Managed to grab tickets to this a little while ago and finally saw it last night. Absolutely loved it, such a shame it’s a short run #insideno9

Tonight’s choice, who can name it?

Rewatching Phenomena (1985) and had forgotten just how bonkers it is!

What’s the best music for a Sleepwalking scene? Of course it’s super frantic 80s synth with metal drums!

Fun fact though, it served as the inspiration for Clock Tower.

Nabbed myself this today ... have given it a run and I have thoughts, but want to know yours.

We finished watching Day of the Jackal tonight … this might be spoilers but why can’t the streaming giants just make a single series anymore?

With the amazing Faith getting a movie, who wants to take a STAB at Camp Sunshine?

Tonight’s movie is The Wolf Of Snow Hollow, only seen this once but remembering it being brilliant.

Looking up Neil Breen on IMDB for the vague hope of a new movie, and I had to stop when I reached the nicknames ... Neil "The Lean, Mean, Tuna Eating Hacking Machine" Breen and Neil "The Architect of Retribution" Breen are absolute winners.

From Season 3 Episode 10 tonight. Will there be answers? Who could possibly say …

Me … nope.

When we began making Camp Sunshine back in 2014 (10 years!) we did it only because we wondered if we could … turns out we could.

We wanted to create a game based off the Friday 13th NES game and it just kept getting bigger and bigger.

Creep Tapes episode 3!

Currently really enjoying pulling out all of the pixel based stops for our next game, there's new lighting, new mechanics and way more actual horror ... honestly, can't wait to show everyone.

Completely forgot about the amazing Time Killers, I remember playing this in an arcade in the early 90s and being floored that my character could have their arm chopped off and then that button didn't work any more ... some of those finishing moves were brutal too!

Starter pack - Gamedevs aged like fine wine.

I've been making games since 1984, professionally since 2000. I made a list of other devs with tons of XP, so I don't feel alone. :-)

1: Need more women on this list! Recs pls.
