@IndieGameJoe @blockbuster I would also like the younger generation to experience the waiting time when you discover that the last person didn’t rewind the film when returning it

Two indie devs made a game where you run your own video store in the early 90s. It’s currently the #5 top-selling game on Steam.
- Rent out VHS tapes & manage customers
- Charge Late & Broken Fees
- Upgrade & customise your store
It’s called Retro Rewind - Video Store Simulator

@exQUIZitely I can still clearly hear the “Oh No” self destruct exclamation in my head.

Lemmings turned 35 this year (a few days ago)...
Not just one of the most unique games ever, but also one of the best. When Lemmings hit the market in February 1991, it felt like a completely new concept - something never done before. At least I don’t remember any game that came even remotely close.
On top of that, it had an incredibly gorgeous style, beautiful graphics, the cutest animated pixel characters, and one of gaming history’s most recognizable soundtracks. I remember one review giving it a 99% rating with the comment that “we need to leave the 1% off so there’s room for something better - if it ever comes” (paraphrased). In all the years since, you’d have a hard time finding a more unique concept that’s also so very playable.
The early levels are super easy, basically a walk in the park, gently introducing the idea and controls. But once you reach the later levels, boy, does it get tough. It never felt unfair, though - the key was smart usage and timing of the different Lemming types. That’s why the game was also great with friends: you’d sit around the screen and try to figure out the best strategy together.
Lemmings became one of the most sold games ever on the Amiga. Deservedly so. This game is timeless and 99% perfection.

@DanCanobbio You can take the boy out of Essex, but you can’t Essex out of the boy. Elite level verbal evisceration, honed in the the local boozers.

@HeritageMatterz Prodigious talent along with Ichica Nito.
For those like myself that admire the technique / sound but prefer things simplified and mainstream(ish) I highly recommend the super talented Raul Midon and his track ‘State of Mind’, which also throws in a great trumpet impression.

@ade_oladipo1 I’m a big fan and think he could step up to captain the side if he sticks around and carries on this form. But to compare him to one of the greatest midfielders in modern times already, is pretty ludicrous.

@itvfootball Why are we so preoccupied with finding reasons to disallow goals these days? If you can’t find a reason to disallow it after 10 seconds, just let the goal stand. VAR is ridiculously inefficient, makes assistant referees less decisive and costs more for superfluous officials.

@rocknrollofall The Beatles are the most overrated cherished band in the history of music.

@thecoralband Evokes childhood memories of listening to my parents playing Diana Ross and The Supremes vinyls.

@RoyRogers_HTMS I’m not quite sure what I just watched, but I couldn’t stop it before the end.

@Rainmaker1973 This is a case of excessive over engineering to solve a simple problem. Also, I want one.

@OneWayMusicX He also did a little bit of band management for Suede in the early part of their career.

I truly don’t know how they could make this sound worse. One of the greatest videos of all time

@BoxingShrew @210bam @naoyainoue_410 @JaronEnnis @TeofimoLopez @Realdevinhaney @ShakurStevenson My Top 10 that I’ve seen live (5 U.K. and 5 global to mix it up) would be something along the lines of:
Mayweather
Pacquiao
GGG
Nunn
Klitschko
Benn
Honeyghan
Hatton
Joshua
Itauma (early days but I’m sure a retro in 10 years would have him on it).
