mobile
four design mockups of a music player mobile app. songs featured: Local (Girls like us) by underscores & gabby start, Taking over the Dancefloor by Nadia Oh, Infatuation by SOPHIE, and Guilty Pleasure by Chappell Roan. the album art is prominently featured and its dominant colors spill over the screen. there are lyrics and queue management views that allow other people in the same listening session as you to add comments to lyric lines and queue items. when listening with others, a capsule containing everyone's avatar appears as a sort of "balloon" attached to the playhead in the seek bar.

a mysterious looking program that's drawing many copies of sqlite3 amalgamation source code on top of each other in variously colored panes. some nondescript debugging information is present

this is probably a wildly uninformed opinion but modern games look worse to me somehow, maybe it's the TAA and pervasive use of upscaling, but everything just looks fuzzier
