Retro game designer, retro game shop owner (ghettogamer.net), nerdy dad just trying to make it, y'know? I was @longie_long on Twatter. I guess technically I still am.

A while back, my wife agreed to star as the hero in a game I was making. We had a great photo shoot. She was such a good sport and a really good model.

The game has changed so much now that we're going to have to re-shoot in the new costume and settings. I'm excited!

It's for the kids, right? So parents can bring their frightened kids to a scary attraction and not feel bad about it? Conscience laundering!

SeaWorld has this Halloween thingy going on where they scare the bejeebers out of you. But for $16 you can buy a badge for them to leave you alone.

Is this not the very definition of extortion?!

I got a brand-new vanilla Monopoly game and not sure when they added the cat, duck and penguin but I'm extremely pleased lol

This was loaded up on one of our computers on my 6th grade science class. Absolutely loved it.

Quick @loish.bsky.social style study I did in a bouncy car with a charcoal pencil in one hand and my phone in the other. My mother in law was driving, so these are actually about as good as possible under those conditions!

Sometimes when I posted images of Barbarella, people initially thought it was AI. No, no, it's a real 1968 movie. ☝️

Just putting this out there. I am creating #ttrpg and am looking for test players. If you're developing a game, I would be happy to test your game if you test mine.

Maybe we could make this a new trend where developers help each other!

I miss the days of the late 90s/early 2000s going to a Fry’s (or Incredible Universe!) or Electronics Boutique, and browsing those (huge) PC game boxes with box art I thought looked so cool but never got to play. They were like windows into other worlds.

Simpler times. I’m old.
