Deadalus/ Robotica, although simple, is one of my favourite games for the whole console. Made me so happy to see this was the gif you used!

There's definitely too much too keep up with but it's a good time to be a Batman and Comic fan! Loving falling back into it all when I get a chance. Found some old copies of some belters too

It's spooky time! Keeping with tradition, all of the October videos will be horror- focused 🎃

It all kicks off with Deadeus, a modern Game Boy game that plays like a real-life ghost story!

I keep thinking about "3D impressionism" as a much needed term for the way we think about art direction in games

To me measuring how "better" or "worse" the graphics are only in terms of their relation to reality is like claiming the photo of a street in Arles is objectively superior to Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh, Café Terrace at Night, 1888

A real street in Arles, France, which served as a basis for Van Gogh's painting

One of the coolest video game preservation stories I have ever covered arstechnica.com/gaming/2025/...

All 54 lost clickwheel iPod games have now been preserved for posterity

Finding working copies of the last few titles was an “especially cursed” journey.

At the Bristol Naked Bike ride this year some old chap used one of those app rental bikes and honestly I can't stop thinking about that fact...

Checking out this really cool Gameboy horror game today made by a friend who is an incredible artist @izmaus.bsky.social ! He's super talented!

It's very charming so far and I'm invested in the mystery of things! 👀🙏🔥

Have a look at it and his other itch creations:
izma.itch.io/deadeus

The game Deadeus played on a gameboy-like device called a Miyoo Mini. The title screen depicts cartoon pixel art human digestive organs with the title Deadeus over it. Underneath is the dev Izma and the year 2019.

A screenshot from the game played on a Miyoo mini. It shows a pixel art top down character akin to RPGs and pokemon in a neighborhood style area surrounded by trees and a river.

Happy anniversary to Deadeus! This creepy, cosmic horror-inspired adventure from Indie Heroes Collection 1 first released on 8-bit handheld on this day in 2019.
