SUPER MARIO RPG IT IS THE ONLY ONE JUST FOR ME WHEN I PLAY THE GAME, I GET LOST IN A PHASE THEN I FIND OUT I'M STUCK IN GENO'S MAZE

This is one of my favorite games of all time and I haven't played it in over a decade! Not since I put my Wii away, in 2009...Yet, I never forgot how much I adored it. The only reason I didn't freak out when the remake was announced was that....well, obviously my mind has been elsewhere, and I've been occupied....but now that I actually have it? I'm so hyped!!

I cannot overstate how into SMRPG I was. I think I've mentioned it a couple times on this blog over the years when the topic of fav video games comes up, alongside more obvious choices like Splatoon, Smash, EarthBound, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, Kirby Air Ride....and yet I've never actually gone into detail gushing over this one cuz my hyperfixation for it ended long ago.

But in high school? Junior year specifically, this game was EVERYTHING. Alongside my own playthrough, I watched Chuggaaconroy's LP of it multiple times. I was obsessed with both Mallow and Geno at separate times. The fan song "Rawest Forest" was one of my major single song obsessions that year (and I still listen to in the present, holding the title of "only song that uses the r-word that I like" due to the power of nostalgia)

For god's sake, I made humanizations of Geno and Mallow, as well as anime versions of the whole party, and drew a comic based on "Rawest Forest" that I still have alongside a buttload of other doodles. No, I won't share them. I never shared them, even on DA with my other old doodles. Certain things about the SMRPG ones have aged poorly, so I'm not gonna dig them out. But just take my word for it that my human Mallow in particular was a character I'd doodle CONSTANTLY in class. XD

SMRPG is a game that's very near and dear to me, but unlike my other favorite games, I've only beaten it once. Let's flipping change that. I've heard really positive things about this remake, like how it added more content, but honestly? As long as its faithful enough still the trigger my nostalgia and remind me of why I had so much fun with it, I'll be happy. <3

Mallow wishes you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays🎄✨

Hey… have you ever felt like you’re in space?

Just floating through an infinite void where nothing is happening and literally everything is happening without your knowledge at the same time?

And you have nothing but your thoughts and yourself to accompany you?

You just can’t do anything about it… just sit there… floating indefinitely?

Yeah me neither…

80. Super Mario RPG (2023)

Pretty damn good remake. The new additions to the game are all really nice—overflow chest, bestiary, more superbosses, cool shit. It did feel a tad too easy, but the last time I played through the original was when I was in middle school—so I wasn't exactly good at video games back then. So who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m SUPER grateful to of participated in both the Geno and Mallow collab @thinginator had hosted over on Twitter! Check it out when you get the chance! Everyone worked super hard, and I especially enjoyed meeting all of them and being motivated to participate and progress my art! The Mallow collab also technically counts as a super late, day 8 Inktober for the Toad prompt, so that works out!!

As listed, we have:

TerminalMontage’s Geno.

The Geno doll from Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga

A very happy “family” oriented Geno… 👀”

Sage Mode Mallow and a reluctant Gamabunta

And finally an inside joke of amazing proportions, Mallow-ful mode! With Mallow’s favorite food, glue :)

Once again please go check out the collab over on Thinginator’s Twitter, everyone did fabulously and deserve so much credit for their hard work ^^

(late night shitpost) I like to think the real reason the Hypnosis Priest got removed from the Cloaker/Domino/snakes battle is bc she was being a total pest and Domino wanted her ass OUT

Like he just loves to spend time with his husband, gets mushy around him, and this awkward stick just floats around like ":^) hi" whenever he wants to be intimate

The two got fed up and complained to Smithy to move her elsewhere.

Though I’d post this here:

Currently I’m not able to stream, but back when the SMRPG remake came out, I did stream it and posted this silly graphic on my twitter page.

I wanted to share this graphic.

