Once in a while I like to indulge in some Techno but I have a crazy deliberating amount of impostor syndrome when it comes to this genre. I have no clue how you're "supposed to" produce this stuff and just operate purely on vibes.

The epilogues for some of the villains shown during the credits for the Genesis version of the 1995 Spider-Man TAS game are kinda messed up.

Denoisers are usually seen as very clinical editing tools but I like the way they work on pads in place of a typical filter, especially after you add reverb+delay back in afterwards and how the "artifacts" interact with them. Doing EQ/filter preprocessing before the denoiser also sounds cool.

I don't know if putting a transient shaper on the drum bus should be considered bad form but I just love messing around with the entire signal this way

Just an old brief style study trying to make Acid Breaks in FM simulating squelchy distorted 303s. Dated January 2021. God, it didn't even feel like it was that long ago.

First time doing growly FM sax. Very unwieldy with inharmonic noise as a byproduct. I just hope the worst artifacts are buried enough in the full mix. Essentially you have to abuse the hardware LFO at max speed to attain the effect. OP1 feedback values need to be very surgical as well.

Currently fascinated by Bleep Techno which was an a short lived, almost exclusively UK offshoot from the late 80s that didn't really survive the rapid evolution of dance music at the time. And to really drive home the point this Hypnotone single uses Game Boy imagery for the vinyl cover.

Hot take but I actually liked the doc robots in MM3 and thought having the original stages recontextualized with harder level design was more interesting padding than the back-to-back castles that became formula in subsequent games. I think they could have really iterated on this concept somehow.

If you want a trip, just browse Discogs for thumbnails of compilation albums from the 90s.

Appears that actually being nice and paying to register WinRAR is effectively pointless, when it turns out your "perpetual" license is only valid for that specific version. Found out the hard way after updating due to the exploit announcement.

Look no further than the original Might & Magic series. It's possible the bestiary of PS3 was directly inspired by that given how early dungeon crawlers were popular in Japan and ported/localized to computers like PC-98.

Playing WoW again. As a habitual orc player I never thought I'd play a kul tiran but this was too good an opportunity to pass up.

Not my favorite movie by a long shot but my favorite moment is probably the intro to Jason Goes To Hell where the feds ambush him and they're doing all this dramatic ziplining and tacticool combat rolls while he's just standing there helplessly getting sprayed with bullets.

It's also the first ever game (AFAIK) with normal mapping. Before there even was GPU support for it! I saw a video marveling over how the entire underside of an office chair was fully textured with normals. You must have really liked seeing the normals interact with objects from different angles.

I wish more modern pixel art games utilized hue shifting for the colors as opposed to monotone shading which feels so much more pervasive. To illustrate the point I took this screenshot of Seiken Densetsu 3 and removed all the hue shifting to make all the elements shaded using the same gradients.
