Good news! I found an HTML guide I don't hate and finally got around to polishing up a NeoCities page! Right now it's just my social media links and a FAQ, but I can finally start to evolve it a bit.

I should really pick up Megaten again. Thinking of SMT1 but there's like four different English versions to try
- SNES
- GBA
- PS1
- an RPGMaker fan remake

I dunno why but every night I've laid in bed lately my body will just break out into itching and my hairbrush is the only thing strong enough to make it stop.

When the AI bubble pops I'm gonna have to sort the people who used it incidentally from the people who actively defended it like I had to do with everyone who jumped onto NFTs. Gotta differentiate people getting suckered from the genuinely delusional.

Next time I see a movie in a theater I'm gonna bring a slingshot & shoot it at people who pull out their phones

Finally got a Switch 2. It's got the shiny GameCube library, mouse support, and a way better screen than my regular Switch. All the more reason to continue GenUlt on it.

But instead I'm replaying FF1 on my Vita. I got priorities man

Me as a kid: Why buy a console? I have a PC!

Me now: Buying this console is insurance for 10-20 years from now when people can easily jailbreak it

My tablet is a newer version of Android than my phone and this irrationally annoys me. I use my phone way more than my tablet, why does it get the newer OS?

Kaizen is the first Zach game where I have a Steam friend to compete in scores with and I feel so smug every time I do better in everything.

In the Matrix Software ports of FFV&VI there's a mechanic where if you start casting cure but win an encounter before it goes off, it'll wait for the cure to cast before doing its victory fanfare. No other version of any other game in the series does this
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago

so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

Excuse me Zach Barth why does your latest engineering puzzle game begin with a DDR minigame

Meatloaf hours. Topped it with bacon, which almost makes up for me completely forgetting to season it

Watching 101 Dalmations for my first time and the biggest twist is they don't actually have 99 puppies all at once. Almost feels like a scam but they do in-fact deliver on the number.

Lumines Arise is a very cool game however I keep trying to play like it's Puyo Puyo and it's very much not Puyo Puyo

Wild conversation I had a couple days ago

"This game had a feature that undermined what would've been a cool moment"

>You can turn it off

"That's not a great solution. It's on by default and I'm not gonna know preemptively that it's gonna ruin something."

>You're stupid. Just turn it off.

Everything I'm hearing about Gmail & Google makes me really glad I use Thunderbird like a web dev condom. Definitely gotta hop off the Gmail train soon though

Thinking about trying out a RTwP RPG and the more I think about it the more I probably just gotta pick up Warcraft 3 again.
