I'm very please to announce a public release of my drag-and-drop bookmarking, game-making, and wandering tool Scrubjay! Scrubjay is a weird website builder that lets you cobble together web elements, images, links, text fragments, etc into a series of nested rooms...

"SCRUBJAY" sits over a bunch of images of frogs, birds, doors. it's a very 90s look

I've been less excited about AAA games than ever, and the studios firing the people who work on them doesn't help in getting me exciting to buy one.

A new tactical combat game for #msdos has been released! #StarCadre Team Command puts you in charge of a squad of elite operatives in the far future, conducting special missions on behalf of an interstellar civilisation. Get it from cyningstan.itch.io/star-cadre-t... #ibmpc #cga

A collage of screenshots of Star Cadre: Team Command against a background image. The background images shows the K-53 modified fighter craft in the foreground, that takes the away team on their missions, on a landing pad beside its hangar, with planting around, a city scape behind, mountains in the far distance. The screenshots are all in 4-colour CGA. They include: the title screen which is a 4-colour version of the background image, a mission taking place in an industrial complex, and the personnel screen where a new recruit is being added to the team.

I never had a console growing up, until I got an Xbox 360 when I was already in my 20s. So I never really knew just how much cool & out-there stuff there is on platforms like the PS2. My impression was that it's dominated by boring mainstream AAA stuff, but there's actually a lot of creativity!

I was playing Wreckfest on a clean server again, as I do, but since it's public there are usually one or two people who don't understand the mission. Someone behind me clipped this bit where someone tried to take me out (I'm in the green wagon) but it didn't work out for them lol

We had way too many chili peppers from the garden this year, so I made sambal! It's an Indonesian hot sauce and it turned out plenty hot alright lol 🥵😅

Choppping up the chili peppers and putting them in a bowl, alongside some onions and garlic

I'm usually a pretty lenient guy who doesn't get upset easily. But I can't get over these elevator controls in Tex Murphy: the Pandora Directive (our DOS Game Club game of the month). I mean... the button for 1st floor is at the top? And 2nd floor at the bottom?? Wtf??? #dosGaming

Screenshot of Tex Murphy: the Pandora Directive, where I'm currently standing inside an elevator that has buttons labeled "1" and "2" for first and second floor respectively, but the 1 button is at the top and the 2 button is at the bottom.
