Almost mid September, 45 minutes past midnight and still 85F. It is about time this summer ended.

Hitting the upstairs kitchen for a light snack at 2am and realizing that this may become an issue at some point...

We broke our June record in South Western Germany today with 41.3C (106F). Unfortunately we still don't have AC and the good thing is: tomorrow will be warmer 😬

If you haven't looked at this game, do it now. This man has distilled the essence of golden age arcade mechanics and serves it to you on a silver platter. Go for 5,000,000.

Tibor's entire catalogue is on sale. Extra careful with They came from the Sky 2, that thing will eat your time.

I open the door slowly, slipping inside. I keep a measured pace, breathing evenly, keeping my heartbeat low. Five steps, ten steps; I begin to relax. A voice calls from behind me, ”Sir?” I ignore it. “Sir, what’s that in your pants?” I walk faster. “Someone stop that man!” I run.

I tried playing Earthion today with an almost fully paralyzed stick hand and what can I say.. you definitely -can- die on stage 1.

I'm typically not too vocal about the games I actually do buy, but Earthion is an exception. store.steampowered.com/app/3597580/...

@fobti.bsky.social by the way, if you ever get around to having a couple of free minutes.. it would be cool to have a linux version of space bubbles. The new C3 CEF exports typically work flawlessly.

Pet peeve of mine.. when you finally clear an arcade game, and get the glorious ending sequence.. and the credits.. and then you still get the regular game over screen. Not all games do this, but those that do have a place in hell waiting for them 😚

Quote with a title screen that is iconic to you. It was the system seller for me, bought an Amiga because of this port.

The signs started appearing for those who could see. Lonesome George, the last of his species, met his demise.

Fashionable monkeys roamed furniture stores. 

It was the beginning of The End.

This account was dormant for a year, maybe it's time to wake it up. Hi, I sometimes develop games (used to do that for a living, but that was 25 years ago), mostly of the oldschool variety. Nice to meet you.
