i lay in the dark. red ball.

i lay in the dark room dreaming of a thing to play. it’s perhaps a red ball that goes across a course, of obstacles. and they were placed there by the scientist. because the scientist wanted to study the red ball, for its abilities. and i begin to think about how the rain outside would […]

Hot Pig Jump! and How to Run a Successful Games Website Business (or How to Don’t)

Hot Pig Jump is a special type of game. I’ve watched two people play this game. Two streamers on the Radio TV Solutions crew. Trog and Holly Hollowtones. It’s a beautiful existential collage. All animal life has been annihilated, aside from the one pig, who “in his solitude, vows to rebel against god.” This is […]

rabbids. mario is with them. so what?

20 years have gone by since i got disappointed that a rayman game was actually a minigame collection about french minions. at the time the minions didn’t exist, so imagine the concept but french bunnies. now today i play a mario game where ubisoft’s rabbits are in there as well. it’s about killing them but […]

hideous.criminal.ancient

the valley was theatrically empty, like a set waiting for curtain rise. yellow stripes of bushes, thick with thorns and insect and the smell of a sweet decay line the hilly sides. a lightly grazed carpet of green with moss covered rock protrusions that is the most of it. pillar 12 looked down at the […]

criticism is cruelty

refusal to engage with the fact that part of what makes critique enjoyable is the cruelty and power embedded in it i think convinces some people that what they do is an unalloyed social behaviour. that they in fact do not get off on the experience of judgement. i believe that criticism is good, entertaining, […]

portal runner: beauty in abject reflection.

there is something very special and precious to me about certain objects. PlayStation 2 platformers of an excessive jank and sparseness. usually European. in my collection i’ve now completed three over a series of about 7 years. they are Evil Twin: Cyprien’s Chronicles, Gift, and now Portal Runner. Portal Runner is a game about Toys, […]
