In Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures, Pac-Man would perform a few animations if you idle on the item guide. The one of him knocking on the screen scared me when I was younger, and I wouldn't even touch the game after that. Looking back, it's a silly thing to get scared of.

i did not expect to get the speed completion achievement, i was just trying to 100% steel soul

Hollow Knight's Game Completion screen. Percentage is fading in, and shows 100%. In the bottom left, Steam's notification system is showing two achievements - Steel Heart: Achieve 100% game completion and finish the game in Steel Soul mode; Speed Completion: Achieve 100% game completion and finish the game in under 20 hours

A message from Team Cherry, seen after beating Hollow Knight in Steel Soul mode: "Congratulations! You played skillfully and proved you have a Steel Soul. Thank you for taking the time to explore and conquer the world we built. We'll meet again soon with a new challenge for you..."

decided to make minecraft-styled item tooltips in gamemaker

NARbluebear @narbluebear.bsky.social · Aug 2

trying to redesign the minecraft hud with support for a few mods (overflowing bars, appleskin, and the aether) because the original was never updated for the 1.14 texture update to my knowledge

A mockup hotbar for Minecraft featuring hearts (left to right: Standard, Regenerating, Absorption, Poison, Wither Sickness, Frozen, Overflowing Bars' Health Boost Hearts + Regenerating, and a half heart for The Aether's Life Shard), Armor, and Armor Toughness on the left, and Hunger (with a golden Saturation outline), Mount Health, and Air on the right. The Experience Bar is split up into 7 parts, with the palette taken from the Create Mod's Nugget of Experience item. The selected slot texture uses a Diamond palette.

i believe i've heard of a meal called a "money sandwich" before

NARbluebear @narbluebear.bsky.social · May 9

so uh why'd they place the fire and thunder shields here again? you can't go anywhere else, so they're useless and your only choice is the bubble shield

Sonic Origins - Carnival Night Zone Act 2, S3K Ring Vacuum 2 challenge. Three Shield monitors are sitting on a ledge above a pool of water, being Thunder, Bubble, and Fire in that order.

I'm surprised the game can even handle hundreds of gabriels attacking you at once.
