Photo across the stony beach in Brighton towards the sun. The metal skeleton of the old pier in the far distance.

Sometimes #Brighton looks good again.

Sometimes scope creep is the game.

Alright #retroGaming, we have a minor emergency 🚨. I know thIs a long shot, but I bought the gamesir pocket taco for my son. It’s a really neat little device, turn my old cell phone into a kickass gameboy-through-early PS1 emulation handheld.

But unfortunately […]

Sooo, a routine doctor's appt (the kind I'd usually ignore) a week ago saved me from an 80% chance of dying within a year from systemic organ damage.

In fact I've sustained no organ damage, such was the good timing.

What bakes my noodle is that I usually ignore doctor's appts (ADHD doesn't […]

Reviving, from scratch, a word game prototype. Early days, just blocking out the UI before any art pass happens. Building it properly rather than hacking, in the hope I'll actually finish it #ScreenShotSaturday #GameDev

TIL Tony Tony Chopper. Today was a good day.

TV firmware update screen. Huge shouty letters saying "UPGRADING SOFTWARE PLEASE DO NOT TURN OFF"

Just staying up till 2am watching One Piece like the true software professional I am.

Been thinking about my fantasy console (Marv 300) a lot recently. I haven't really worked on it for years, but something is pulling me back in again.

My main problem is it's too easy to do 3d on it. I don't want 3d, I want sprites to be the main thing (think NeoGeo era). I just couldn't land on […]

Flat as a pancake, now I've got room to install Ark.

Time to flatten and reinstall the Steam Deck, there's a bunch of space I can't seem to free up so going straight to extreme measures because I don't want to faff around trying to find the actual cause.

Predator:Badlands on second viewing since the cinema... still the best predator film.
