action/platformer speedruns: yea we have to do 100 frame perfect tricks to clip through all these sections and it's all skill based and precise practice and speed

old jrpg speedruns: WE HAVE TO TORTURE THE GAME BY RIPPING ITS SOUL OUT AND REPLACING IT WITH DR MARIO TO FORCE IT TO DO OUR BIDDING

whenever I see "made with real fruit" on packaging, I imagine a factory making the most sugar-filled "fruit" snacks ever, with unrelated real fruit just scattered around the factory. like yeah man, these 5000% Daily Value sugar gummies were made with real fruit. wink

I had a friend play through an early unfinished version of Chapter 5!

Their testimonial was "I am still thinking about it a lot and want to play it more and it's kawaii when toby is worried about if it's good enough"

new game: it wastes your time, and that's bad game design and stupid as hell. it does not value the player's time.
old beloved game: it wastes your time, and that's funny & a power move. this is a great addition

make for yourself, share for community
been yelling this to the heavens for so long lol

any time i get bummed out about the lack of traction someone jumps in with the "success doesn't define you and you have to make stuff for yourself first" self-esteem stuff

i LOVE my shit and what upsets me is that i can't SHARE that feeling
I don’t think ppl understand the whole “who cares if nobody likes it! make content for yourself” is extremely dismissive
Bc we ARE making the content for ourselves but it feels /bad/ when people don’t engage or show interest. You can care about both at the same time

someone with normal sm64 camera opinions

YEAH a funny thing with the camera is like it's... in a lot of ways actually pretty good in certain ways? The game is designed around it and it's pretty consistent?? Like the whole experience is a mess, but just accepting it and embracing the benefits works out better in the long run.
and like... I've played the PC port of Mario 64 and it's... like... it's neat, but having a smooth analogue camera in that makes it a whole different game. it completely changes in how it feels

I haven't talked about this in a bit and just realized I probably should, so here's where I'm at with my projects:

Everything is slowed down due to a few things, mainly being college. I started college recently, and I have a lot less time to work on personal projects.

referring to metroidvanias as "hollowslop" to simultaneously piss off people who like metroidvanias, people who like hollow knight, people who want a better genre name for "metroidvania", people who are sick of the word slop being misused, and gradius fans who want to see more checkpoint recoveries
