Let's raise a glass of milk to bring in the weekend! 🥛

If you're going out to Heartbeats tonight, be on your guard and keep an eye out for sailors looking for trouble. You never know when a QTE might pop up!

A screenshot from Shenmue showing the bartender at Heartbeats bar. He stands in front of drink racks with multiple bottles, and wears a fantastic pink shirt.

In the Hazuki Residence, a butsudan/altar room can be visited throughout Shenmue 1 and Ryo will pray and talk to his father about what he's doing in certain parts of the story. most players most likely miss this.

SHENMUE is NOT a game we simply played. It's a game we LIVED and grew up with - it is home - it is our solace.

Rolled credits on Shenmue 2. What a beautiful game, and can't believe people waited on that cliffhanger ending for nearly 2 decades!

I did the artwork for my friend's ambient / bgm / concept album sampling sounds from Shenmue (1999, Dreamcast), out today. We were both obsessed w/ the game back in the day and the album really captures the special feeling of being immersed in that world.

For this #SaturdaySnapshot, we're going on an evening stroll through Golden Qr. It's kind of amazing that Ryo wasn't completely overwhelmed by Wan Chai's sights and sounds, having grown up in cosy Yokosuka. At least there's an arcade and Tomato store to remind him of home!

Happy Birthday to Woyu Cao! 🎂🎁🎈

Born on this day in 1959, Woyu is one of the first people Ryo meets when arriving in Hong Kong, and challenges him to take part in an arm wrestling challenge! 💪

Let's hear it for Shenhua! This week's #ThrowbackThursday is a gorgeous illustration of Shenmue's other leading character, and comes from the huge collection of design artwork that was uncovered earlier this year. Sketches like these bring us a lot of joy. ☺️

New job I began early summer requires an analogue wristwatch, so naturally I got a Timex Expedition! Found one pretty damn close to Ryo's from the original duology!

Bless her! Nozomi's grandmother Toki-san is still hard at work late into the night, sweeping up the pavement outside the flower shop and keeping things tidy. You've got to admire the dedication, but don't overwork yourself.

Good morning Shenmue fans! A new week brings new opportunities, but don't forget to take some time for yourself; even if it's a short walk enjoying the sounds of the outside world... and Ryo's footsteps, the man is an absolute unit! 😂
