so, the nintendo direct, huh? (context: the direct started at like 9am for me)

Quite knowledgeable in GML, fan of FPSes and Platformers. Occasionally draws. Also trying my best to learn Java, really confusing so far.
i only just figured out last night why my vr headset wasn't working on linux. my rx 6600 has an hdmi 2.1 slot. i ordered an hdmi to displayport adapter for like $8 last night so hopefully i can finally get it set up.
lost my minecraft hardcore world i started a couple days ago because mojang in their infinite wisdom decided that you shouldn't be able to block attacks with the shield until a full second has passed. it's a shame, i had an extremely good mining trip with over a full stack of diamonds.
i just beat faces of evil and wand of gamelon. they just need a little rework with the controller and physics and they'd be pretty good. kinda wish the bosses were a bit harder though, since they're really just a glorified puzzle/item check.
been a while since i last posted so i'm just gonna say it i'm still stuck on the farewell golden berry in celeste. i can get to the room just before the lock boxes occasionally, but any more than is too hard for me right now.
to anyone who's knowledgeable on the quirks of running hollow knight on linux, how in the world do i get these two achievements to register? using proton for mods if it helps
i imagine dark dollars in deltarune would have image_friend's face on it. still haven't figured out what a light world counterpart could be. glitter, maybe?

so i was playing sml2 archipelago and just learned that linux mint has controller support. accidentally pushed the left stick while tapping the guide button to reset bizhawk, so that's good to know.
decided to make minecraft-styled item tooltips in gamemaker
trying to redesign the minecraft hud with support for a few mods (overflowing bars, appleskin, and the aether) because the original was never updated for the 1.14 texture update to my knowledge
so apparently spamton's now in tf2?? (Map: koth_mannhole)
screenshot of an amethyst geode covered in sculk from earlier, never thought this could generate in minecraft
time for me to make one of those "hey kris i think we're in (game)" images
praying that we get woshua in deltarune chapter 5, even if he's just a one-off character
Man, I can't wait to see what Chapter 5 has in store in 2026! ...no i will not reveal any spoilers, go play deltarune yourself. ch4's a bit hard tho.
Deltarune............................................................ tomorrow!
so uh why'd they place the fire and thunder shields here again? you can't go anywhere else, so they're useless and your only choice is the bubble shield
sadly, i was playing solo. oh well, back to trying to promote my driller in drg
i think it's safe to say that i won't be getting any switch 2 games this lifetime. or at least, not until the switch 2's 7th successor comes out.
i was playing around with deep rock galactic's customization options and made dynamite anton and as accurate of a jack black steve as i could
a hat in time seems like one of those games that would be perfect for the wiimote. if only i could get the nunchuck working on steam...
trying to make a custom gml language definition for xed (linux mint's built-in text editor) since it doesn't come with one. i can see why they didn't bother. i'm not even close to being 1/8th of the way done.
decided to knock out a contract in a hat in time earlier, i think i'm making good progress. gonna be using peace and tranquility for cruisin' for a bruisin' since i already struggle a lot with ship shape. not sure about seal the deal tho, but it just sounds like boss rush all over again.
welp, that's another reason to try and find some source of income. for whatever reason the oculus app doesn't natively support linux, so i kinda have to resort to looking for alternative vr headsets instead of just using my rift cv1. only issue is that the index is out of stock atm.
