I already know my goal for 2026 is to update my portfolio and socials. I've worked on so many things but haven't been uploading because I'm so burned out with the social media cycle.
Being offline rules, it is the new cool! but it sucks if you want to stay relevant and keep your career in motion.

We're doing shorts now and I'm really blown away at how funny @jmanvelez.bsky.social makes them.
In between discussions of art and philosophy, here at Brainlords we often take time for more important issues like how awful modern Yoshi looks.

"If you hate GenAI you're going to have to stop playing new games when they all start using it"
My brother in Christ, my backlog is literally thousands of games long. I have lifetimes worth of earlier titles to play, & I will gladly do that instead of boiling the oceans for a new CoD or whatever

My hot take about Metroid is that I'm not big into Metroid but I don't think you should ever hear a single human voice or see a single human face during the course of those games unless you 101%'d it, and then you get to see Samus's newest gorgeous visage say "congratulations, gamer" at the camera

I've gotten into the hobby of tracking down worn out and cheap game boxes for my loose games. To me, the wear, scribbles and leftover labels tell a story. I find much more value in that than a pristine copy ❤️

HUGE THANKS to @strucci.bsky.social for taking time to chat with us about some of our favorite terrifying moments in games that aren't really presented as scary! We had so much to say about this topic it is reflected in how dense this week's episode art is 😂 💀 👻 ENJOY!
Our Halloween episode is out! Special guest @strucci.bsky.social helps us understand why Sonic and Subnautica are just as spooky as Silent Hill in The Scariest Non-Horror Games!

JET FORCE GEMINI - THE STAR TWINS
This game was too hard for me back then, but still I love the designs and pseudo anime sci fi aesthetic. N64 Rareware as peak.

Silent Hill 2
So happy with how it came out, yet never performs well anywhere I uploaded it. 8 years later I still really like it and it means a lot to me personally. I'm glad I expressed what I loved so much about this game, even if it doesn't resonate with everyone.
