Finally finished the last of my Game Boy screen mods! A while back I decided to try modding all of the mainline models: DMG, Pocket, Color, Advance and SP, pretty happy with how they turned out ๐Ÿ™‚

Thereโ€™s loads of kits and tutorials available these days that make adding backlit screens much easier than it used to be, Iโ€™d definitely recommend checking out this YouTube channel for more info youtube.com/c/MachoNachoProdโ€ฆ

The results of my first ever attempt at console modding, added a backlit IPS screen, new shell and buttons to an old GBA that I bought from a charity shop a while back, turned out pretty well!!

So I finally got around to playing Sayonara Wild Hearts and wow, that game is simply incredible, easily one of the best things Iโ€™ve played this year!!

Iโ€™m not sure Iโ€™ve ever played anything else where the music, visuals and gameplay are so perfectly in sync! The level of polish is just amazing!
Such a great launch lineup on Apple Arcade, think itโ€™s finally time to upgrade the 5s... really looking forward to playing Assemble With Care, Overland, Sayonara Wild Hearts and Sonic Racing of course ๐Ÿ™‚
If I had broadband setup at my new place Iโ€™d definitely be playing NMS Beyond right now!! Looks so awesome, but Iโ€™m gonna have to wait another week... ๐Ÿ˜

On the other hand, Minit has a really authentic 8bit vibe to it. Sure it looks a bit like a Spectrum game, but thereโ€™s also something about the simplicity and directness of its item based adventure mechanics that really reminds me of stuff like Dizzy...
The pixel art in Iconoclasts is really something else! Thereโ€™s a level of consistency and solidity to it that you rarely see on anything but classic sprite based hardware.
On the plus side, itโ€™s given me a chance to try some long forgotten games from my Vita/3DS/iPad backlog. So far Iโ€™ve been playing Iconoclasts and Minit, both incredibly cool games!!

Okay, now Iโ€™m hyped for SoR4!! Guitar wielding fighting game characters are the best ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Cherry Hunter reveal! She will rock your heart in Streets of Rage 4 - which will be hitting PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch! #sor4 @guard_crush @dotemu @lizardcube

Cherry Hunter reveal

Cherry Hunter is the daughter of Adam Hunter from the original Streets of Rage. Trained by her father and Axel, Cherry learned self-defense from a young age..

So yesterday I moved house and tomorrow Iโ€™ll be starting a new job!! Iโ€™m really hoping it all works out, but right now it feels like a lot of change in a couple of days...

This is such a great talk on level design! The way the levels and areas in Celeste work together to tell stories through platform game mechanics is just amazing! youtu.be/4RlpMhBKNr0

GMTK's latest episode of Boss Keys is all about Metroid, and it's very good indeed!! youtu.be/kUT60DKaEGc

Super impressed how well the Boss Keys level design graphing system works when applied to a whole metroidvania world, rather than a single Zelda dungeon. It suggests that Zelda's design template is a kind of meta-metroidvania, built from lots of mini-metroid levels...
