The stairwell down to the vault level has a unique hanging garden theme, but be cautious of the tight spaces and peeping watchdogs. #gloomwood

Modern Quake - even vanilla-limits, software-compatible stuff - is helped a ton by the editing and compiling tools, not just in terms of ease of use and iteration time, but in making things possible that weren't before. That's not to praise Sandy's aesthetics; id's other designers did much better.

Rotational symmetry is so fun to work with but it's way too easy to accidentally make a swastika.

Been a while since I'd painted anything, but since my modeling skills have gotten far better as well I wanted to try a previous print again. Modelled and painted a 3D rendition of the Quake nailgun ammo box! It'll be a desk ornament just like the old one, but this one looks heaps better. #miniatures

Idk who still needs to hear this but Makkon's textures have more variety in colour and patterns than you could ever need, in a bunch of fully-realised themes. These commercial license terms are also extremely generous. Furthermore, just look at them!

the modern conception of games as an experience you're trying to experience full immersion with have decimated simple concepts such as "taking notes" or "drawing a map"

While 'throwing a motherfucker at another motherfucker' is the coolest way to fight in videogames, Sprawl Zero does understand that the next-funniest option is hucking at a gun at someone's face so hard they immediately die, and drop another gun to throw at the next guy.

The future of this franchise is really funny, because after the upcoming remake they're doing a *sequel* to Underworld, which was in the same (already messy timeline-wise) trilogy as this older remake I played through said trilogy last year and had fun. Underworld still looks pretty great at times!

+1 for White Knuckle. I haven't played in a while because I'd rather wait for something resembling a complete game, but from what I've seen there are now lots of opportunities to save progress so having to restart is more of a tension-adding threat and you can mostly play it like a normal campaign.

h4724.bsky.social @h4724.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

Spelunky 2 is fantastic and can feel like fresh air when you're sick of other roguelikes, but I would not recommend it to someone who hates the permadeath aspect. I've never really tried it with shortcuts, but it still makes you work for them so I doubt it changes the experience fundamentally.

I can completely understand how games like Campaign Evolved come to be. You watch someone playing the game, and if they don't immediately understand something it feels REALLY BAD to watch that happen. Designers need to hold back on acting on that impulse though, otherwise you ruin the illusion.
