For the past couple of months I was on one hell of a Tamagotchi high, but sadly, I think my virtual pet fixation is starting to wane. That doesn't mean I'm losing interest, it just means my interest isn't intense, as other hobbies grip me much harder. I find myself actually annoyed by my v-pets beeping for attention when I am busy with something else, and that's not good. I never want a hobby to annoy me.
So I think, at the end of the month, or possibly earlier depending on how I feel, I'm going to go back to only running one v-pet at a time. I always want to have one running. Always at least one. This hobby is near and dear to me, so I always want to stay engaged with it. Never want to fall off the way I did in the 2000's.
Most likely i'll be running a Digimon. They're low maintenance enough, and they are what got me back into v-pets and even though they're pretty basic compared to tamagotchi, I still consider them my main interest.
All this to say, you can expect my posts on this blog to slow down just a little bit until something catches my attention, maybe the Pendulum color wave 2, maybe the Tamagotchi Angel remakes, maybe something completely new Tamagotchi related, but i'll still try to keep the queue filled and occasionally post screenshots. Like right now.

Look, it's Birdramon, that thing that's really good at beating the tar out of my Digimon on the DM20th. It's currently a Skull Greymon, which means next it's either an evo fail or a skull mammon, which is exactly what I had last run. Love the original Digimon bricks but that small pool of final evos is a bummer.

A Year of Khaos: 2023 Review
Welp. 2023 is officially over and we're onto another year. I wanted to put together some kind of year in review thing and since I didn't get a chance to do it during my final stream of the year, I thought I'd just put it all together into a blog post. So here's an overall look at the year:
2023 was my "throw everything at the wall and see what sticks" year in an attempt to really feel out what I wanted to do with streaming. So my plan was to pick a Thing for each month, really go all-in on it for the month, and make something focused around that by the end. Then change for the next month, rinse and repeat.
I've always been a Jack-of-all-Trades, which is as much a blessing as it is a curse. I CAN do just about anything if I decide I want to do it, but that also means there's no One Thing I'm really good at. The only One Thing I have is something that's borderline impossible to stream, which is writing. So... Project Year. Try everything, see what sticks.
So I present, the various skills I attempted to build throughout the year and the final product they produced:
Projects Completed:
January: Fashion Design - Ironmouse Outfit Contest Entry

(List continues under Read More)
February: Blender - New VNyan Throwables

March: Variety Streaming - Trying different Stream Categories
April: Game Development - Ludum Dare

In addition to the projects I was working on throughout the year, I was also working on the 3.0 model at the same time. Throughout the entire year. Which, I came to realize was kind of a mistake trying to do both. I just barely got the model done in time because my time was so heavily split between so many things. Especially when you add that I was ALSO still editing videos for Youtube all the way until September. (which was a full 12-hour day, twice a week) So I was working on completely rebuilding my models from scratch in a program I was wildly unfamiliar with (blender), doing a new project every month, streaming 3x's a week (usually upwards of 6 hours), AND editing 12-hours a day twice a week to post 2 videos and 2 shorts every week.
It was... a lot.
Last year was a lot.
Too much. Even for me.
There were even a few more things on the list that I wanted to try out this year, but ended up not being able to figure out how to stream it. Baking, for example.
But I'm hoping to find something I can really focus on for the coming year and lessen at least some of my constant uncertainty about what I'm doing with life. And maybe ease up on the work, in general. If I was awake, I was working last year. I was so burnt out and exhausted by the time December rolled around, I had no energy left for my biggest event of the year. Honestly, I'm still exhausted. I wanted to get this post out ages ago but I just had no energy to write it.
I need to ease up a bit next year. Figure out what I actually want to do. But I feel like I have a slightly better handle. Maybe.
We'll see how it goes.
As a final note, here's a list of every game I played throughout 2023, which was honestly a lot. I try to finish as many games as I can, especially the horror games, with the exception of co-op games or sims. Some unfinished games (like Hollow Knight and A Hat in Time) I plan to finish at some point. Others, like Digimon Survive, I've decided to drop for good. Whereas yet others, I'll probably finish on my own as an off-stream game. (Slime Rancher 2 I'll probably play by myself but I've played through Ni no Kuni like 3 times in the past so I'm fine leaving that one where it was).
Games Played - 53 Total
( * - Finished / + - Co-Op/Sim )

My horror game backlog is massive so Indie Horror Nights are guaranteed to return in 2024. Obviously. Horror is kind of a thing. Variety Night is also guaranteed to return because I like having a day where I can just do what-the-fuck-ever.
However, I don't know if Project Night will be a set thing in the future. Additionally, I'm considering adding a fourth stream day but I haven't committed to the idea yet. I want to get back to fashion design but I don't think I'll be picking the seasonal collections back up for this year. Maybe just do themed outfit sets, instead. I may also try making them in blender instead of VRoid this year, as well.
There are a lot of decisions to be made about 2024 still.
I'm not sure what I want out of this coming year yet. But thank you to everyone who puts up with my perpetual indecisiveness, there will be more in the future.
Here's to a new year and new possibilities.
