Scott Miller has been platforming this guy hard over on Twitter recently. No real surprise after his recent public anti-vax statements. This is who you're supporting when you buy Apogee games.

Built a new version with the latest updates and played through every level on my Playdate to make sure I hadn't broken anything.

At the start, I didn't even know if this was possible. Now playing it feels surreal.

Which reminds me: Celebrate each win, no matter how small, they matter on their own.

Techno tunes and tune shooting in '99. Square's second foray into shmups/STGs on PlayStation, though this time only as the publisher. Blast away with weapons named after zodiac animals, all while vibing to the included tracks or your own CD.

📺: IS: Internal Section, Positron/Square, 1999

Nerf Arena Blast literally nerfed UT! They use the same engine and were developed alongside each other, but after you get past the "UT Total Conversion” feel, NAB reveals its own distinct identity. Let's look back at it 27 years later!

Is that one of those were they've clearly squished it along one axis so it looks like a round egg in the box from the front but you get less at the sides. Seen a few of those. Actual disgrace tbh

First, that's not why they're called boomer shooters. I already explained why above. This is the widely accepted origin for the term. Secondly, not that it really matters, going by birth year, most of Id including Romero and Carmack were Gen X. Thirdly, why are you being a dick.

It's irony. Millennials sometimes call themselves boomers because boomer is basically slang for old at this point. No-one actually thinks lots of baby boomers play first person shooters.

'save scumming' oh you mean responsible version control for gameplay I'm sorry I didn't realize making incremental backup states to restore as needed was a bad thing smh

In Super Mario 64 DS, giant characters normally cannot crawl. However, reading a sign pounded halfway into the ground forces the character into a crawling pose. When giant, this results in the character's giant posterior completely blocking the entire screen.

A picture of an old keyboard function pad to the left of the main keyboard. the pad contains light grey keys in a 3x5 grid. the keys are named ATTN, HERE IS, RESET, AUTO LF, DBL LF, UC ONLY, LOCAL, AUTO VIEW, FORM FEED, NO, TRY NOT, DO, OR, DO NOT and TRY with a diagonal line struck through it. To the left are flathead screws with no legends or apparent meaning.

more keyboards should have obtuse parts. things that aren't needed. switches that will never be touched.

num lock. static lock. try. try not. F15. unpipe and unpipe 2.

This is true, AB3D's water rendering is crazy for the time. Wish I could have implemented a similar effect in GZDoom for Project Osiris but sadly it was a no go. Hopefully some day!
