My lonely robot has audio, can walk between rooms, and one of them has some pretty vicious looking electricity arcing down from a central column.

@CatherineFlick Those look delicious, although I admit I misread your post first time around, and wondered what a "wild scone" was...

"There's this fear that exists—if we don't have everybody working overtime and we don't make AAA games that have $200 million budgets and the focus is on photorealistic graphics and 1,000-hour playtimes, [...] and that's the only way to make games."

@djlink similar was heard 20+ years ago (smaller budgets and playtimes), but same reasoning. It just keeps escalating.

@Bobbins no need for a fight, still hoping to make something better out of gridlock one day using those as inspiration

Doing my bit for print today. Amazing that Retro Gamer has been going for 20 years now. Hoping to get my byline back into its pages again this year too.

@craiggrannell my biggest problem is that I can’t get around games like Fable (which only came out a couple of years ago, surely?) being categorised as retro. Great mag though!

@Floppy I’m sure you’re all over this already, but seeing a lot of noise over this Bluesky bridge - will you defederate from them?

    @k all time classic. One of my (few) memorable moments at an E3 was watching the video of that on the Sega stand just after the announced it. Just burst out laughing :-D

    I was just going through my screenshots and remembered I'd taken this when looking up a recipe over Christmas.

    Choose from "silver", "gold", or "platinum" data access levels, where platinum is the most invasive. And the whole thing just adds so much unnecessary cognitive load.

    New keycap day! I needed to clean my DSA Milkshake set so I decided I'd finally swap them out for the ePBT Dreamscape set that this keyboard was made for. It's adorable 😍

    @sophie by which I mean, I understand the purpose, and would like to buy one since I need one 🤦‍♂️

    @sophie I do like the keyboard, but also what is the lamp? Thanks!

    Anxiously waiting for a domain registration to drop. It’s been sat on by squatters for 5 years, and it expired 2 days ago. I’ll be gutted if some other squatter grabs it first.

    The SKÅDIS System meets the Akro-Mils System meets the Universal T-Clip System.

    This is a massive crossover event for a very specific kind of nerd.

    @sayomgwtf deck commander looks interesting, was unaware of it!

    @sayomgwtf Thanks, will keep an eye on it! I was recently playing the old MB Defender board game (and others), always intrigued by these interpretations! I never got round to trying out Missile Cards on iOS though, now it seems to be unavailable for newer devices 😬

    @ethanschoonover I have a link to one of your Tweets where you recommended a book series on 'rich urban world building', but the Tweet is gone and I haven't written down the actual book names anywhere
    https://twitter.com/ethanschoonover/status/1481043810943602689

    Do you have any recollection what that might've been?

    Just saw a headline about Hashro trying to break into games, what year is it?

    Also, pretty sure Hasbro already make and sell a few games, might be wrong about that mind you.

    @psychicparrot42 right? I have too, so once again left baffled by the games industry news cycle. Maybe I have been out of it too long!
