I want to make a twin stick shooter game with a separate PDF manual. The game itself gives you the basic controls but hides things like "you can have your protection mission targets follow you" in the manual. Also put cheat codes in the back.

I will post about Basketball and Tabletop RPGs in amounts that will annoy fans of either.
You can almost trade for a Walker Kessler with those picks and cash 😳
BREAKING: The NBA has ruled on the Los Angeles Clippers in for salary cap circumvention investigations on Kawhi Leonard after yearlong probe -- stripping the franchise of 5 first-round picks, issuing a $30 million fine to owner Steve Ballmer and suspensions for Ballmer, Lawrence Frank and Gillian
Really tough to lose five NBA Draft picks and not get Mikal Bridges in return
I think I might envy the people whose only social media is the Splatoon miiverse-like system.
Tentatively making something for Marathon Game Jam and I don't know if its interesting for anyone else but it should be fun for me to learn some stuff. Making map 1, Arrival, from Marathon 1994 as a turn based RPG. I might flame out before finishing but we'll see.
Olivia Miles is running the offense for the best team in the WNBA while shooting 50-40-90 and leading the league in NBA Street Moves Per Game AND SHES A ROOKIE
Oh my goodness, Olivia Miles behind the back pass to Kayla McBride for three #WNBA
Finally got around to writing about Star Ocean 3 and Crystal Project. jama.neocities.org/pair-of-710-...
Pair of 7/10 RPGs - Star Ocean 3 & Crystal Project
Over the past couple months I finished some RPGs, and these are two I feel like talking about. I don't…

Starting to slowly collect a list of PS1/2 and GameCube RPGs for when I (eventually) get an emulation device. Got Rogue Galaxy, Radiata Stories, Suikoden 3, Breath of Fire Dragon Quarter/4 and a couple others but could use some recs.
well congrats everyone, after the success (15k reviews!) and positive media coverage that AI-generated-art library-sorting game on steam got, there's now a rapid wave of AI-disclosure sorting games releasing on steam
Its so wild seeing republican style attack ads in a Democrat primary for Senate, but then you check and the huge ad spend is coming from a bunch of republican sources, natch. Makes the attacking candidate less trustworthy IMO if they're fine taking ad spends like that.
Crystal Project and Star Ocean Til the End of Time, the two of the three most recent RPGs I finished, are both incredibly 7/10 game (complimentary). I should just throw reviews of them in a single blog post just to write something.
Posts like these really do show how out of the TTRPG Discussion Loops I can be. This might be a faulty premise from sentence one but whatever. jama.neocities.org/how-the-stor...
How the Story Goes (Or: GM's Thump Your Chest)
Love to always have to start with a preface, but I feel like they're important to sort of set expectations.

Does Bluesky just default to claiming you're in Texas whenever you access it off wifi/without giving them your location data?
Star Ocean inspiring me to add "depleting magic causes KO/death" to tabletops. People go unconscious from more than physical pain!
Have not wanted to look into the Android emulation devices, until I started jamming through Star Ocean Til the End of Time during the heatwave, and since.
We need some help doing technical writing/editing for Lancer Tactics' rules text! Inline glossary tagging, styling, & adapting wording when it doesn't make sense in a video game context. ~40 hours of contract work staring at google sheets; job posting is here: lancertactics.com/hiring-techn...
I need to find some new 00s/10s pop music. Something along the vein of The Pillows, The Capes, Love in Stockholm, TWEWY OST, I guess Cake adjacent. Something fun to sing with.
Good news: The wind shifted and is coming from the north, starting to cool things down a little. Bad news: It's bringing wildfire smoke.
Thinking again about how to property implement a basketball TTRPG. I don't have the design chops yet to hammer out a prototype so for now it sits in my brain percolating.
New high score: 94.8 degrees in my apartment and like 60+% humidity.
Apartment is at 83F (28.3 C) at 5 am. It has been Difficult to Sleep.
Man, I don't know why 2D fighting games just feel so much worse to me than 3D ones. Specifically Tekken I guess. I should try VF in the near future just to see if it's just "I vibe with Tekken more" or if it's 3D fighters themselves.
Affinity Publisher looks like it should be straightforward, but I think I need to dive into some tutorials to figure out how to do simple things like "Erase this spot so it creates a negative geometric space". Or if I'm trying to use a jackhammer to pound a nail and should try like, Libreoffice.
I don't think restaurants should be able to advertise they're open late if their lobbies are closed so you *need* a car to pick up an order.
