sound enjoyer at the end of the world // blue skies forever // don't just sit around and waste your precious time
got far enough into this current simpsons rewatch to see my favorite scene in the entire show. some of the funniest animation they've ever done and dan castellaneta's gutteral "ow... OWWWWWWWWWWWW" wrecks me every time
sadly, for the entirety of the 2020s, the only affordable game system with a great lineup of exclusives will be fictional video game console "ufo 50"
get soundcanvas'd idiot (i'm learning blender and 3d modelling by extent)
follow your dreams and play eschatos 🧙♀️✨🌕️

the wannabe-industrialists in games are insistent you accept their framing at all times. you do not have to do this.
Eric@mokkograd.net · 2w agoHere are my slides and a transcript of my talk I gave during Glasgow Indie Games Fest on July 11th: Evil Game Design - An Introduction: mokkograd.net/posts/2026-0...

There's just the basic disparity, right? You enjoy something, play, read, see, do something and you hope at minimum that the person who brought that thing into the world cared enough about it to bring it to life. Why would anyone read a book no one wrote?
this is the ROMhack equivalent of watching that footage of someone playing Ridge Racer and when the big turn comes up they just slow down and take the turn normally instead of drifting

Man I still can't believe how hard this popped off While you're here I need to show off Raiden II's multi layer dynamic background destruction because I think it's even sicker than this speedkill Seibu pulled this off all the way back in 1993, imagine how mind blowing this must have been back then
Man, the timelessness of Falcom's texture work during its Windows 98/XP days never fails to put me in my happy place. So clean and pristine, yet still full of character even at resolutions nobody realistically played these games at on release. Some of my favorite stuff of this vintage. 😌
Here's the 2nd Demo trailer for my game Torasu, a 'pseudo super scaler' love letter to NES Gyruss. It will have 13 stages (~36 planned)
