That's incredibly sad. I discovered John Blanche through his incredible unforgettable work on the Sorcery FF series. When I do draw (which is rarely) I still can't help but channel his twisted visions. What a legacy.

The only way I'll ever feel comfortable asking an AI assistant for help is if it happens entirely on my device. I don't want to worry about burning down a forest or polluting a river each time I ask it to add milk to the shopping list.

I bought a Samsung S26 last month. Using it has been the most miserable tech experience I've had for a decade. Google and Samsung are actively at war fighting over assistants, wallets and shopping lists. Each is actively sabotaging the other. I tried and failed. Bring on the Steam phone.

The Steam launch of Little Things has been a little frustrating. 500 wishlists with a 30% conversion is excellent!! But so far I've only had ONE review. 🦉 Little Things needs TEN reviews to get unburied. Did you play it this week? I'd love a review from you if you can spare the time.

With 17 year hindsight I realised that the "sneaker" stage was too difficult have for first time users. Problem was I now needed to do a sneaker jigsaw puzzle. So this is the first Little Things art I've done for MANY years!

Today was "run the game on every device I have in the house" day. The game is 99% complete! Just have to create trailers for both games, 4 aspect ratios and 20 languages. Good news is I have a script for that. Also Steam hidden object fest is on April 10? Yikes that'll be tight. #godot

Skylanders (and specifically Swap Force) felt like video game magic. 15 years later, I'm still nostalgic for those little pieces of plastic. I wish that Activision had treated the franchise with more care.

Ironic, as this was the magazine that referred to Pokémon as a "pestilential Ponzi scheme" in 1999, characterising its creator Satoshi Tajiri as a literal monster "His eyes are bloodshot; dark circles ripple beneath them... His monsters are a child's predelictions." He never gave another interview.

The Atari 2600 gaming console came into the world in 1977 powered by an eight-bit processor that ran at 1.19MhZ, and just 128 bytes of RAM – but that’s apparently enough power to beat ChatGPT at chess.

So says infrastructure architect Robert Caruso, who over the weekend posted the results of an experiment he conducted to “pit ChatGPT against the Atari 2600’s chess engine (via Stella emulator) and see what happens.”
