birdsite link, pokemon mystery dungeon, jpop
ooh my
i'm really feeling some comfy jpop vibes right now, and they came from a pokemon mystery dungeon animation i decided to watch again

success!
though admittedly the palette wasn't in the data file, so i couldn't follow along the extraction of it--it's just a big vector without reason
the way i wanted to *try* and find the palette and extract it turned out to be correct though! it just wasn't anywhere i could possibly do that
i also wrote the flags for each tile into their filenames, since there's no other way to express them meaningfully right now
i have such weird associations in my brain
some of them kinda make sense, like maybe i associate "9" with things getting serious, and a particular style of music because video games?
but then there's things like, nand gates remind me of cattle for some reason??
it certainly makes for a wild ride when someone tells me about their day, and my brain goes through wikipedia freefall and lands on wondering who invented street lights or something
i've always wanted to learn how to reverse engineer and analyze data, so i'm super-grateful this exists!
it really helps see what the mindset behind it is--plus doing it in another language just solidifies the hands-on part of all of this
oh hi! i do computers, and sometimes draw stuff~ i like lo-fi things and cute aesthetics!
i also probably like you
