Some of my fave board games are from a long defunct company called Zafty Games. Pixel Glory has been a table favourite since I snagged it almost 10 years ago

The comment sections of bato have some of the funniest people tbh.

Quick Look at each of the finished Guardian battles that are feature complete (but need fine tuning!)

20 down, 2 more to go!

-SPOILER FOR A 1989 NES GAME-

Spent the evening building the Ending Cutscene from scratch for my spiritual port of Monster Party for the Game Boy Color! Tons of tricks with Actors, Palette Swaps, and Overlay magic.

I’m suffering out here because our landlord has TMobile Home Internet with 10Mb down 1Mb up when it does reach the cell tower otherwise it’s 0.05Mb up and nothing loads 🫠 I miss gigabit
new place internet speed is 380Mb download 140Mb upload

may not sound like lightning fast to some

but our old place was

13mb download 1mb upload

so it’s basically like the speed of light to me

Fitting my trend of Atari VCS -> GBC, I recently found out about VCS Game Maker by harlodo-ok, still early stages of active development but worth checking out!

github.com/haroldo-ok/v...
GitHub - haroldo-ok/vcs-game-maker: Create Atari 2600 programs with no coding knowledge.

While Monster Party GBC is on hiatus, Adventure GBC is giving me that much needed mental reset before tackling such a huge overhaul.

Here’s the (not so) mini dev log #2 for Adventure GBC
open.substack.com/pub/msriacay...
Adventure [GBC] - Mini DevLog #2
~95% Feature Complete version of Adventure from Atari 2600 for the GBC. This time we delve into the Bridge Item, Hidden Maze, and Secrets.

Unironically, I've yet to see a AAA game that looks even half as good as Minish Cap...
video games were never meant to be 100 GB

years of research yet no real-world use found for 4k textures

wanted good graphics anyway, as a joke? we had a tool for that: it was called imagining that the game looked like the manual art

Stylised art will *always* hold up if enough passion was put into it.
Nintendo released a video of Yoshi's Island in celebration of Easter.

Why is this art style still so good.

Listen here, Nightshade is a masterpiece of “Why did they make this???” But I still stand by it being a fun game

Burnout absolutely sucks, so my usual remedy is to switch over to a side project and take it at my own pace. This time around it’s an Adventure port for the GBC!

There, that works, MUCH more reasonable to do, I'll just have to be careful about how I design my levels and where I can put the collectable flowers...

Also, regrettably, they don't animate anymore, animating 16 tiles in VRAM is a lot more intensive than a single one that gets reused 16 times...

I’ve never felt so called out in my life.
you think making games is hard but its actually real hard.

Genkai OL-san wa Akuyaku Reijou-sama ni Taukaetai is a very good fantasy drama yuri, I have binge read 20 chapters and it is 1:41am 💖✨

After many years of reading romance series, I think supernatural romance has been my favourite! Very cute ones with Kuchisake-onna as a lead
