HOWEVER: as a counter-balance to this, a group of people online did something *incredibly* kind for me and this family member, completely unprompted. You know who you all are, and you are wonderful.
As bad as everything is - and many days *really* suck - you've all given me some hope. Thank you!
I don't exactly post on here or the old site often, but as an update: things have been unbelievably stressful lately. The TL;DR is that a direct family member we live with has a terminal illness. I was already acting as a secondary carer, but things are increasingly difficult for all of us.
Maybe Freeza was in the UK!! Didn't think of that, did you!? 😝

Hellloo I'm about to ~announce~ my side project and I'm looking for journos and press interested in cozy horror/fake OS/visual novel/set in the 90s style games. If that's you hmu! Or if you know of folks pls lemme know!
I'm building my own list but I'm bound to miss the perfect person.
Curiously, almost exactly a month of Enigma; did Capcom licence it for just a month use this as a test case for the DRM? @digitalfoundry.bsky.social
In any case, thank goodness!
Hey, @digitalfoundry.bsky.social: sounds like Capcom just pushed an update on #RE4Remake on PC which removed Denuvo but replaces it with Enigma, significantly hitting performance on certain machines (and, naturally, breaking several mods/upscalers)? @capcomusa.com
How should we respond to a world suffering the neglect, indifference, and cruelty of those in power?
Beast Breaker is a game about a bouncing mouse. And also about hope and solidarity when things seem impossible.
And it's COMING TO STEAM! Wishlist now!

I really gotta get my butt going on this (I picked up the course last year), but Life™ has been a lot and also I fear everything I make will be garbage. 😂 Maybe this year...! ✍️
And if anyone wants to revisit my review thread of the game from "the old site" from *four years ago* (wow), here it is:

I stand by everything I said there! Here's hoping the game gets the success it deserves this time around.
This was one of my favourite games of 2021; an addictive, charming Peggle-ish journey with an interesting world, wonderful art, catchy music and lovely writing.
Please, everyone wishlist this. Thanks, @kandofactory.bsky.social for giving this a second chance!

"We got good! :3" - Hornet
HELLO. I AM IN A GAME.
This is what I've been working on for this last year, working with a small team inside Capy. Find Your Words is a short adventure game that highlights non-speaking kids and the ways they communicate. It also has me in a 3" inseam.
SHARE THIS OR ELSE.
HOW WHOLESOME IS THIS GAME??? (Rhetorical question; it is very wholesome and good) Hoping for all the success for this one!!
Found a pair of collapsible sunglasses with the Elite Beat Agents logo on them.
(Silly Metal Gear parody related to the video) "We have a situation, Snake. Last night, a rogue group of elite Imagineers took control of Disney World in Florida. They're calling themselves, 'The Sons of Walt Disney'. They say that if their demands aren't met, they'll release a devastating new form of entertainment on the guests of Main Street U.S.A. in the Magic Kingdom." "What are their demands?" "No less than the frozen remains of the one said to be the greatest Imagineer of the 20th century: Walt Disney." "The old man himself!? And this weapon... you wouldn't have called me here if it wasn't serious. It can't be...??" "I'm afraid so. An experimental, 11,000 pound, autonomous walking entertainment character capable of flirting with over seventeen guests per hour: Metal Gear TRIKE. Intel suggests it's stored in a compound in what used to be EPCOT - you know, before the budget cuts. We believe the Imagineers intend to bunker down there and revive the old man's dream: a haven for creatives and Imagineers alike with no country, no philosophy, no ideology, sans the pursuit of guest entertainment..." "You don't mean...!?" "Yes. OUTER EPCOT."
I made a similar joke with a goofy MGS parody in the video comments a few days ago, LOL
Spoilers for about 40 minutes into the video, but I was inspired to write this goofy comment by the absolute *wild* swings it takes less than an hour into its runtime!!

I haven't posted much here (or the old place) lately, but: I have to shout-out this extremely cool project from @mcdoogleh.bsky.social; it's Star Fox meets Armored Core meets FreeSpace... with a little bit of roguelike/lite thrown in for good measure! I have beaten the demo and it is a FUN TIME! 🚀💥
This boy is still looking a home in Montreal!
And @charalanahzard.bsky.social in with the "I DON'T WANT IT!" 😂
So I needed a new sacrifice for m'lair. So I decided to go to the Underworld, which is what they called Alefgard in those days. So I tied a moonwort bulb to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the Everbird cost six orbs, and in those days, orbs had dragons on 'em. Gimme six drago
