I hate having to apologize once more... i am getting a bit sick of this but... sorry for no Halloween Stream this year AGAIN.

Had plans, but...😑

Family had different plans and now i have a battery cushion to deal with... not wanting to fly into the stratosphere I have to deal with that stuff asap.

I know the feeling...

I have been sitting often in front of my computer but burnout is just so hard, together with the work and other IRL stuff, i only see my list getting longer and longer.

I just hope that my spark comes back eventually but it has been quite difficult for me to move myself.

👻

Yearly reminder for Wario Land 4 (or Wario in general) fans and people looking for a Halloween themed small hack to play, I made this neat 1 level Wario Land 4 hack.

How much do I finish in around 3 months with work and all that?

Who knows...

We gonna have to see what I can do and hopefully the ride isn't as bumpty.

Now I have to work on a game demo... so that I can meet its deadline (November 2nd), so see you on flipside.

To sum up:

Things that I should be able to finish:
- 1 more video coming
- 3 livestreams (one will be a insane ALTTP bee seed)

Things that I can't promise 100%:
- 1 fleshed out 1 level demo of a game that isn't a mod
- 1 non smw mod

Things that I don't see happen this year:
- 2 team dicks collabs

- 1 Mod that isn't SMW

This one is hard...

Originally I wanted to make a smb2 hack during the contest back then, but i noticed i just couldn't get things done and then the burnout kicked in instantly, as i tried to make stuff happen and wasted hours to get the editor working.

Can't promise this.

- 3 Livestreams

Shouldn't be too hard. I have plenty of stuff I can play on stream or show. I just need to make sure I can do that stuff and its not going to be a lackluster expierence.

One of the things I planned is a ALTTP Rando (for old times sake), but with bee's spawns cranked up to the max.

- 2 new videos on YT

Technically I have done this with the Twitch VODs but those aren't new... this one I can see myself doing fairly easy.

I just don't know what the 2nd video is going to be yet but I hope it will be better than just a Soundtrack video of a hack of mine.

Ideas are welcome.

- 2 new finished non hack games:

WHAT WAS I THINKING?!

This one is insane. My intend was game jam sized games that are very short. I simply am too afraid of jams and making full games is brutal for me.

Instead of 2 finished projects, let's settle on a solid 1 level demo for the time, okay? Okay!

- 2 new Team Dicks collabs this year:

This year is going to be unlikely. I am actively working on some stuff in the background but ultimatively burn out and work hinder me a lot. I am gonna say I won't be able to finish a collab this year, but hopefully next year i can.

I am gonna be honest...

I won't be able to finish everything on this list...

Heck, I don't see me even finishing half of it...

I really did make a clown out of myself...

Still, I am gonna try some of these things.
So here is a thread with what i think i can't accomplish and what i will do:

Naw, this perfect.

See no issues with this one 👌.

Time to make "Tiny Bui Bui World" with this 🤭

Man, i just can't... for some reason, i lost the motivation for everything.

Wanna work on a games project? Not in the mood...
Wanna finish a started project? Not in the mood...
Wanna try something fresh? Not in the mood...
Wanna play games? A waste of time...

What does one do in this situation? 😔

I wrote this in a couple servers, but I'll say it here too: jokes about me losing my accounts are not welcome, and jokes made before I got my Twitch account back were especially awful. Any made from here on out, on twitch or wherever, will be met with a ban from my spaces.

I have my twitch account back btw. Thank you @thabeast721.bsky.social and whoever your friend is for your work.

My Twitch account was hacked, and a hacker is masquerading as a partnered account on Twitch. Twitch won't do anything to help fix this. How many more of us need to be hacked and lose everything until they decide to help restore our accounts?

Big scam warning!!!

If you noticed, @shovda.bsky.social got hacked by a scammer. Unfortenately @nintendesi.bsky.social got also affected by it.

The scamer is currently posting in his discord with his account, DONT CLICK ANYTHING!!

He banned me on his server and pretends to work on a game!!

My account got hacked on Discord. Heads up.

also, yes, i was working on one of the major and big important things I DIDN'T WANT SPOILED FOR HIM at the time... why ya askin? 😉🤦‍♂️

a man is walking down a sidewalk with a bag of trash . ALT: a man is walking down a sidewalk with a bag of trash .

nothing destroys my motivation to work on a surprise project for my bro more than when he just busts into my room, unnannounced, instantly, without knocking and him instantly seeing what i am working on and asking me "HHMMMM? WHATZ DIZ?"

another project i can toss into the bin cause he has seen it

Doing this before I go to bed... good idea... 🤭

***Okay, everyone, hit me up with game theme ideas!***

I simply can't start with a project on my own clearly without one... preferably something I can do in 2D.

Notice, "theme", as in "game jam theme", not "game idea". 🙂 👆

Thank you! 🙇‍♂️

Alright, here is video #1 for this year's resolution.
Enjoy. 🙂👍

I mean, you could always return to it and update it to acceptable standards (and maybe add one or two things) 🙂

Bumping this one again:

I got the new PC mostly setup and ready to go. I am ready to work on some stuff but some nudges/suggestions what people would love to see me do.

Just answer the replies in that post linked below with your answers. Hopefully i can do something soon.

First, i do a new video~

... shell after hitting a wall or when missing, giving the player more than enough time to counter with a spinjump to kill it.

... amount of these per level, considering they are supposed to be "Elites" and for my understanding, an army doesn't usually have many of those (it would defeat the purpose of them being called that).

If you wanna make it easier without too much changes, you could increase the time its inside the-

On its own or in small groups it doesn't seem that bad. It mostly is more difficult to handle should this guy getting spammed (like how the elites often were in hacks) or the terrain being constructed against your favor (making the dodging harder).

Like i don't get why people go overboard with the-

I hope I get things sorted as I am feeling a bit tired... the Twitch Highlights thing, the projects that i did and still have to do and all that while juggling family matters and a full time job gets super exhausting and little to no time for things i wanna do.

Sorry for the lack of updates.
