Love @mrrickygervais.bsky.social we've seen him live a few times now! With all the doom and gloom in the world we have to support great comedy or we'll lose it. #comedy #legend My bruv does standup too and is supporting Russell Kane on tour with his double act! #HallsOfTheRidiculous

This was the prototype for the first Baby-Man game. It was originally going to be called Little Sh*tler but we decided to make it family friendly! Swapping bullets for Professor P's Patented Mood Mash and a squirty gun.

The new copy of Crash magazine arrived with a glowing review of Babyman VS Terminatots Pt1 You can buy the games over at puttycad.itch.io The game was written by Nigel Critten in MPAGD with gfx by myself as usual. Works on original hardware and emulators. Enjoy!

We had a road trip accross the pennines to Chorley on Saturday. We finally got to see the comedy legend John Shuttleworth (OOF!) He was absolutely brilliant! His merch was even funny! I bought his book and a wooden spoon (?) which he signed! Top man! #johnshuttleworth #oof #raisetheoof #legend

Despite Amazon constantly mucking about with the prices I'm still selling a few Retro Jotters... Can you guess which ones are the most popular?

Was looking through old things again... I think this was reviewed in a very early issue of Retro Gamer mag. #pottypigeon #retroremake They seemed to prefer the original but it was really fun to make this with me old pal Geekay. I put a few extra Gremlin Graphics characters in the background too.

I'd have gone with something like this. The guy on the left is a sausage riding a sausage because I'm not too well versed with the kirby racing games.

With the success of the NEXT kickstarter we're thinking we should convert our speccy games to it. Here's a mockup of Babyman 1 I did a while ago...

Could something like this be hacked to run homebrew speccy games? You can pick these up for less than a tenner in most supermarkets.

I often wonder what a modern Monty Mole game would be like. I helped out at the Games Britannia educational festival with some actual Ex-Gremlins and came up with these designs. I imagined old Monty coming back home to pass on the baton to his kids. #fanart #montymole #gremlingraphics #zxspectrum

Was just looking through some old folders and found these screenshots. This was a remake of Automania from the speccy with a little twist for the Retro Remakes competition way back. I used "The Games Factory" to make the game and Flash to do the art.

On the UK Games slack group it lets you make custom animated emojis. Couldn't resist making a tiny Donkey Kong one :D
