I decided I wanted the Berzerk Coleco ”Revival” tabletop to look more like the prototype presented in the 1982 Coleco catalog. I could really only keep it 1 player, but It looks GREAT now! (pre-mod image included)

Dad, jazz enjoyer, video game maker, baseball umpire, nerdy tinkerer. I made Tetris Time Warp, now available in Tetris Forever and on Netflix Games. I work for Digital Eclipse/Atari as a designer/engineer and I love/enjoy it.

@adriansdigitalbasement.com Was so impressed with your Intellivision repair video! Was curious: would you have any interest in taking a stab at repairing one of the rarest video game consoles in existence?
Of all the recent bad decisions I’ve made, arguing baseball rules on Facebook ranks in the top 3. Holy shit, it is an absolute mess.
I have a lot of jumping spiders in my house but I’m ok with that.
Imposter syndrome is a fear of being humiliated by your own, heaven forbid, confidence.
Tournament season around here! Nice to work in 4-man crews with my dudes. That's me on the right ready to work 1st base. I called abandonment in one of these games, which I may never get to call again. So weird.
Baseball is the perfect sport for ADHD people like me who can just watch a few highlights and feel like you watched the entire game.
A fairly pleasant evening to not be a Cubs fan, it seems.
Are there any Pesapallo video games, and why not?

So I'm trying to make a few extra bucks to put my kid through college, so here's Woah Dave! for Playdate! Coming Soon! It'll cost $50,000 a copy.

Boy, did I have a humbling evening umpiring behind the plate. Baseball has a way of doing that to everyone involved. An effective reminder that complacency is insidious.
I have decided to not play shortstop for the New York Yankees! I don’t have any time for that!!!!! Game Developer JASON CIRILLO
Trump: “I just cancelled the trip of my representatives going is Islamabad, Pakistan, to meet with the Iranians. Too much time wasted on traveling, too much work! Besides which, there is tremendous infighting and confusion within their ‘leadership.’ Nobody knows who is in charge, including them.”
Finally bought a Playdate console. I like this waaaay more than I ever imagined I would.
I deleted NextDoor, because I don't have any cats to loose, nor am I terrified of helicopters.
RIP John McSherry, MLB umpire gone 30 years today. A tragedy that was witnessed by many thousands as it happened live. www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0az...

I could see how My Mario would make tiny kids lose their minds. It’s a great time to be a toddler.
I always wondered what kinds of computers and software ran the game board on Tic Tac Dough in the 1980s. Here's a great article that explains it all, from @thestrongmuseum.bsky.social www.museumofplay.org/blog/apple-i...

This McDonald’s CEO shit is so cringe. My god, if this is entertaining, you need to rethink your priorities.
Umpired my first game of the season today, which turned into an almost 3-hour ordeal with extra innings and some crazy plays. Feels good to get back out there!
