With the recent blocking thing, a lot of people are posting their Other Place accounts. Here's mine if you want it

@prinSNESs Snetup 😂

The Twitch app sometimes takes its time notifying you that someone has gone live. I think the longest I'd seen was about 90 minutes...

Until now.

I just got a notification for a stream that started NINE HOURS ago

@kodekaldwin It's like they're trying not to sell consoles. What a bizarre decision. There is absolutely no reason to buy an Xbox if it's that price

@ArcanaLegacy I've always been vaguely interested in the others, I just haven't got round to it. I think I got the second one because it was the most easily available at the time

You know which classic Sonic level doesn't get enough recognition for its music? Mushroom Hill Zone

@prinSNESs I like that cool sticks get a specific mention. Underrated perk of being in the world.

@RockLeeSmile I saw someone on Reddit asking for opinions on whether their use of AI will harm sales, and a lot of other devs were saying just don't disclose it. But someone is bound to notice the AI stuff sooner or later, and people REALLY hate finding out they've been tricked

@The_Socko Nice choice of first concert!

[AlanWithTea || The Indie Ocean @AlanWithTea]

@kalemonvo The eyeroll is funny 😂

Other things of note from Night Slashers Remake:

1) Why did the Belmonts never try kneeing Dracula in the knackers?

2) This characters attacks with her bum for no reason

3) Couple of cute bonus stages

A new year means a new thread of games I finish! Here come the 2026 plays!

Next finish: Night Slashers Remake

Mediocre brawler, it turns out. It's fine, lasts ~1 hour, and it's seasonally appropriate with its goofy monster roster. Not sure about the remake's presentation - it's all smooth and has a boring font. Probably better with the original art

@The_Socko I went to watch a series on Netflix (I forget what it was) and it started with season 3 😭

As a Retro game streamer on Twitch, I've always wanted to be able to choose the general Retro category and a second game category. Right now it's one or the other, limiting discoverability. If you like this idea as a viewer or fellow streamer, vote for it! https://t.co/DHKDIc5h48

@St1ka Oh man. I always hear that modern Simpsons is bad but I haven't watched it in decades so I hadn't experienced it myself.

This clip is just...painfully unfunny. There's no artistry to the jokes. There's no brain. It's like the jokes are randomly generated.
