An adorable raccoon.

Olympia (RoA) as Chuck E. Cheese because this character has never worked a day in her life

i lost a set online and got upset so i drew this out of spite

perfection

hey can you double the framerate on this

An excerpt from the Tunic manual. The fox gesturing to their empty stamina bar and thinking, “everything hurts way more when I’m tired.”

just posting this here so that it's easier for me to find online in the future

it's glace, actually

tempted to start following a bunch of 18+ accounts on here so that I’m less tempted to scroll in public

just figured out that the easiest way for me to write medieval sounding music is to mess around on my tin whistle until something clicks

as someone who is not particularly good on the tin whistle, I am now well on my way to becoming the World's Most Annoying Roommate

that's a given

my character, Glace, looking angrily at his phone while tapping the screen repeatedly, with a pointy speech bubble that says "Really, AGAIN!?" coming from him

average reaction whenever i'm lurking in the sydney smash bros stream

This piece was done by the lovely @heresvix.bsky.social, who i basically just told to do w/e with my guy and they absolutely nailed it 🙏

i guess technically i learnt this yesterday

dear diary, today i learnt not to take 12 hour stimulants at 4 in the afternoon

related to this - I *really* need to stop trying to swing back in disadvantage

aside from the fact that it messes with my SSDI if I time it wrong, Absa doesn't really have good buttons to do that in the first place

get out of the way first, then try and find a way back into the game from there

on a non-Absa related note, my defence in this game is decent, but I consistently get hit for 70-80% in disadvantage from strings that I really should be able to SSDI out of

if I'm unsure about which way to go, SSDI up or away, depending on the direction I'm getting hit

I'll need to check the frame data on these options in my spare time to make sure it's worth the risk

these should mostly just be used to pester people who otherwise refuse to interact with me (and maybe against characters that I would struggle to fight in neutral otherwise?)

I could also just end the up b on the first tick, leaving myself right next to them - punishable, but if the opponent is expecting me to keep moving, I should be able to act first in most circumstances... i think.

I *think* that this is punishable if they CC the up b, but I imagine that they'd need to know which direction I was going in ahead of time

that being said, I've already been mixing in triangle dashes with my djc aerials, so i might be able to use up b as a secret third option (just be wary of parries)

alternatively, I could use grounded up b and immediately go back the other way, turning it into more of an 8% poke

and going straight up vs characters with especially good antiairs (lox, clairen, other absas) basically just puts me in disadvantage

starting those up bs from short or fullhop height would let me end them closer to the ground near the opponent, but also telegraphs my intentions a lot more

starting from the ground means that the second up b only has so many places to go, and none of them leave me close enough to be looking for an aggressive option against someone that knows what's up

I'm not currently considering where I'm starting them from atm, because I have a nasty tendency to do them horizontally from the floor and then straight up, then praying they don't act in time before i land on them with an aerial

I think my nair usage is fine (other than the occasional accidental fullhop nair, thanks ultimate) but I'm gonna have to completely reconsider how I use up b

last thing that i need to figure out for now would be my aggressive options

nair is good and I think there's something to be done with aggressive up b usage in neutral, but the way i'm going about it atm is getting me outspaced or parried more often than not

I've seen some stuff about using uthrow for techchases on platforms, which is probably a good idea, but I'm still thinking like maypul in how I've been approaching it, eg looking for regrabs

maybe I could start sharking with up air in those situations - at low percents i think that's big damage

I also really need to figure out what I'm doing with Absa's throw game - I'm getting decent results just throwing people offstage and looking for edgeguards, but I'm not competent enough at it yet for it to be my main gameplan

I reckon it's cause I'm super overcommitting to punish people for being way above me, rather than covering the area directly above me with up air/tilt

I need to just let people have their fun if they're gonna play at higher ranges - they've gotta come down eventually, can't let it be on my head
