I enjoy sci-fi (especially Star Trek) and games (especially Nintendo), and a variety of TV shows. I also do a bit of crafts (origami and knitting). he/him

Tonight, I hit credits on Celeste. If you'd like to go on the journey with me from beginning to end, I now have a playlist of all four videos of the playthrough: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

During a week where I've got *slightly better than usual* internet, I've been doing little streams on Twitch. That said, join me for my Celeste Finale stream where I will take on the Summit! www.twitch.tv/paperspock

Most people: Awww, wasn’t Charles Martinet so sweet? Me: Wait a minute, in that second speech bubble, Mario says he doesn’t have fingers????

In the Mario Teaches Typing games, Mario never criticizes the player for underperforming and tries to be understanding and supportive. According to Charles Martinet, that was his initiative, as he felt being negative would go against the core principles of Mario's character.

In the Mario Teaches Typing games, even if the player does badly or underperforms compared to previous attempts, Mario will try to be understanding instead of critical: Uh-oh, that wasn't quite as fast as the last time. Hmm, are your fingers getting tired? Mine would be by now... if I had any. (laughs) Charles Martinet, speaking at TooManyGames Convention 2021: I got this marvelous opportunity to do Mario Teaches Typing. And when I got the script and I'm in the studio - I'm reading the script for the first time, there were things like "You failed!" "That wasn't very good." "That was much worse... that was bad." And I was reading that and I said, "Do you mind if I just, like, play with these words a little bit and just change them around?" because, you know, I never say "no" and I never say anything negative as Mario... and the producer graciously said "Sure, go for it!" And so it became "Oh, that was good, but I know you can do even better!" "Oh, nice one but let's try again!" so it was always uplifting and always trying to be positive. And I think that that is the essence of the character to me - it's that love and that joy. Source: transcript of speech found at youtube.com/watch?v=k9RywNQXCUM

Reasons my cat Spaceman can’t actually go to space: • Too little (spacesuit wouldn’t fit) • ISS isn’t actually the International Snack Station, so he probably wouldn’t care to go • Already voms in the car, so how’s he gonna do zero g • Not sure churus count as space-safe food • I would miss him

Are you a developer who has put a fishing minigame inside your non-fishing video game? Or are you considered a connoisseur of fishing minigames? OR do you have knowledge of how real-life fishing works and how it might translate to games? I would love to speak to you for a story please!

@kinmoku.bsky.social this is a long shot, but I suggested VIDEOVERSE to a friend and he is very stuck on the first day and is trying to like/comment/report everything but it won’t progress. I can’t remember what I did to progress myself. Is there something obvious people often miss here?
