📋 ART COMMISSIONS ARE OPEN ✍🏻

Right here in this shop (of sorts), you can buy: a shiny new PFP, your very own OC in a sweet new illustration, perhaps even a custom YT thumbnail for your videos!

Just check the info in the thread below, and we can start talking business 👀👇🏻 (1/3):

Oh yeah, and there’s a tech demo-sized elephant in the room… this might be a boring sentiment to repeat, but this game *really* should’ve just been a free pack-in game with the Switch 2, bro

In August, I played:

• a criminally underrated arcade throwback

• Shadow’s public redemption arc

• Actually one of the greatest platformers ever

• Essentially a playable short film about our finite time in life, presented with beautiful sketchbook-style visuals

Almost forgot to follow up on this ol’ monthly tradition— yapping about games I beat recently! Starting with July, I played:

• a cozy platformer with a funny difficulty spike

• probably the worst Sonic game

• Shantae’s interesting (if dated) early beginnings

• Hunger Games but with go-karts

Beny-Draws (IM THINKING ABOUT A COMEBACK) @benydraws.bsky.social · 14d

Saw this piece of fanart with the Mario Cast as the Fantastic 4… That inspired me to create this thing.
An abomination born from the mixture of two tyrannical maniacs! I present: King K. Doom.

Ok, it's been a hot minute since I gave attention to my Bluesky account, so I should probably fix that a bit 😅

Mighty, Ray AND... Honey the Cat?? 🕹️👾

Over the years, we've seen the return of many classic characters; it's a shame not all of them have the same luck.

SEGA has a long history with arcade machines! It's basically a different world.
