Last call - we are only short on N64, GBA, and MD/Genesis.

I just want to put this out into the universe.

If you are a homebrew developer of a GB, GBC, GBA, NES, SMS, MD/Genesis, N64, or PS1 game with a free version or a free demo of you game, I’d love to ship it with SuperStation as a physical or digital demo disk.

This is a very impressive PS1 game by @eliasdaler.bsky.social running on SuperStation.

It's looking like I'll be snowed in tomorrow! Circumstances permitting, I think I'll stream some Pikmin 2: Endless Abyss Survival which is basically a Pikmin 2 endless cave roguelite game mode ??? It's sick.

I've made the mistake twice now of putting a transparent gradient behind my pngtuber only to have my computer update and ruin the capture of it. I should stop doing that or put it on a separate layer or something.

It feels really good when you arrive at an idea from first principles after messing around for a while, and then you find the name for it and go "Oh thank God I can compare notes"

This #screenshotsaturday I have a secret surprise: In my spare time, I've been slowly working on a source port of "Cave Dig 3," an adventure puzzle game I originally played on Mac OS 9 as a kid! 1/?
The title screen of "Cave Dig 3" showing the game title, main character (an orange fox) and some buttons and copyright information.

Hey! Thinking about making a little free claw machine game with pixel art from different artists (16x16 or 8x8). Just checking if you'd be interested in contributing? Everyone gets credited, just a fun side project. No pressure! #pixelart

In case you want to know how the new free Affinity is, I went to use smart object selection — a tool I first learned how to use in Photoshop over 25 years ago — and it prompted me to download the "object segmentation ML model", at which point it subsequently failed to find my clearly-defined edges.

There's a powerful feeling when coming across a melancholy town in Angeline Era. The sunlight and song washes over you...

I'm excited to share it with you very soon! Please wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/2393920/...

I've been prototyping games since at least 2010. Most of those games were never finished, but I made *loads* of pixel art for some of them. I'm considering polishing up some of those old prototypes into asset packs or something. 🤔

[ COMM FULFILLED ]

here are some of the opulent tiles and props I've designed for the later levels of Torment Hexus by @byobattleship.bsky.social

go wishlist it at store.steampowered.com/app/3238420

#screenshotsaturday #pixelart
Pixelart illustration containing tiles and props from the top level of the tower in the game Torment Hexus. The scene shows a room made out of gold-trimmed black marble, flanked by a pair of statues depicting a man with wings for arms, perched on top of a globe. The statutes are each underlit by four small spotlights on the floor. At the center of the room, there is a hexagonal command station made out of golden colored metal, projecting a cylindrical display of six holographic screens, each with an assortment of indistinct symbols and information. To the north of it, there is a computer desk, made out of the same materials, and projecting a a flat display of four tiled screens. The central screen shows a world map, and the other sub-screens show small pieces of indistinct assorted information.

I wanted all the flora and fauna in Angeline Era to be specific and identifiable! This screen features:
-young alder trees
-a yew bush with red berries
-a marsh cinquefoil flower that launches you
-uhhh... little round bushes that are bouncy
A sunny city scene featuring various buildings, fences, and plants

It's pouring rain and stormy tonight, so I think it's a good as night as ever to share the announcement trailer for the project I've been posting recently: MANOR OPUS!

It's odd remembering the internet from my childhood, and feeling the ways in which it has both grown and shrunk. It feels as if all knowledge is becoming more occult, less accessible, even as it's "easier than ever" to share knowledge or ideas, in theory.

One reason I didn't super love the Sheikah Shrine idea that I haven't seen articulated elsewhere is that it very much evoked Portal and set me up to await the veil to be lifted and see "red ants underneath" but it never comes. Underneath this bizarre, out of place hamster run is... Nothing.

I sent your meme in the group chat and my friend said "Can't we settle this over a pint?" so I made this in reply. You can have it.
the cover of "Quest 64" but photoshopped so that the main character is smiling, giving a thumbs up, and holding a 40 oz bottle of Miller High Life instead of a staff. The title has been modified from "Quest 64" to say "Quest 40"

How do you manage your time effectively when you have a good handful of things in flight with variable time commitment + absolute focus needed to progress? Related: how do you effectively keep up with status information for all the things?
