Yes, it runs Doom. It also runs Arduboy games and a cursed GB emulator.

Just in case you didn't know ModRetro fucking sucks and "Automated War Initiative" is a disgusting title Also, War Crime Enthusiast Palmer Luckey is incredibly thin skinned and will chase you around various social media platforms if you talk sauce about him and his shitty M64. Worth it.

FB comment:

Palmer Luckey: Mike Fink the M64 is $230 not $320 and it is far more powerful than the Mister. We developed our own core and open sourceed all the hardware and software

And Aduril helps kill Russians, not children

Me: Palmer Free Luckey that's without the controller, not included, which is $90

And also fuck you

We still clown on you with memes
Palmer Luckey and is shit handheld emulator, along with other fascists that don't care about human life, like Elon Musk and JD Vance

Was just thinking about this game last night! Looking forested to playing it. Enjoying Dread Delusion right now. Love the aesthetic of both these games.

Don’t call layoffs and closures stuff like “reset” or “refresh” or “rejuvenation” or “rejigger” or “reshuffle” unless you’re trying to get clapped.

Unorganized gaming thoughts: Really want to play more Slay the Spire 2. I have unlocked almost everything with The Defect 😅 I’ll return to Diablo IV for Season 15, been hearing great things about it. I started Halo Campaign Evolved and need to finish it. I also need to continue my bingo card!

It's wild to me that in this overt push to digital games, publishers aren't trying to make sure digital games go on sale as often and as deeply as physical ones. Like I get why — there's no overcrowding or scarcity on digital shelves. But it seems like an easy lie to tell before you pull the rug.

I’m assuming a delay like this means they’re trying to get the full completed game on-disc as opposed to a coaster requiring a day one patch to function. I’m very fine with that option for the disc version to be complete.

An enormous congratulations to each and every developer that worked with me on Strange Scaffold's very first driving game. (I'll tag them throughout the day.) This was one of the most challenging games that I've ever made, but I'm grateful for all of these talented devs for sticking the landing <3

My “Gaming Bingo” card is complete! Sometimes it is just so dang overwhelming with a large backlog, I hope this helps keep me focused. Excited to try some new stuff and finish a few games I previously started. I’ll likely start with a couple of the shorter games on here. Might finally start my blog!

Has anyone ever done “Gaming Bingo”, in the vein of “Book Bingo”? Each square is filled with the title of a book(/game) that fits a certain criteria. I found someone that made some but looking for more suggestions to fill out a 5x5!

𝙔𝙤𝙟𝙞 𝙎𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠𝙖𝙬𝙖 𝙞𝙣𝙨𝙥𝙞𝙧𝙚𝙙 𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝙨𝙩𝙮𝙡𝙚 Trance Kuja - Final Fantasy IX #FFIX #FinalFantasy9 #FF9 Commission for @marcodmeatball.bsky.social

Trance Kuja is one of the characters in Final Fantasy IX, being the second form to regular Kuja. He is holding two orbs of energy, one in each hand. His head is facing us, while his body slightly faces off to our right, giving a 3/4 or diagonal view of his body. His body is covered in sharp feathers, that are almost scale-like in appearance, in place of actual clothing. He has a tail flowing behind him. What seems to be ripped cloth hangs from his waist line, aside from the front. His forearms are surrounded by what look like more cloth wraps, swirling and spiralling outwards towards the end of his arms like tornadoes. I don't know the character myself, so they might actually be little tornadoes of wind magic.

I have drawn him in my abstract style heavily inspired by Yoji Shinkawa, artist and designer of the Metal Gear series, amongst others. The style focuses on use of extreme values in black and white to create shape, energy and motion on the page.

I played this beginning to end with two buds and we had an absolute blast. It’s a miracle we got this game, it could’ve been lost to time after the MMO version failed. Instead it got saved as single player/co-op. I’ll always appreciate that we got Wayfinder in some form, it is a special game to me.
