reminds me of the time videogame music legend hirokazu tanaka (hip tanaka) gathered a bunch of people also named hirokazu tanaka to sing a song about how they share the same name. it's probably the best video on youtube? youtu.be/mpGVw07nOE4

went down a rabbit hole earlier and learned that in 1995 CBS had two animated shows based on jim carrey movies. and they did a crossover between them where they do not adapt to the other's animation style whatsoever. what was in the water back then

shot from "The Aceman Cometh" episode of The Mask: Animated Series. Ace Ventura and The Mask are both pointing with their right hand, with the other on their hip. I guess they're dancing? I'm not going to watch the show to find out

Generally I’m not very active on Bluesky, but this was such an incredible watch I have to recommend to all… um… wait let me see… 36 of my followers! Expressed a lot of the stuff I think Deltarune does well thematically- and way smarter than I ever could!

new Deltarune video! it's about metamodernism, and the way oscillation runs through the whole game. that sounds like nonsense probably, but it'll make sense when you watch it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXdn...

I wrote this a while ago and forgot to publish it. who designed the NEO body in Deltarune? I think it was Alphys, an opinion that some other Deltarune fans seem to bristle at. a nice, low stakes post for a Saturday: thebeesknee.substack.com/p/alphys-des... #deltarune

I don't usually like to be a live action adaptation hater, I feel like there's often a lot of interesting possibilities to explore creatively when switching from animation to live action so having said that, believe me when I say adapting champloo is a bad idea and will inevitably suck shit

on a first playthrough, dogma into beast is a really powerful progression imo. tboi has always had this push and pull between the high concept struggles isaac faces via his relationship with religion and the more grounded issues with his parents. dogma (religion) and beast (mom). they do complement.

it's a great joy when someone articulates something you've thought about but never put into words. I should not have to do legwork to figure out whether your game is a sequel to a game I've never heard of, or just a game with an unnecessarily long title!

Keep thinking about this term "pre-digested" that Kojima used to describe art that's instantly gratifying. And how it's better when people grow to love something instead. I've gravitated, as player and designer, toward the latter, but that term "pre-digested" is new and feels very strong.

And he said, "If everyone likes it, it means it's mainstream. It means it's conventional. It means it's already pre-digested for people to like it. And I don't want that. I want people to end up liking things they didn't like when they first encountered it, because that's where you really end up loving something."

I took my time with it, but I'm happy to say I beat Death Stranding 2 today. so much to say about it, so many emotions, but man I love this game. I'm glad kojima is still doing his thing, however insane it can be at times. I'll make a video talking about the game in more depth at some stage.

it's been a long time since I saw Howl's Moving Castle, but I think it's the Ghibli film that sticks with me the most visually. it's not even close to my favorite Ghibli! but its imagery is burned into my brain, and I'm okay with that. I love the way it feels, above all else.

I could never sum up the impact undertale made in such a small number of characters - but I did my best! it's a videogame which changes the way you think about videogames. it has stayed with me over the past decade, and I'll wager it'll stay with me throughout the next decade, too. happy 10 years :)
