They're calling it the most resource intensive Game Boy Color emulator of all time. Maybe we will finally get Metal Gear: Ghost Babel with ray tracing?
Finished Mega Man 1 (with savestates b/c IDC). Definitely a rough draft for what came later, though there is something to the spartan level design. The cute graphics still hold up. Controls are slippery and the difficulty curve is weird thanks to the non-linear setup. Cheese this cheesy game.
24:35 Achieved in Silent Hill: Homecoming Any% NG+! Good enough for 6th place. Final area of the game still gives me a lot of trouble.
Eight years after completing the first knife only run ever on Silent Hill (43:12), I come back with a new Personal best and World Record of 31:53, improving @edtherando.bsky.social's WR by 1:50. Big thanks to ed for explaining the Cafe Air Screamer to me and helping push this game to new limits!
I thought I was done, but I could feel it in the air tonight. 27:29 in the Silent Hill NG Easy speedrun!
27 Club in Silent Hill speedrunning! Pretty mediocre movement, but first try on skip. I skipped both 30 and 28 in my PBs, lol Played offline, as I wait out an ISP tech.
A 2 minute personal best of 29:05 in Silent Hill 1! Almost 8 years ago I ran a 31:11 (unposted), and this new Hospital skip thanks in large part to @edtherando.bsky.social gave me the chance to beat the pre-skip WR by 26 seconds...absurd!
The first sub 6 hours in the Lost Odyssey New Game Any% speedrun! A 5:55:32 after re-timing! Proud of this route and my execution bringing a time previously thought to be impossible. Eureka! I found the Odyssey!
Lost Odyssey Speedrun World Record improved by 8 minutes! 6:02:24! The WR stood for 4.5 years, and this new route primarily developed by me made the difference! Sub 6 hours is very real.
My first Lost Odyssey NG+ run and a 40 min improvement on WR! All that rerouting and guide making paid off. Sub 5 hr is possible
8 years in the making (stopped on Island 3), I finally beat Cuphead! Great fun, though the penultimate boss is harder than the Devil. Remember when Microsoft actually had interesting games as timed exclusives?
Unfortunately, I've been declined from AGDQ2026. It was worth a shot! This may be my last time submitting (never say never).
I think this might be my game of the year Spionage Action: Ear Solid Triangle - E Eater
Nah, I'm not playing Metal Gear Solid 3 Delta, I'm finding boss loops in Space Jam
Violent and scary footage from downtown Chicago this past Saturday, pray for us
I left my going live post on draft, but here's a clip from Napple Tale!
