I made it to 2-2 this time on one credit! 3.6m points too which is like... not amazing from a scoring perspective, but you can kind of see my wall at 2.3m below followed by the sudden breakthrough, and it just fucking rules to feel this progress

BBG practice, which yes, unfortunately means I am playing Jimmy Neutron Vs. Jimmy Negatron. :P

It's kind of unfair how powerful of a game ZR is because even just watching someone else make a genuine attempt at TLB and staking their meta progress gets me tensed the fuck up and the framing of it still makes me tear up from how beautiful the storytelling is

Battle of Olympus infinite olive attempts

I've mostly just been an online person so I haven't really done much about my physical appearance in quite a bit and it's kind of hitting me after getting misgendered at PAX a bunch and a few times at restaurants this week

I know the "correct" response is that people should do better, but I guess I kind of feel like I should do myself a favor and take care of myself a bit more again.

and yes, this was brought to you by someone getting an 18:40 in a speedrun, and saying it was "18:1x pace" :P

Comparing against your sum of best is a useful tool when you're looking at "how far off am I from the best I've ever done?" and there's useful information to be gained there, but if you're not at the point where the run is frame perfect like SMB1, that mindset is gonna hurt you lol

Gotta love those people who look at their sum of best like it's something they'll actually achieve fully in one run eventually.

Fuck's sake, buddy, every run is sum of best pace until it isn't lmao

After so long of "hey our financials aren't great," it's still kind of wild to see the actual shutdown on the horizon. From a mostly-outside observer perspective it felt like it kept going way longer than I expected it to.

I didn't really use cohost and pretty much always felt more comfortable here, but I'm definitely bummed for the folks who liked it a lot. It definitely seemed like the sort of "if this clicks with you, it really clicks with you" place so I can absolutely imagine how painful it'd be to see go for folks that vibed with it.

it is still the espath (e)ra

need the workday to end lmao

(it's a part time gig)

welcome to the era of espathra

I storytold a bunch of games tonight and it was really fun! It was really fun picking out characters from a script and thinking about how they interact, and then seeing how it'd play out.

I really thoroughly enjoy being in a sort of GMing/storytelling position for this game and look forward to running more games :)

doing another few hours of fields of mistria to show off what I've done offline and continue making some progress :)

I actually managed to do this with cocoron which was kind of wild, considering that game was made like 30 years ago and we speak different languages

but if social media let me do one thing, it's tell someone who made a game 30 years ago and speaks a different language "hey, you did a cool thing and I appreciate it even 30 years later :)"

one of my favorite things is being able to tell someone who made something I like "hey, I like the thing you made!"

@junebug frick! haha
