This is the first article in a new series I call “Under the Influence”.

I’m new around these parts. Been hearing about Bluesky for several years, but never joined until this week.
I write mostly about retro games and their influence on me. Hopefully I’ll find like-minded folks. Looking forward to it! You can find my articles at open.substack.com/pub/8bitpers...
