A bunch (40 precisely) of random pop characters!! Which one is your favorite?
Truxton Extreme feels like some real ass gaming so far; I’ve only played the first stage but fundamentally this is working for me Truxton has always been a particularly wide-playfield vertical shmup so that plus a few smart design choices are making 16:9 vertizontal feel pretty normal
I still don’t know when corpo-approved American English switched from saying “welcome” to “welcome in” and I can’t begin to imagine an actual reason why which makes it kind of a fascinating piece of memetics to me, like there is no real difference but someone started “welcome in” and it caught on

theres really no other term for it but square enix's major studios have been dying of terminal This Will Be Gaming In 2013 disease for like 20 years
VGC@videogameschronicle.com · last wk.A Final Fantasy 6 remake is a difficult prospect because it would need four or five games to do the story justice, Final Fantasy 14 director Naoki Yoshida says.

the effective beauty of virtua fighter's controls is that between three buttons and eight directional inputs you can command any of literally hundreds of moves in the blink of an eye. meanwhile new games are starting to require you use the fourth row of buttons that your fingers can't reach

Scary the Girl🏳️⚧️@thescaryeyes.bsky.social · 2w agoIve ran out of gas and I'm trying to raise enough money to cover a room for tonight, if anyone can help me raise 250 bucks I'd be super appreciative since it gets me off the street tonight cash.app/$realdumbdec...
so, super exciting news... we just got awarded a grant to make an experimental 3D game that will have weird FMVs and a bunch of gay aliens that talk using a queer slang known as Polari!!! big thanks to the Ontario Arts Council. we're both pumped to work on this (more to come soon!!!) #indiedev
Tokon characters that are appealing to me the most so far: - Green Goblin - Danger - Iron Man - Black Panther Idk what my actual team comp of those four should look like yet and I also feel like Carnage has a really high chance of replacing someone but in general I am digging this game so far
Imagine. A coca-cola freestyle machine made of flesh. Stick your cup into its orifice. Get your whole arm in there. It’s lips clamp onto you as it spasms cold soda into your expectant cup. It gurgles and sighs as it releases you. Various tentacular tongues clean your mess. Long live the new coke.
