Watching Jerma985 with my dad as Jerma says “Virtual Bart was more important to me than Metal Gear Solid II” Wild to hear this as a fan of Jerma since his TF2 days
Was in a full theater for TADC The Last Act. What an experience.
Pokémon Fossils today! Let's all promise to be nice and respectful about this... not turn it into a gift shop scalping challenge. Let the kids get inspired to learn about the natural world. I just want to see some cool fossil comparisons and peek at a fake worm and a salamander under a log.
It was awesome to go behind the scenes again at the Field Museum today. Hopefully I’ll give another brief college lecture about my work later this year. I hope everyone will enjoy all the hard work the team has been putting into the Pokémon Fossil Exhibit.
Just saw Iron Lung with my friends at the big theater! (I famously do not like blood or most horror. I did like the game when it came out a few years ago) As far as production/post goes: it was very well done. I was squeamishly watching the whole time but enjoyed the acting, color grading, SFX, etc.
Anyone else get this unusual green sunrise in #PokemonLegendsZA ? When it happened, I thought it was a story event, but nothing came of it. Only occurred once (11/3, before recent update). The following early morning weather was a little hazy, nothing out of the ordinary. #plza #legendsZA
Another basement find! Any guesses as to which game this was?
Just finished another library program teaching kids how Pokémon cards are produced. Then they get to draw their own card following official references and such. Of course for today’s example, I had to do a newly announced Mega. #pokemonZA #pokemonfanart
Needed a change with my PC decoration. Inspired by @samimarkart.bsky.social, I designed myself some vinyl stickers. I lasered the cork fossil a while back. (For anyone concerned about airflow: it’s fine ☺️)
Does anyone have a digital brush (preferably for CSP) that looks like this palette knife technique (1st image)?? I’ve tried adapting brushes I have and ended up with this (2nd image) but it’s unoptimized and not responsive to stylus pressure in the way the palette knife would be.
Can finally post about this now that I’ve announced it. Been learning about new texturing methods, CGI motion tracking, and a bunch of other stuff to bring Minior to life! 💫 Screenshot is from my 2nd test.
I haven’t played Ch. 4 yet but I love this game so much as a whole. Here is a sketch; playing with negative space 🔪🗡️ #deltarunefanart #art #susiedeltarune #krisdreemurr #deltarunech3
Thanks to everyone who came to my lecture about video game preservation at the library yesterday! It was great to hear that everyone in attendance was genuinely interested in this topic. I hope the Slide Docs and further resources are helpful.

A scribble based on an idea I had. I think if Pokémon were real, my Appletun would not be the smartest #art #pokemonfanart
By the way, I’ll be part of a presentation at ILA RFN this year. I’m glad for the opportunity to share the wonderful work my colleagues and I have developed over the past few years at the library. (Also I’m excited about the fun PowerPoint because I love making those)
PSA: library resources! There's hoopla, too, for audio books. Our local library uses Libby, which also does ebooks. I just downloaded Kanopy and Mango to try. 🤘
For people who were fans of my Minior irl video… 👀
Hi friends! I've dropped a whole lot of new Beanies on my shop~ I only have 1 of each of the designs that come in multiple colours, so if theres something you like the look of don't wait! 🔗in bio and shares appreciated!
When I was a kid, my dad told me that a pink elephant lived in the Mindscape office building. I believed that for years and would always keep a lookout for it.
a few years ago i interviewed @frankcifaldi.bsky.social & @kelslewin.bsky.social about their work at the VGHF and why it's important at a former video game producer's house. that person was mark flitman, whose papers are the highlight of the VGHF library launch!

Where does a game like Star Fox, Super Mario Bros., or Sharknado: The Video Game actually come from?

Can anyone tell if there are IR sensors in the #nintendoswitch2 ? I’m concerned about compatibility with Warioware (Move It) lol
Quite some time ago I saw some incredible puppetry advancements (TiNK) developed by Swaybox and I am still thinking about them. I saw it out of context and thought it was for stop motion puppets (still HUGELY impressive at that) but it’s even more amazing that it’s for real time live action!!
