Happy 25th Birthday, Golden Sun! Released in Japan on 01/08/2001. Camelot RPGing in your pocket, with the sun literally your friend if you want to see the screen on an OG GBA. ;w; But yes, one of my favourite JRPGs back then (cooled on it a bit these days) and a core part of my GBA nostalgia.

Impossible Magic is out and with it is the ability to make this 2 minute sketch abomination. Be sure to grab the Wrestler archetype so you can try to shove them in your Ghostbusters trapmouth like you're a mimic from Dark Souls!

Make it exist first... then leave it exactly as it is because quite frankly other tasks take priority sometimes. It's already good enough and nobody will spot that tiny mistake, and the fact that you created something in the first place is already an achievement

Greeting menu of the first version of Encarta, released in March 1993 for Windows 3.1. Priced initially at $395 and incorporating entries only from the Funk & Wagnalls Encyclopedia, it saw a price drop to $99 relatively quickly after struggling sales and would incorporate others in later versions.

Finally finished up my Final Fantasy Tactics-inspired art of Eleanow, a dual-shield elven Guardian for a Shades of Blood Pathfinder game I'm playing in!
