Fantastic... my parents used to show us Monsieur Hulot films quite a lot when I was a child!

This weekend I watched (at long last) two 1960s classics, "Dr Strangelove" and "The Graduate". Highly satisfactory weekend of viewing.

You apparently wrote a PM to me on 21 Dec but then deleted your message, which I assumed was intentional. If you did delete it then fair enough. But I'm just letting you know in case this was some sort of glitch.

Goodness me this is a mammoth release!! Well done!! There's just so much fun in this!! And somehow it really pulls in influences from all the original games and many mods, putting its own stamp on things whilst delivering surprise after surprise. I'm seeing things I never thought I'd see here! Amazi...

Merry Merry Christmas everyone! You're a wonderful bunch of people who bring optimism to me year after year (well into a third decade). I hope you all do Christmassy things, but do them in a way that is - even if just subtly - infused in Keen-ness. There is an eight-year old genius in all of us. (Un...

You know what Syllypryde, I am beginning to look forward to whatever mod it is you're looking forward to, too.

Looks incredible as always. You're very prolific, a real hero of the modding community!

I like your conscious use of the rougher non-dithered art, it's such a unique and artistic style.

Just saw the LGR video on this recent release for the "Evercade" console, of heavily reworked/reverse engineered versions of the classic Duke games. They've seemingly done some amazing stuff including modern-day screen resolutions, enhanced colour palettes (remniscent of what we talked abo...

Although I don't participate in frenzied materialism for Black Friday, my one tradition attached to this day is to listen to Megadeth's extremely violent "Good Mourning/Black Friday".

I'm late to the party but really I have to say "Prelude" is a fantastic Vorticons mod. It speaks to the "less is more" adage in modding. It is uncomplicated, playable and crucially, partly due to being a small-scale project, gives a mediocre player like me a chance to play it to ...

A proper upbringing! This is neat!

What a delight! Two of the best bands! And for each, one of my absolute favourites of their numbers.

Lovely fluid, laid back melodic baseline playing, liked and subscribed!

Very interesting reading, from my perspective specialising in the field of Elderly Care Medicine. Sounds like your struggles were extremely complex at that time. I feel like some of these things would turn out differently in Western Europe compared to the US, due to a very different health and socia...

This is indeed good fun! Mostly has a "levelpack" vibe rather than outright "mod" or "total conversion", but its got lots of fun level design ideas. The mini-"puzzle" to get the bear point item above the green spikes in the garg chasing level is simple but qui...

I must play this soon and report back! In the meantime, you mention you included 24 levels, which is more than the game typically allows. The persistence of the level graphic on the map (rather than the DONE sign) is a common occurrence with various levels numbered above 16. I do recall inconsistenc...
