Tasty fruit, or fruit to bring on the eternal slumber? Better scan it and find out... #EliteDangerous
I've been playing a little bit of "Papers, Please" over the last couple of days. The premise of the game does sound dull - checking papers in order to enter the country of Arstotzka, but I promise you, it's a fun, brilliantly executed little game. Glory to Arstotzka! #papersplease #indiegames
The current CG is working as a test of the new Lynx Highliner, but I can't help thinking that some people are just too over-entitled. Quick short at the link below in case you were wonderings #EliteDangerous youtube.com/shorts/L07ah...

Neeeeew Achievement: You have successfully managed to get a free copy of the new Dungeon Crawler Carl comic a day AFTER free comic day. Rewaaard? This is the reward dumbdumb. You were a day late picking it up and you're lucky to be getting anything at all #dungeoncrawlercarl
Bit of a mixed week. On the plus side FINALLY got the review of the Kestrel MK2 out the proverbial door. (#EliteDangerous) On the minus side, I managed to run the spinny bit of an electric woodplane into my middle finger. (#PowertoolsDangerous) youtu.be/Ei8aNNl_zvA
The Kestrel MK2 - Small and Powerful [Elite Dangerous Ship Review]

Right now, this is the final form of the Kestrel MK2 "The Sure Thing" Something about those rear tailfins complete the look. 3x plasma shock accelerators, a beam laser with thermal vent and a corrosive multi-cannon seem to work well with this one. #EliteDangerous
Quick snap on the journey back to Shinrarta Dezhra in order to trial some more modifications. Just a ship and a star - nothing special on the face of it, but this combination of subjects is one of my personal favourites. #EliteDangerous
Came across this station whilst flying the Kestrel MK2 about... I need to remind myself that I'm a grown adult, and there is absolutely nothing amusing about the name of this station. But today is not the day I remind myself of that. #EliteDangerous
The new Kestrel MK2. There are a few like it, but this one is mine. For now at least. She's twitchy compared to the other ships I've been flying recently and the new MK2 Plasma Shock Accelerator shows a lot of promise. #EliteDangerous
There's always something both calming and unsettling about flying through a Titan graveyard. Makes you wonder when we'll next encounter these beasts... #EliteDangerous
It's been ages since releasing a video, but here we go - a look at the Caspian Explorer. This one definitely broke a record - it's used far more clips than any video I've made before it. Definitely got some mileage out of this ship #elitedangerous youtu.be/qH-73UQl78o

Taking the Caspian Explorer into the black - or rather more into the green on this occasion. She's proving to be a well-rounded explorer at the moment - still got a whole lot of jumps to make though before coming to a final conclusion... #elitedangerous #elitedangerousodyssey
Well it's here. Happy Christmas to one and all. May your day be wholesome and stress-free and spent with all those you hold dear. Bonus picture of a Krait Phantom, because I can. #elitedangerous
It's taken a little while but a new video has emerged - finally got the Type-11 Review uploaded. #EliteDangerous youtu.be/dl9mscgGVSk

I SHOULD be looking at the Caspian Explorer, or getting footage for the upcoming Type 11 video. But I might have got distracted flying this gorgeous little wedge... #EliteDangerous
Few more shots of the upcoming Caspian Explorer. There's definitely some aspects this ship does better than the Mandalay and some aspects the Mandalay does better than this ship. #EliteDangerous
So. Fun fact. If you play the game Elite Dangerous, you can actually find Voyager 1 in game. I haven't taken the trek out there yet. But I want to go find it soon.
Catherine@shadowdogdesigns.bsky.social · 10mo agoVoyager 1 is almost one light-day from Earth. The intrepid #spacecraft will cross a major distance milestone in November 2026 - 16.1 billion miles. #Voyager1 #lightday Link for more information: www.popsci.com/science/voya...
First day in the Elite Partner Program and I get to play with this gorgeous thing - the upcoming Caspian Explorer - she's not a bad ship and she's proving to be not "just" an explorer. Thanks to all who got me far enough to be accepted into the program, much love to you all ❤️ #EliteDangerous
Been playing a little bit of this recently - "Peak" It's a co-op hill climbing game essentially - both adorable and bloody frustrating in equal measure...
Is it just me, or is it taking a bit longer to jump between systems today in #EliteDangerous?
Don't mind me, just draining the local settlement for all it's titanium and steel supplies... #PantherClipper #EliteDangerous
Bit of an odd week for the YouTube channel: - Released by far my WORST performing video in a long, long time - Released my BEST performing short in the entire history of the channel Can't win them all I guess - onwards and....sideways? 🫡
Not a full review yet, but first few impressions on the new Panther Clipper MK2 #EliteDangerous youtube.com/shorts/wlFU2...

There are many Panther Clippers MK2 being shown today. But this one is mine. Yet to receive a name and still undergoing it's shakedown cruise, so far this one is overall looking like a welcome addition to the hanger, in spite of a few minor issues. #EliteDangerous
I'd like to take a moment while I'm screaming about helping people and disability to address the #EliteDangerous community directly about something. Supercruise Assist and Auto-Dock are as much Disability Aids as anything else. I'm FUCKING TIRED of people being called lazy or stupid for using them.
Rest in peace Ozzy. A true pioneer in music and an inspiration to so many bands that followed. If there is an afterlife, I do hope he's there tearing it up and rocking out with those who left the mortal coil before him

Just parking up at Jameson Memorial for access to all the internal modules that I may need for when the Panther Clipper MK2 drops later. Let's just hope that as far as ships go, the Panther Clipper MK2 will be a good one... #elitedangerous #elitedangerousodyssey
New video up today - and it got me thinking, what constitutes an old game? For me, I think if a game is legally old enough to drink, vote and fornicate, then I think it has the right to be called old - and dare I say it, retro #gaming youtu.be/KODtrS1y3Uo

Oh FFS, was looking forward to the Perfect Dark reboot. Whilst Zero wasn't much to write home about, the original is a fantastic game that still forms a regular part of my rotation. #Microsoft www.ign.com/articles/per...
