i used to post good morning on twitter every day and i think when i stopped doing that was maybe when twitter started to stop being good
i’ve kept up daily drawing this year but i’ve,,, been doing minimal amounts for the last month or so starting to do more each day now!!!!! filled my 4th sketchbook this year today but this one took much longer
(also,,, 100%d mina the hollower after beating it last week but didn't mention. VERY good game
idk what i want from nintendo anymore. i always liked their handheld games more than the console games but ever since their handheld became their main console.. they dont really do those kinds of games anymore?
was playing echoes of wisdom a bit over lunch break and its lacking a lot of the charm older 2d zeldas have imo.. There's lots of space but most of it doesn't feel important and the modern questing system feels weird
i beat mina. i recommend it if u like games (and you’re ok with them being a little hard?)
was learning trenchbroom and now i’m playing quake and doom bc i never rly played either.. (only played the first episode of each so far though
ok i’ve managed to arrange two (ok, like 1.8 bc one needs a bridge still) vocal tracks this week somehow which means now i definitely need to learn how to lyrics, smh im too scared of the words i think i just need to riff on weird topic ideas and see what sticks
made it a goal this week to write vocal (synthv) music with rly simple instrumentals (mostly monophonic lines, only 1-3 instruments the same time, rly basic basslines etc) and its working i think!!!! still cant write lyrics tho lol
combining ufo50 and valkyria chronicles for fun (extremely rushed bc i just wanted to do something that would be quick to make lol)
大変お待たせしました。日本語版『UFO 50』のSteam、Nintendo Switch向け配信日が4月16日に決定しました。どうぞお楽しみに！ (The Japanese version of UFO 50 will be coming out on Steam and Nintendo Switch on April 16th!)
practicing drawing ui elements (also working with godot ui nodes)
i’ve been slowly poking at making my own mobile music composition app bc i really don’t want to have to be tied to a computer to do music/art etc.. if i get that to a decent state, i should maybe revive my old mobile tileset making app idea bc i rly enjoy making pixel tiles
this is moslty bc im actually drawing every day i think but im improving a lot more comfortably doing daily pencil drawings as opposed to in the last when i mostly drew digitally. pencil just nice…
ffxiv free trial is broken imo. you can play the base game and first expansion with it, but due to chat/trade etc restrictions it makes the actual social part of the game feel dead (cant see anything people are saying) paying sub gets you those features, which is nice. id consider it. BUT
been reading bleach since i dropped the anime in the middle of hueco mundo when i was a teenager im having a lot of fun talking about it with ppl! it sucks. but i like it anyway lol
ok i’ve relearned the most important art tip (thinking about how to draw something isn’t productive until you’ve already done a bunch of drawings of the thing you’re thinking about)
step 1 of learning to draw good is drawing chibis this is professional advice (they’re not very consistent rn)
going on a training arc to learn how to make art that would have been popular on deviantart 17 years ago
think i’ve already drawn more this year than i did last year lol
