Work on my game Game Boy game "Saki Endo's Ghost House" is progressing nicely. This is the start of the first stage, the grounds of the ghost house after my buddies Hisao and Kaito have disappeared as way skateboard! A few bugs control and performance issues but I'll crack those nuts don't worry!

Really think the UK should pick either GMT or GMT+1 and just stay there all year. Switching between them is just pointless. That's my whinge for today.
Getting a little breezy. At least I can stay inside.
I am of the opinion that I can never have too many maps. This lot fills in the gaps of the Nidderdale Way, Borders Abby's Way and StvJames' Way.
Considering putting the heating on for the 1st time this autumn.
Unusual T. rex for me: I picture them blue with white spots. But yeah. Listen to @davehone.bsky.social and my podcast. Rawr.
My latest review is now here, the forgotten Star Sweep that took on the Tetris formula and added a little sparkle. Debuting on Namco's quasi-PlayStation System 11 arcade before appearing on the PSX itself it also got a Game Boy release during that system's renaissance - but is it any good? Find out👇

Available now to Patreon subscribers on a £2 tier or above and available later today for everyone else, Star Sweep is a curious little game that found life in the arcades that sneaked into the strange 1996/1997 renaissance period for the Game Boy in Japan. I take a look at the two home ports.
Well the collision detection was a bit off, but go on, find out what's in the magic portal! My new GameBoy game is taking spooky shape.
Given how poorly I've been lately managing to walk a whole mile in one go without feeling like I was dying is very good. Exhausted now though. :)
It's been a little while since I shared progress on my game Saki Endo's Ghost House but as it's the month for all things spooky, here's the latest preview showing the start of the game outside of the ghost house, spooky! GameBoy Color will also be supported!
i always wanted to be a professor of tree nuts, and work in macademia
Flu jab done for another years. Need to figure out where to get a covid one even though they're expensive.
Just had a very nice delivery. Both the CD and vinyl of The Fierce and The Dad's new album Regional Theatre. This is another wonderful album from @mattstevensloop.bsky.social and the guys.
Eye test done for another 2 years, right eye distance vision slightly worse but I can keep using the glasses I got in 2022. Quite happy about that.
Don't know what it is but I find something a bit special about this bit of Hookland lore.
Give me lithic lookouts that watch for priestly misdoings and slowly hiss at the miscreants. Give me stone guardians that roar against all evils – not just those convenient to a church. Give me spirited stones with eyes that do not blink when it comes to staring down hate. – #CLNolan
Phobia means fear, dislike or aversion to. It is a phobia if they irrationally dislike something, they don’t need to be scared of it.
Peak District walking guides, not sure I have enough. 🤣 There are nice walks in all of these. I keep, almost desperately, hoping I'll be able to walk them again.
Like card battling games? The exploratory nature of Pokemon and discovering new creatures? Photography mechanics? Snap Kid's is a good game on the Game Boy Advance. Almost nobody has covered it in English tho. My extensive review includes how to play it. It's my #randomgamesatuday for you to enjoy!

Just watching Chrissie's latest video on YouTube and right at the end a genuinely smiling @dribelad.bsky.social appeared.
Ya-ho! Enix and Shougakkan's Pokemon Snap inspired "gotta snap 'em all" card battler is something deserving of being known outside of Japan. Extensive story, side missions, post game content, Snap Kid's awkward name aside is a good game buried in the Pokemon gold rush - check my new review out 👇

My, probably completely unanswerable, question for today is: Did T-Rex get the zoomies? Just imagining a 7 tonne emu.
Hiya, It’s Bandcamp Friday, our new album Regional Theatre is out now, and we have stock ready to go. If you order today, Bandcamp doesn’t take a fee from us, so more of your money goes directly towards helping us cover the cost of the upcoming tour. ORDER HERE: hypeddit.com/thefiercethe...
Beautiful day for a walk but after the basic household jobs (like getting us breakfast) I'm way too exhausted.
