There's a very big difference between me and my dad (besides the fact he's above average height and I'm below)...
We are very different in how we react when the other is going to the restroom.
The beauty of only having experience with one form for now in my case. That, and I can't fathom a way I'd get to play IRL long term due to my own personal situation. So instead I ask friends who do play offline to have extra fun for me xD

I'm just fleshing out my lists of things I want to include, including non-magic skills for the different classes/characters. Been trying to come up with creative buff/debuff skills and spells and think I got a few good ones!

I just want all of you to understand that my name is Lev and my husband's name is Aleksei and 70% of Americans cannot say either of those names right even when they are repeating it after us
Well you're the sweetest! :3

07.11.2025 01:09 โ ๐ 6 ๐ 2 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I was using my translation app with my aide and finally noticed that in Spanish, 'Soy' means 'I am'.
So now I think the term soybean is funny because it's just saying 'I am bean'.

The beauty of having a musician for a parent: you get to hear what they're working on before it comes out.
Reminds me I should think of the general soundscape I want for my #gamedev. I'll try to brainstorm some of that today.
That's what I wanted from mine! Sadly just got the superhuman ability to not get the flu as easily.

Aaand now it's time for lunch with my aide! I showed her two anime I love the other day and she requested specifically to continue the one including the 'crazy kitty cat'... So time to watch some #NatsumeYuujinchou / #NatsumesBookofFriends

03.11.2025 16:25 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Not feeling great today so most of my #gamedev is brainstorming. I started a list of puzzle ideas to include because I love puzzles and also inspiration just happened to strike.
...Idea involves a clock. I blame daylight savings (even though the game includes a lot of 'time' symbolism anyway).
I was wanting to get the mapping method figured out, but since it's taking a lot more brain power for me to figure out than I anticipated with all the helpful stuff I have... I might switch gears and just intermittently do tiny bits of trying while I work on things like the database and whatnot.
02.11.2025 23:49 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Maybe I'll make maps without Tiled for now just to get a general idea of areas and stuff. There's already plenty to do without Tiled stuff anyway.
