Books. Video games. Software development. Photos of your lunch. Whiskers on kittens. These are a few of my favourite things. #BookBlogger

I'm https://t.co/lL3INanDvD on Bluesky if anyone is making the switch.

Very excited to play this. #Atari50 was so, so good. I love this style of playable documentary and hope they continue to make more like this.

The Making of Karateka is out today, and it's important to me that it gets noticed. This isn't a game, it's a coffee table video game history book that you interact with using a controller. There are games to play, yes, but they're not the main attraction. https://t.co/LOpai1PSsH

@parmderp I love mine!

[Rob @mcmillan]

One of my favourite series! Really worth checking out.

👻The Blackwell games are in the Steam Summer Sale👻

Till July 11th, you can nab ALL FIVE GAMES FOR 70% OFF!

Making the five games spanned eight years and they still take up a very special place in my heart. I still have a soft spot for Rosa and Joey.

Americans: I use miles and pounds

Europeans: I use kilometres and kilograms

Canadians: [snorting a line of assorted measuring systems] I'm 5'3, I weigh 150lbs, horses weigh 1000kgs, my house is an hour away and I drive 80 km/h to get there, I need a cup of flour and 1L of milk

@Bluebookballoon @reader_at_work Great book, looking forward to the sequel.

[Rob @mcmillan]

Picked up #Atari50 during this Steam sale, and I've just been loving my time with it.

Revisiting old favourite games is great, but it's all of the interviews, promotional material, design documents, and everything else they've added that really brings it up a level.

Cosori recalled my air fryer, and they make you send a photo with the cable cut before they verify that you qualify for the replacement. 🫤

I feel like with my luck, I'll be buying a new air fryer in a week...

[Cosori @CosoriCooks]

COSORI is recalling certain models of air fryers. The wire connectors in the affected air fryers can overheat, posing fire and burn risks. To request a free replacement (depending on the model of your air fryer and subject to availability), please visit: https://t.co/hPt745wM6N.

Just finished my final day at the job I've had for sixteen years. Bizarre feeling.

[Rob @mcmillan]

Feels good. #MarvelSnap

Reminds me of the first line from Neuromancer.

"The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel."

Just played through SteamWorld Dig 2 earlier this month and was thinking it had been a while since a SteamWorld game came out. Excited to try this one!

[SteamWorld Games @SteamWorldGames]

Get yer cogs and hammers ready. SteamWorld Build will be arrivin' later this year for PC and consoles ⚒️⚙️

Demo OUT NOW on Steam!

[Rob @mcmillan]

It took 40 years, but I've finally figured out what I want to do with my life.

[Rob @mcmillan]

@KitTheNameless I really loved it. I've finished the main game and am on the second DLC now.

[Rob @mcmillan]

Last day of the #SteamSale. What to buy, what to buy...

I picked up Cult of the Lamb and Citizen Sleeper during the holidays and have really loved both of them.

[Rob @mcmillan]

@JB38562092 Very true.

[Rob @mcmillan]

@astrolux86 I wasn't sure if I'd be as in to it as the main series, but I ended up loving this one.

[Rob @mcmillan]

@VidjaGamez So sorry to hear this, such an awful thing to go through.

[Rob @mcmillan]

@VidjaGamez Cool, hadn't heard of these. Tempted to order one now and start late!

[Rob @mcmillan]

I've fallen off the socials lately, but happy New Year! Hopefully 2023 isn't a complete train wreck!

We started the year off with a little hike, and I've taken the week off for video games.
