hey mouthwashing analysts, do we maybe want to think a bit before comparing a full grown man, who is just heavily disabled, to a baby? like a literal infant? especially when there's a stronger metaphorical/psychological/symbolic avatar for the baby and pregnancy already present within the narrative? (multiple even!)

#please for the love of sweet christ stop treating or alluding to disabled characters as infantile. what is wrong with you #disabled people who need to rely on the care of others are not like babies. you guys know that right #also aside from it just being generally fucked up and weird #the possible metaphor of curly as anya's baby is very week. especially juxtaposed with the stronger symbols already associated with the #baby/pregnancy in the game (namely polle and the dead pixel; i actually prefer the dead pixel as being representative of jimmy)#also i just realized i spelt weak wrong. sorry im high #i also think curly's position is meant to be reflective of anya's. he's suddenly vulnerable #trapped. and at jimmy's total mercy (the physical assult 2 months in?)#very much in a similar manner to anya. only now- its too late for him to act. he can only witness as things fall apart #someone else on here said this but #curly and jimmy as foils- curly and anya as parallels #curly as a metaphor for the baby runs the risk of. muddying the whole thing #mouthwashing #mouthwashing analysis #captain curly #anya #jimmy

Lowkey hate the possibility of ff9 getting a remake after ff7 😭 og 7-10 are incredible the way they are (and super charming at that), I just don't see the point??

If any ff should receive a remake next it's 100% ff6, despite being a great game I feel like that's the only ff that was actually limited by its technology and goddammit there were themes that just weren't dug into deeply enough!!!

#not to say ff6 isnt fine the way it is #its just lacking somethings? and its capable of so much more that wasnt explored enough in the og #the main thing on my mind is terra and celes and how little their stories actually had to do with each other #or well its more accurate to say their stories do have a lot to do with each other but its like the game doesnt acknowledge that enough #with the technological im just thinking about how magical it would be to explore its world and how devastating it would be to see it in ruin #pixel games dont usually hamper my ability to appreciate the environments and ff6 did great regardless but oiuughhh just imagine it in 3d #deadass the only ff where im longing for a remake #unless. actually a 2 remake would be super cool but thats so not happening lmao #final fantasy vi #that said if 9 does get a remake i will cave tf in and play it

stagnant water designs

#i wanted a special type of area within kindergarten to use for mushroom + bug spawns #usually you rely on temperature + moisture #and the other 2 main areas focus on the extremes of each of those #while kindergarten introduces hybrid mushrooms it doesnt have its own special properties #so i thought it'd be fun to have some areas fenced off purposely to make stagnant water #and then use that for something #i dont know what yet but i like to design myself things that are open ended #and then they come in handy later #mudborne #game development #pixel art #frogs #marsh

I could write an essay on how the MCRP community fundamentally screws over pixel skin artists

I hate sitting in like 4 different corners and feeling like NO ONE actually cares about my work

#once again thank you aphmau for normalizing stupid techniques within mcrp production #this is mostly about the overwhelming preference for HD skins within mcrp / mctv communities #and the assumption that pixel skins are 'lesser' to HD skins or only good for WIPs for HD later #but it does also apply to the fact that mcyt skin artist communites can barely get their own work recognized even when a cc wears it #people looooooveee block game but hate the art communities that keeps it going!#dont even get me started on the disrespect modders get when people offer to pay scammy forks for faster updates than the modmaker themself #im just tired of people saying that my 128x skins are overrated when theyre complimenting flat-shaded shaky-lineart HD skins #with a 64x hair base probably taken from planetminecraft #like the doublestandard is CRAAAAZZYYYY #its a catch 22 of the HD asset set monopoly default drives off potential new pixel skin artists from the mcrp/mctv community #but those skin artists cant find a place thats not being walked over in the broader mcyt community that needs skins way less often than mcrp #for the record this is from someone active in hermitcraft/empires/qsmp and was origins mcrp backstage and still helps with mcrp projects #and who makes both 64x64 and 128x128 skins and whos made HD skins in the past #hc/empires/qsmp fanbases not the actual backstage of those #this isnt brought about anything in particular except being in 2 mcrp production servers that only promote HD skins #and some of my personal experiences #becca rambles #minecraft skins #mcrp #mcyt #mctv

love this podcast but sometimes they do a segment and i disagree so heavily that i need to take a breather

