It was genuinely amusing watching them trying to play Horace goes Skiing on Go 8 Bit.

Never watched that show but I’m a big, big fan of Ellie Gibson.

They are on U-stream (Dave, Alibi, Drama etc catch up service).

Plenty worth a watch but a few are a bit duff.

Should add watch the one with Tomb Raider as Ellie Gibson is on top form for that one.

Will seek it out. Loved her stuff on Eurogamer and enjoy the Scummy Mummies too.

Anyone playing Silksong yet?

My daughter was on Silksong this evening, it's beautiful in motion, some fabulous animation.

Hollow Knight had a wonderful atmosphere. Genuinely unsettling and disturbing in places. Played it for 30 odd hours although I was nowhere near 100%ing it after the main story finished.

Will definitely get on Silksong in the winter.

Been playing on the Switch a bit and I'm currently addicted to infuriating pool game, Side Pocket from SNES.

Nice! I built my first in December last year. 4070 Super and a 7950x3D. Also been using it as a media server now.

Been putting in a few hours with Dragon Age: The Veilguard. It's OK, typical Bioware RPG stuff.

I need to take a look at that. Worked with Bioware throughout the '90s, great developers and some excellent games.

I've always connected with their style, so do look out for Bioware releases.

Supermassive games hired out the pub near work for the whole afternoon and evening today until closing. Hope nobody wants any tech support!

Free demo of the match element of my new game - Niutmeg available now.

The first challenge is Oxford in the Milk Cup Final. Would be amazing for you folks to give it a go and let me know what you think.

This demo is ONLY showing off the match element, not the full management part of the game.

Any plans for release on other platforms? Or is that depending on how the PC version goes?

Our new Star Wars game released its second trailer yesterday, reception going down nicely!

Xenon 2. Master System 2.

Xenon 2. Master System 2.

I had that when it came out on the Atari ST. Loved it at the time, but it wasn't as good as the previous one which is one of the best Bitmap Brothers games (Speedball 2 being the best).

Speedball 2 is probably the height of western civilisation
