Started recording footage for the trailer as of yesterday, hopefully I can get something out by this week if everything goes according to plan

As a game I like that everyone else hates its definitely Sonic Heroes, I understand not liking it because of how extremely unpolished it is, but I still have a really fun time playing it (at least when focusing on Team Sonic and Dark)

"Haah!"

Sash Lilac hair whip!

I've also made it so that you can enable the stage restart option that's only used in amiibo challenges available in regular Octo Valley gameplay

Earlier this week I've added some options to skip the news sequence and plaza tour that happens after the tutorial, and an option to skip the Octo Valley intro cutscene

I also decided to port minIni to Splatoon, a tiny C library for parsing ini files so I could add easily toggleable configurations

I managed to fix the Octostrikers so that they can work outside of their original context, as originally they would just throw you out of bounds if the post-defeat position wasn't setup. I also managed to make the ink splatter animation and cutscene that appears after you defeat them to only play...

the game doesn't like having multiple of them, as you still get thrown OoB for some reason. Perhaps later I'll talk about the more technical details

when you are in one of the og Octostriker stages, as that animation outside of that context would be a big pacebreaker. Only real limitation for now until I can figure out how to fix it is that there's only going to be one Octostriker in an Octostriker level cause even with the patches I wrote...

...and here are the options that you'll be able to choose from, perhaps in a later version I could make it so that the item weights can be easily customized from the UI or a text file; gonna having a bit of a lightning round here

From a weeks ago but I have since then implemented some modifiers in order to less favor any powerup items

Very interesting patch I’m gonna stream and play a fuck ton of this update. Lwk need to play a tourney on this cause it just seems like it’ll maybe make things very different than before potentially

okay (had this during a FP2 archipelago run I was doing with friends) #FreedomPlanet2

Freedom Planet 2

As for another thing I was curious about, I spent some time restoring some unused debug functionality in Splatoon 1's final boss against Octavio that draws various debugging info for his fight on screen such as the current state, distance from the player, current phase, etc

Happy new year from EST!

So uh 2025:
- Properly got into programming and learned C++, Python, and C# (largely the former)
- Experienced my first ever console launch with me getting the Switch 2 on day 1
- Got into Archipelago randomizers
- Developed my own Splatoon 1 randomizer which got me into REing

Good things this year

Aight here’s my SU movie review a few weeks later: Overall I had a good time, the songs were great and has some of the best songs of the entire series, Spinel was a fantastic character and it overall provided some great fanservice for those who stuck along since the start. 8/10

Now I plan on adding some kind of modifier for the item rando so that it less favors power-up items such as the armor and canned specials so it won’t be too easy after getting some feedback in the splatoon speedrunning discord

Anyways here's a showcase of the item drop randomizer, items like keys and Sunken Scrolls are purposely excluded; the former you could get potentially stuck and just wouldn't really work with the more linear nature of this game compared to say a Zelda rando, the latter could be in just one drop? idk
