I really feel like a femboy

art test! i downloaded a new CSP brush earlier today and it actually looks pretty nice at low resolution so i'm thinking of utilising it for evergreen... most likely the credit artwork, as i like the current backgrounds.

if you're wondering what mod, it's evergreen 2 - currently the only version of CS i have downloaded that actually runs on my mac so i used it as a quick testing ground

Eli hello!! !!!

So, I heard about Evergreen's progress! As a resident bucket punner, this is great! More business for me!

Problem though. See, Evergreen is fire. Absolute gas. Peak even. However, it might be TOO fire, because it melted all my ice puns! I think we might have a problem.

Regardless, while I get this all cleaned up and have things chill for a bit, I just wanted to reach out and say "Congratulations on the progress!!!".

So uh yeah. Congratulations on the progress!!!

~sincerely, Bucketwon.

P.S.: If you ever get a higher budget for this production, I'd like to be upgraded to a Tubwon. Thank you!

Look forward to something special in two months.

You're still alive I see, how are you?

The flu is making me rot from the inside

evergreen's salad ending is now fully complete and functional in-game, including finalised assets. this is extremely stupid and i can't stop giggling to myself like an idiot every time i think about it, so it's a good thing i live alone

realistically speaking, i intend to at the very least get to the point where everything is done or at least presentable up to the first ending credits; a state which i am more or less at awaiting playtester feedback on the boss and finalisation of assets in the credits, but... it's not even june yet and i plan to release this demo for august's modgala, so i may be able to work on the secret boss and its associated joke ending...????? the pace at which i work is incredibly inconsistent and typically involves a mad scramble to get as much stuff done as possible before my brain loses interest and i don't know if my medication will help with that, so i don't want to promise anything (and on top of that i have schoolwork to prioritise) - i would rather focus on polishing existing content and ensuring its quality before i even think about touching anything new

i also have a bunch of other projects that i should work on getting off my backlog, mostly involving computer repair... i have a laptop i'm fixing up for my cousin's christmas present that i need to order parts for and then test to see if it can pass the necessary qualifications of 'can it run minecraft', another laptop for myself that i also need to order parts for, an old PC i need to get a HDD and discs to make a Legitimate WinXP Installation (Real) for... actually those all stalled because i need to buy most of the required parts online and i baulked at the shipping costs so maybe i need to get 10 billion dollars first and/or just promote my art commissions a bunch. hey if someone wants to buy me two DATO M.2 2230 PCIe SSD 512GB, PCIe Gen 3x4 NVMe 1.3 Internal Solid State Drives Gen3, M Key, Single Sided, up to 2500/1700 MB/s - DP330 Series i can draw a funny image in return

Feeling mighty fine!

semi-related to modding i now know why my dad (who has been wfh for a couple years now) complains so much about cold weather, this shit hits different when you're sitting at a desk for an extended period of time. does not help that my apartment gets zero natural light and if it's already this cold and we're only in may... i need a big fluffy dog to lie on my feet or something...

ahhh i really wish i was in the position to get a dog but my apartment is strictly no pets (and is way too small anyway). i also do not think your average dog could make it safely up or down the extremely dubious stairs to my bedroom (where my desk is) and i don't particularly know how to warn a dog (dawg?) about stairs, bro

evergreen update... i think the first ending's final boss is, more or less, functionally complete both graphically and mechanically - i need to finish a transition cutscene between the first and second phase, as well as set up skipflags yadda yadda... there's some minor things i can do for the second phase in particular (and a bug i still need to get help with squashing in the first phase, but it's not game-breaking), but at this point i think i will switch my priority to the cutscenes and skipflags as well as tidying up the script and map, at least as the priority for today

later in the week, i plan to release a private demo in my personal discord server to get playtester feedback on this boss, which i hope will allow me to polish it even further - i also still need to finish the credits, they're essentially done but barebones/still have placeholder assets art-wise and there's no music yet... i still plan to wait until august/modgala for the public release, so they don't have to be a priority at this point since they give the necessary, well, credits

anyway, once this boss is polished to a satisfactory level... i guess i'll go about implementing the second joke ending, and depending on how much time/motivation i have after that, i'll start working on the secret boss (and third joke ending), since regardless of its completion level, i can very easily lock access if i feel it is not ready in time, so it's low priority...

good lord it's weird to think that i'm going to actually finish this mod

im pongebob

I'm gonna make another ""animation"" based on Dilbert 2 in the next 2 weeks or so.

Protection.

sometimes i wish i were a mimiga

"The wind blowing past me, as I dare not look back to the cursed island.
I try to feel comfortable on the rough skin below me as I fly away with him.
I feel the moon's light on me making me think of those left behind.
My friends, My family.
I push the thoughts away as we continue to fly away.
I stare at the clouds rushing past below us.
As we both fly to a new future away from those I abandoned." -Anonymous


I don't know who wrote this and I couldn't find the author anywhere, pretty cool writing I guess. I also don't even know if it's actually based on Cave Story!

I have a little something I hopefully will post to the Fanart thread this weekend if i finish it in time. Be prepared.
