Riki appearing in these post-Metal Face boss fight cutscenes all like

And just in case you don't have six hours to kill, here's a time-lapse of the progress I was able to make before I decided to stop for dinner 🔸

Left-to-right: holiday gifts from my partner @phenokage and good friend @Dex, respectively! (The Labo kit is partly for the fun of assembling things, partly for the Deemo controller; Dex's was also an ideal gift in that it's something I wanted for my Sonic shelf, but was reticent to buy for myself.)

My first playlist (of what will be many, I assure you) is exclusively of songs that, from what I've heard (or otherwise the first 10-15 seconds of listening), sound like they''d pair well with this specific hyperspeed GIF of Elaine dancing.

(I found this version of said GIF by searching Tumblr for "Kirby Music")

Hi, everyone; I'm tarah, otherwise known as lobst. I've drawn a few comics that people have seemed to enjoy, and programmed a game demo that won 10th-place in a 140+ entry game jam despite having no sound. My ability to finish any individual project has been stymied by mental health problems for over a year, but I've been seeking treatment and making progress. I've also been streaming videogames on weekends. Watch this space!

Stream update: Despite a major setback at the worst possible moment in the Giygas fight, I completed the remainder of the game after a combined total of 10 hours of streaming. Bright side, it allowed me to get more use out of the sidebar graphic I whipped up pre-stream just for the final dungeon (spoilers, obviously):

PSA: For anyone who's wanted to make a PICO-8 or TIC-80 style fantasy console game but felt alienated by the presence of a price tag, there's now a free/open-source Python-based alternative called Pyxel https://github.com/kitao/pyxel

Dessert pie (the more popular pie from Undertale) is out of the oven, complete with my patented Clumsy Crust™️ (a regular pie crust with trim assembled from scraps, because the edges came apart when I rolled it out)

Well, some enterprising collector bought the copy I had my eye on, but eBay had it for $10 less with free shipping. (Basketball's deflated in this one only because it's been over half a decade; I expect it to inflate fine, but we'll see how it goes when I get the proper adapter for our bike pump.)

I do not expect to actually be able to play this anytime soon; this was clearly made with the ideal Kinect living room in mind (giant open penthouse loft, non-carpeted floor)

Every interstitial voiced cutscene so far involving the three heroes has them walking into an austere white hallway, either Sora or Donald asking "I wonder how many more of our collected experiences we've lost?", and Goofy responding with "Shucks, it's not worth worrying about!"

It then fades in to some version of this arrangement of onscreen elements, which makes it feel like a grim ritual is about to occur

Rescued from my Twitter account, a silly, slipshod, and barely-organized 2016 sketch comic featuring (currently) my only three active fursonae

After being worn out by commissions I decided to put my all into drawing something for myself, and now I have a brand new OC, as well as a new design method for humanoid animal species

Linux Steam Play Peggle update: Really glad I didn't have to go re-buy this on Xbox 360 or something to experience this pivotal moment in game history once more

This is absolutely a marketing move (I'm a Kickstarter backer and am voluntarily mutuals with this account), but an effective one in my case; I do like to imagine this account is run by the '90s alien rap duo it represents, who both agree wholeheartedly with the "FUCK YOUR BOSS" sentiment depicted here

My Discord and Telegram profiles now feature this new icon from @WISPUS@twitter.com, who has sufficiently captured my kobold fursona's effervescent personality

Snake Pass is a game about confidently maneuvering a snake into suspended positions that preserve themselves after the controller is set down

Just ran into this ad. It almost reads like it's part of a viral campaign for a work of media, but regardless of whether it is or isn't, it's designed to take advantage of the viewer's tendency to feel guilt, and/or to make them question whether they're developing hallucinations ("You could have stopped it"). The way capitalism is headed, I'm sure we'll see more ads like it in the future.
