Currently playing through Fallen Aces Episode 2. I'll give my full thoughts on it when I beat it but *holy shit* is Bare Treads awful. Visually great but bad to play. Nothing feels like it fits and all of the im-sim stuff feels like it gets discarded for linear action. Broke my non-lethal run too.

Re-beat the first episode of Fallen Aces today. I had been putting off replaying it due to personal issues but now that I'm happier, I can say that this game still fucks pretty hard. I played non-lethally, trying to do a Dishonored thing and that went okay. Start: 1. 09. 2026 End: 6. 09. 2026

A game like Tetris Effect couldn't be made nowadays. It's a game that I think is built to be as hopeful as possible. I love it. I finished a full run of it today and I took some screenshots of it. Hydelic, the guy behind the music, did a great damn job. I should make a tierlist of the levels.

Time for more art. Her name is Joni P. Grammer, the P stands for "Paradise" but she prefers to go without it. The hand floating by her side is tied to her back tattoo, one of a tree. She's also 6'5" tall and can consistently bench 700kg shirted or shirtless. #art #characterart #oc #spiritual

A drawing of a very tall, very broad woman holding a sniper rifle. She is dressed in a tank-top, which shows a small tattoo of a sun on the left of her chest. Her left arm is wrapped up in a comfortable, cozy arm warmer that is tied to her tank top whilst her right arm is bare and covered in bandages, except for the dark green glove she's wearing. She's wearing a deep green robe over her tank-top, akin to a monk's. She has tied her jacket around her waist to act as a sort of belt to keep everything in place. Her pants are almost pitch black and her shoes have small green laces.

On the right side of the screen is an expression test. Here's a visual descriptor for what they portray:

Expression 1: Concern
Expression 2: Puppy Dog Eyes
Expression 3: Cross-Eyed With Tongue
Expression 4: Anger
Expression 5: Depression
Expression 6: Joy

Finished Brutal John 2 today. This game plays really damn good but the story and the VA are surreal in how flat, goofy and bad they are and I wouldn't have it any other way. Lots of love for the old guard too. The furry community would love Brutal Dog. Start: 21. 08. 2026 End. 25. 08. 2026

haven't posted art in a while, here's a lil' something something His name is Kesley Kissinger and the spirit by his side is Leslie. He is one of the intentionally edgiest characters I've ever drawn and I like him a lot. I will post more art when I feel like it. #art #characterart #oc #edgy yes.

A drawing of Kesley Kissinger, a brown-haired man with white skin, green-and-red heterochromia and one of the edgiest outfits in the world. He is wearing a tall dark trench-coat, a blood red shirt with the words "COME GET SOME" written on it in a brighter red, a slightly more duller red as a stomach wrapping, ripped grey jeans with slightly darker grey stitches on it and black shoes. He's holding a katana upside down and smiling viciously. By his side is Leslie, a red, cat-like spirit that is holding his shoulder.

On the right is an expression test for both him and his cat spirit. Here are the expressions for Kesley;
Expression 1: Flirty
Expression 2: okay
Expression 3: Mildly Disturbed
Expression 4: Bloodthirsted
Expression 5: Meow
Expression 6: Sad
Expression 7: Ambivalence
Expression 8: Joy

And here are the expressions for Leslie;
Expression 1: Joy
Expression 2: oh dear

Finished my Corvo Run of Dishonored 2. Butchering my way through Serkonos had the fun fluctuate way more than the low chaos run but I had a really good time through it all. Being able to cut loose is fun! welcome to the final mystery jindorsh Start: 21. 08. 2026 End: 23. 08. 2026

Finished Dishonored 2 today. I went with Emily and I felt like I made the correct choice. I had a really fun time with this one too and I'm surprised the game could run on my device. On my next run, I'll pick Corvo and be far more open with taking lives lmao. Start: 17. 08. 2026 End: 20. 08. 2026

Finished Dishonored: The Brigmore Witches today. Way better than The Knife of Dunwall. The environments were prettier and Delilah had way more presence. I liked it very much. Low Chaos all the way, plus no kills. Neato! Start: 16. 08. 2026 End: 17. 08. 2026

Started (and finished) Dishonored: The Knife of Dunwall today. A nice, quick snack of a DLC from the perspective of Daud. I liked it a lot but not as much as the main campaign. My favorite part was the Estate. Start And End Date: 16. 08. 2026
