I thought it makes sense to introduce myself here:

I work in the Games Industry as a "Senior Technical World Designer" during the day. At night I love to work on most things retro gaming related!

I am very active in recreating (repair) parts, with 135 releases!

Yume Nikki PS1.
Demo out NOW!
It contains two dream worlds to explore.

You can run it on a real PlayStation 1.

This is a fan game. I put a lot of love and care into it.
I hope you enjoy it.

Friendship stress test, but I endured and came out stronger. Just had to order a Happy Meal breakfast to get this toy for a friend and had to eat a crappy McToast and orange juice that tasted like water. Not gonna say who it was, but I am pointing my finger towards @pointerfunction.bsky.social

funfact; this is still currently our lockscreen it seems ❤️
and finally, we changed the lock screens of our workstations to the following image - which was also rendered on a real PS1 (screenshot from emulator though for simplicity), with a hacked BIOS to display the Guerrilla logo in PS1 colours.

Having interacted with TheWellRedMage from late 2017 to early 2021, the behavior I remember wasn't all that far from this. Though this is still the worst I've seen from him...

If you pre-ordered the book, consider getting a refund.
Let's hope the book doesn't have a section on Brazil or "third world countries"

If you're pre-ordering Bitmap Books' SNES RPG Book, don't. The author of it is a terrible person and shouldn't be supported, as you can see here. Thanks @st1ka.bsky.social for bringing this to light. He's been terrible for years.

I’ve also been painting it myself, for box art purposes but also to participate in my first painting contest at a convention.
