I cannot stress how important Rebecca has been for trans gamedevs. I wouldn't be here if not for her and her wife.

Help if you can.

We've been adding lots of polish and flourish with our extra time on Demonschool. This before and after video of maxing relationships should give you a good idea.

Before: A small kiss decal. That's all we had time for.

After: Full-on shoujo manga animatic.

After, what, five or six years(?), I'm blogging again! Just for fun, because I have a lot of random thoughts about games that don't quite fit either at work or on the podcast, but have found a home on our eclectic little bazaar of a website 💗

How about a new website post to enjoy with your Sunday tea? This time, Rebecca is musing on finally finishing Blue Prince (maybe...?), and in the process being strongly reminded of a retro puzzle game she played in the '90s.

Impossible to disagree tbh

Ending up as a fan of a bunch of gacha games for a few select characters and stories really feels like I've become that "I read Playboy for the articles" joke 😅

Danganronpa/hundred line's Kodaka came to check out Demonschool at TGS but it was after hours and the machines were off. We're sending him a code and if he actually plays it we are going to spin around until we fall over.

Kazutaka Kodaka, wearing all black and clear glasses, makes a double peace sign alongside Neon Noroshi's Sam, Brian from Ysbryd, and Brandon from Necrosoft, all of whom are also making peace signs.

Today is my best friend's birthday (which she also happens to share with two of her own extended family members — and no there are no twins involved — just to show how popular it is!)

...I hope she forgives me for sending her this fun fact in a screenshot 😅

Bonus points though for this ridiculously lucky pull that got me a completley unexpected (but very welcome) Himeko Eidolon *and* finally allowed me to complete my 4-Star character collection in HSR, I was beginning to think I'd never get Sushang

A Honkai: Star Rail gacha pull screen featuring Himeko, Sushang, and Guinaifen.

It's been a wild couple of days in #HonkaiStarRail & #LoveAndDeepspace😅

My former gacha luck seems to have worn off lately, I'm waiting for pity guarantees and losing 50/50s left and right these days! But jealously saving up all my free pulls for new March and Zayne kits has paid off, I am pleased

Honkai: Star Rail's Evernight, a young woman with pink hair and a gothic aesthetic, stands in front of an ornate mirrored desk with a spiralling candle holder and book atop it; red petals swirl around.

Love and Deepspace's Zayne: God of Annihilation, a "semi-nude" (official description) man in an elabourate golden costume wielding a bow.

Controversially, bringing the *huge* QOL improvements from the other three collections to the original trilogy remasters was higher on my wishlist than AA7 at this point in time, so I for one am a happy camper today😅

Earlier today I had to pause and think about how to unhook both legs from around the arm of my office chair where I'd somehow managed to wedge them sooooo nope, I am not beating those allegations 😅
