Last Notes npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books Nothing about the first Pokopia announcement grabbed me at all, but as I realized what it is, I became intrigued. I’ve been binging it, and having a lot of fun. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books Badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books I was fully convinced Nintendo was bringing back POGs when I first saw this. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books @nprofile…9hjn I would frame it as you’re firing your voice teacher. You hardly seem like a quitter. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books If you understand this reference without looking it up, we are friends now. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books Has anyone found the reset button for the United States? We forgot to recruit Mog, so we need to start over. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books If I’m quiet here, it has felt important to be engaged with the current situation in the US, and I’ve been spending a bit of time doing that on other accounts in various places. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books @nprofile…3q9y I’ve been speaking Minnesotan for a week now off and on in solidarity.

I’m certain there are thousands of accounts I’d find interesting, but I’ve been in the habit of trying to keep up with everyone I’m following, and even with 200 it’s become unmanageable to see it all. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books Worked on two more #PixelArt #emotes for Churro, and appropriately they capture how she’s currently feeling about the US Federal government and #Venezuela. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books Churro is dancing in #NYE26!

Game. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books @nprofile…4m8e @nprofile…f4xf I usually give an absurd name to things, like uppy-downy-pipe-ramp or whatever, and try to keep moving. Shorthand for something can often come about naturally as you work with it. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books @nprofile…4m8e @nprofile…vjvs Although, if this is partly responsible for current prices, the situation could reverse if there were half a million (no idea) Analogue 3Ds opened as gifts today. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books @nprofile…4m8e I think it’s a literal supply/demand situation. A game costs a reseller money as long as it takes up space on a shelf. And if they’re seeing a lot of games coming in, they’ll naturally make them easier to go out. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books @nprofile…4m8e @nprofile…vjvs Especially with this handheld emulation device boom, this is probably recently happening more than ever. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books @nprofile…4m8e @nprofile…vjvs I think emulation has had an impact on resale prices here. A lot of people who were holding on to carts might be more inclined to part with them if they can still access their nostalgia another way. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books The days have been awfully dark, but I’m hoping everyone finds something bright and happy today. Whether it’s business as usual, hectic or quiet, with loved ones or by yourself—“you’ve made this day a special day, by just your being you.” npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books @nprofile…4m8e Same. Definitely worth my time. Had a lot of fun. I’m okay to only get a 10/10 game every few years. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books @nprofile…cpuy npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books Look, I’m not a prodigy of Newtonian mechanics or anything, but I was only a class or two away from a minor in Physics. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books Definitely don’t like the apparent trend of AI hitting the games industry, but I’m curious what the line is here? Like, are we talking AI generated character models or dialog, developers using AI assisted editors, or like, searched for help on Google and read the AI generated result. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books Also today, launched a (somewhat sparse) “Projects” page to have some persistent links to projects that were previously only linked in blog or social posts. npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books New blog post to soft-launch Crispnes: npub1pga3f6w7cgdrgrmmnl6k3t3y52c3xqn0r3etjrykt0vguxjk4fns8ece88 Off The Books Pen’d ant.

Ignoring that I’m crazy for making 8x8, 3-color icons for my app, the paint bucket was one of my earlier ones.

I know what you mean. It hit me hard in the N64 era that even though 3D was clearly the future, it didn’t necessarily mean more fun.
