if there's anything i've learned after 15 years in this goddamn city, it's that finding someone who isn't a scumbag or a liar is harder than finding a thimble, a clock, a hula hoop, an hourglass, a picture frame, a duvet cover, a cookie tin, a claw hammer, a basketball, a toothbr

DVDs aren't low-tech. They're just things you can actually own, that won't disappear overnight, that don't require a monthly subscription, that won't suddenly get reedited, that won't start putting adverts in the middle and that won't sell your data to the worst people in the world.

Something deep inside me told me I should draw Donkey Kong today.

A four panel comic titled "Hours, Bananas, Doors."
Donkey Kong awakens staring at himself in a mirror, then stares down at his hand as he notices a strange watch on his wrist.
Staring at his wrist, the watch turns out to be one of the numbered bracelets from 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors from the Zero Escape series. It's Junpei's bracelet. For some reason.
Peach then asks a confused Donkey Kong, "Donkey Kong? Have you ever heard of the Parallel Banana Theory?"

So this game called "Dverghold" came across my Steam homepage. Interesting retro vibes, apparently collabing with a dungeon synth artist for the OST. The art was kinda tickling my AI-dar though, so I scrolled down to look for any disclaimers.

there are eight draft designs here ranging from a flat square, a design that looks like an old stereo system, a flat curved edge design with a large circle on top, a "pod" design, an open carry case and a design that looks like a towering futuristic building (among others).

An unreleased Nintendo 64 game has been released today by Team Carrot. Kaminari no Gotoku: Choukousoku Igo by Seta is as you can guess from the screenshots a table Go game. This prototype build appears to be near final and can be fully played, as long as you have knowledge of Japanese and Go.

Sigma's head from Mega man X4 added over pixelart of an ankylosaurus, a four-legged dinosaur with a spiky back and a flat, club-like tail.

This frame I used from this sprite is SO freaking dopey looking. I had no choice but to use it, I loved it.

The artwork of Pac-Man by Hiro Kimura made for the #Atari2600 release which went unused for being "too ferocious". It's a total departure from the game but also a really cool and goofy piece. Still a bit cropped on the bottom. Usual upscale/clean/retouch process applied.

Pac-Man unused clean artwork by Hiro Kimura made for the Atari 2600 release. Still a bit cropped on the bottom. Image depicts a human like Pac-Man running scared while grabbing and munching on rectangular pellets while ferocious Kaiju looking ghost chase him with huge open mouths filled with sharp teeth where the red one can be seen drooling. There's a blue sky with some clouds on the background and a little frog hoping on the bottom right corner.
