(I've been doing little updates on mondays on twitter, just a little summary of what I've been putting out. Figure I should maybe start posting it here too in case maybe it can catch someone's attention?) MONDAY. Here's what's up: New Inscryption LP ep: youtube.com/watch?v=20h7ay… Deeprock stream archive: youtube.com/watch?v=_dIRxW… Birthday Nonsense on Wed: twitch.tv/oleetku New art: twitter.c...
PAX East is the one near me. It’s also the only major games conference I’ve been to. 2020 is my third year attending, and this year I took more pictures than any year before. Mainly to remind myself of things I wanted to keep an eye on after I left, but also to give me some photos to fill an article such as this, highlighting some of the more interesting and exciting games I saw. Main attractio...
Last year I got pretty hard into a mobile game. This is something that normally doesn't happen, but this was Gundam Battle: Gunpla Warfare, which is in the genre of Toy Giant Robot games, which loyal followers will know [I have had a history with.] In fact, the only reason I really fell out of that game was because there came a point that the game would crash every time I tried to load into an...
Pre-Trip, The Road to The Crew: I'm someone who's still not sick of open world racing. I'm still happy race side events exist in GTA, Watch_Dogs, and other open world games, and I'll even return to Midnight Club now and then. (Although ironically, Burnout Paradise is not my favorite Burnout game.) The Crew was on my radar from its announcement, but with the only gimmick being "the hugest open w...
A bit late, but I figured I should write a bit of GOTY stuff. I try to make Top 5's based on personal experience more than anything else. Mainly because a lot of the time we don't get around to playing games until years after their release, but temporal limitations wouldn't be a fair reason to punish games that are worthy of praise. So just keep that in mind. It's intentional that there are gam...
Just a quick thing I did from a doodle I drew the other day . Happy Holidays, everyone!
Yeah, and then the final game also got played. But it got hard and mean and broken, so it took two videos. Take a look: And part 2: And with that, and era of my life was put behind me.
When I made the first one, I accidentally went ahead and played through Jill 2 as well. See?:
It was a weird day, so I played through Jill of the Jungle. Here, take a look:
So for anyone who is looking for new podcasts, we just released the first episode of No Credit Continue, a review podcast talking about the freeware and free-to-play games that are worth checking out. But while I'm at it, I'll just post the whole thing up here (reposted from the Oleetku tumblr , which you should check out if you're curious about the other stuff I'm working on). Everyone gets bu...
Crush it this Valentine's Day by handing one of these babies to your crush. I'm not sorry. Update: I added 4 more. One from suggestion .
So after watching Giant Bomb's Unprofessional Fridays: 10/31/2014 I was left with the image of Jeff Gerstmann sitting there in a penguin costume, struggling to play Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo on a modular CPS-2 setup. I was giggling, I was weeping. I knew I had to do something. This game is the result of the few weeks after that broadcast. I had 3 goals while making it: Make a match-3 game u...
Honestly, I would go so far as to say I hate DotA, and all it's ilk. At first I assumed it was just because I was bad at it, and had never been a big fan of any RTS or even Diablo-style games. But there was something more to it, something that was actively offensive to me about it's mechanical design. That I could put my finger on what it specifically was that I hated about the game drove me nu...
I don't do a painted style very often, and it's even more rare that I do a portrait, but it seemed like the right thing to do. I have GB content in my ears pretty much constantly. This isn't that big of a deal, I've had media playing constantly in the background since I was a child. The Crew just puts out enough stuff that consistently makes me laugh and covers things in a way I care about that...
You're already calling me crazy. Hold on a minute. (or skip to the TLDR version at the bottom~) This is history as I'm seeing it: I'm looking at this as a matter of definition. For a long time all games were in the realm of the tabletop, and "role playing games" made sense in comparison to classic abstract games (Board games and sports very rarely have a profound back story to them). Even warga...
What? Well, I don't know how to take part in communities, but this is a start. For those who want to know, I'm a dude. I play games. I make games (sometimes). I talk about games. Oh, also I art a lot. Like, a lot. Don't like artists tho. Isn't that funny? So yeah. Still all I know about Giant Bomb is the Bombcast and the quick looks. But hey, it seems this is the kinda place where I get to put...
