It’s a big old mess of people trying to business it up and even more people making stuff because they can and in some cases, simply because it’s funny. And the former has always dominated the mainstream perception of what games is, what games are, and it’s always been a pet hate of mine.

For real paper down to A10 size this doesn't make a significant difference... it does mean that for our purposes (i.e. fun purposes) the new sizes change a little:
* A21 paper and smaller is 0mm x 0mm
* A20 is 0mm x 1mm
* A19 is a 1mm square
* A18 is 1mm x 2mm
* blah
* A21 paper and smaller is 0mm x 0mm
* A20 is 0mm x 1mm
* A19 is a 1mm square
* A18 is 1mm x 2mm

Found some interesting stuff on this;
Purging Stone is a "Curse-resolving Stone"

Lokey Souls writes heavily about the style of descriptions and how localisation affects them, even with a section specifically about Purging Stones:

While playing, my computer crashed at 2am. Thankfully it was right after I copy-pasted a list of my conclusions into Notepad, which, mercifully, was still in my clipboard when my computer started back up

Once you realize that there is an infinite amount of work to do, it gets more manageable.

We get enough from the IHDR block to know it's a 1146x292 pixel image in TrueColor!
The starting bytes \x89PNG\r\n are missing from the Base64 though, must be cropped off on the left.
Fun fact: IHDR doesn't have to be the first block, but it usually is

My favourite part of the game was definitely how rewarding it is to pay attention and properly read the Q results!
Going down a rabbit hole that looks like empty flavor but actually ends up leading to something pertinent is properly satisfying.
