After 7 months of work, my latest project: a full English patch of Kingdom Hearts Mobile! You can play all 8 of these previously-lost mini-games, in English for the first time.
There's puzzle games, card games, rhythm games, and more, and even canon lore!

Thanks to @aid1043.bsky.social and Penguinstrain, Columns Jewel has an English patch! This was a #Columns keitai game that was preserved last year. It has a story mode, where Sana travels back in time after wearing a mysterious bracelet. There's also a puzzle mode with 40 puzzles!

After a big project, I offer a small break for some laughs. This is the funniest Kingdom Hearts world, though you probably don't remember it:

You think Kingdom Hearts is confusing because you lack the patience for a 20-year interwoven story.
I think Kingdom Hearts is confusing because "Dark Assault" is localized as "Dark Strike" but "Dark Ammo" is localized as "Dark Assault."
We are not the same: you clearly have spent your time better.

I've been thinking about KH2 Pride Lands.
Usually, Reaction Commands let you attack the enemy that prompted them – other enemies can get caught in the crossfire, but that's incidental.
But all three Pride Lands Heartless have RCs that explicitly let you target anyone on the battlefield.

Apparently, this Monday is the two-year anniversary of my channel! I never believed a simple V CAST video would grow into something like this.
I have a big project that ever-so-coincidentally wrapped up last month, so I guess we're having an anniversary special. Stay tuned for more info!

Did you know? A specific group of Shadows is actually the strongest encounter in Kingdom Hearts, and it only requires a little bit of squinting to make that true.

I'm back from my summer hiatus, time to get back to work. Today I fixed #KingdomHearts Rhythm Parade!
The user's avatar *should* be on the left, but the servers are shut down, making it wait forever for animations that will never come. I bypassed this part of the code, restoring the attack cycle!

The first chapter of Edotan (えどたん) was preserved by 2Soulz! Originally released on keitai before being ported to smartphones, Edotan is a detective visual novel by #Capcom. It takes many elements from #AceAttorney. Edotan received a keitai-exclusive sequel, which remains lost to time.
