There's something odd about doing "lists of people" but I think this list is a must follow for anyone who want to discover great people talking about games you've never heard about !

I will try to update it in the future and if anyone has suggestions please send them.

It's so rare that I post on reddit, but I have been blanking on this old weird DOS Zelda clone for like a literal decade. Please help me find a weird part of my childhood, lol. (You might see 'fake McDonalds' and think God of Thunder, but sadly it wasn't that.)
[PC/DOS] [Est. 1990-95?] Very obvious Zelda clone. The forest town had a weird fake McDonalds and some of the desert area used Disney's Aladdin opening theme in MIDI.

Happy new year Bluesky, you know what you should do my fellow gamers and players of video games ? Wipe out your wishlists and restart them from scratch. Let memory and how you feel about games make you forget and remember allow yourself to be enamored by a game you remember after 6 months.

I need games to get weirder.

It’s 2026, hyper clean minimalist UI design is boring- I want more bleeps and bip bip bip sounds when I’m in my menus. I want stylized text and elaborate window frames.

Rebecca and her companion Jennell Jaquays where pioneers who helped to shape many games that defined genres we still enjoy today.

Let's not forget them, especially in times when those in power wants to erase the very existence of people like them.

NEW VIDEO! A shorter one, but one of the more important videos I've ever made, so please give it a watch~

It's on the first 5 years (yes, YEARS) of making a game!
And yes I mention @blanksword.bsky.social but this is largely about another thing~

So, today I'm announcing a new book project... and doing a call for papers: crpgbook.wordpress.com/2025/10/31/t...

It's an anthology of video game history outside the usual US perspective - an accessible & exciting panorama of different realities - and I'll pay 300 USD per article.

Please share :)
The Video Game History Expansion Pack – Pitch your story
Today I’m putting my money where my mouth is and launching a new project — a book focused on game history outside of the usual North American perspectives.

Calling it now: 2028-2033 is going to be all about indie darlings dominating charts not because the quality has improved, but because the offerings are bare enough that more indie gems finally broke through to mainstream awareness.

For gamers who aren't in game dev, you should know that we are in one of the worst periods in game dev history in terms of industry stability and the reason you're not seeing that play out through products is because the average development window of games is 3-7 years so it hasn't reached you yet.

Anime is important. SAVING, anime is important. If you care about preservation at ALL, please support my efforts on Patreon. Some tapes take YEARS to show up, & if you don't get them then they're gone. Having a war chest to pull from is incredibly important. Thank You www.patreon.com/kennylauderd...
