Another mellifluous banger. @elevenyearz.bsky.social does great work.

Polka-dotting one out for the iconic Kusama Yayoi, who passed away on the 14th of August, aged 97.
Han Zhiyu's solo developed Chaos franchise is catnip for Romance of the Three Kingdoms tragics, LotGH freaks and, with the upcoming Chaos Front, Super Robot Wars fans. Launches September 3. Demo available. Info/Wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/2770330/...
Upcoming oft-isometric mecha title The Forge: Steel Frontier aims to have players slashing as much as shooting. Intriguing! Info/wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/4489960/...
Good Smile Company had the final Paracrax production versions up for pre-order, and they ran out the door immediately. Hopefully they restock them again soon!
Alex Connolly ▞@alexconnolly.bsky.social · 3mo agoInbound 1/100 6cm capsule mecha series 'Armored Front' launching next month for ¥500. Perfect for model-agnostic tabletopping. Happy to have Front Mission at home. Website: threezero.jp/kikousensen/
Very tidy! Ludicrous loadouts on each kit, and while lacking knee articulation, they'd be a cheap and cheerful way to get some minis on the tabletop and/or modeling desk.
Alex Connolly ▞@alexconnolly.bsky.social · last wk.Finally found some! Turns out Daiso were also stocking them. The young lad has volunteered to put them together. Looking forward to seeing how these little AC-alikes shake out!

Alex Connolly ▞@alexconnolly.bsky.social · 3mo agoIf you're in Japan and find yourself close to a Can Do discount store, you can pick yourself up some of these rather fetching 4cm mecha kits for a princely ¥330.
don’t want to alarm you here but a new trailer dropped for Mamoru Oshii’s VOTOMS movie and it has the juice

Happy to report the excellent but somewhat forgotten Kohan titles are under new stewardship (RIP Timegate Studios), and are receiving much-needed revamps like proper widescreen, online, 4k, mod support etc. across all three games. Info: store.steampowered.com/news/app/971... Therearedozensofus.gif
The young lad and I just saw Patlabor EZY File 2. A good time. Less labor action across the three episodes than File 1, but still full of classic SV2-grade banter and narratives.
The RG Patlabor AV-98Plus Ingram Plus came with a suspiciously long winch cable, and I wonder if they were subtly encouraging people to try to make a cat’s cradle
Trespasser is an excellent choice. In the interest of variety, I cannot go past ol' Derek Smart's vision with Battlecruiser 3000AD (admittedly from v2.0).
Kayin@kayin.moe · 3w agoOKAY LETS HAVE FUN. "Most critically acclaimed thing you hate" is like a free square, so lets hear THE CRITICALLY WORST GAME YOU LIKE. Bonus points if it's actually bad, but 'It's actually slept on' is fine. Mine is probably Jurassic Park: Trespasser. Magical, shitty game.
Twas a good Patlabor Day. Bring on the 14th for Patlabor EZY File 2!
Alex Connolly ▞@alexconnolly.bsky.social · 3w agoHappy Patlabor Day to those that celebrate.

Alex Connolly ▞@alexconnolly.bsky.social · 2y agoA fine rundown on a unique soundtrack for a series' most idiosyncratic outing. Stay for Arai's 3 hour live set of the FMA OST. In the reworked words of @seanseanson.bsky.social, you love to hear it.
It's still a kei truck, the insurance company just has a few questions... 🛻💨
Angels Fall First even has the Peter Wartman touch! Handsome stuff.
Peter Wartman@peterwartman.com · 2mo agoomg, moddb is still around I did the concept art for this thing (not the 3d model) this was posted in *2008*, so I drew it right when I became old enough to drink lol this may be some of the oldest art by me on the internet
Angels Fall First, the plucky after hours-developed sci-fi battle game, has finally left Early Access. From its inception as a Homeworld 2 and UT 2004 mod to a full frisson of starship combat and ground-pounding, great to see it hit the big 1.0. More info: store.steampowered.com/app/367270/A...
Until we receive actual gameplay footage of Heavy Gear 3, it's adequate to reminisce and mourn Heavy Gear Assault. The devs were unceremoniously fired after the publisher (then Stompybot > BlocPlay > Playground Ventures) decided to go all-in on crypto nonsense. Vale, HGA. 2015-2018.
Drawing from the older Armored Cores, ARMED FRAME is an upcoming indie mecha title for PC. Oodles of parts, oodles of stats. You can apply for the next closed playtest now. Info/Wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/3289400/...
Six months worth of work culminating in pure zen for the diorama-inclined.
