I do Things. Sometimes develop games, sometimes write books, sometimes make videos. Sometimes nothing, honestly.
That one I think wasn't the wrong GENERATION, it was the wrong console. The Saturn is full of 'em.

Oh yeah, everything I ever do from now on is designed for the Deck first and people can deal with the rest themselves, but that's because I'm Deck obsessed.

Most RELEVANT reason now is the Deck running at 16:10 but if I'm doing that anyway I might as well do 4:3 etc etc etc you can see why this spirals off into dull bollocks for hours.

Dull as fuck. Can't even put it in a Devlog really, can you?

"Spent six weeks making sure you can change the aspect ratio and the UI doesn't go dodgy for the six people who still have a 4:3 monitor for some reason. I don't know."

Thrilling.

I have always 100% agreed with that (and still do, don't worry).

Yeah, and GG Shinobi I & II are basically the same but they're absolutely nothing like Revenge or the Master System one and then there's the PS2 one and... Just... Mental. Great! But mental. So varied. Bizarre unique little series for the lineage and time involved.

There's this big weird gulf in design between every single Shinobi game where it's like... If these weren't all CALLED the same thing, I don't know if I'd believe they're the same series.

I do not appreciate the quotation marks, Ryan.

Let's be real, I'd call it a Soulslike for marketing purposes but with things like "now with checkpoints!" And "persistent progress between deaths!" and "solid lock-on targeting!" and eventually you'll realise it's just Ocarina of Time.

The goose from Untitled Goose Game taking on Slappy the Dummy in a Soulslike boss fight with a dagger in its beak is my new dream game.

...Gooseborne

Okay cool. I picked it up yesterday, I didn't know if I was missing something. Enjoying it so far!

Has it got a... Run button? Or is it just the roll?
February 9, 2025 at 6:54 PM
Jesus that's beautiful. I'm in.

Thing I heard long time ago (sadly can't remember where), if you were gonna do a self-deprecating thing as a comedic bit, do a self-aggrandizing comedic bit instead. Same effect, you're just not putting yourself down in the process.

Hence the Shiny Golden God.
