Cyberdyne Warrior, Commodore 64, 1989. Scale creep was always a problem, apparently, even back in 1989. Look at the size of that Beakie in comparison to the player sprite at...

Sorry for the delay; my computer decided that it wasn't having any of this "internet" business yesterday. To make up for it, I've done a couple of extra #Dungeon23 rooms. 17. A...

Week two of #Dungeon23! Crikey. 10. The ceiling in the shaded area is sagging. Poking, prodding, loud noises, and other dramatic activity will cause it to collapse, burying...
