I like discourse until people get pissy and then I get pissy and it turns into this whole thing and maybe I should just avoid discourse
Since I'm not attempting to thread my #combotober entries and my feed is probably gonna get messy, I've put together a Youtube playlist for everything I post here. www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
Combotober 2026 - YouTube

#combotober Day 2: Lightning Legs Shadow Prisoner - Isadora Shadow Prisoner is a neat little game and I hope to work it in another time or two this month. I do not recommend actually playing real matches with this character, but she sure does kick.
#combotober Day 1 - Rising Eclipse I really love the way this game looks. Kinda wish I was recording with the bgm for this bc the music in this game is badass. This character actually has an infinite that I've found but I decided to go with perhaps a slightly more interesting combo
#combotober Day 1: Throwing Hands! For this challenge, I picked Gakushin from Koihime Enbu, the only hand-to-hand fighter in a game full of weapon users, and avoided anything with a kick animation. I might've fudged the definition a bit, but I really didn't wanna fall back on boxer characters.
AI is what happens when the Big Ideas People think they don't need those naysaying Details People who refuse to implement their Ideas (it's never "you can't because it doesn't work" and always "you won't because you doubt my vision") and skip the part where any details are paid attention to, at all
𝐔𝐧𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐫𝐚𝐛@johnxuandou.bsky.social · 2d agoMan it's like, really annoying to be someone who cares about AI usage in the FGC because we got people hyping up SF4 rollback and XDZW when both were slapped together with AI, oh but the person who made SF4 rollback says they don't like the term "vibecoded" because they had a plan, fuck outta here.
On this #combotober eve, I thought I should start a general thread for myself - I'm thinking what I'll do is have each day be a separate reply chain to this thread, since I love yapping and I'll probably wanna talk about something or other for most of these. See you tomorrow!
"Why do people build things knowing they're going to be destroyed?"
Truly the spirit of Zappa rests upon whichever genius at Ancient Computer Tech is responsible for this OST, like as in "lowkey thinking about grabbing the soundtrack on Steam for $3"
Phil Salvador@philsalv.bsky.social · 3d agoWe don't talk enough about the soundtrack of Fuck's Quest II, which was clearly made by someone who understands how to compose music and used that knowledge for evil
The best part of roasting chicken thighs - wait hold up, the *best* part of roasting chicken thighs is eating them, but the *second*-best part is having enough time to do all your dishes while you wait, so you don't punt on it for the rest of the evening after falling into a food coma
Back during their NXT days, Sami Zayn pitched a ska gimmick for him and Neville. Apparently, it was approved by Dusty at the time but for some reason didn't move forward.
generative ai has enabled the fans to wrest control from the tyranny of publishers, allowing any gamer the ability to put out a garbage port of their favorite game
George: She put Baldur’s Gate 3 on her “games that made me” 3x3! Jerry: So? You like that game. George: Don’t you see? It’s too new to have made her. I can’t be with a woman who doesn’t respect prompts. Kramer: Minnesota Fats Pool Legend, now that’s a game
You can’t even comprehend how important Eien ni Hen’s work is to the fan translation community. Romancing SaGa, Fire Emblem, Sakura Wars, Tear Ring Saga, Glory of Heracles, Dragon Force II, Dark Half, Beyond Oasis, Psi-O-Blade, Arabian Nights, and so much more. What a loss. Rest in peace.
Romhack.ing@romhack.ing · 6d agoIn memory of the translator, Eien ni Hen. May she rest in peace.
So this game called "Dverghold" came across my Steam homepage. Interesting retro vibes, apparently collabing with a dungeon synth artist for the OST. The art was kinda tickling my AI-dar though, so I scrolled down to look for any disclaimers.
I've spent 8.4 hours across this week working on a single game/challenge for #combotober and the end result of that time is something like this (The recording is saved and it will be released in its proper time)
i love this video so much i whipped up an english subtitled version real quick so everyone can appreciate it

Matt Ford@mford.bsky.social · last wk.Ezra Klein asked Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang about AI making kids worse at math and reading. Huang’s reply: “Does it matter?” Then he said he doesn’t know his own address or phone number. “We’re going to lose some fine intellectual dexterity.” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/23/o...
You know, in hindsight we should've known Microsoft considered the Halo IP worthless when they dropped the Cortana branding right before they started cramming AI in every orifice of Windows 11...
Many such cases tbh tbh😔 (The OP is on here somewhere but I do not know their @, hopefully they find this to accept proper credit)
"If we don't do this using machine translation, it won't get done at all! Is that really what you want?" Yes! Actually! Translation and localization are as much an art as writing itself, and it deserves to be done right or not at all. I won't play your lazy bullshit no matter how cool the game is.
HiMyNameisChair 🏳️⚧️@himynameischair.bsky.social · 2w agoPlease stop making slop translations for cool old games, I will put my fist through your wall.
