Cantankerous old man not mine…sorry. Sleep is hard and so is writing haha

Also finally got around to playing Sand Land. And I have thoughts. But I think it boils down to…do you like the manga? And looking for a super cool chill time vibe? Cause you got it here. It’s not particularly difficult or deep. But it’s charming and enjoyable even if clunky at times.

Having a baby is wild. lol this 7 lb cantankerous old mine is under my jurisdiction? I’m in a weird video game. But I do love this little goblin. It’s wild though. Definitely rewrote some brain chemistry.

Constantly have to remind myself that the creative process is a process and takes time. The age of A1 has warped expectations regardless the output… No A1 here…just slow paced experimentation. But it’s hard to not feel like I’m falling behind…behind what? Dumb expectations I’ve put on myself? Ugh

I cannot remember the dev or the game…but someone was making a 2D platformer with a small black bird with a red cape I think? It had some amazing pixel art especially for the bird…help me find it…I tried creeping on the dreaded other site…but I’d love to follow the dev and the project. Halp.

Update. I have no idea. Everything seems fine? And connected and seen? Also for clarity one of the cats weeks ago attacked my cold brew and got coffee all over my desk and goofed the keyboard a little so it gets sassy sometimes but still working for now…

When you’re going to the bathroom and you hear your computer make a bunch of usb disconnect sounds… Is he keyboard sassy or did everything fail at once… TBD. I’m in a very vulnerable position right now.

Bummer. Really tried to get the Goblinstorm Secret Lair release today and it sold out while I was still in the queue 10 minutes out… Alas…the goblins elude me. I hope people who wanted it got it instead of resellers…

I’ve taken all CDs away (except one) from Rotom in Pokopia. Because they’re a menace. Rotom can only play Pallet town cause Rotom doesn’t know how to match vibes.

Not me thinking Pokopia has Professor T dying… I thought they were sleepy all the time but I was just playing at night… No spoilers yall. But my god I was worried…I was like WHY ARE THEY SO TIRED??!?!

OK Retro @okretrozone.bsky.social · 17/04/2026

Yall. Pokopia truly is so special. I was hesitant to move from locations but it does unlock so much. I have no idea how far I am but I’m not playing efficiently…& I love that. The only stress I feel is whatever I impose on myself trying to make the resources I need to start a building before bed.

Descent of Lunaris has first-person and tactical combat encounters. Here's is a screenshot of the Panoptes fight (of just 1 of the boss fights in the demo). Did you know you can rotate, zoom and move the camera during these fights? Show us what you're working on too below #ScreenshotSaturday

Transfer Point is a point-and-click adventure game for Macintosh. It was made in World Builder and MacPaint, and it fits on an 800K floppy disk. It also has an egret. Coming soon for most web browsers, or as a download to play on your classic Mac. robotspacer.software/transfer-poi... #MARCHintosh

Whatever this graphics crap is that’s going around is so stupid and truly unsustainable…I just imagine if the player moves the whole screen breaks and looks datamoshed. Let’s return to the whimsy of 90s video game aesthetics. Realism isn’t escapism…let me live in Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon.
