I finally found the settings for CRT shaders in DOSbox!
A screenshot of early gameplay in Commander Keen episode 4, with text DEMO at the top. Commander Keen, a child in a yellow football helmet, pink shirt, blue jeans, and red sneakers, runs on a path at the edge of a forest of giant trees with faces toward a smiling red ball. The image has a CRT-emulating filter applied to make the rendering less sharp and a little staticky.

Steam cover image of Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure, which is a mashup of the game logo (title text with titular green alien with red hair and red suction cup hands) with the original box art (titular green alien flying through space).

We're still on for DOSember!
I'm still debating between trying to do a "sampler" of games vs. picking one or two to focus on through December, but here's what I've gotten working so far.
An array of 10 video game banners with their names listed below the images. Commander Keen, Commander Keen 2: The Earth Explodes, Commander Keen 3: Keen Must Die! Commander Keen 4: Secret of the Oracle, Commander Keen 5: The Armageddon Machine, Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure Crystal Caves, Duke Nukem, Jill of the Jungle: Complete Trilogy Mystic Towers

There was a *lot* of whining in this one. We went to White Castle! Wait, that's not right.

Any unscheduled streams in between these dates will most likely be Hollow Knight.

There is an illustration of Mae (Night in the Woods, "paper cutout" cartoon style anthropomorphic cat) in her Witchdagger costume redone in a matching purple/green/blue color palette.

I knew I hadn't Completed™ Hollow Knight by a long shot, but I'm surprised by how many new achievements I've gotten on this playthrough.

I actually thought one of these was a glitch in the achievement system until I opened my old save and found that I don't have a certain item.
Screenshot of two steam achievements for Hollow Knight, text reproduced below. Yesterday: Strength: Defeat the Failed Champion (26.1% of players have this achievement) Oct 19: Execution: Defeat the Traitor Lord (32.8% of players have this achievment)

Processing stream recordings. I like how this preview makes it seem like I'm fending off the chaos.
A screenshot of Hollow Knight with many closeup images of a cat's face in rainbow colors around. The protagonist of the game is swinging his weapon while standing on a platform over spikes in Deepnest.

The beetle-masked knight from Hollow Knight looking up into the light in a kind of badass pose, insofar as a pose can be badass without seeing really any of the body. Text reads HOLLOW KNIGHT Image from the Steam store page for Hollow Knight.

Text: Outward Definitive Edition Two people in the foreground walk into an open area with green, white, and purple vegetation. There are mountains in the distance. The person in the front is wearing a tunic and carrying a mace, while the person in the foreground carries a backpack and a bow. Overall very adventurous vibes.

I should be drawing.
[meme: "no take, only throw" dog comic] Comic with 3 panels, each containing a drawing of a dog holding a ball in its mouth and wearing a collar. Panel 1: Dog looks sad, with text: I WANT TO BE BETTER AT DRAWING. Panel 2: A hand holding a pencil enters the frame and the dog looks angry, with text: NO PRACTICE! Panel 3: Closeup of the dog's face, still angry, with text: ONLY GOOD!

All right, ffxiv folks, what cosplay do you want Squeenix to enable next?

Last month I did a closet cosplay of Azeyma for a glam contest; this month they released an official outfit.
A miqo'te (ffxiv) with short purple hair wearing a red and gold dancer's outfit with golden wings and golden laurel. They are wielding a pair of red metal fans and leaping (or perhaps flying) in the air. The background is a slightly cloudy but starry night sky.

Chairs are nice and all, but what could be better than a sunny window?
A purple-haired miqo'te (ffxiv) lounges on a shelf in front of a sunny window. There is a trellis of roses in the foreground and star patterns on the walls.

I found him in a bog and threw shrimp at him until he followed me home.
A screenshot of a palico (a cat-like creature) from Monster Hunter Wilds. He has long green and black fur and carries a sword on its back. His eyes are half-closed, giving him a smug (or perhaps simply stoned) expression.

Wandered back into making mashup mods for friends, but kind of lamenting the fact that all I know how to do in blender is almost entirely contained within a mashup tutorial document (that I still need to reference for nearly every project).

To absolutely everyone's horror, I have now spent more time modding this game than playing it. I look forward to rectifying that, provided I haven't utterly destroyed my game lol.
A screenshot of the Dragon Age: Origins steam library page indicating that I last played on March 28, 202 and have played a total of 3 hours.