I have to somehow copy/transfer all my OBS/Veadotube settings from my 2019 laptop to my 2023 laptop because i dont have space for both laptops on my kotatsu, then i plan on streaming assorted things maybe in the summer. Let’s home I don’t face any more disasters.

*slaps yearly art summary* wow well that was a whole year!

yearly commentary below 8)

wow ok so 2023 was a lot. work and school basically griped me and ran me dry so doing any art was honestly a miracle at all, esp with some of these months where i literally just drew One Thing and then vibed and doodled unpublished nonsense.

i have, of course, my friends that stayed with me along the way to thank for for trucking along this year. even though we dont really speak as much as say Last Year, its just nice to rely on others to talk to and stuff. even if we havent talked much, i still remember lol

uhhhh what else oh yea i sorta wish i was a b it more social, or generally more outgoing? idk i dont really put out my thoughts as much and honestly if i want more engagement then i should sorta have something out there for ppl to, yknow, engage with. idk. again, whole job and school balancing thing. and like i said, im just honestly happy i could pick up a pen and not rlly have a Huge art block where i cant even doodle things yknow.

thanks for pikmin 4 and smrpg switch ver existing, very much changed part of my internal chemistry lol

uhhhh my tip is draw even the stupidest idea you got cause then at least youll put a smile on your face while doin it

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! (2023)

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYBODY!!! It's October 31st, and you know what that means!!!.. Well, it's-- it's Halloween. I already blew my load on that one too early.

I decided to dress up the gang in stuff I'm looking forward to or already enjoying this fall season.

We've got… HERO! As INVINCIBLE! Invincible Season 2 is dropping, uhhh. This Friday! In fact. The show prompted me to read the comics, and!… Uh, the show is much better, in my opinion. Much better written and much better paced. But hey! Invincible came out in like, the early 2000's. They did pretty good for themselves back yonder.

CHERRY! As RAMONA FLOWERS! The Scott Pilgrim anime is taking off (pun intended) on Nov. 17th and I am HYYYYPPPEEEE

HOWARD! As MALLOW! From the Super Mario RPG remake, which is ALSO dropping Nov. 17th! This is gonna be a packed month. SMRPG was one of my favorite games back in the day and I still bust it out every couple of years. I've hit a point where I've practically mastered it and know all the secrets though, so it'll be nice to have a refreshing new take on it. I even fostered a "Lowest Coins" challenge on the game.

DIANE! As SHADOWHEART! From Baldur's Gate 3. I haven't touched that game in like 2 months now. I'm sure I'll pick it up again. PLEASE notice how much more detailed and different scale she is. I take this to mean Atari really enjoyed drawing her.

EIKRE & RABBLE! As RICK & MORTY! The newest season kicked off a few weeks ago and I'm enjoying it. I've never been a R&M elitist so the episodes and new voices are fine, but none of them have blown me away so far like some other episodes have.

Mysteriously missing from this list!? Star Ocean: The Second Story remake. It's a JRPG with a tan elf main character, and I didn't make Cherry dress as her? Low hanging fruit, man. Star Ocean 2 is one of my absolute favorite JRPGs from way back in the day and I'm excited to give it a shot with the remake. It's one of those ones I never finished because there was just SO much to do. I also really loved how every little thing had an interaction, or little moments between the characters that genuinely made you feel like they'd formed a friendship. Good stuff. That drops… Thursday!? Oof, I'm never going to have time for all of these. I'm ALREADY playing a 100+ hour game on top of ANOTHER 100+ hour game and I've already got a few other games lined up. Ugh.

Oh, also? I pre-ordered Star Ocean months ago and its delivery date is listed as 2 weeks from now. I'm sorry, what was the point of pre-ordering??? Anyway, it's fine. Like I said, I have so much to play already that those 2 weeks won't even make a difference.

SO! Go enjoy your Halloweens, but no matter what you do tonight, remember the absolute most important thing about today---- it's my birthday tomorrow. 😎

Boom! Happy treating! (Or tricking.)
