Once again, the giant Ferrero Roche pyramid is back but they refuse to give it to me. "It's just a display, sir- they're not real" and the other lies the staff tell me won't deter me. I will be back and I *will* claim it. It is my task, and I will not fail.

How to lose 5kg in 1 easy step: get a damn haircut and stop being a hippie!
Before: the fifth Beatle that Ringo looked down on for being uncool.
After: well, still uncool but with a haircut.

I speedrun the PC port of this! Managed to get both the EU and USA boxes. Strangely enough, the PS1 version is the better game with expanded content and Time Crisis style shooting sections. Well worth checking out if you're a horror fan and love old school point and clicks!

Payday hit & my present from me to me this year ordered! Thank you again @eurothug4000.bsky.social for telling me about this release. As someone who has spent far too long on #EnemyZero 's OG PC port, this is a delight. Hopefully SEGA will release the game digitally in 2026 for the 30th anniversary!

Trick question, this is a screencap from the hit horror tv series Goosebumps, specifically the "Haunted Mask" episode

I recorded a proof of concept run earlier for Congo: Descent Into Zinj. I've submitted it to SRC for opening a board! Time of 32:51s is easily 5+ mins over what a "proper" run would be due to some mistakes and misclicks. Also need to properly test Amy's guidance to see if it's RNG or not.

Shoutout to the time I found this collection of public domain pumpkin images in a computer shop, with this Tintin one being the best

For someone who only started speedrunning obscure PC horror games *last year*, I'm still taken aback by all the events I got to showcase runs in *this* year. Some of these events also had me showcase multiple runs! I'm truly grateful for everyone's support & for the shows who took the chance on me.

Who would win? I feel Axel from Twisted Metal would be more aerodynamic but the cows would have better traction...

With @nightdivestudios.bsky.social updating I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream, I wonder if they are going to do a similar update for D: The Game that is currently on DOSBox..

And of course, a thank you message and shoutouts to some friends and online folk who have been really supportive or just plain good peoples. I unfortunately don't have free editing for these- this is all using a hex editor to swap out existing letters. If I had, I'd have a bigger list!

Thank you to @gamesdonequick.com and @helix.midwestspeedfest.com for having me on the latest episode of Parallel Universe to showcase Enemy Zero! Did you spot all the joke edits I made on the game terminal windows?

It irks me that with all the work I've done with Enemy Zero that I got a single downvote to bring it to 80% 😆 Eh, I do these not for fame or fortune but for a secret, third reason: to be the guy some random gamer 5 years from now goes "oh thank god a detailed walkthrough for this!"

Spooky month continues- Enjoy a new detailed walkthrough with maps for licensed movie tie-in game "Congo The Movie: Descent Into Zinj"! Avoid killer gorillas and cheesy 90s FMV voice acting in this obscure but charming point and click adventure game:

As the world's foremost expert of the Enemy Zero PC port(tm), I am definitely going to be Extremely Normal about this vinyl release of the soundtrack by @lostincult.co.uk and thank you @eurothug4000.bsky.social for making sure I didn't miss out! Soon as next payday hits I am treating myself to this!

As an Enemy Zero fan, I can't wait! I have collected a few nice bits over the past while, and I wrote detailed walkthrough with maps up on GameFAQs. I also speedrun it! I hope SEGA release the original PC port digitally at some stage. Perfect time with all the love for retro horror titles!
