- as all my friends by now know, whether they want to or not, I complain about social media and the state of the internet a lot. mors wrote a blogpost that really aligns with my feelings on it too over on our site

- Reposted by CatonatorThe Video Game History Foundation Library is now in early access. For free. For everyone. Wherever you are. Read more: gamehistory.org/vghf-library...
- On a similar note, I wish indies would learn to just drop a game. I've seen so many indies with these weird protracted cycles of DLC and added content that they completely lose the feel and fun of the original game. Just make a sequel instead for fuck's sake. Not to name any hats in t-- I mean names
- func_rotating (epilepsy warning)
- Testing bluesky video upload with this collision breakthrough!! Most of the actor physics are now (kinda) functional. Need to work on the editor a little more to get moving platforms up and running, and then we could theoretically start messing about with a real character controller...
- So there's this game about cars and self-deprecation that I like quite a lot. I decided to write about it and how I'd like to see more of it. Definitely more than Yooka-Replaylee. Also in case I forget to post for months again: Merry Christmas! catonator.net/blog/post.ph...

- Reposted by CatonatorI kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain
- So, bsky suddenly got its headstart and finally got a lot of users over here. But I've been here since the closed beta, and I personally think I much prefer the format of forums over social media. I'll try to show a little more about the site soon when it looks better catonator.net/blog/post.ph...
- I have a new blogpost! On Doom Eternal! You remember Doom Eternal, right? It had like a rabbit, and uh, some mean growly guys and also it was about friendship or something. Anyway here's the post link: catonator.net/blog/post.ph...
- Er, it's been a while. I basically stopped using social media and don't really regret it. But now, I have my own site. So I don't need this shit. Except when I want extra traction, so I may come back to post links here whenever new posts happen. Maybe. We'll see. catonator.net/blog/post.ph...