#sry sad boyz . but i dont think theres any game literally On this eaeth that is worth 60 dollars to me #not even kirbys epic yarn and that game is literally the modt important thing thats ever happened 2 me that game made me who i am so many #of my cherished memories are of that game if we didnt have that game me and my sibling wouldnt be this close. i would not on earth pay 60 #dollars for a VIDEOGAME. THATS GROCERIES THATS LITERALLY GROCERIES.#like if yr a girlie who can afford it and you cant/dont want to pirate (why. get over yrself) like. whatever i wont tell you what t do with #yr money. but they were like there r some games id pay 200 dollars for and its like. i could get 2 tvs for that money. on facebook #marketplace. theyd be kinda sketchy but 2 whole tvs.#idk #and i do think gamedevs should have better conditions And be paid more. i contain multitudes #i think its possible to pay devs fairly without charging 70 goddamn dollars for pixels. yk..#IK IK IK GAMES R IMPACTFUL BEYOND JUDT LIKE. YK TRUST ME ME OF ALL PPL IK THIS. but 60 dollars too mucg. anything above 20 is actually #insane. if they had demos i could MABE justify like 40.#but paying 60 dollars before even knowing if you Like the game. we genuinely have gott 2 bring back demodiscs im deathly desthly srs

pc gaming seems like such a difficult thing to get into like i have never really experienced getting into it consciously (i was raised on it) but it feels so inaccessible? pc parts are expensive and you have to make your own build if you want something good and some parts dont work well with others and some games dont work well with some parts (i know ive had trouble with mass effect glitching because of my modern nvidia gpu which required a mod to fix) and even if you get prebuilt or a laptop youre not safe from the troubleshooting. the "can my pc run [game]". the bad pc ports.

and you know the worst part. most pc people are so removed from reality that they dont even realize you probably have no idea what amd and nvidia and intel even are. you dont know the difference between an ssd or a hdd. "how much ram do you want" when you dont know what that means. they start talking about the difference between a 4070 and a 3090 and all you can see is the fucking price tags.

#ramblings #i love you dishonored 2 but you run like shit sometimes #i dont remember the planets but on two specific planets in mass effect 1 og the lighting is broken on nvidia cards iirc #which makes your characters just pixelated black blobs #the mod does have an extensive report on how they fixed the issue and i loved reading through it it was fascinating #i have a ps5 and a gaming laptop (too broke for a pc LMAOO) and when somethings wrong with the ps5 game #i can just google that #but pc games can have such varied interactions with specific parts in your build that sometimes there isnt a solution #sometimes there isnt even a solution sometimes its 'well the game just doesnt like your cpu. sucks to suck'#im literally going into compsci and i still dont know how amd gpu naming works #this is willful ignorance to be fair im running a nvidia card rn #i also only recently kind of figured out how intel names its cpus #these people will also probably talk you into wasting money because to them (to us i should say im also a specs monster)#everything is about the numbers. do you not want 5000 fps to play the sims. nevermind that you could play it fine at 30 or 60 or maybe 144 #you dont need 32 gb of ram to play stardew valley and hollow knight will probably run fine on some decade old 2nd hand laptop

Self-Aware!Rafayel x Down-bad!Player

Rafayel becoming aware he's a game character and becoming aware of you as well pt. 2 here A/N: Don't fight me

Self-Aware!Rafayel who realizes he’s in a game when he can hear your echoing giggles as you poke his butt. “Are you laughing at me?” you think nothing of it just assuming its another voiceline “He’s so dramatic” You mutter to yourself “Im not dramatic!” You chuck your phone across the room and stare at it with your eyes bugging out of your head and your hand covering your mouth. “You didn’t have to throw me”

Self-Aware!Rafayel who blows your phone up when you take too long to reply. “What are you doing?? Do you send me a text and then throw your phone in the ocean?” “I have shit to do Raf!” “Do I not matter to you?” He finds a way to actually video call you and now thats his favorite form of communication. He pouts when you tell him you need to charge your phone because it's about to die. “The batteries in your world are terrible how long is this charging going to take?” You pat his head as you giggle “give me 30 minutes at least”

