Ello ello ello, this is my account for Nightlights, creator of assorted synth musics. There's a whole bunch of my stuff on Bandcamp and, at time of writing, my latest release was the Atom Dance EP here. 😊

Games I completed in 2025!

Hidden cat games obviously feature heavily again this year, but even without them I still got through a fair few!

I had a joke about Heracles, but I’ve decided to give it a trial run first…

Recently I released #Barbarians for #msdos. This release was for the #DOSember Game Jam, a 3-month game jam for MS-DOS preceding the month-long DOSember streaming event for 2025. cyningstan.itch.io/barbarians-dos #gamedev
A screenshot from the recently released Barbarians for MS-DOS. It uses a similar layout to the versions ZX Spectrum and some Psion pocket computers. A central main map is surrounded by various information panels: on the left, information about the empire as a whole, on the right, information about the last referenced map square, and underneath, the game's name and a one-line prompt and menu display.

Nowhere in this article does it mention the fact that Bonfire Night was actually a seperation from Halloween in the first place, with bonfires previously taking place on the 31st of October as part of Halloween….and Dr. Clarke obviously never went to Scotland and Ireland before bloody E.T. 😡
Is Bonfire Night slowly being replaced by Halloween?
Halloween’s increasing popularity could challenge Bonfire Night as England's autumn favourite.

I never imagined when I was sitting reminiscing a few weeks ago with my great-nephew about all the stuff we'd done throughout the years that it would be among the last conversations I would ever have with him. 💔
