Stream painting!
Posted on 2023-03-11 07:04



I tested painting on-stream, and it produced this thing! I did the lineart almost 3 years ago but never got around to colouring it. I have another similar, slightly larger piece waiting for colours so I’ll probably do another painting stream later.

Mushroom foraging – traditional Finnish techniques & tips
Posted on 2023-03-08 01:59



A friend suggested making a comic about EXTREME MUSHROOM PICKING. I didn’t go in quite that direction but made a 3-page thing anyway. You can read it here!

New paper puzzle type! I think this one is relatively elegant but explaining the rules still feels like a pain, haha. I hope the writeup makes sense.



And thus:




(Updated thrice; treat the grey cell like the edge of the puzzle)

UPDATE: The third puzzle should now *actually* work. Sorry!!

LANCRE RPG

I haven’t played Lancer RPG but realized a wordplay I quite liked some time ago, and thus we’re here. (Also I really like the mech designs and general concept of Lancer!)

I’ve never read or watched any Magical Girl stuff, but I’ve been following streams from the author of Sleepless Domain and random chats on those streams inspired me. This is not meant to be a criticism of SD, I’m just doing some nonsense

Stuff I’ve made, 2006-2023
Posted on 2023-02-19 19:09



I went through my “finished games” folder to make a spreadsheet of how many games I’ve finished each year, and made a graph about the info gathered. Said folder contains a bunch of non-game programs or things that were submitted for e.g. Ludum Dare but were never really properly finished, so the results aren’t exactly 100% accurate, but it was a fun if self-indulgent pastime. One big point of inaccuracy is also that the 2006 data probably doesn’t contain some old things I thought of as finished but never put available anywhere because, well, they were terrible or I didn’t have a website yet to put them on.

I also went and included some titles I worked on but don’t keep in a personal “finished thing” folder, such as Noita or the ancient Abstractica games.



Also made an updated version later with some even earlier stuff in!

Chicory!
Posted on 2023-02-11 17:53

I played and 100%’d Chicory on my Switch. What a fun game! It was interesting to notice how a game about painting could to some extent inspire one to actually put effort to drawings no-one else will probably ever see; I guess it can be chalked up as a point in favour of the game’s writing that I cared enough about the characters to want to paint the entire game world (although some areas not on the map got noticeably lazier colouring).

THAT SAID, I did also paint some stuff that I thought I’d want to show others; I’ve posted them on Twitter and Cohost already, but why not here as well?? So here we go:

Sci-fi TTRPG doodles
Posted on 2023-02-02 07:44

I’ve been participating in a Stars Without Number TTRPG campaign led by a friend, and doodling about the various things we’ve seen throughout it. I thought I had posted some earlier doodles here but I guess not. Anyway, here’s some art!


Space elevator and my character’s bus that he drives


Random stuff


Harrison’s, the space motel owned by the family of one of our characters


The Shelter, a desert town of Shady People


Hideout of one of our characters, Olive


Spaceship designs


Space snacks inspired by Uramachi Sakaba


Space yakitori stand


Shay, a bird person who owns(?) an auction house


Desert hideout


A droid we found in our ship


Flying in the Fold (with an inscrutable Finnish pun)

Welp, that was quite a bit of stuff. Oh well.

Huh! Looks like I never posted about this puzzle type on my blog! I made it at the start of 2022, but initially assumed that the result would be too minimalistic/simplistic to make for fun puzzles. This turned out not to be the case(?), but this initial hesitation might explain why I didn’t post it here back then. Apparently Jack Lance from the Thinky Puzzles community did a better explanation of the rules that I then adopted. Thanks!







EDIT: Pedro PSI from the thinky community has ported this type to their paper puzzle website, Kudamono! Check Bricklayer there.
