I want this small world to feel alive and vibrant.

If you have never made a puzzle but really want to give it a try, I wholeheartedly recommend the LOK puzzle system. It has spatial and temporal elements that really get the brain meat working!

YouTube video by LudicRyan How to Make LOK Puzzles

@ludicryan.bsky.social made a fantastic video about how to make a LOK puzzle!

Using both pen and paper environment and the editor in LOK Digital, Ryan really exposed what makes a LOK puzzle tick. I also contributed a bit with an interview.

Several LOK puzzles I've made

I've been practicing making LOK puzzles for the last few weeks in preparation for making a video on how to make and design LOK puzzles.

Part of this practice is just creating a muscle memory of different solving and design techniques. Part of it is analysing existing puzzles and why they work.

YouTube video by Sarah Moon AI Could Never Translate This Anime (feat. Chihayafuru)

we desperately need fans to:

A. know that AI localization will absolutely ruin their favorite manga, anime, games, and books

B. fan outrage over AI use is one of the best and only ways we can fight back.

most loc professionals are freelance. we're not union. we have no power.

Fans must speak up.
