Richard B. Gray - LEVELORD 11/15/1957 - 10/12/2026 Just heard the news that an old friend of mine has passed on. Richard Gray - aka Levelord has departed the planet. I know he's dealt with cancer on and off for awhile now, a word that I cannot stand. Word comes from his wife Olga.

The Building Blocks of Tactical Espionage Action! In a big feature on Metal Gear Solid in November 1997's issue, GameFan magazine revealed that Hideo Kojima and Yoji Shinkawa used Lego to first build and test area layouts before moving to computer modelling.

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...
A casual Star Wars alien fella at the cantina, in a sun faded, reddish photo. Someone will be mad at me for not knowing who this is. Phil, a balding Caucasian man, poses a model of the garthok, an antagonist from the Coneheads movie.Phil, a balding caucasian man, points at some CG on a CRT computer monitor, as a younger man looks on. The screen shows a model of a dinosaur attacking a jeep, while there's an actual physical model of that event in the foreground for reference.an isolated shot of a star wars vehicle. Sorry, I don't know star wars lol

Crime Crackers's main dialog proportional font is fully working! Haven't settled on an actual font yet and the text isn't final by any means, but it's working :) @rahanakero.bsky.social (who did Splatterworld) has translated all of Act 1 so far!
Crime Crackers memory card screen. The dialog text says "If you're starting fresh, then select NEW GAME. Otherwise, choose a file!" NEW GAME is highlighted in yellow.Crime Crackers story screen. Emilia on the top of the screen is saying "Phew, it's been nothing but work lately, huh? Hey, guys... Don't you wanna take a break soon?" Parrot on bottom of the screen is saying "Oh, that would be splendid. Us old-timers aren't supposed to work this hard, you know."Another story screen. Emilia is saying "Set a course for the Bolero! Trace that SOS, full speed ahead!" The other character (whose name I'm not sure we've settled on yet) is saying "Aww, but I was gonna go shopping..."Action screen. Emilia is saying "Okay, team! If we take out the pirates' leader, they'll scatter like rats!" One of the other characters is mid-blink and looks quite smug.
