Did You Know⁉️ MYST actually had a short-lived comic book run.

It was originally planned as a four-issue series. Though it sadly never made it past Issue #1 🤯

You can check out Issue #0 and Issue #1 right here in THE VIDEO GAME LIBRARY 📚

makes a kart racing game called "" (Mickeyo Kart)

It's not great, but my favorite part is how it's all these cartoons like Mickey and Donald Duck and then Jack Sparrow's there like "Wait, I'm in this too!?"

Who remembers the #SonicTheHedgehog one?

I just realized I hadn't catalogued it into #TheVideoGameLibrary yet, so spent the morning doing that 😉

It's September 15th! That means it's the official start of the Spooky Season 🦇 I'm celebrating day one by:

  1. Starting to read "The Only Good Indians" by Stephen Graham Jones. It's got tons of ghost deer, so I'm pumped!

  2. Watching "The Twilight Zone" reboot. The first story was creepy and interesting!

  3. Playing "Signalis". It had me hooked after I picked up a copy of "The King in Yellow" in-game

I'm late posting this, but my retro gamer friend and I had a game night the other night. He had the perfect thing to help celebrate the Halloween season: Nightmare Creatures on N64! It's pretty jank, but we had a great time kicking werewolves 😄

@slanderoid@goblin.camp avatar

I also finished Signalis. My review is:

  • Good story 👍
  • Some cool monsters 👍

I had fun playing this one and definitely recommended it... but I have some Thoughts. There's too much to put in a toot, though. I'll be sure to update this with a link to my Steam review when I get it typed up

Now that my kids are FINALLY in school again, I'm tentatively starting to schedule some long-delayed again for my / / / decriminalization / / and advocacy / / many other issues-focused video series !

You don't have to be focused on any of the above topics, just have something interesting to say, and a decent webcam to record with (unless you live near and want to record an interview in person!) Bonus points if you're willing to appear nonsexually topless on screen with me, but definitely not required. I'm also happy to blur your face out or whatever else you need, if you want to keep your identity anonymous.

We can start the process of setting up an interview if you'd be so kind as to fill out the form I have here: https://www.toplesstopics.org/contact/collaborate/

And if you'd like to check out previous interviews I've done, you can see them here: https://www.toplesstopics.org/interviews/ (please keep in mind some of these are really old when I was a lot worse at conducting interviews, I think they're better now 😅 )

So excited to see more love; this time from Joe Bourrie's upcoming book "Beyond the NES"! ❤️

In addition to Dustin Hansen's gorgeous cover art, this book celebrates the Famicom's rich library, and is inspired by classic gaming mags of yesteryear.

I just wanted to remind everyone that if you ever wished to play The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall, but found it aged poorly, that a Unity engine conversion is freely available.
