USA people! Buy NOTHING Feb 28 2025. Not anything. 24 hours. No spending. Buy the day before or after but nothing. NOTHING. February 28 2025. Not gas. Not milk. Not something on a gaming app. Not a penny spent. (Only option in a crisis is local small mom and pop. Nothing. Else.) Promise me. Commit. 1 day. 1 day to scare the shit out of them that they don't get to follow the bullshit executive orders. They don't get to be cowards. If they do, it costs. It costs.

Then, if you can join me for Phase 2. March 7 2025 thtough March 14 2025? No Amazon. None. 1 week. No orders. Not a single item. Not one ebook. Nothing. 1 week. Just 1.

If you live outside the USA boycott US products on February 28 2025 and stand in solidarity with us and also join us for the week of no Amazon.

Are you with me?

Spread the word.

i think the near-extinction of people making fun, deep and/or unique interactive text-based browser games, projects and stories is catastrophic to the internet. i'm talking pre-itch.io era, nothing against it.

there are a lot of fun ones listed here and here but for the most part, they were made years ago and are now a dying breed. i get why. there's no money in it. factoring in the cost of web hosting and servers, it probably costs money. it's just sad that it's a dying art form.

anyway, here's some of my favorite browser-based interactive projects and games, if you're into that kind of thing. 90% of them are on the lists that i linked above.

A Better World - create an alternate history timeline

Alter Ego - abandonware birth-to-death life simulator game

Seedship - text-based game about colonizing a new planet

Sandboxels or ThisIsSand - free-falling sand physics games

Little Alchemy 2 - combine various elements to make new ones

Infinite Craft - kind of the same as Little Alchemy

ZenGM - simulate sports

Tamajoji - browser-based tamagotchi

IFDB - interactive fiction database (text adventure games)

Written Realms - more text adventure games with a user interface

The Cafe & Diner - mystery game

The New Campaign Trail - US presidential campaign game

Money Simulator - simulate financial decisions

Genesis - text-based adventure/fantasy game

Level 13 - text-based science fiction adventure game

Miniconomy - player driven economy game

Checkbox Olympics - games involving clicking checkboxes

BrantSteele.net - game show and Hunger Games simulators

Murder Games - fight to the death simulator by Orteil

Cookie Clicker - different but felt weird not including it. by Orteil.

if you're ever thinking about making a niche project that only a select number of individuals will be nerdy enough to enjoy, keep in mind i've been playing some of these games off and on for 20~ years (Alter Ego, for example). quite literally a lifetime of replayability.

Just wanna say like probably many others that your art resonates with my brainwaves a lot, I really vibe with abstract stuff like this that also has kitys in it............ it's highly likely you will soon become absorbed into the inspiration goop sloshing around my head and cause my art to have even more silly kibtys in bizarre abstract colorful worlds in it

i just think the universe needs more of that :3 keep doing whatcha doing it's epic!!!!!!

!!!! thank you SO much!! i wish i could properly word how much i appreciate messages like this.. every little #insp tag or comment like this makes me want to keep creating and creating. so many amaaazing amazing artists have permanently influenced my brain & art and i want to give back however i can. when other people are inspired by my work then the people i was inspired by continue to influence more and more people through me and so on and so forth yknow? that's how we make artists immortal... even if nobody remembers our names someday, our influence is permanent no matter how big or small your numbers are. thats what i love so much about art...

BUT uhm anyway that is to say-- thank yoou very much! <33 i'm excited to see how your art continues to change :3

actually disembodied voices definitely predate sentient text, perhaps they devolved into it thanks to their lack of a body freeing them from any natural predators or something

now did disembodied voices evolve from sentient text or is it the other way around, or are they completely unrelated biologically
