A recent study has shown that all internet traffic is bots, but half of these bots are @EggsyGLC in disguise.
Yo Dawg! I heard you like branching story lines with a twist of meta.

So I would like to remind you that "Choose Your Own XMAS" is most wonderful! :)
To crush your templates, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their coders. https://twitter.com/aras_p/status/1078682464602726400
Happy just finished stockpiling food stuffs and I've already run out of coffee and sugar and milk and OMG all the shops be shut we are all going to DIE mini breXmas everyone!

100% immersion.
No problem.
As #VRXMAS advances upon us and we remember XMAS past I have decided that VR games could be vastly improved by dropping the flawed insistence that your plastic VR mitten is a real hand.
I demand instead, the far superior plastic robot hand on a stick!

@magic_bane Have all of the japanese ones been translated?
Last Iooked there was still a few GBA shiren ones that I couldn't play without learning japanese*.
*I can get reasonably far on my original japanese snes shiren but that's all guesswork.
Why can I not sign into this new epic store thingy using my steam account?

The #Bradford #Gamedev meetup in a pub is 7-9pm upstairs at The Turls Green.

I'm gonna try groovymame and its VGA hacks next.
Just a bit worried about having to build my own VGA cable that may break the monitor if used wrong :)
Good news everyone!
Tomorrow (Dec 12th) is the #Bradford #GameDev meetup in a pub 7-9pm upstairs at The Turls Green.
All Welcome!

It's crazy how hard it has become to run a proper old school RGB CRT from modern hardware.
https://twitter.com/StooCambridge/status/1067440291890806784 @StooCambridge @DamienMcFerran @GeordieMarv Still have it, I think I'll relocate it to our Bradford makerspace when we've cleaned the building up a bit.
I like the fact that the ESWAT arcade attract mode is broke, they must have changed something and are just playing back recorded button presses which no longer work :)
