@yesterzine @OutofPrintArchive My money's on PC Gamer being next to go, and Retro Gamer being the last one standing.

@eniko I love and miss this projection in games

sorry if you're finding this out from me, but it looks like Peter Molyneux is making another game.

As a creator whose capacity to make videos ebbs and flows over time, and who even at the most productive can't generate a video a month, I’m dependent on Patreon’s per-creation billing option. I can take my time with each project and charge only when it's done.

Patreon just announced they're removing that option permanently next year, forcing everyone to subscription billing.

Not sure what options this leaves me with. No good ones, as far as I can tell.

What are some noteworthy videogames with zero chance of ever seeing a commercial re-release?

(Whether because of obscurity, rights issues, legal entanglements, or any other reason.)

Finally got around to making one of Rocky Bergen’s #papercraft vintage computers, the venerable Beeb. #bbcmicro

This and many other beautiful models are freely available for printout from Rocky’s site: http://rockybergen.com/papercraft

(I definitely have eyes on the Commodore PET next.)

Suddenly thinking again about the LotR scene where a fully ablaze Denethor sprints like half a mile to throw himself off the most photogenic part of the rocky outcrop.

After a week, I've got the Mother 3 wiki page into… some kind of state? I've sorted through and uploaded only a small subset of all of the materials; the rest is safe in a folder when time allows.

New plan: I realised that there's more to do on the wiki besides new pages: creating templates, writing docs, improving the front page.

So for now, I'm going to alternate weekly between 'new page' and ‘admin’ mini-sprints. This week: CSS issues. Oh bother.

@lunarloony The upcoming Wizardry by @DigitalEclipse — with Apple II interface option —is the only other one that leaps to mind.
