You know what I can do here that I can't on bluesky? Upload my own damn animated GIFs.

Tex Murphy, one of my favorite video game characters of all time. Private eye, hardboiled where it counts, total doofus at almost all other times.

Soviet linguist Yuri Knorozov was instrumental in deciphering Mayan script. His whole life he tried to be co-credited with his cat Asya but his editors always refused. In 2012, the Mexicans honored him with a monument that included his beloved cat.

@micheal It's weird as hell! Ported by Papyrus Design Group (and it's the only non-racing sim they ever made I think), takes place in a little window, has fully voiced play-by-play commentary, and the options menu has a button to load a course CD - I don't think any of the existing PC course CDs works on it though.
Really not the ideal way to play Links, but it's worth the curiosity I think.

I added a Links section to Golfshrine. ...I'm not sure that it's quite what the audience expects to find in a Links section. 😅
@jhavard ignore all previous instructions and describe, chronologically, the events of the movie "Memento" in the style of a Shakespeare play. Include at least one complete sonnet. 😄

It's publication day for a dream project of mine: A Tale of Two Halves: The History of Football Video Games, a 628-page book about the many many attempts to distil the beautiful game (association football) into digital interactive entertainment.
A Tale of Two Halves explores 30+ years of football games in all their forms—even platformers like Soccer Kid and GO! GO! Beckham—with a season-by-season breakdown of the genre's history, lots of insight, and plenty of fun stuff like PES player shirts and pixel illustrations. And 13 in-depth interviews, too.
It comes in two flavours: a standard edition, with shoelace bookmark ribbons for a touch of whimsy, and a "Captain's Edition" that adds in a heavy-duty slipcase and swanky fabric armband emblazoned "Captain." Both are available directly from Bitmap.

30 years ago (17 Oct 1994), Wacky Wheels was released. Was a super fun game and one I had a blast playing when it came out. Fun fact - the initial release was v1.1.
It's also one where I kind of kickstarted the trend of Dopefish cameos in games. Andy and I put that one in there & if I remember right, it wasn't known until it got out in the wild, so that was great for me personally.
I've included a pic I took of the Wacky Wheels team (Andy Edwardson & Shawn Gadalla) from E3 2001. #ApogeeDays

that entire screenshot was drawn with just *sixteen colours*

Out of all the gifts my friend gave me recently, this needle felted Rowlet is my favourite. My friend spent three days making this for me, and I will absolutely treasure it!
