Ello ello ello, this is my account for Nightlights, creator of assorted synth musics. There's a whole bunch of my stuff on Bandcamp and, at time of writing, my latest release was the Atom Dance EP here. 😊

Games I completed in 2025!

Hidden cat games obviously feature heavily again this year, but even without them I still got through a fair few!

I’ll send you a message on Twitch tomorrow…

Have quite the tale to tell 🙄

Hope you had a good Christmas though!?

😅 It really wasn’t….will update you soon. Can you get access to your messages on here yet?

I had a joke about Heracles, but I’ve decided to give it a trial run first…
I had a joke about Sisyphus but I couldn't roll with it.

Just got online after a day away and read this. Utterly shocking news…

So sad and sorry to hear about your loss, and my thoughts are with you, his family and all who knew him.

Thanks for the heads up!

Recently I released #Barbarians for #msdos. This release was for the #DOSember Game Jam, a 3-month game jam for MS-DOS preceding the month-long DOSember streaming event for 2025. cyningstan.itch.io/barbarians-dos #gamedev

Yes, the UK…

And Samhain / Sauin/ Halloween has been celebrated in Ireland and Scotland for longer than anyone can remember, or work out where exactly it started….but it’s so old we both use the same word…yes!
November 1, 2025 at 9:41 PM
That is a broad generalisation and its never as simple as that, but anyway….

Nothing has changed with my original point…Halloween has been celebrated in Scotland and all of Ireland, and even parts of England, way before bloody ET!

To be fair, Robb didn’t actually say it was, he only mentioned Celtic heritage…and when I said Ireland, I was including the whole Island, part of which is in Britain…and my British Imperialistic schools taught me the British Isles include Ireland, so…. But anyway, Halloween is feckin’ old!!
November 1, 2025 at 9:30 PM
Well, if they’re Lowland Scots then they probably still have Celtic connections, given I myself am descended from Lowland Scots, Irish, and Northern Viking tribes…

Most folk have a varied mix! Our ancestors got around a bit…😄
November 1, 2025 at 9:24 PM
Well, as a Scot, I don’t like to think of myself as British either, really, but unfortunately I still am….

Apologies then if you don’t identify as being part of the British Isles. Regardless, Irish culture and heritage is still widely embedded in Britain, and Halloween is an age old tradition!
November 1, 2025 at 9:20 PM
I imagine a lot do, given that Celtic heritage is throughout the entire British Isles…

I’m really not sure what point you’re trying to make here?

Are you arguing that the doctor was right, because Ireland isn’t part of the British isles, even though it is?
November 1, 2025 at 9:14 PM
Oh wait, no…Ireland is in the ‘British Isles’, so you’re actually completely wrong!
November 1, 2025 at 9:08 PM
But Northern Ireland is, and has the same Celtic traditions…
