The other day, I went to Nara with my family.
The town was lively in a nice way, there were lots of wonderful shops, and even the deer were relaxed and calm.
Our daughter really enjoyed it too.

Autumn has arrived, and Kyoto is finally getting cooler. It’s easier to spend time now, but honestly, I prefer the heat ... laundry dries so much faster!

- At 47, you became a father.
And one day, your game was referenced inside DELTARUNE.
Life hasn’t been easy, but you’re a lucky one—and it only gets more interesting from here.

To my 40-year-old self:
You probably thought life would just wither away from here, but…
- At 44, you married one of your café customers.
- You discovered 16,000 precious photos taken by your grandfather.
- At 45, you released your own game and people loved it.

I’m truly honored that you even complimented the audio! I’m actually an old friend of moppin (Ojiro Fumoto), and I always dreamed of creating my own games just like he did.

I just got a video of my friend’s daughter, almost 3 years old, playing #RaindropSprinters. Moments like this really warm my heart. I wonder if my own daughter will play it someday too.

When playing with my 10-month-old daughter, I keep a few “game rules” in mind:
- Do things in sets of 4 (like lifting her 4 times)
- Always add sound effects
- Mix in rhythm changes and feints
- Laugh out loud together
She’s starting to sense what’s coming and laughs before it happens.

I was surprised to see GRADIUS ORIGINS listed as a similar game to mine. It’s truly an honor!

I’ve finally reached age 0x30. I’ve lived pretty haphazardly up to now, but I’ve made it this far thanks to the support of my friends. If I’d been on my own, I probably would have fallen apart a long time ago. I’m truly grateful every day.

I had planned to use this synth for composing much more, but then I discovered jazz piano—and got completely hooked on performing instead. The XV-5080 had been quietly resting in my studio for years, and now I truly hope it gets to shine again. Thank you!

As things evolve, systems seem to get more complicated, and so do our worries. I just want to live as simply as I can.

My 9-month-old daughter gets so excited when she reaches something new or grabs something she couldn’t before. I realized I react the exact same way when playing action games and pulling off something new.

And that special guest was none other than Sean Bialo ( @cosmicgem.bsky.social ), the composer of the amazing Donut Dodo soundtrack! At the same time, my café also welcomed Amaya of Cave Story and MURASAKI of Urban Myth Dissolution Center. Can you believe it?

The Gion Festival has begun here in Kyoto, and the city is bustling with excitement.
For us locals, it just doesn’t feel like summer unless we go to the festival.

Today, we hosted an RTA event at our café. RTA players are like superhumans!
Also, when I heard someone was going to do an RTA of E.T. on the Atari 2600, I couldn’t believe my ears. That’s insane.
