-BOUND TO THE DARK WORLD-

...IS RELEASED!!
ITS OUT!!!

Happy anniversary to Deltarune, and happy Halloween to everyone!
Enjoy!

So I've revisited my 360 recently. While I do enjoy the 360 controller, I find the series controller much more comfortable. The 360 feels big and bulbous compared to the series controller and the buttons stick out a lot more and have too much travel.

I broke my finger yesterday.

Trying to do everyday things with limited use of my left hand is teaching me patience. I have to keep my hand elevated, so even getting dressed can be a challenge.

Makes me appreciate what people with real disabilities have to go through even more.

And my hands are definitely larger than yours.

Maybe I'd like the case more, but I've never had an issue with the Switch 2 being uncomfortable in handheld mode.

It only affected the demo. When I compiled the demo, I stripped out most of the unused files, and "SlashIce" was accidentally removed in the process.

I would like to apologise to anyone who was affected by this oversight and ask you to give Aqatillion another chance.

Just fixed an embarrassing bug in the demo for Aqatillion that went unreported for an entire year after the demo's release. Turns out, if you use the combo skill "Ice Blade," the demo crashed due to a missing animation file.

I've only ever been to those same two concerts.

Stay up a couple more hours and your sleep schedule will be close to fixed.

Been rewatching Red Dwarf with my wife little by little over the past couple of months. We're on the movie now, The Promised Land. Turns out we've never watched season 12 or the movie before.

Share around and boost this as much as possible. If BlueSky won’t move, we make them move.

Definitely don't look at the first few videos on my YouTube channel from almost 20 years ago to see the mouse and keyboard in action.

I still have that Dreamcast. I got the keyboard and mouse for it when I bought it, too. Unfortunately I've lost the keyboard at some point. Looks like I'd end up spending more on a replacement keyboard than I did on the original console.

Our Game Crazy was where I got my Dreamcast. It had the disc for House of the Dead in it when I got home. Don't remember what I paid, but I could afford it on the $100 per week salary I was making at the time.

Oh, also the infrared port that almost no games utilized. The most memorable one that did was Pokémon TCG. You could "Card Pop" with another player over IR to get some boosters.

Gameboy was created in the late 80s with tech that was years out of date at the time, and they continued with the same hardware under the hood until the release of the Gameboy Color a decade later. The only upgrades on the Gameboy Color were a color screen, more RAM, and a slightly faster processor.

Had something interesting happen during the Mage's Guild questline in Oblivion Remastered

Not to mention the updated meshes and voice lines.

4k textures are a bit bigger than the like 32x32 textures we had 20 years ago.

A quick update on my quest for promotion:

A position has recently opened at a location that is half the commute of my current job. I have also worked at this location previously on a temporary basis. I have an interview with the manager on Monday morning. Wish me luck!

I am grateful to work for a company where there is pretty much always an opportunity to advance, depending on how far you are willing to commute. I know in my soul that I'm ready for this. Wish me luck!

So, just to update folks on my career situation, the promotion at the slightly farther away location didn't work out. Today, I applied for a promotion at an even farther away location. It'll be an hour drive each way, plus or minus downtown city traffic.

Another opportunity has presented itself for me to go for a promotion. The location is a bit farther away than where I currently work and in a different state. Just visited to check it out, and it looks really good. I think I will put in my application.

I totally forgot to tag them so you can give them a follow here on bluesky. Sorry about that, @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social

Also, in Ragnarok DS, you create your own guild. You are given the option to name it, and they give you tons of space to do so.

I named my guild "Massive Face Dingus Dongus" because I couldn't think of anything better at the time. That name doesn't even fill the space they give you.

Back in the day, I was super into Ragnarok Online. It's really the only MMO I ever put any time into.

I started playing Ragnarok DS, and despite the rough translation, it's bringing back some nice memories for me.

Sadly, a single-player version of an MMO is inherently lonely. It feels empty.

The problem with working on post-game content for #aqatillion is that I want to avoid spoilers wherever possible. Unfortunately, that means I can't just post every new thing I want to show you all.
