I'm working hard on the ultimate physical games - all content on cart/disc, tested by preservation groups, no FOMO with widely-available retail versions + artistic collectible prestige EDITIONS versions.

Please support our mission! ❤️

@PlasmidEX7 The discourse is in a tiny bubble and it'll sell millions and be a huge success regardless (or not regardless, but it won't be because of this haha)

@Chris_Dring @KeefJudge Same here, always knew I loved the game, replayed and 100%d it on the collection for the first time in years, reinstated that I do indeed love that game and had a great time with it.

I'd play it every summer if I had the time haha.

@Fabrazz Lmaooo I thought you were replying to the Bubsy tweet at first. But yes, good for them!

Meccha Chameleon has surpassed 20 million copies sold.

It is not far from entering the top 50 best-selling games of all time, after launching just two months ago:

Looks like @lukaseggen has had his account compromised - got sent a strange link asking to vote for him for something. They've since deleted it + blocked me.

Assume his account was compromised by clicking a similar link DM'd to him. Don't click dodgy links sent by mutuals! 😟

The Zium Railway announced - an interactive virtual art gallery game, where you traverse an open-world via foot or train to view various interactive installations.

I love what Zium projects do with the artful medium of games. ❤️

Launches September 13:

@baeksondo We've already launched it! The digital game launches in October, and we're aiming to ship our physical version early next year.

Genuinely shocking if Project Scorpio has a disc drive with physical options, given Xbox's low physical sales percentage compared to even PlayStation.

You'll see us supporting it with physicals at Lost In Cult if so, though!

Digital Foundry says sources have told them that Microsoft is planning to continue support for physical game discs with the aim of prioritizing backward compatibility. https://t.co/ezwZN66nTK

Bubsy 4D has shadow-dropped a new 'Black Hole' update, featuring 15 new levels, new outfits, achievements, enemies, and more:

@Captain_Shoffer It does not, there's no disc drive hardware option - which, as I say in the post, is unsurprising. There are cover plate accessories.

Sony has revealed its Marvel's Wolverine Limited Edition PS5 + DualSense controllers.

Unsurprisingly, the PS5 does not include a disc drive option.

@JusticeSolid @NoelFrostpaw Yup, I got that, hence "unsurprisingly, there's no disc option". Not sure what I'm missing here - is there a layer of sarcasm people are incorrectly picking up from me?

[Ryan T. Brown 🎮🩷 @Toadsanime]

@Captain_Shoffer @NoelFrostpaw Yes?

@Genki_JPN I'll do it

@ItsJesseGomez Also, there are literally shelves of gaming books behind him lol, idk what they mean. It's an office, not a games room.

@AsimTanvir 😱😱😱

@DearVillagers Oooh, great update! Loved this game, that was my only comment on it really - although it was very minor, cool to see! May have to replay it...

@Euden You're not the only person I've heard negative things from on there over the years, unfortunately. That absolutely sucks.

Supermassive Games (Until Dawn, The Dark Pictures, Little Nightmares III) is laying off up to 75 people in an ongoing redundancy process.

[Ryan T. Brown 🎮🩷 @Toadsanime]

@NoelFrostpaw Those are console covers. There is no new hardware option. As I say, not surprising there's only a new Digital Edition hardware and that it's just covers for the disc drive model.
