Too many hobby projects going on at the same time, but trying to manage woodland.

I really need to play more of Hell Is Us. It's exactly the kind of polished, slightly offbeat AA game that needs to become the backbone of the industry as AAA crumbles under its own weight.
No Unpacked today since we had an episode out on Monday.
Instead, please take a few minutes to listen to @nickjcal.bsky.social gush about why you should not skip out on Hell Is Us this year.
It's criminal how few reviews it has on Steam.

Just finished Alwa's Legacy. Great game. I don't tend to 100% games, but I did for both Alwa's. Well done Elden Pixels.

Rolled credits on Hell is Us this weekend. Really enjoyed it, don't sleep on this one folks.
A pretty unique one. Rewarding exploration and puzzle solving, great world building, interesting characters, all fully voiced. Just a great experience overall and very well-made game.

51. HUNTDOWN
Perfectly evokes the flair of the greatest SNES action games (JUDGE DREDD, DEMOLITION MAN). Crisp controls, gorgeous retraux look & sound, the 1980s' allusions are fun but not overdone & boss fights are challenging and creative. Much fun, a bit short.

Finished Top Gear (SNES) on amateur level today... Wasn't super hard. I used the white car, It's the average car, and it doesn't need to refuel too much.
Will try professional difficulty some. Other time.

Update on my pixel art guide for beginners:
Transferred all the information from Tumblr to a Google Doc, so anyone who doesn't have a Tumblr account can now read through the whole thing!
I also updated quite a bit of information too.
I hope it will help somebody!

It's 2025 and we're still reducing screen resolutions like we were in 1994 when playing Doom to get smooth gameplay.

Worms is part of a genre of “artillery” computer games that we thought went back to the 70s, until we discovered it actually went back to the 60s. In this thread, Kevin Bunch reveals he’s unearthed long forgotten footage of the lost game that started it all.
