Hello new followers!
Thank you for trying Alex Fraioli in your home or office.
About me:
- I've been running a retro video game bar in Japan called CRITICAL*HIT for a decade
- I do a fun podcast with @rdbaaa.space called No More Whoppers
- I make video essays about RPGs, retro games, and/or sobriety
okay well I just burned through that like a pumpkin pie

On the short side but glad I played it and happy to support projects like this! Big recommend if you're starved for more down-to-earth VNs as I was

I kinda hate how so much conversation about specific games is “solving lore” like a puzzle rather than talking about emotions invoked. It’s like giant collective moments of missing the point

This silly offhand comment is somehow my best tweet ever so, uh, if you are looking for a software developer in the United Kingdom, or are elsewhere but are okay with remote, maybe hit me up? Contracting, startups ok. I’m flexible.

do you have any idea how much you have to piss somebody off to make them change their gauge
#Finland will begin to #Russia - proof its rail network, integrate with EU train infrastructure.

The Finnish government has announced the conversion of its rail network from Russian gauge (1,524 mm) to European standard (1,435 mm).

there is almost no feedback I will reflexively ignore as a game developer but “you shouldn’t name something X because people don’t know that word” is one of them. oh no! You might learn a new word! God forbid you take away a piece of knowledge from a game that’s not a brand of gun or some shit lol

Social anxiety and ultra-high sensitivity precluded me from ever working with other people so instead I wisely opened a bar, developed a drinking problem, quit drinking, closed the bar, and now stitch together a living as a reclusive VO/podcast/twitch/youtube mendicant
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

Speaking as your best friend, I think it would be smart of you to watch the Power Stone anime ー free on YouTube! ー and then listen to me and @rdbaaa.space talk about it on the new episode of Draw Game: The Anime World of Video Games! Search for it today on your podcast application and God bless

Just heard I’m joint winner of the McCrea Literary Award, given out biannually by @ulsteruni.bsky.social!

I’ll link to where you can find the published versions of my two winning stories. I’d chosen perhaps my two most N. Irish stories.

@pitohui.org I'm still making my way through your DQVII streams, and I felt compelled to bring up my favourite instance of a Japanese composer ripping off famous American music.
From the TV series Blue Swat, it is unambiguously the theme from Back to the Future www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEGW...
