Coming to you in 12-bit colour! Retro games. Wrestling the Z80. Geek/nerd. He/Him/They. Custard Tarts are good. 🏳️🌈
Temptation to delete Discord is very high, this kind of bullshit notification spam is so annoying and Discord is getting worse and worse at it. If I were to tap on one of them, first thing that will happen, I will be pestered to upgrade to Nitro.
It’s funny how sometimes an obvious career decision can be such a hard one to make.

Thinking of all those in Myanmar and Thailand (plus other earthquake affected areas). Please stay safe.
Canadian and Aussie elections set to be held somewhat nearby each other. It will be interesting to see what direction both countries go in. (Aussie one not announced yet but it has to happen on or before 17 May)
not done enough to print but done enough to post at least.
Recently bought a Sony Trinitron TV, it was a bit large for the living area so I set up a gaming nook in my office.
Why is pasting in VSCode is so buggy these days? Noticing it on different computers and operating systems. Coincidentally I only noticed this after the Copilot icon appeared (I have Copilot disabled and hidden), but makes me wonder if it's related. Anyone else noticed similar issues?
Added a 50/60Hz switch to my PAL Saturn. IMO this elevates the PAL system from being the last place to being first. Now my childhood Saturn can have the best of both worlds! Wish I did this sooner.
The Sega Saturn 3D pad released in 1996 alongside Nights into Dreams, over a year before Sony's Dual Shock controller. Made in SMSGFX (smsgfx.qwerky.games). #pixelart #retro #sega #segasaturn #gameboy
Some pixel art to commemorate the migraine that I've been suffering today, its the worst one in a while and am still dealing with it. Only Master System colours today, I didn't think it needed a Game Gear palette this time. Made with SMSGFX (smsgfx.qwerky.games). #pixelart #retro
Nearly finished the pattern tool for SMSGFX, pretty happy with it! Added keyboard shortcuts to make working with the tool easier. Using it with the colour replace tool takes away worry of painting over the the wrong areas. Available on the unstable edge channel edge.smsgfx.qwerky.games
Also, I just played through Sonic Galactic and I cannot over stress over how amazing this is for a fan game. Absolutely incredible. sonicgalactic.github.io

Attempted a recap of the Sega Saturn tonight but I wasn't happy with the caps, they're too big for the heat shield, and the job was looking ugly. So after removing the dodgy caps and partially installing the new ones I've aborted for now. I'm going to order smaller ones online and try again.
Working on a pattern paint tool for SMSGFX, it's coming along nicely. This will make it much easier to smoothly blend boundaries between colours. The UI is very work in progress. Test version on the (unstable) edge channel at edge.smsgfx.qwerky.games #retro #pixelart
A glitchy, but also very purry @flakethelynx.bsky.social. His cap is a bit too big but that's okay. Master System colours were harder to find this time but very happy how it came out, especially the glitchy part. Made with SMSGFX (smsgfx.qwerky.games). #pixelart #retroart #mastersystem #gamegear
Omega Dragon in 6-bit and 12-bit varieties. Quite the bleppy derg! Choosing the colours on the Master System version was challenging, but I’m happy with how it ended up. Made with SMSGFX (smsgfx.qwerky.games). #sega #retro #dragon #pixelart
Another pixel doodle. Source is part of a piece gifted by Talinart, made by Mamath nearly a decade ago. Made with SMSGFX (smsgfx.qwerky.games) #lizard #pixelart #retro #gamegear #mastersystem
8-bit Sega Game Gear rendition of Guardian wolf's very photogenic fursona. Created with SMSGFX (smsgfx.qwerky.games) from a source image by Guardian wolf. #retro #art #pixelart #gamegear #mastersystem #sega #smsgfx

It took me 6 days but I finally managed to buy a carton of eggs! 🐣
