Hi everyone! 🦋✨💫
A "meet the artist" drawing with the artists's sona at the bottom left corner holding an iPad with a drawing program open. It lists her name "ChoCho", her dev account "derpychocho", her art account "scribblychocho" as well as her age 30. She lists her likes which consists of stars, the night sky, city lights, her husband, creating for herself, butterflies, daydreaming, dancing, and sweets (with cheesy mamon being her favorite). She also lists her dislikes which consists of confrontations, drama artist's/writer's block, feeling too hot or cold, and gore (she's a bit squeamish!)

I can't believe that it took me this long to realise that it was called for, but "Moons in Crystal" now has contact damage! XD; 👉💥

And with the new year on the horizon, here’s some dev things I’d like to work on in 2026! 💜🦋💫
An image of my roadmap for 2026. To the left is a colored sketch of my sona holding a bunch of papers while smiling and closing her eyes. To the right is a list of items. ChoCho’s 2026 Dev Roadmap* *it’s more of a “I hope to do this”, really… ^^; Jams NaNoRenO, Worst VN Ever Jam, O2A2, Raise Your Voice Jam Projects The ??? Love Letter Project (aka “…n-nothing.”) What project? There is no project! If there WAS a project, I estimate it would take at least two years to develop, if not longer.

My Pokemon-esque roguelike has some fancy new screen transitions! I still haven't decided on a name but I'm tentatively referring to it as "Critterlocke."

OKAY, for no reason whatsoever, do we have any puzzle designers in the house? Simple 5-10 minute challenges in the style of a certain gentleman professor with a tall hat. If you can design but not program, I can do the programming, but if you can program, that's a bonus.

NaNoRenO just two months away! 😱

Now the question is… am I comfortable enough putting my current love letter project on hold for a month? Or do I skip 2026’s NaNoRenO?

Having bibingka for Christmas is one of my favorite things. I’ve never made it by myself, yet. But I hope to be able to one day!

I hope you all are enjoying the holiday season with you and yours. 💜

Omg this prototype might become a proper project… 😭

I went to my husband to brainstorm some scenarios—throwing spaghetti and seeing what stuck to the wall. And before we knew it… he had an idea and I instantly piggybacked off of that idea and…💡

Sam: Everywhere she goes, the stars follow her. Like moths throwing themselves at a 500 LED Christmas tree.

Max: Or like throwing 500 LEDs at a moth.

How funny that of all the characters to be inspired by... it ended up being these two absolute lunatics. 🌃🌠✨ #samandmax #selfinsert
A drawing of my sona running with Sam and Max while holding hands. The three of them are smiling, happy. My sona has light blue sparkles around her and in her eyes. She wears a butterfly necklace and a royal blue dress with constellations on the skirt. White stars blanket the top and bottom of the picture. In the background is a city at night. In the sky there are two bright stars shining together and a blue comet passing them by.

a tweet by toby fox that says "I didn't try to learn Japanese for a long time because I thought it would be too hard. But now I love learning it and I use it every day. If there's anything you want to learn, don't be stopped by thinking it'll be too hard! Try it! Game-making, music, art, language, anything!"

LRT Ooh! Thats such a cool jam!! I think I might join! Maybe. It would be a great way to gain a bit more confidence in working with voice actors!

The only two VNs that would fit the bill for this jam would be my NaNoRenO 2019 and 2025 entries. Something to think about, for sure!! ^^
