@BionicDodo Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm very glad to hear it. I'll keep updating it for as long as I can!

Back to Numan Athletics, having played the Arcade Archives version for a bit, there's some new features here- the Hi-Score Mode allows you to pick any event (serving as a makeshift practice mode) and you can also set the left stick to serve as the build-power buttons, so you can play the game like Daley Thompson's Decathlon if you like.

Re: Top Hat Gaming Man, Lady Decade And A Photo Of Ray Harryhausen

(i put this comment on the kim justice viedo but sure, let's put it here, why not)

both top hat and lady decade's videos seem to steal from all over the internet- text (mostly wikipedia), images, videos, translations- with attribution never in the videos themselves, hidden in the description so to the common viewer it sounds like they've done it all themselves. and even then they're full of near-comical errors. it was only a matter of time before they stole from the wrong person. why the rest of this scene put up with their antics for this long is a true riddle of the sphynx.

speaking as an outsider of the uk retro gaming youtube scene whose work has been ripped off by top hat gaming man in the past, i can only hope this incident gives everyone in the community pause for thought on properly crediting and sourcing the information and resources that make their content even possible. there's nothing more defeating than finding out some youtuber has stolen your work wholesale for profit (and let's face it, with these two that's what it was all about) and it's even more defeating to find out they wear a stupid hat while they do it.
