There are a lot of "complete" lists out there, none being quite that or at all near.I don't claim this list to be that either (I know there are more out there), but it certainly is the MOST complete....

If you wanna flick through some retrogaming magazines, you need to get past the three bosses. It's a staring contest! 👀

I recently accumulated this Zilec/ACG/UPtG list, to finally get a comprehensive overview (more than 700 releases 🤯): www.SabreWurl.de

And Interceptor Micro's VIC-20 game 'The Pit' (Licensed from Zilec/AW Electronics) is of course included. 🤗

But yes, at the same time, this progress is mindblowing and I do like it, until I don't. 🤔

🎃 8+bit Maggot Scene Wreck 🎃 @retromagazines.net · 3d

I think you're right.
I know which time I would prefer, where everybody doesn't see threats everywhere, but rather just one true enemy, if any.

Bias is part of the human genome & the conditioning after birth. Somewhere within that framework rationality & knowledge are hard at work to counter automatic instincts.
That is getting harder for many with a faster approaching and uncertain future; AI, ease of alt. truths, fading of "trad." values.

400 days of daily pixel art!! ✨

I didn't think this would last more than a few days when I started but somehow made it this long.
I don't know what the next step is this time. I'll keep going as long as I can!

List your retro gaming scores and beat the ones already in:

🕹️ mycrappygames.com/highscores/

I need to get my finger out, as well as my computers and consoles. I'm bad, so I'll find a not listed game and get in sneakily with true lack of honour... I mean, set a score that will never get beaten! 😏

Thanks, mate. 🤗
I didn't notice those until I posted you that image; better quality than earlier viewed.
So, now those makes sense, except the fact that she has one on her dress (lazy layouter), rather sweet than offensive. 🤔

I'm from '71, so young in that decade. I wish I'd been 5 years older.

"Boob controllers"? 🤯

Yes, definitely a time of more weirdness, freedom and ease. Less mind policing. It felt more inclusive and tolerant (maybe rose-tinted glasses?)
Now, either political/cultural wing is busy immediately feeling offended on behalf of others or themselves.

Me sad now.

A repressed person like that seems sad. American or catholic?
Just a puberty story. Hormones, not love. You probably never touched yourself (or anyone else). I sense bitterness against those who live their lives and not succumb to divine repression. The thank was esoteric, not actually reaching her.

The daftest game I've ever seen.
Well, perhaps the second. Does it beat this one...?

As a young boy, in the early 80s, who had recently discovered what the right hand was really capable of... Ripley / Sigourney was one of my first. 😳🤯🤧
That VHS was rewound and freeze-framed to the detriment of tape and wrist.

Thanks #SigourneyWeaver and happy b! 🎉

You need a safer neighbourhood. I would just need a deodorant with a lighter taped under the nozzle... well, even that would be overkill, actually.
This game could be what your actual local corner store owner plays at night to calm nerves, keep dreams and illusions alive, and be able to fall asleep.
