Just launched my new website!
Iโve been working on getting some sort of portfolio together for video game music Iโve made, and made a site with retro-style graphics.
Grateful for any comments or suggestions on how to improve things!

My wifeโs Too Good To Go surprise order was 12 doughnuts from Tim Hortonโs and I need to be in bed in 40 minutes.

My first 2-colour 3D print!
A very cool #Nintendo #Switch games holder!
3D printed a Mario Warp Pipe Pro Controller Stand this evening.

Today, I turn 40.
Whilst Iโm far from delighted with that number, Iโm coping with it by promising myself two things:
1) Iโm not going to act my age.
2) Iโm going to (somehow) make this the best decade of my life.
That frame! ๐

I need to practice my steering a bit more thoughโฆ

The CeX trade-in price for Switch OLEDs has dropped from about ยฃ150 to ยฃ110, and at that price itโs hard to not feel like Iโd be giving it away.
Whatโs everyone else doing with their old Nintendo Switches?
Todayโs Switch 2 adventure has been Breath of the Wild. First-party games run best on this system. Buttery smooth frame rates and crisp graphics ๐๐ป

Canโt wait for the soundtrack to be available on Nintendo Music.

Next up, I tried No Manโs Sky for a bit after upgrading to the Switch 2 Edition.
Not sure it feels like 60fps when on the surface of a planet, but generally it seems to play well.
Really appreciate the new cross-save feature as I didnโt want to restart this game for the 50th time.
Mario Kart World is a LOT of fun on Switch 2. Played this for a few hours with @fleberdee.com
I may have got beaten a few times ๐คฆ๐ผโโ๏ธ
On another note, the screenshot/video sharing feature works really well.
I do - lots of fun with that too!

Still setting up the Switch 2, but first impressions:
- this thing feels way bigger than the original
- the screen is so nice - the jump to 1080p is really noticeable.
- the magnetic joycons are great. No wobble when attached.
- the eshop is much, much faster now.
I thought Iโd miss the OLED screen on the switch 2, but honestly, the new screen is so beautiful.

Amazing! Iโm doing the data transfer right now too!!

I have a big feeling Iโm going to be disappointed.