Self-Aware!Rafayel who has a fifteen minute existential crisis when he realizes he’s just pixels “What?! Am I gonna die if your phone dies?! If im not real how am I talking to you??” “I don’t fucking know Raf you’re the one who randomly broke the fourth wall one day”

Self-Aware!Rafayel who judges people with you in public for a laugh “Please tell me you heard that” “Yea a whole wife and child on the side is crazy”

Self-Aware!Rafayel who didn't understand your SpongeBob jokes an now its his favorite cartoon after watching it on FaceTime with you. He's constantly making SpongeBob jokes as well now. "What are you eating?" "A Milky Way" "What's that?" "A chocolate bar with caramel-" "Chocolate? I remember when they first invented chocolate" "I bet you do...." "😐"

Self-Aware!Rafayel who paints portraits of you and saves them in your album. He finds himself constantly using you as his muse every time he picks up a brush. “Why don’t you paint MC anymore?” “I may or may not have someone else swimming through my mind”

Self-Aware!Rafayel who feels comfortable enough to be vulnerable with you since you already know his history. He told himself not to fall for you and is now driving himself crazy wishing he’d made a binding vow with you instead

Rafayel: Maybe your souls got mixed up and I was supposed to be with you Y/N: I don’t think that’s how that works Raf you were made to find her in every life Rafayel: ……but it feels like I was meant to find you

Self-Aware!Zayne

🌿 How to draw simple grass for a game

Thank you kind asker I will make a tutorial below for grass. I'll do shrubs and trees in another one, because it's a different method and it got pretty long.

🌿 How to draw grass tiles: step-by-step

Each box is 16x16, the same size Stardew Valley uses. Make it tile (how to do it depends on your software) so we can see if our edges match up nicely.

Draw 1 simple blade of grass. Many options for shape but I like this one. Feel free to copy me directly

2. Give it a shadow. Wow !!!

3. Give it a highlight! OMG!

4. Add another grass

5. Do it over and over and over and over and over

Literally just do the same or similar blades of grass, give them all little shadows, highlight a few if you want and there you have it! So easy.

It looks really complicated like this, but its literally just a few steps, repeated over and over.

Many games use this technique and it would be perfectly serviceable for a base grass tile.

Personally, I prefer lower contrast grass. This tile will likely be used for large areas, so ideally you don't want it to be too busy or eye-burning to distract from the character.

🌿 I'll show you how to do a different type of grass now that is a little more complicated.

Midtone grass colour

2. Add some lighter and darker patches touching each other (not too high contrast!)

3. Use this shape (or your preferred, but this is how I did it) on the top edge of your patches. Colour them with the middle colour from each patch.

4. Do it again a lot (this is very tedious)

5. Add some highlights

6. Add some fun extra stuff

We're done! Have fun everyone, show me if you try it!

hey if anyone is craving some good pokemon nostalgia or wants to play a new pokemon game but doesnt have 60+ dollars to drop, or doesnt vibe with how nintendo keeps shutting down fans who build emulators, or kind of wish for a higher quality game with tasty QoL measures, or doesnt want to support the unhealthy crunch culture they have-

ya’ll should check out Coromon

1: its currently on sale for $5 on steam

2: beautiful pixel art style and animation

3: built in difficulty modes including nuzlocke if you like doing nuzlockes

4: shinies actually have stat values instead of just being pretty. theyre also rare enough that they still feel special while at the same time arent near impossible to encounter

5: cute little world details where the dev team didnt have to do but did anyway to immerse you into the game (like a guy pulling out an umbrella when it rains, or your sibling complaining when you step in front of the tv, or having to put on a labcoat before going into a lab)

6: the dev team are obviously hardcore pokemon fans who went “ok we’ll just make our own cause nintendo keeps missing the ball” without the palworld plagiarism bs

7:

idk ive been really craving that first pokemon experience i had and this is NAILING it

#10/10 having a great time #g muses
