@anabasuwrites @BCGPro @ExpectationEnt1 Congrats!

So this is lovely news!! comedy.co.uk/pro/news/8236/… Thank you @BCGPro and @ExpectationEnt1!!

@tonywarriner it's an alien about to burst out of its skin suit

'The Spectrum' fresh off the press :) There's a lot to be said for an HDMI port...

@schillingc Friends, Romans, Countrypersons... Still works!

@schillingc I wouldn't think so. There's "countrywoman" too.

My partner bought a CD player that we can plug into our car so we can play our CDs and the Amazon listing features the following images. 💀💀💀

@dandouglas Congrats! Hope it all goes brilliantly.

some personal news: my daughter Kitty is getting a little baby brother, due December 15th ☺️

@tonywarriner It's behind you!

Docking anxiety! #elite

@BenHickling I just did Xbox & PS5 movie players via their platform APIs, just to play some mp4 videos full-screen, same as everyone else! 100s lines of graphics pipeline code on each, including a shader 🙃Between codec patents & platform NDAs, Ogg might be all you can do with fully free s/w

Godot only supports Ogg vorbis video, which is like a clown codec

I've also been thinking about an animated intro (I know, why do I create this much work for myself), but to be honest I'm not even sure how you reliably do video playback in games these days. I realised there's a reason so many games used Bink back in the day

Thrilled to have collaborated with an amazing team on the development of this game!! 🎮Working with such talented individuals has been an incredible experience! #GameDev #RevolutionSoftware #brokensword #sounddesign

@ultrabrilliant That's surely more than 1 CD??

Just randomly unlocked an ancient memory of owning this, but there's next to no information about it online. I'm guessing it was just a UK thing.

My better half (@tanya_riarey) drew the icons (and a lot of George & Nico) in the new #BrokenSwordReforged ❤️

A remaster of the first Broken Sword is out today. I've played a bit and Revolution have done a great job updating the art without losing any of the personality of the original. Perfect excuse to revisit MacDevitt's, gaming's greatest pub. store.steampowered.com/app/2544110/Br…

What a great day to grab a #brokensword keyring - newly reproduced from the 1996 launch! (and help 🇺🇦!) 👉ko-fi.com/s/f6b9701eec ❤️RTs

@CoolsomeXD Fixed, I hope! Thanks for spotting it.

@CoolsomeXD On it 😮

Broken Sword Reforged doesn't have trophies?

Thought for the day: we have the most lovely board of Trustees. Thank you so much @a_fitzsimmons @dermot_daly @matthewbloch Laura Rolinson, Viren Swami & Hannah Phelan, for everything you do.

More soak testing…

@schillingc Impressed at the Original vs Pro graphics comparison

@TGNProfessor @schillingc It's the hustle we signed up to!! One year out of every 5 out of work. 🫢 Maybe more? Who knows? It's all just up and down man.

@schillingc It will look great in the beach house I just moved to.

@mrsambarlow @leighalexander The screenshot in the original article is also 100% the box shot from the VHS board game Atmosfear 🔮
