“Don't let anyone
Mislead you like you are nobody
'Cause you mean so much to me”
I love being inspired by my old music only to find that the sheet music and source files disappeared because they were created during my “this HDD will never fail” era before I started backing things up 😭

On one hand, I’m glad FF7 Rebirth is coming to switch 2, but just due to how large the game is, I really wish it had a real physical edition

this “What a Mario World” mix brings me such “joy”

Get it? Cuz the artists name is John “Joy” Tay-you know what forget it lol

Time for the yearly replay of Metaphor: ReFantazio

I really wish this game got a DLC expansion. As much as I dislike Atlus doing unnecessary re-releases, I feel like this game could benefit from a "royal" version

I've gotta get better at translating things to lower resolutions lol

On the topic of AI, is there anything really stopping someone from training their AI on the images from the Bluesky firehose?

Goodness gracious, Trials of Mana has such a great soundtrack

So far, Nuclear Fusion and Powell are my favorites

For the sake of comparison, this is the interface I'm borrowing from

I was working on upgrading my February 2021 project with the interface of a 2023 project, but i got distracted after finally figuring out how to have a font at a higher resolution than the game, so that's neat

Hark, my YouTube feed seems to be stuck between 2007 - 2013 and while I’m not necessarily complaining, I never thought I’d get nostalgic for AMVs

For reference, my most complete demo was built in February 2021, held together by hopes and dreams

I have no idea how the battle system didn't break while recording that, but I've recently learned that messy but functional code is better than pretty but non-functional code

I think maybe instead of continuing to try to make something brand new and unique, I should probably focus on remaking my first (actually functional) prototype in Godot 4.6 and go from there

At this point in development, a working demo is better than a pretty demo

Even in this concept, it feels like despite trying to simplify my battle system, things just get too complicated. It's cool to give each party member a unique gimmick, but a simple idea like dice-based skills can spiral out of control if you're not careful

Just gotta start with the absolute basics
My updated and simplified battle interface is almost complete, but something still feels… off? Almost like something’s missing, but it could just be the dead space or maybe the buttons need to be resized

Well dang, #Godot 4.6 looks sick

Love finding out about games released for older consoles that I’ll never experience on original hardware because they cost too much secondhand and have not or will not be re-released or remastered for modern platforms

Something people don’t tell you about working retail is the borderline PTSD you get from certain sounds

Hearing the door chime or ringtone from my old job still makes me flinch like Pavlov’s Employee

I did not expect to like #Hytale as much as I do, but me and my friends have been playing it all weekend and it has SO much potential. Character customization is fun, the world has interesting structures to explore, and while it has its issues, overall, it's a fun game, even in early access
January 25, 2026 at 11:26 PM
This is not at all what I planned to make, but I enjoy how it turned out. I *might* expand on it in the future if I get any ideas though

When I think about it, #MetaphorReFantazio and #Expedition33 both have similar things to say about fiction, and based on Metaphor’s ending, I feel like Will would side closer with Verso

I made this song in 2022 as a sort of song that would play in battle on a boat in a raging storm

Honestly, I feel like this has some potential with a little more work

Y’know, getting a shock bracelet to help with bad habits SOUNDS nice until your brain goes “ouch that hurts, I’m not wearing THAT again”

It has just occurred to me that there may one day be a generation that has no idea what flash games were

I recently realized I hadn’t heard moonlight sonata in full and after doing so, my new goal is to write something with just as much emotion

What a beautiful piece of music
