I'm genuinely not sure if i could fully convey how excited I am. This may genuinely be the most ive ever popped off at a Nintendo Direct

Not only are these two obscure-but-beloved games from the Nintendo vault back but the facelift on the first game especially is drop-dead gorgeous. The Another Code duology is immensely important to me and directly connected to the far more well known Kyle Hyde games - Hotel Dusk and Last Window - made by the now defunct CiNG. Nintendo had 0 involvement in these games beyond publishing and they made note of their poor sales back in the day - yet they're back!!!!!! More beautiful than ever!!!!

I swear people don't talk about the shit that just happens in DS visual novels enough. Like yeah okay we lawyering but you better get this parrot to cough it up on the stand. Hey let's do a detective story but have the presentation be just one of the most impressive uses of the hardwares capabilites and be the most visually interesting shit ever just because. Yes you are a surgeon slicing and dicing and laser beaming the fucking patient but can you disarm a bomb

Hey there!

Do you like gore, flowers, and visual novels?

Well I’m happy to tell you that The Woods At Dusk is now OFFICIALLY in production!

The Woods At Dusk is the first in a series of horror(ish) visual novels under the umbrella name of Vys Very Fun Adventures.

In a post apocalyptic world, Vy is in for some trouble as she’s bombarded from every side by murderous mutants- some of which want to… date her?

Follow @vys-very-fun-adventures for more information, updates, and art for the game! I’m really excited about finally being able to make this dream a reality, as it’s been an idea since at least 2021, but I only just now got my own laptop to make it via RenPy!

Cool art!

Freaky Rose Monster!

Support a small (very gay) artist!

This account @saffitaffi is my main account I use for all my projects, but @vys-very-fun-adventures is all about Vy’s Very Fun Adventures! TWAD might release in 6 months, a year, or two years, but it WILL come out, eventually

…eventually…

Our Dreams At Dusk tribute piece with the Lunar Boy cast~

This manga was truly informative to me and is a constant source of inspiration for Lunar Boy.

Blurb

The Empire would say the Blooded who ruled the land before them are dead and gone, but those onboard the Oathbreaker know it to be a lie; one look at the captain's ward will tell you that. Shye is one of them. A Stormborn, Dusk Blooded, Strange . . . an enemy of the Empire, and he has just blown his crew's cover on imperial docks. Shye wants to stop hiding, to learn the secrets of the Blooded, and discover what being a Stormborn truly means. The answers to the fading of the Blooded and all Shye's other questions must lay in Mistral, the capital of the Empire, and Shye knows that the bounty hunter dispatched to capture him can take him there. Dorian just wants freedom. But such a goal is constantly threatened by the demands of their noble father, who wanted a perfect, controllable heir . . . he got Dorian instead. It is only their reputation that keeps them safe. The assignment to track down a rumoured Stormborn, a being of legend in tales told to guild children, could destroy that reputation forever if it turns out to be a lie. But, if the rumour is true, Dorian will be untouchable in the eyes of the crown and beyond their father's reach forever. There can be no better coronation gift for the crown prince than a Stormborn. The hunt has begun. They will find him. And when they do, he will bring down the Empire from within.

Season 6 No Album Release (Read More) Blue Lady - Last Window: The Secret of Cape West

Ripped by adumb

In running this blog, I try to keep a pretty even balance between a lot of things. Popular, unpopular, genuinely excellent music, hysterical punchline, and so forth. Part of that balance, too, is in highlighting rips that mean a lot to me, versus their impact on the channel as a whole. But today, I really want to be self indulgent.

I think one of the absolute coolest things about SiIva being this amalgamation of different creators' visions is that everyone's love gets to shine through in different ways. It reminds me a lot of something like the r/place canvas - this vast field of everyone's passions spread about everywhere, some loudly, and some more subtly. I've already described how much music I've only found out about through being used on the channel, and that sentiment also extends to games. But to me, it swings the other way too: It warms my heart beyond belief to see niche games that I love get attention by the SiIva team.

A rip like todays is still sitting at just barely over 5K views with no album release, in large part due to being a rip of a very obscure Nintendo DS adventure game. Last Window has comfortably been sitting in my personal list of favorite games for a very long time, and it makes all fan content you find that much sweeter when you know just how uncommon it truly is. Because of that, and due to the general excellence of the rip itself, this track has been sitting in my YouTube playlists since it first released.

The two Kyle Hyde games just have this type of sound that's so unique to them, a kind of lounge-y jazz that's coated in DS-flavored marinade, that makes any song rendered in their style just pop. Though I lack the emotional attachment to the Persona 4 song used in this mashup, it fits the Last Window instrumentation like an absolute glove and highlights the emotion of both tracks simultaneously.

My perception of adumb's rips is very much like what this rip in particular means to me - his track record gives off the feeling that he's doing this as a fun way to show as much love as possible to the media he loves. I can talk all day about the quality and excellence of rips with 50 different jokes and visual elements, but...showing that love is so important, no matter how its done, or how many people you target it toward.
