The owner of this business is a old, wonderful friend & a former employer of mine, so please, I need all of my Pacific Northwest followers keeping an eye out for this stuff, especially if you run in nerd circles, so that his dream business, built via decades of grinding, can keep running.
KIRO 7 ran an article and two TV pieces on the theft of a box truck full of arcade PCBs, artwork, and machines from my workplace yesterday. If anyone in the Seattle area sees someone offloading a ton of CPS2/NAOMI/Neo Geo PCBs, stuff of that nature, please reach out.

your game isn't in competition with tik tok in the same way it's not in competition with huffing glue or eating drywall

The game I "designed" in my dream last night is a 2d platforming game where once you finish the first bit, you replay the same levels in another genre in another genre.

As an FPS, you can see all the hidden tunnels obscured by the 2d perspective. Playing it as an overhead RTS gives a similar change

I'm at that part of Warframe where anything higher than level 30 kills me, and there's Mod work that can be done to break that barrier, but all the guides talk about things you can only get once you're past where I am. It's that odd place nobody can remember how to surpass.

I'm losing my mind over how many reviewers are like "GDT's Frankenstein makes you wonder who the real monster is." THAT'S THE STORY! That's the story Shelley wrote!

I learned how to play the riff for Iron Man on my Shawzin, and now I'm thinking of getting my guitar out of storage.

Video games are magic.

and when there was only one set of footprints, that was when Dracula had taken me, and I was fighting Dracula in the air, and he bit me, and I too became Dracula, and I flew in the air as Dracula, but then I remembered we were doing beach stuff, so I came back

Only in Warframe will somebody offer to help me with a difficult mission and then tell me after that the frame I'm using is shit.

There's just too much to do.

Over the last twelve years, I've given Warframe five good solid tries. I see the appeal. I have fun on occasion. But it has the same problem most MMO's do, where the mechanics don't get more interesting and what makes it challenging is the extra 0's added to everything on the tuning spreadsheets.

STOP THE PRESSES.

The ROM for the unreleased Famicom RPG Splatter World has been released (in a thread on 4chan, of all places). I've tried it myself, and it does seem to be genuine. If it's a fake, it's a damn good one.

Expect (more) coverage on West Mansion soon.

Enjoying the simplicity of Dice Throne and how modular it is and thinking Dice Throne Adventures would be a fun way to extend the value of my heroes.

Cut to me with a coffee table covered with tokens and cards and standees. Having a spot of panic and regretting this move.
