Crownie is gender goals to the extreme I need her so much.

I finished it.

14. Season of Fools

Finally finished my good friend @dsmorrigan.bsky.social 's mecha novel. I...liked it quite a bit! I'm not particularly attuned to far-future scifi, it takes a lot for me to buy in, but this did manage to do it. The first part of the novel is buoyed by some fascinating--

13. Grow Up! My Little Dragon ~The Dreams Seen by Those with Scales~

The rarest of rare things...an FGO event that isn't completely terrible! Truly 2025 is shaping up to be something else.

I NEED ASPASIA AND NARANTUYA YURI NOW!

This wasn't as good as So Long, Adele in terms of storytelling, vibes, or themes, but it was still above-average. Zubayr is a hilarious character, and I think the story truly excelled when it was playing on the goofy mummy hijinks,

8. Bang Dream It's MyGO!!!!!
10/10 no notes. Every girl has so much life, so much interiority it's crazy. Of particular note is Anon, a character I can only dream of matching in my own fiction. Cannot wait to see what Ave Musica has in store. Shouldn't have expected less from Flip Flappers' writer.

6. Hugtto Precure(rewatch)
I watched this originally when it was airing, and my thoughts haven't changed. EmiRuru are one of the greatest yuri couples of all time, when the show is focused on them or Anri, its legit electric. When its not...well...Nono Hana is a fun lead. The epilogue didn't happen.

5. Revue Starlight the Movie
Prettiest movie I've seen in two weeks(saw Mononoke: Phantom in the Rain on Christmas). Basically just season 2 of the show with an emphasis on resolving all the character arcs, its fucking awesome. Would have loved to see in a theatre. Kaoruko is me.

4. Mullet Madjack
A 10 minute arcade experience dragged out to 3 hours. Exceptionally pretty game, although it'd be cool if the game didn't keep trying to hit you over the head with WOW ISN'T THE ANIME AESTHETIC COOL.

2. Dishonored 2
I found the first Dishonored rather uninteresting, but fun. This one became cloying. Emily's powers are generally less interesting than Corvo's in the first game, the already-threadbare story is a step down in every way, the Chaos system is a mess. The time travel level ruled though.

1. No Case Should Remain Unsolved
Tried this one after seeing it show up on a bunch of jp dev's best of list for next year. Cool little 2-hour detective game. Sorting out the testimony and memories was fun, and it did manage to make me tear up at the end.
January 4, 2025 at 11:45 PM
I'm in this one! It's the first piece of fiction I've released in four years, and it really does mean a lot to me.

My novelette is an action-packed t4t romance novelette involving a dumbass egg magical girl and an evil general bent on TOTAL TRANSGENDER DOMINATION. It may or may not be very silly.

Hey #authorsky #booksky what are your non-book inspirations and influences?

The specific mix of high-concept sff mixed with extremely heightened emotions found in old light novels, eroge, and their descendants forever has its hold on me. There's a specific vibe to them I dream of capturing myself.

8. An Untitled Story
Many people would list Celeste as a goty, and its certainly good. But to my part, I do think Maddy's best game is still her metroidvania An Untitled Story. Its probably the platonic of a great metroidvania, platforming game design at its best.

7. Team Fortress 2
If you weren't there in 2007, you literally cannot understand. The tf2 I grew up on does not exist anymore, and the world is worse for it.

6. Dokapon Kingdom
My friends in high school played a full game of Dokapon. It took the entire school year, some 200 hours of gameplay, but at the end of it...I won. To this day, I've never felt more accomplishment at a game. It made us better friends too, contrary to memes. The perfect part game.

5. Corruption of Champions 2
Pulling as much from Rance-inspired J-fantasy as it does from furry fandom and traditional D&D fantasy tropes, which adds a specific playfulness most w-eroge lack. Yeah, its pure smut, but like...its good smut!

Too much pregnancy though. Please stop.

4. Half-Life 1
While 2 is remembered more for its infinite accomplishments and memes, Half-Life 1 represents the epitome of arcade fps gameplay to me. There's a specific frenetic nature to the game that I just adore, and its probably the best-paced game every made. Not a single wasted moment.

3. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni
Literally saved my life. Ryukishi07 has a masterful understanding of abuse and all its vectors, which gets further explored in Umineko but here it's just so raw, so fucking real.

2. Arknights
(So Long Adele because its the best sidestory) Another not-surpise. I shrimply think that other games should aspire to this level of political allegory and nuance(only one game matches it). The animal people help too. Also its the best tower defense game ever made don't @ me.

1. It's Demons Roots. If you've talked to me on discord ever in the past year, you know I'm not normal about Demons Roots. Fucking play it. Deathpolca x Lily Killer best ship every year forever.
