@johnromero.bsky.social my memory is shot, what was the shooter you referenced at play Glasgow during your talk? The one that was fixed that could be rebalanced etc.

Well it's a naff photo of the result but bringing an old #Wonderswan Mono back from the dead was quite a relaxing time 😁

Great read from @tonywarriner.bsky.social if you haven't already partaken!
Tony Warriner@tonywarriner.bsky.social · 2mo ago"Generally speaking, the opening years of the 1980s were kinda grim." Gotta be the best opening line in literary history?😁 Get em here - ko-fi.com/s/cbfc6bd357 #indiedev #gamedev #revolution #brokensword #promote
Happy 35th #Lemmings anniversary! Who'd have thought, 35 years later we'd still be talking about these little guys. #Amiga #MSDOS #AtariST #Commodore #Atari #DMADesign #Psygnosis #RETROGAMING #Lemmings35th Read about it's making here lemmings.info/lemmings-gam...
You're not helping my backlog become any shorter @onepunchrob.bsky.social 😂
OnePunchRob@onepunchrob.bsky.social · 6mo agoMonument Valley 3 complete, as well as all the memories, on steamdeck. Another great sequel that I couldn't put down, so I'm paying for it today 😅 I think my brain would explode if I even began to understand how these games work. So cool. #backlog2026
What's the most cost effective way to pull together a selection of connectors and pre crimped wires for making jst gh, grove, jst sh, stemma Qt, qwiic cables? Thought it'd be cheap to pickup a selection of kits but they're a lot more expensive than I thought 😯 #IoT #drone #makers #electronics
Simon the Sorcerer: Origins complete on steamdeck. Great to hear Chris Barrie back and some nods to the original game, which is a sequel to this. Loved it all, only needed 3 hints, 2 of which I thought I'd already tried. Recommended for point & click adventure fans! #backlog2026
Absolutely gutted about Catherine O'Hara, honestly one of my all time favourites, so many amazing lines and deliveries over the years.
Taken me far too long, but finally I have my work standing desk with all the wiring hidden and a single power cable going tidily down a 3D Printed magnetic drag chain/cable spine - already feels better walking in and seeing it.
Was just looking at trailers of Still Wakes the Deep thinking "that looks awesome" then remembered I'd sadly never be man enough to play it. Still not done Alien Isolation and a host of others I have. Solutions on how to not be a wuss and play scary games please 😭 #TheChineseRoom #Lovecraftian
Huge thanks to that there Vic @tenpencearcade.bsky.social and his tinkerings for sending his '486dx beige' edition macro my way 😁 Put a smile on my face after a grotty week! Can't wait to revisit some classics and find a few new ones 🙌 if you've not checked out his substack DO IT! #gameboymacro
Well 5 month into being a dad I'm loving it, but have been absent from my usual haunts 😭 A health scare and trip to A&E Monday night means I've got my feet up resting this weekend, so time to catch up on goings on. Happy New year all!
Absolute blinder of a weekend at #CrashLive, thanks to the team for a great weekend. Seeing Malcolm Evans was a privilege and the Gremlin team. Big love to the @specnext.com team as well, huge momentum and buzz about the platform that's well deserved and already loved 👍

Great day at #CrashLive had to leave early gutted but back tomorrow! Wished I'd not procrastinated on that next with already having a 48 and 128, the N-GOs look interesting though, just not that same 🤔
Missed you today had to leave early, marker at the ready tomorrow if you're around 😁

When you're not sure if @mdf200.bsky.social will destroy your boxed copy of lemmings or not at crash live 👀 🤔
It's not really news and I know a lot more than many to give me a head start, but Microsoft and Windows are screwed. Installing Linux Mint on old, solid hardware, complete with howdy / win hello facial recognition... it's free, it just works and will do everything needed for most home users 🤷♂️
If you missed out on issue 1 of @amigaaddict.bsky.social like me you may be in luck, after much pestering they've offered to do a limited reprint, pre-order is open 😁 www.addict.media/amiga-addict... #amiga #retro #magazine #commodore #pixeladdict

Cracking day one at Play Expo Blackpool, cracking guests, good friends and it turned out to not be a total nightmare with the little human, who'd have thought 😂
Why is it when you put things you've been tripping over for months, in a safe place, you need them a week later but can never find them 😭 🤦🏻♂️
Just heard that Billy from #TheGameChasers is in ER with a brain tumour, has genuinely knocked me sideways. Him and the gang have brought so much laughter into the world it's hard to see someone get kicked so hard by life. No matter who you are and what you're going through, stay strong. #retro
After years of talking about it, finally bit the bullet on a portable AC unit, already having regrets watching the neighbourhood lights dim every time I turn it on 😭
