GGPOZ's first public release is live at ggpoz.com! Play the old fighting games you love with the same upgraded-GGPO netplay made famous by those other games you don't play. Arcade-perfect input lag, hotplug, real-time map of players, CPS3 spectator BGs, and more!

The 12th Annual Alundrathon is starting now! twitch.tv/mikezsez This year we're donating to the Autistic Self Advocacy Network: autisticadvocacy.org

After eight years, it's finally really really REAL - GGAC+R with rollback is officially released!! And since it uses my improved GGPO, you can play opponents coast-to-coast or halfway around the world with zero lag! Congrats to TeamFC for the strong finish!

Today is the International Day of People with Disabilities. As an adult with Autism Spectrum Disorder I've written an article about how it has affected my life, to help broaden awareness about this invisible-yet-real condition: mikezsez.blogspot.com/2020/12/life-w…

In my extensive unread-message experience, most platforms only handle two digits. "99+" is very common. Steam is so far the only platform to display FOUR! :^S

Today's #Skullgirls patch: I thiiiiiiiiiiiink we fixed the post-Quick-Match crash, which was the last major obstacle for this counting as Done... steamcommunity.com/games/245170/a… Here's hoping!

@BackDriftAkli There are probably better people to ask, no? :^) My DMs are open! You can ask me to answer publicly and I'll do that, but I get too many mentions to sift through those... :^S I suppose I should read all 590 new Twitter DMs, and all ...1,113 Steam messages... huh.

Want to ask programming questions to French Bread (Melty Blood, Under Night)? Now's your chance!

@00000000 @ashxu_ Applying to PvP is surely an oversight; not applying in Event Mode is probably luck, since you don't fight the CPU, but likely helped it not be found. I'd guess it was added later during dev time and not tested much; you can definitely feel it while playing in versus sometimes.

@ashxu_ @MikeZSez So if someone is playing, and doing well, and someone else jumps in, the damage stays higher, shorter matches equals more coin drops. Easily could be an oversight just as well though.

This entire video series is great!!! but this one in particular is really something: in 3s, joining in to fight someone after they beat (or lose to) CPU opponents affects the damage in Versus...! youtube.com/watch?v=7-EnTf… (There are English subtitles if you turn them on.)

@DBGeneration13 @SGMolly_ Oh, I'll check that. Newly broken, like last few months/weeks, right?

@MikeZSez @SGMolly_ How about Queen of the Hill and the lack of order it keeps in Lobbys? Winner doesn't stay on, just seems random as to who gets to play next

Now that the exhibition is concluded, here's today's patch notes: steamcommunity.com/games/245170/a…

The NA vs JP #Skullgirls exhibition is live! twitch.tv/labzero

@MisterBackspace Minneapolis is working to dismantle and replace their police department, and #ShutDownAcademia is happening in solidarity. And if I made a tweet about any of that you know the responses would ALL be negative right now.

@MikeZSez Way I see it, there are probably more eyeballs looking at your profile right now than there are dollars in your bank account. So, in as humbly a manner as you can, it would probably still be a good time to continue spreading the word on something more positive.

I FULLY apologize. I said something stupidly insensitive, and I regret it. Read: tl.gd/n_1sr90h5

@fryax420 @wolfmanfibs @SonicFox I know this was sarcastic, but Sonic coming down hard on me would not have any impact on whether or not the NPC stays in the game, and they definitely know that.

@JD75086020 @hagure @VickiViperZabel I have to respond to this - apologizing (a real one, not an empty one) is the only moral thing to do. Whether people will judge me for that or not doesn't change the initial mistake, and doesn't diminish the wrongness of not saying anything. It's not about what happens after.

@VickiViperZabel I did say I'm not a good speaker, and it's extra hard when you're crying and very aware that everyone will judge every word. I don't think it's fine, ever.

@SunsetRadiance @xfosh I didn't mean it as defensive, I was genuinely asking whether further proof is required. If people are asking for receipts because they don't trust my word, I want to make sure I have satisfied them. See, this is why I apologized for saying stupid junk in the first place. :^S

@MikeZSez @xfosh Simply posting the screenshot without saying anything else would have sufficed...Please understand that it's not a good time to be defensive.

@ItsKaceyTime @xfosh How is providing the requested proof being a dick?
