Dragon Bones – One last dance

As mentioned in my previous dev blog, the animation system used in Blobbit Push was created using a piece of software called Dragon Bones. At the time it worked great but over the years it appears to have been neglected by the developers. So much so that there no longer appears to be a download […]

If you have been following my Colouring in an Amiga 1000 YouTube series you may have noticed there’s been no updates for a while. Half of Part 7 was recorded and edited mid January with the last segment all set to be recorded early February, the focus being the external drive. That was until I […]

Wormhole Dungeon

It greatly delights me to say I appear to have found myself working with Tony Warriner on his rather lovely game Wormhole Dungeon. But what is it you are doing on this game then Stoo? I don’t hear you ask… Ahh it be pixel art mate, more specifically I’m adding my touch to the game […]

Datahits Rewound – C64Audio Free!

Back in those 80s when computer game music was often just beeps and blips, there was an emergence of a musical style which was notably recognised by the infamous C64 SID chip.

Windows10 PC Self Awakening

I’ve noticed a strange problem with my office PC of late, well I say of late it’s more like for the past year, the issue is very on and off. Sometimes it does this, sometimes it doesn’t with no real apparent notable reason.

Part 5 Already – A1000 in colour

Part 5 of my video series following my process with colouring in an Amiga 1000 illustration I previously scribbled for the Colouring Book I worked on back in 2021. In this episode I focus on the highly repetitive task of shading up the keyboard which through the marvel of time-lapse can be watched without the […]

Colouring in an Amiga 1000 (Part 4)

I think I’ve finally settled into a process that works for me. As mentioned in my previous blog entry about my journey into my video making antics I have learnt a lot in a relatively short time on how best to go about. For this one I think subsequent videos, I’ve taken to narrating as […]
