It was the first big project that I took on, and I can't tell you how many rounds of editing I went through. It's one of my most edited works because I was so concerned about getting it right.

Did you know that all of the characters that are in Tomodachi 8-in-1, especially in the narrative games, are the same characters that are in Terranova—Tourmaline, Cherry, Ephemeral Smile, and Sendaria. Do you miss them too?

Good piece! Also, shoutout to @illuminesce.net’s Interface Drama list that catalogues a bunch of these games that are built around the use of some sort of simulated OS interface: illuminesce.net/interface-dr...

Sadly, we didn’t have time to put it in Terranova, but hey, it’s here now, in Tomodachi 8-in-1! And you can already play it on illuminesce.itch.io/spooky-stylin. Please check it out and share with us your creations!

Every year, the exit of their haunted house was on our front lawn, so we would get screaming kids running by us going like AAAAHHHH~ and we'd be like, “Candy?” 🤣

Tomodachi 8-in-1 is an experimental arcade comprised of eight different retro games of early 2000s nostalgia. It consists of narrative games, mixtapes, things happening on old school cell phones, and of course this little dress-up game!

When I started to wear costumes, I would do a lot of male anime characters. That was my first experience with chest binding. But to be quite honest, the identity that I chose the most often in Halloween situations was dinosaur, which probably says more about me TBH 😛

I think for the queer community it’s an excuse to dress the way that you have always wanted to but be perceived as “normal.” Would you agree?
