

I guess I just expected more of a reaction from my waitress when I said "He who controls the spice controls the universe" about my egg 'n bacon skillet.

Rage quitting and throwing your controller is considered acceptable behavior sometimes, but probably not when you're the one making the game.

Me: I could use a little break today, maybe play a cozy game

I say this as someone using Gdevelop - it's silly, powerful, awesome and also silly.

The 3 stages of getting into game development on your own:

1. I like video games, I should learn how to make them
2. I will never have any clue what I'm doing, this is all a mess, everything is broken, God help me
3. Ooh look, I made a game!
