This is where it all started! Back in the day this was the height of gaming. The open world and choices were fairly revolutionary!
What was your fondest memory?

"Decades" makes me feel old. I like the simpler things from my own youth, like the Gamecube and Gameboy, but also stuff from before me, like well engineered film cameras.

Importantly, all fairly fixable stuff.

What thing do you own that has lasted for decades, and still works perfectly?
henrymance.ft.com Henry Mance @henrymance.ft.com · Jan 25
We all have things - clothes, electronics, furniture - that has unexpectedly lasted for decades. But most of our stuff falls apart annoyingly quickly.

So is it possible to buy only stuff that lasts? And how? www.ft.com/content/aff9...

My zombies were getting stuck sometimes in front of random objects and also the player could escape from them going on roof of small vehicles... So I made them jump!

Zombies are now jumping happy to see you? 😅

I added some environmental hazards, so be mindful of where you step and watch out for those spinning blades.

Old pixel art drawing! Once I realized I'd started accidentally learning to draw in MS Paint I decided to start occasionally doodling to practice. This is heavily inspired by the summer sleepies, I'm a big fan of heat, and the floor, and this maximum comfort napping position
#pixelart #MsPaint
Pixel art done in MS Paint of a bedroom lit orange by a summer sunset. An eepy girl rests on the floor with her legs up on a big puppy plush with discarded pages littering the floor. A wardrobe is visible with book-ended books on top of it, along with a bowl and a cup of pens with a notepad. Also pictured is a wicked cool standing lamp with three round bulbs branching out from a center pole, and a beanbag chair. The eepy girl has her long hair splayed out on the floor with no concern for carpet mess, with her arms over her head and her spine perfectly flattened on the hard ground. Man, alt text gives me a lot of characters, huh? Let's see. The room has a red-framed widow and the floor is curved, suggesting it's rounded in some way. You can see the sunset through the window, a little bit. Everything is super orangy-red. The girl is wearing a t-shirt and either those crazy short shorts or just some comfortable briefs, it's up to you. The puppy plush is happy to serve as a leg rest. This was inspired by summers where I lived in a wonderfully-hot wooden-floored room on the third floor of one of those crazy old mansions in Montana. Actually, it's crazy how many things I doodled randomly in this picture can be tied directly to stuff I had in that room or in that house at the time, like the odd lamp and the beanbag chair - though they're more like vague references to the items they were inspired by? Still 500+ characters, huh? Am I going to get in trouble for using this like this? It feels like cheating. I mean, I didn't need to give this much detail I'm pretty sure, and I probably could have been more descriptive for certain parts - but now it feels like I gotta use up all the characters, doesn't it? Actually, no. I'm gonna stop here. I'm worried about getting in trouble for all the characters. Maybe they'll take characters out of my future posts as a tax for using all of these here.

Phenomenal! One of these days I'll try something like this for the Gameboy. (Ages ago someone made a Gameboy 'zine that was actually a reflashed [or something] game cartridge for the Gameboy.)
