Yes it's literally my fave thing in the more recent Digital Eclipse collections!! 👀

Julz/Julian 🏳️‍🌈🎹🎶 @julzvz.bsky.social · 1d

I will always love Digital Eclipse and co. striving to, not only bring back significant games to modern consoles, but also celebrate the people who made them and put their stories inside the game themselves! This is endlessly cool I can't wait to see everything they put into this! 😌🙏❤️

Digital Eclipse @digitaleclipse.bsky.social · 3d

MKLK will feature almost three hours of exclusive video interviews created in collaboration with documentarians Area 5. Plus an additional hour of archival, historical, and behind-the-scenes video segments, including some material that has never been officially released.

At the very least, you were productive but I totally get having FOMO for everything else though. 💀💀

All Unity devs - read this, vulnerability in certain Unity builds across a bunch of platforms - Sounds like a relatively straightforward fix with version specific patches to rebuild and redeploy.

If you develop in Unity, read this. You should've received an email too, but I'm case you missed it. unity.com/security/sep...

Unity Security Vulnerability: Developer Remediation Guide

A security vulnerability was identified that affects games and applications built on Unity versions 2017.1 and later for Android, Windows, and macOS operating systems. Download the patching tool here ...

Just patched Fire Tonight on Windows + MacOS to address the recent Unity vulnerability, which helped me remember about this game I made with Reptoid Games back in 2021! It still holds up as a great short+sweet little thing, and it's on sale for almost free.

Then of course I thought, oh, I need to patch Fossil Hunters too! But wait.. it was made with Unity 5.6.7 -- arguably the best Unity version of all time 🤣

So whatever, it's safe, it was always safe. Check it out too, why don't ya:

There's x2 new Game Modes, Nightmare (extra hard mode), and Daily Assault (a daily challenge that defines specific order of skill drops and enemy spawns).

The Mimic and Share Skill abilities I did a while back are finally in, which will absolutely cause chaos ...and probably wont break anything?

Screenshot of the main menu from the game The Bridge. The new "Daily Assault" game mode is highlighted and the tool tip at the bottom of the screen says the players high score for 4/10/2025 is only 468 (with the game ending before the charges are all placed)

Screenshot of the Results screen from the game The Bridge. The new "Share Skill" ability has been picked up by the Pink Crew member and has randomly given all the crew members the ability "Infini-Blast" ability

Just put out a little update to "The Bridge" as there were a few extra features I thought I could squeeze into my #pico8 cart!

Oh apparently it's Bandcamp Friday so I'm supposed to push this old thing again haha! If ya haven't already, I would happily enjoy any support you throw my way or even if you just give it a listen.

EP number 2 is already in the works and it's literally a completely different thing from this one lol

Julz/Julian 🏳️‍🌈🎹🎶 @julzvz.bsky.social · Aug 22

My first EP ever "Wait" is out now! It's a mix of a bit of chiptune, chillwave and downtempo-y genres. It's been a TIME getting this out due to hard drive death 💀 but it's kinda wild to finally have it here now!

Hope you enjoy some part of it! 😊❤️

I've been in a Metal Gear Rising mood and I just LOVE that soundtrack to pieces so here's my lil solo tribute to get me in the speed picky mood. The Only Thing I Know For Real aka Sam's theme.
