#10pscore Hmm, this month's game seems to have too many letters in it's title. Namely "e,l,e,r". What a load of.... 65600. So much promised. So little delivered.

You know what. This is actually 1cc-able. Not sure I want to put myself through it, though. There is only 4 or 5 worlds and then, even though you have been digging down, you appear at the surface, in an end sequence worthy of a game of this stature. Yep, it's utter guff too!

With a journey planned tomorrow and the weather sounding ropey I decided, wrongly, to turn from my usual @SkyNews to @BBCNews. Turns out just a load of false promises of an indepth weather report that was never broadcast. Back to Sky I go.

#10pscore 1 game nets me 96100. It also reminds me why I've never liked this genre. Sorry guys, hard no from me.

Morning peeps. Whilst my blog is in a bit of a hiatus, fear not, as my good buddy, Victor has you covered. Please give him 5 minutes of your time, whilst you drink your brew and see what he is up to. He's always tinkering with something...

I’m not inclined to leave twitter - because if all the people who post nice stuff leave - then we are allowing the cess pit people take over - let’s fill this thing with art and books and birds and flowers and jokes etc - let’s swamp it with good stuff - reclaim it

#10pscore Solid first episode of the remodelled podcast @ShaunHolley and Alex. And a solid old school shooter to kick things off for the next episode. Was expecting the difficulty to ramp up after level 1, but it doesn't. Could be some huge scores here. For now, 372500.

#10pscore It's been a long time since I've enjoyed a game pick as much as this. Fabulously good simple addictive gem of a game. 188500 for tonight's effort.

Guns N' Roses - "Sweet Child O' Mine". Official Music Video. Rock Music will never be this good. 1980s was pure gold! #GunsNRoses

Things have changed at the Arcade. The time of jamma cabs and joysticks is long gone,replaced by them big-ass ticket machines. But fear not, brave retro face,as there are still venues out there catering to the type of guy who is now considering a stairlift bit.ly/3y4Sspn

#10pscore 67096. Used to love this on OG GB bitd, but on a cab, mine at least, it feels a little clumpy, and only one rotate option is no good. By the time advancing lines appear, the blocks fall too fast to physically move them to where I want them to go. #gettingold
