New on the Secret Area: "Halo with chips" has been found.

A dumb back of the box quote from Maxim magazine promoting a poker video game had become a small meme. I wanted to find out where it came from.

fursona reveal!! 

Hey, remember when I was talking about wanting a cat fursona?

Well, thanks to a picrew, and a friend who was willing to help, it's now a reality.

Say hi to Tonya! She's soft, cuddly, and friendly!

Hi, if you're cis and wondering what to do for TDOV in this increasingly hostile environment where many of us are being attacked and treated like vermin, consider donating whatever you can spare to trans people so we can afford to survive right now, here's a good place to start if you can gofund.me/580dbcb4

Something I realized as I was playing through Hexen and the Deathkings of the Dark Citadel expansion: A good chunk of the game's levels are nice and symmetrical, almost like a multiplayer arena.

Suddenly I wonder if Hexen has (had?) a deathmatch scene...

I think it's time to post random game show music again

especially since I just saw the pilot of Jeopardy from 1977 and forgot it had this banger for closing theme song

Yesterday while checking a thrift store, I stumbled upon this

I cannot get away from this dumb little soundtrack, I swear to god

(I didn't buy it because I already have a copy, I don't need a sealed one.)

After a fairly mundane doctor's appointment, I decided to treat myself with a cinnabon and a few more goofy CDs and movies found at a thrift store

Sometimes it's those little things I find enjoyment in

more indie games should come out with "join the forums" rather than "join the discord"

The new version of the salesforce mascots looks like they were all kidnapped by Dr Robotnik

To quote David Letterman, I don't have a joke here: I just really like saying "Donald 'Duck' Dunn."

Show thread

Some of the things I watched today:

- A goofball kids game show with a host who has the most Larry Fine/Carrot Top hair I've ever seen
- A game show based off Mad Libs
- A "modern" take on Name that Tune
- That Donny Osmond Pyramid revival that wasn't great

Can you tell I'm a trash connoisseur? 😛

New Secret Area post: It's Shadowgrounds: Survivor.

Back in 2016, I wrote about Shadowgrounds, a fun little top-down horror/action shooter. Now in 2025, I finally play its sequel.

Likes, shares, and comments appreciated, as always.

Played a bit through Alien Breed: Impact and my god this feels generic and not very fun

Also it crashed on me like twice and had to use task manager to close it

The hunt for a good top-down shooter continues....
