Honestly, it's rather surreal to hear these characters speak full sentences after years of short voice clips.

don't personally own a PS5 but it seems like the end times for physical media are upon us.... only a matter of time before nintendo follows suit....

like, i honestly agree with a lot of the criticisms (it is a TERRIBLE adaptation of the galaxy games) but i liked it for what it was. fox was probably the best part

I do want to sincerely apologize for this, I remember spelling your name wrong several times back when we first got into contact...

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 07/03/2026

For context, we were in a relationship for several months back in 2022 and he tested a few of my games. The guy is an absolute CREEP and I'm disgusted that my work ever had his name attached to it.

Sharing this as I have experienced this behavior firsthand and know multiple others who also have.

yahoo! the virtual boy is now working. my eyes are on fire.

A picture of the game Mario's Tennis, as seen through one of the Virtual Boy's lenses. The characters Yoshi and Mario are facing off in a tennis match.

got the replacement. the virtual boy turns on, but it unfortunately has no image. guess i'm gonna have to get it fixed...

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 14/01/2026

getters and setters used to bother me a lot for this reason. usually it's set up like this to prevent programmers from breaking things in certain objects.

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 13/01/2026

unfortunately the battery pack is super corroded... just ordered a replacement

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 13/01/2026

i bought a fucking virtual boy.

A Virtual Boy, its controller, and three games: Teleroboxer, Galactic Pinball, and Mario's Tennis.

Thank you for everything, James.

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 11/10/2025

so essentially, whatever speed value you provide is "this is how far this object can move in a second"

000

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 11/10/2025

0.8 doesn't seem right for delta.... essentially delta is the time (in seconds) between _physics_process calls. essentially, if the object's speed is 60 and _physics_process is called 60 times a second, then the object should move by 1 every function call.

100

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 10/10/2025

what function are you using to move objects? is it move_and_slide()?

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 29/09/2025

please get some sleep!!!!

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 10/09/2025

controllers aren't oem, but it came with the expansion pak, so i'd say it was a pretty good deal

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 19/08/2025

"we've added a second button, unfortunately" is the realest thing sakurai has ever said

010

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 03/08/2025

I do think it's unfortunate that pretty much every modern controller is pigeonholed into being the same layout with minor changes... most platform-specific controller quirks tend to go underutilized since developers want to support as many platforms as possible

010

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 03/08/2025

In a vacuum it's a perfectly fine button layout, you just need to design the game around it. Of course, that was a bit of a problem when the other two systems at the time used the traditional diamond layout.

A physical copy of Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble for the Nintendo Switch.

water is the practical choice, but assuming that's off the table.... i'll take infinite dr pepper

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 01/07/2025

does it seriously not run well??? store page doesn't say anything on compatibility

000

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 26/06/2025

with regards to the recent mario kart world update- how did it seriously never occur to nintendo that some people might prefer to play the classic three lap format online? utterly bone headed move

fair enough, just trying to help out

I *believe* Notepad++ allows for custom syntax highlighting, someone's probably already made one you can import

^ i can personally vouch for this person

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 07/04/2025

true. there's a couple steam games where I went out of my way to get every achievement for them. to me it's more of a "nice-to-have", not really essential

000

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 07/04/2025

meh, frankly i'm pretty indifferent to achievements on switch. most of the time they don't really do much for me.

000

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 04/04/2025

...y'know, a steam deck is looking REALLY good right now

010

Bluswimmer @bluswimmer.com · 30/03/2025

There's no sound and the graphics are total crap, but I'd say this was a pretty successful weekend project. Might work on it more later

I made a port of Activision's "Kaboom!" to Playdate
