Jack Attack! This was, I think, my first ever game on a cartridge—a C64 cartridge! It was pretty shallow gameplay-wise, but it obviously scored bonus points by being named after me 😊 And it LOADED INSTANTLY!!!!
Jack attack. Blobs and bricks.

Had a good time with the Outlanders #NintendoSwitch demo today. Didn't realise it was an old game, but it has a nice Settlers feel to it.

However, the choice to have rotation as left/right and zoom as up/down on the same joystick is *baffling* - nearly ruins the whole thing.

If you see this, post a fun guy. Sorry - post fungi.

🍄🍄🍄 Came across this beautiful specimen just yesterday — I think it's a parasol mushroom! 🍄🍄🍄
A medium-sized mushroom with a pronounced spherical head, dotted with indents, and a dappled stripy trunk.

If you see this, quote skeet with a screenshot from a video game that released the year you were born
4 rows with 10 white 'space invader' alien characters in each lie at the top of the screen. The player character is a green spaceship at the bottom, with a gun pointed up, toward the invaders. Everything is on a black background.

This awesome #LuigisMansion artwork from Elliot Chapman. Showing with lots of other cool artwork in the Undercroft gallery in Norwich (just at the top of the market).
An illustration based on Luigi’s Mansion. Luigi holds a powerful flashlight, which illuminates a wall in the background. In a large mirror just behind him, an enormous ghost towers down menacingly, a thick blue tongue lolloping out of its mouth. Paintings on the wall depict other Mario characters either looking scary or scared.

Do game reviews like @thinkygames.com does: no rating, lots of lovely info!!
8 sets of information about the game Arranger. Each has an icon and a short textual description. They read "includes non-puzzle gameplay", "has narrative", "no timing or dexterity", "no elements of chance", "grid-based", "fairly easy to reach an ending", and "fairly easy to reach 100%".

#AMonstersExpedition
A meme from the film Donny Darko. A young man says "I made a new friend today" and his therapist replies "Real or snowman?" In the final frame he replies "Snowman" with an overlaid screenshot from the game A Monster's Expedition, in which the player character is hugging a snowman with the caption "you made a friend!"
