New video! From 1998 to 2011, "KS" created a series of maps and mods for Quake and Half-Life that embrace an unlikely fusion of first person shooter with surreal art, film, architecture, and, naturally, anime girls. youtu.be/M8Dr2CxUeME
i will soon be entering my angeline era!
It's finally coming!!
On December 8th... I'm releasing my next game, Angeline Era!!!
It's a vast, 3D action-adventure where you travel across a country's unmarked overworld, with every level hidden in plain sight.
Please look forward to it!!

also it's unfortunate that Alyx is kinda prohibitive to play because it's absurdly good. played it a couple years after it came out on my sister's headset and it's absolutely as big of a jump as HL1 to HL2. it effectively *is* half life 3, just not many people have played it to realize this lol

i've been thinking about this since finishing Alyx and honestly i think if there *is* a new half-life, they'll just release a non VR version of Alyx along with the announcement of 3
if they did actually make half life 3 whats the percentage of people that play it and get really confused because a vr game that no one has access too changed the cliffhanger to a completely different one

New translation!

From Masako Yashiro, a major name in shoujo and influence on Year 24 members, comes a startling, complex fairy tale turned existential nightmare ripped straight from a 1969 issue of COM...

Enjoy the masterful one-shot "You Dropped Your Shadow" here!!

Yashiro? more like Yass, She Hero (i respect women you see)

not related to the current vid i'm working on, but i'm trying to think of older (90's, early 00's) FPS games with drivable vehicles outside of the obvious ones like Halo, Battlefield, UT2k4, HL2 etc.

anyone have any fave examples of this?

Ope, forgot to install textures on my Steam Machine

pretty interested in steam machine. outside of playing stuff for videos, steam deck is how i play the vast majority of games. only real issue is that it's not quite powerful enough for big screen gaming.

also been wishing for a new steam controller that was just the deck minus the screen, hell yeah

got a really good mag from @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social this month; GamePro from March 1993. in really good condition considering how old it is, and most surprisingly, the poster is still in here!

here's a lil thread of some interesting stuff inside
