Geologist by day, Artist by night!

As much as I am impressed by modern game graphics, I sincerely miss the charm of old blocky models and environments. If anyone makes a game that looks like harvest moon 64 I would buy it immediately

Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther away—and on the other side of the Sun—mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).

A crescent Moon seen during the day, arcing from upper left to lower right of the frame. At lower centre is the full disk of Jupiter; the small dots to its upper left and lower right and Io and Ganymede, respectively.

Fields of Mistria is just incredible. This game has so much content you can choose to dig into if you want to, while it is also easy to just play casually and just enjoy the townspeople and the experience. The new Rune Factory will have to work very hard to outdo the experience this game offers.

Fields of Mistria is really turning out to be the game I wanted Stardew Valley to be. I think that if the devs continue to add more content through DLC, it could be as timeless as Rune Factory 4 and Harvest Moon 64 are in my book.

Fields of Mistria went gold recently; been waiting patiently for this game so long and so far it is REALLY delivering the old Harvest Moon charm with enough QOL concepts and ideas from Stardew and Rune Factory to modernize it all. HIGHLY recommend trying it!

One of my new favourite FanFest memories… a few people showed me photos of this person’s sign?? 😭😭 I managed to track them down and trade them the sticker for it. This is my precious treasure now

A photo of the Golbez & Zero sticker next to a sign that says “HELP ME FIND THE ARTIST WHO MADE THIS STICKER”

In 2023, concept art was revealed by Super Mario RPG artist Jiro Mifune where the party was inspired by The Three Musketeers, and included Wario. The posts were soon deleted, but I have restored the images to the best of my ability.

In November 2023, Super Mario RPG artist Jiro Mifune shared early concepts where the party was themed after The Three Musketeers. The posts were soon deleted, but were preserved by Super Mario RPG expert pidgezero_one. The photos are taken at oblique angles and have very low contrast. I have enhanced them to the best of my ability. Translations of the original text accompanying the concept art are provided.
