Feel free to talk to me or my son again. We're very affable llamas!

It's a close second to the og DS

Huge fan of this build. I always love Lego's approach to hardware models, trying to replicate as much of the look and feel of the original device. Looks great, and that power switch click is perfect.

Me, very specifically, and like ten other people. I'm glad that I'm still coming out ahead with all this (I play a lot of fortnite), but I still have no idea what the fuck they're trying to accomplish.

Btw Ampersandrew is a great username? Well done!

Randy Marr! @randymarr.bsky.social · 7d

I totally get that. For me, Metaphor isn't the only game I play on it. I'm using it to discover ver new games too. And Fortnite is my big reoccurring game, so this ends up actually being cheaper per month since I sub to Crew. Again, I know I'm a very rare use case.

Randy Marr! @randymarr.bsky.social · 7d

Oh I know. I also use it to try new games on stream and stuff, so I have a very specific use case. I feel like I'm very much an outlier for most people.

Randy Marr! @randymarr.bsky.social · 7d

Also I know most people don't get a benefit, and they shouldn't be charged for it. But Fortnite Crew is my other big sub and this is technically now cheaper for me all told. But I *have* to be such an edge case, this can't make sense for the majority of people.

Randy Marr! @randymarr.bsky.social · 7d

I'm curious how it is for most people, because I realize I'm probably a more fringe case. The price hike sucks, but 30 bucks a month is still cheaper for me to play all the stuff that comes out than buying new games. I can't drop 70 on Metaphor, but now I'm able to play it and other games

Looks great! Can't wait to try out the demo!

Randy Marr! @randymarr.bsky.social · 10d

Looks sick!

I'm watching Tron for the first time ever right now. I don't like how prescient it is!

I do, however, love Bruce Boxleitner.

The industry's not quite done shaking things out. Sucks but hey, can't keep it going without a breakout hit.

Anyway, I'm looking for work! I'd love to stay in game production/management so hit me up. Producer, writer, localization, quality analysis. DMs open!

Retweets are super appreciated.

Also everyone's a furry, apparently. Coming after that Horse Girl Money.

Thanks for wrecking my psyche today.

Randy Marr! @randymarr.bsky.social · 14d

That's weird timing, I just started watching True Detective last night and dove into a bunch of King in Yellow stuff today. Must be some kind of sign. An elder sign.

Hey, we're Ghost Beach Games. We like games, and we like liking games. Come hang out!

It's just super unnecessary. It doesn't mix anything up in an interesting way, it just makes it more difficult to learn levels in general.

Randy Marr! @randymarr.bsky.social · 20d

Played the Sonic Racing Crossworlds demo yesterday and... it ain't great. The driving feels fine, the items are whatever, but this whole "switching levels" mechanic just doesn't work for me. You always spend go back to the lap 1 track for lap 3, and then the fourth race is all the lap 1's again.
