I really wasn't sure if TrueVision3D games would work in this day and age... but it looks like DirectX 9 is still alive and kicking in 2026! 🎉

First up, Trouble In Euclidea (2008), my first proper game. I've rebuilt it from source, made it look nicer for higher resolutions than 720p, added stereo sound, fixed the game flow a little bit... it's still pretty fun!

I've started a project : making a multi-cart kinda collection of all the game jam games and other small projects I've worked on over the last ... 18 years? It's going to be a long endeavour, if only because a lot of those don't work very well on modern systems. I'm enjoying it though!

I'm super excited to announce my favorite VR game in the world, SUPERHYPERCUBE, has been ported to the Playstation®VR2, by… ~me, actually~ (with support from the original developers)! It is currently half off if you owned the PS VR1 version. If anyone you know has a PS VR2, please let them know!

This feels like his 2016 album "Don't Be Anxious", but rather "Just let the anxiety wash over you"

wow... huh... the techy cover art and cloud theme did NOT prepare me for how much this sounds like the end of the world. It starts with a quiet hum and build up to an overwhelming wall of a million layers of sines and reverb, sometimes it feels like a whole orchestra. I'm only halfway, too!!

This Modeselektor song has such a huge @littlescale.bsky.social vibe, I had to check whether it was actually one of his tracks! In any case, love it & anything that reminds of me of little-scale 😌 modeselektor.bandcamp.com/track/tekk-p...

Every year I grow a little more cynical about GDC, or at least... I've done my time. I don't need to spend the time and money and fly to the US for this. And then I see the winners for the Alt Ctrl GDC award and I'm like... god DAMNIT. I wish I could have a drink with these dorks.

That was a reallllllly enjoyable IGF awards ceremony, @karriebear.bsky.social knocked it out of the park. So many interesting games, so many good folks. Warms my heart and rekindles my love for games.

Sometimes... I wonder about the state of Burrito Galaxy and Memory of a Broken Dimension. I feel like it's my duty to throw screenshots into the ether and show how neat they looked, when I do.

wow huh… it’s very trippy to listen to @disasterpeace.bsky.social ‘s score for It Follows for the first time. It fits the movie super well but it’s also very familiar, like it’s from an alternate reality

AlphaPhoenix's latest video on ultra-high-speed recording of light travel is incredible, and you should watch it if you care about quirks of measurement at nano time scales, really good physics vulgarization or just want to see lasers hitting disco balls in slow-mo👏👏 www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4Td...

It has JUST the right amount of metagame sidequest map-marker type things to keep the loop interesting, the world/writing/characters/bike parts have a generous dash of surrealist humor that makes it recognizable as "oh yeah it's from the Nidhogg people", it looks clean and feels fantastic 👌

@despelote.game has so much charm, it’s absolutely worth your time. The voice performances have such a unique feel! The visual style is a fresh, cahotic mess, and I dig it. It’s personal, heartfelt, doesn’t overstay its welcome. A+++ would kick various objects around leisurely again. 🫶
