Wizard with a Gun is a great looking isometric shooter with crafting etc that just came out. It has a free demo on Xbox (and maybe other places - I gotta check the Switch).

Psyched to try this one out. Check out these screenshots!

US businessman is wannabe ‘warlord’ of secretive far-right men’s network

The founder and sponsor of a far-right network of secretive, #men-only, #invitation-only fraternal lodges in the US is a former industrialist who has frequently speculated about his future as a #warlord after the collapse of America, a Guardian investigation has found.

Federal and state tax and company filings show that the Society for American Civic Renewal (#SACR) and its creator, #Charles #Haywood, also have financial ties with the far-right #Claremont #Institute.

SACR’s most recent IRS filing names Haywood as the national organization’s principal officer. Other filings identify three lodges in Idaho – in #Boise, #Coeur d’Alene and #Moscow – and another in #Dallas, Texas.

The “possibilities involving violence” that his "#Armed #Patronage #Network" might face, Haywood writes include “more-or-less open #warfare with the federal government, or some subset or remnant of it”.
Further on, Haywood writes: “At this moment I preside over what amounts to a extended, quite sizeable, compound, which when complete I like to say, accurately, will be impervious to anything but direct organized military attack”, adding that “it requires a group of men to make it work … what I call ‘#shooters’ – say fifteen able-bodied, and adequately trained, men.”
These “shooters”, Haywood explains, “can operate my compound, both defensively and administratively”, meanwhile, “I have the personality, and skills, to lead such a group.”

There's an INCREDIBLY cool looking traditional type roguelike being made by @synlogic called Slartboz that he describes as a "sci-fi post-apoc educational comedy adventure in the style of Fallout, Idiocracy, HHGG & The Princess Bride", and I'm totally here for it.

He just put up the first gameplay video on itch (where you can follow the progress of and/or contribute to the game) and this video includes "shootin, lazer pistols, lazer cannons/auto defense towers, monsters, eggs.." and more.

Have I done #TenGamesToKnowMe here yet? I forget.

If I have, this is an updated version for 2023. Here's mine, in no particular order.

* Centipede (my favorite game ever. Arcade version! Lemme shoot those bugs!)

* Black Widow (also the arcade version - I'm totally hooked on this one too, and it was a more recent discovery. When I go to an arcade with retro machines, I basically just want to play this and Centipede the whole time.)

* Wolfenstein 3D (a classic, still playable. Who doesn't love killing digital Nazis?)

* Diablo (1, 2, 3, 4, Immortal, any. Just choose one and I love it. What a series. Hooked.)

* Gun Nac (my favorite technical [ship based] shootemup-- if you don't count Centipede as a shootemup. A rare one for the NES. If you like shooters and get the chance to play this, even emulated, don't miss it.)

* Wizodd (I love roguelikes and indie games, and this one is both. Just a cool, simple game that's definitely beatable and replayable. But you won't beat it every time!)

* Mario Kart (another that it doesn't really matter the series, although the Wii one might be my favorite, closely followed by the SNES one. I definitely play the Wii one the most.)

* Doom (1 or 2, preferably. I feel like those are most classic, and those are the ones that got me hooked. More recent ones I'm not as much about, but those first two.. wow.)

* Beam Rider (I'm throwing this in because it's an amazing game for the Atari 2600. Maybe one of the best ones. I feel like it gets overlooked with all the other great ones on the system, River Raid, etc.)

* Beekyr Reloaded (okay, this is a weird one. I was tempted to put Neko Navy or Q-Yo Blaster or another modern indie shootemup that I love in here somewhere instead, but Beekyr is too rad. I love bees and I love shooters, so this one was definitely for me, despite its creator not really being happy with its port.)

Those are my ten, and I'm sticking with them. (At least for today ). There are SO MANY other games I love, but these ten are huge.

Shots. That is all.... #shots #whisky #shooters
