  • 3 increasingly anti-corporate takes on The Minecraft Movie [Ed: Microsoft marketing in movie form]

    I haven't seen this film, so this is all based on how the animation looks. Specifically, how a sheep in the Minecraft game is some blocks with flat textures, and how a sheep in the Minecraft movie has thousands of individually rendered hair follicles each with their own inertia and shading.

  • unciv

    I was dicking around on my Pinephone and decided to go into the Games part of the software center. Never mind that I would only use the GUI software installer in mobile, but I was just curious as to what they had, trying to make my phone more viable.

    I scrolled through the options, none of them super appealing. Then I saw something called Unciv. What? Well, it's a Civ-like game according to the description, so I might as well check it out. It can't be that bad.

  • 🎮 klonoa door to phantomile - ps1 (8/10): apr 01, 2025

    i've first known about klonoa like 2 years or so when their remasters were announced for the switch :0 i was very fascinated about the protagonist design and thought they were very cute!! since then, i've been meaning to play it... i WANTED to pirate it (i am broke) but never really got around to it. blehhhhhh...

    thankfully my anbernic handheld had the game on it, so!! i remembered to actually play it!! :D

    i actually went in blind, so i had no clue what i was in for. figured it was one of those simple cute bouncy platformers, expecting something like kirby maybeee? in a way, it kind if is aligned with that sort of vibe?

    for a ps1 game, the controls are pretty simple. you have your movement buttons, of course. then you only either jump/float or shoot (involves shooting "air bullets" to infkate enemies into.. balloons..) the story line is also a simple "hey this guy wants to plunge the world into darkness, go stop him pretty please?" but i find that it works. it tries to be unique and spins it into their own at the end - and while simple, i find that it's still enjoyable.

  • stuff i'd like to do on the anbernic
