I have no excuses for this. Was sat there earlier having a quick blast on Punchy, which totally is not Hunchy, which is totally not Hunchback.
It’s a game where each port has its own, erm, character. None of them are especially grand though the C16 version is incredibly arcade-beautiful to look at and I do sort of love it. The spectrum version really is quite inexplicable tho.
As for how I got from there to this picture? I’m very tired and sore. For some reason, this is what happens. Sorry.
Look at this fella! I don’t really think anyone here has thought through the whole “size of person/robot” and platform thing so they’d only really need a little nudge, rather than a fully fledged bop.
What a guy tho. Somewhere between Metal Mickey and a KLF definitely-not-a-Dalek, complete with spinny lug holes. Totally punchable.

Sometimes it’s a sketch, a review, an article about videogames, a pointer to something Rob finds cool. Whatever, really. Expect anything, Rob’s tired of being a brand online and so it’s just stuff and things these days. Nice stuff and things, mind you.
