I make stuff. Sometimes it's drawn, sometimes it's pixellated, sometimes it's playable, and other times it's spat out of a 3D printer.

Now that videos are a thing, might as well put up the trailer for Buck Up And Drive!, that stupid car game I did a while ago, with a sequel in the works!

Don't mind me, just goofin' with Doom a bit. May goof some more. It's fun. Specially goofin' those goofs in the goofer.

What started as a way to automate launching Blood's janky expansion somehow is now my boomer shooter launcher. Needs more logos, but everything on that list is launching without a problem, and quite quickly at that.

Now bad for a first time making a TUI in bash, I suppose.

Who'da thunk it Hexen of all things is what gets me to experiment with gzdoom. It's downright criminal the Fighter's gauntlets are so under-utilized, so doing something about it.

Still rough as hell but eh, not bad for only messing with it for a few days (counting the UI bits there too).

A more presentable version of that #3dprinted #mechanicalkeyboard I did a while ago. Now with 100% more numpad! Not enough of that in the mech keeb scene!

First time giving ortholinear keys a go, this... will take a bit of getting used to lol

Momentum's been great and if it keeps up they're getting the required sigs way ahead of schedule. But that's no reason to get cozy. On the contrary, that's all the more reason to be a pain in the ass about it, hence the reposting lol #stopkillinggames
If like me you care about media being usable after official support ends, check it:

If you're an EU citizen leaving your signature's quick enough. If you're not, you can at least pass it around. Either way thanks! Bit more info in 🧵

Yay, finally made a custom #mechanicalkeyboard!... and it tiny lol

Visually it's still very WIP, but the function's all there. I'll be daily-driving this for a while, see how it feels and think about a final look for it.

More info in thread 'cause screw it, I need the typing practice lol #diy #qmk

If this ain't the tiniest dpad in the world it's gotta be close, right? #diy #dpad #3dprinting

Got myself a Watchy (v2.0 clone off Aliexpress) and slapped a 803040 1000mah battery on it for the lols, so designed a shell and strap for it.

Also uploaded it to Thingiverse if anyone else with one of these wants to make one: www.thingiverse.com/thing:6971561

Bit of a non-functioning test build to check on ergonomics and whatnot. You know what, feelin' alright, think I'll go ahead and print in higher quality and... well, less gray. And of course get to solder stuff up. #DIY #trackball #arduino
March 4, 2025 at 1:52 PM
Yay, finally landed on a design. That shell still needs tweaks to make it expandable long-term, but for now that'll do.

Buckled and instead of DIYing the ball imma just use a 52.5mm billiards ball. They have decent color choices for those on aliexpress. #DIY #3dprinting #trackball

Started printing with flexibles, so made a new phone case. Not only looks subjectively alright, the slits in the back let me hook in my amp (velcro got annoying after a while). Let's see how this holds long-term. #3dprinting #DIY
February 10, 2025 at 8:02 PM
Figured instead of spending so much time trying to make this trackball thing perfect from the get go and never actually get anything done, I'd instead make SOMETHING and iterate from there. Bit wasteful, but I do already have a few things I wanna immediately improve, so guess it's working lol
