so, i packaged a big Google Drive folder with videos and gifs of everything i had worked on up to that point, as well as a big text document that outlined everything i was planning to do and asking permission to change from stock. including the Groove System. in fact, it was the first thing there!
Text from Apple’s Notes app, a straight copy and paste of the first few paragraphs off the text file I sent to Kart Krew’s Velocitoni and, per his word, was forwarded to the other developers.

“Ring Racers: D.U.S.T.
Alternative Gameplay Overhaul

Groove System:
Players now must choose between two evenly matched gameplay styles, or "Grooves" before selecting their character.

- K-Groove channels collected rings into a low-power boost mode, allowing for greater drift charges and boosts: Stronger fundamental driving overall at the cost of flexibility and lower defenses. Rings serve exclusively to fill the boost mode timer, and do not payout any form of traditional Ring Boost.
- R-Groove allows the player to manually spend rings with their own dedicated button, allowing for extremely granular control in all facets of play. It also grants access to the Insta-Whip at any time when not carrying an item.”

For the curious, these are mostly still accurate but K-Groove’s ring rules have changed a smidge.

Alright so i’ve been pretty coy about it publicly (because i really just wanna finish the damn thing) but i’ve been working on a Ring Racers overhaul mod for just about 2 and a half years now i’ve had this mechanic as a core feature implemented since August of 2024.

sign you gotta be fucking kidding me dog thread time!

The cursor is hovered over a choice labeled “Manual”, showing the “R” from the Ring Racers logo, and providing logos showing the benefits of using said playstyle.Screenshot from a new Ring Racers teaser video, showing a menu labeled “Groovebox”.

guilty as charged, it’s how i learned about you. it’s a wonderfully iconic look, was a blast seeing you at MAGfest! if i can make one halloween suggestion… imagine…
The Marvel character “8-Ball”, utilizing a billiards cue as a weapon. It’s a black skin-tight suit with white forearm length gloves and white calf high boots. He wears a giant billiards 8 ball over his head, with no clear way to see out of it.

Surely they could never bring him to the MCU… right…?

yeah.
If the intention truly is targeting the parent's ability to monitor and curate what their child may see, I cannot help but observe how bafflingly tone deaf of an approach it is. Especially in a modern world, where many negligent parents leave their children with phones, tablets, and other relatively unrestricted access to all manners of content with few verifiable ways to rate or curate it, it seems pretty clear that the responsibility of handling this problem should properly be the responsibility of the parent, not the platforms the content is hosted on or their creators. If the parent is unable to make the time or effort to take on such responsibility, I think it is safe to say that the source of this problem may lie within the living circumstances of said parents, and may be reflective of a larger issue with the living conditions of being a citizen in America.

This only serves to discriminate against and further de-normalize people who are not cisgender, it's incredibly small-minded and has no part in a country who claims to be free and to promote freedom for its people. These warnings are not being suggested to protect children, they exist to further suppress the existence of any person not conforming to their assigned gender or heterosexual orientation and to prevent the normalization of non-traditionally conforming people, which I can only see as a way to enforce bigoted beliefs. These warnings do not need to be put into place.

Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers. these two, until the end of time. i love art.
A poster for the game "Zineth" by Arcane Kids.

The artwork features the main character, a small man in cowboy-esque attire piloting a sit of larger robotic limbs. The angle views him from slightly below as he roller skates through the desert sand, leaving dust rolling in his wake, approaching a cliff while the sun beams down from above the game's logo.A screenshot of the alpha version of "Perfect Stride" by Arcane Kids.

The map features a series of structures in the ocean, all depicted in a low detail polygonal style.
The screenshot has an overlay of the game's central HUD, and is taken at a point in the map where the words "Perfect Stride" are visible above a building.

i actually went to get it repaired because i went and got the FXPak. i probably need to give it another look but when i did run it, it just gave me weird tiles like so. i couldn’t manage my way into any roms i had on it but even then i’m not sure i’d be able to see them lol will test again though

I do not really think I can summarize Undertale's impact on me in the size of an old tweet, so this may become a small thread. Thank you for making such a beautiful game.
* I feel UNDERTALE has been the cultural glue of the video game world during its lifetime. I hold the memories it brought me very dear, and I hope it continues to inspire for years.

Quote with your fanart! Somehow this old ass sketch is probably the best fanart of anything i have lol
Welltaro from Downwell busting through a ceiling, shooting the "Triple" module from his gunboots. Bricks break away from the ceiling from the force of impact. He falls into The Keep of the Lead Lord from Enter the Gungeon, as marked more definitively by the tapestry visible on a wall. The shots from Welltaro's gunboots are seen flying towards The Bullet (as in, the playable character), who is alert with his sword, Blasphemy, upon his back. Presumably, a sick One Minute Melee styled fight ensues.

I drew this many years ago before having played enough Gungeon to know that the gunboots were in it... here's hoping for The Bullet making his way into Fraymakers so this can become a reality! :)

i don’t really know why but i’m obsessed with the tone of how she says this it’s so protective but it’s not commanding. every once and a while “Stay low” will play in my mind and i’ll forget where it’s from, i’m so glad i could remember tonight
