The Greggs Semiotic Standard. The icons from a Greggs paper bag that tell you what the markings on bakes mean, redrawn in a way inspired by the icons from Ron Cobb's Semiotic Standards for the Alien films.

I'm sure you've been following the development of GT2 Beige Edition with keen interest.

Heh, I was just rewatching Matt McM's vid on his dream MvC roster where he puts over Beta Ray Bill as one of his deeper cuts.

It was a very late PS1 title (2000) and the third in the series. I daresay no-one knew the hardware better at that point than Psygnosis. @seanseanson.bsky.social 's vid on their PS1 catalogue shocked me with just how prolific they were.

I'm just happy to see another Atlus rep, and while I was hoping for one or more of the Jack Bros how can one be mad at Aigis?

Some of them were also tied to Live Selection picks if I recall, so a replay where you chose different paths would be guaranteed to surprise you.

Gradient skies and dithered poly choppers. Released late in the Amiga's life in 1995: Bitfusion and Empire Interactive's arcade flight sim Coala. These kind of polygon graphics always feel quite familiar for flight sims as they were the only kind I saw until the PlayStation.

"Cute Name, Deadly Weapon" sadly there's no campaign so it's sandbox missions, but it's a technical marvel.

My first attempt I went right and died in the graveyard, second attempt I got to Capra and wasn't having fun, so I can be a bit cynical on the series. That said I loved Sekiro, and Miyazaki has said he'd love to do an Escalfowne-styled game, which would be like Frame Gride I guess?

There's certainly some fondness for the N64, but it wasn't a huge seller in the UK, the PS1 destroyed all-comers. I've always thought that the home micros added an older skew, which is why EU PS1 is so strongly tied to the club scene of the era. Also made for some banger OSTs.

It's why I feel gaslit when I see the NES as a mascot for retro games here, the thing didn't come out until 1987 and sold rather poorly. It was home micros and Segas.

Indeed, even well into the 16-bit era the SMS did well as it was cheap and still getting games due to the long tail across the continent. I knew kids here who'd never get a Mega Drive who had SMS2s, and some of those late titles like Land of Illusion were pretty good.

I recently replayed it, and it feels like it's fighting the machine all the way through, but also I had no tenkey (today or in the day on my A600). It's an interesting contrast with Colononization, which is a Workbench app.

I think the only game of theirs I had was Metal Mutant. It's very French, the artist appears to be one Jean-Christophe Charter.

Indeed, while I don't drive I took the advice of some YouTuber and replaced a gas stove and combi-boiler with induction and a heat pump. This has already helped insulate me from shocks even when our electricity prices are gas-indexed to encourage renewables (🇬🇧).

If Nintendo won't make another one they should let Sega do it again, they already made the best one (from a certain perspective).

Whenever I see those two all I can think of are these two @florkofcows.bsky.social comics
Two men in hard hats with moustaches are speaking
1: Welcome to the first meeting of the elf hating club
1: Rule 1, we hate all elves
2 [imagining a dreamy Deedlit]: except Deedlit right
2: Yes... all elves except Deedlit...A boss is speaking to a coder, working at his computer
Boss: Hows coding on the project going?
Coder: I made a perfect AI chatbot of Pirotess from lodoss war and she loves me and shes kinky.
Boss: thats not what we pay you for..
Coder: If you take this away from me im shooting myself in the dead.

Seems the Amiga was 4-key rollover, so that might be an issue. We did find in the US Gold SFII port (which did have KB support) that it was easier to do the quarter circles on keys, guess that makes us very early hitbox players?

You can tell it's Italian because it has Literally Just Kenshiro (Cody) in it. Did you know there's endings for Puppaz and Shadow even though they're only playable via code? Way too hard for me though. Banging OST too. youtu.be/iuxgpqM_V9k

I remember it looking different, but we didn't play it that much. My brother was a big fan of Vigdal's Deluxe Galaga.
