Happy Cirno Day! She's got a giant robot because I've been playing a lot of SRW.

I like to run around in mazes and shoot things!

I've been playing different versions of NES Galaxian lately. There's a hack that adds auto fire and slightly speeds up the shots, it's a small change but it makes the game a lot more fun and exciting! It makes me want to take a swing at making a Galaxian clone like the Battle City game I made.
I tried the demo for Dungeon Antiqua and it was incredible. Have you ever tried out a game and felt like it was made to appeal to you specifically? The game has it all, grindy JRPG style combat, gradual map exploration, a town represented solely through a menu. It's so good...
Check out my cool new dungeon, made for the Extremely Byzantine 5-Room Dungeon Jam. sgt-shivers.itch.io/kenz-exposit...

I think I figured out the map format for Absentia. Time to make some custom maps. >:D
I've been playing more Rogue lately (specifically 10Rogue) and it's still really funny to me that if you want a variety of games that are Like Rogue, you should look into Mystery Dungeon games and not Roguelikes.
Project Absentia is so good. Sometimes all you need is a bunch of bad guys and a boatload of rocket launchers. I gotta figure out how to configure UDB for it so I can make some custom levels...
After 8 days of fervent development my map for #RAMP2026 is ready to play. There's probably more than a few bugs left hiding in there but I think the mapping side of development is done. If you get a chance to play it, let me know what you think!
I mentioned a maimai song today and Mimi said "Oh that reminds me of a bullet pattern from a touhou fan game" and was able to immediately pull it up. She's so awesome.
I am so psyched for RAMP this year, I got plans to make a map that'll make my one from last year seem almost normal.
Lately I've been seeing videos hyping up a game's unique mechanic or a character from a show in the thumbnail, but when I click the video it's just a recap of the events of whatever the source media is. There's gotta be a better way to make that kind of video.
I've been watching @matrix-hash.bsky.social play Battle Mania for the Megadrive and it's crazy to me how much character this game has. I thought it was one of those new homebrew games until I saw the title screen, this game is awesome!!!
