My house is full of people playing Melee so I can hear tons of joystick clicking downstairs.

Orange Julius, the drink where I consume half a cup of sugar but it tastes so good

I should think up some sort of optional twist for my Dr. Mario clone that makes it more interesting than just cloning it exactly. Something that puts my personality into it somehow.

Even though I can just cook my own homemade pizza whenever I want, I still find myself wanting to taste (surprisingly) Little Caesars again.

My Dr. Mario clone has playfield generation implemented now so the core of the game's done. #gamedev #nesdev

After about a day's worth of programming I've got a simple Dr. Mario clone written for NES that mostly just needs viruses and a versus mode. This is going to go into Nova the Squirrel as a minigame, I suppose.

https://soundcloud.com/novasquirrel/groovy I composed this awhile ago as a test because I heard a piano sample I really liked, maybe I should try to extend it into more of a song or just try and compose more in general again.

I actually did eventually check to see what private messages I supposedly had that Kik was emailing me about (since it's still installed on my backup phone) and it was a message from one of their own bots. Uh huh.

Vanilla extract acquired, now I can Orange Julius it up!

In 2019 I want to practice pixel art a lot more and get confident with shading. I want to find a job I enjoy, and I want to finally get cartridges of Nova the Squirrel made.

Best part of having my game's level editor done will be that I won't have to touch menus for a good while. Menus are boring and repetitive to code, and a level editor is like 90% menu.

Now almost everything I want to have in the level editor is in. #nesdev #gamedev

Making lots of progress on the enemy placement editor in Nova the Squirrel's level editor. #nesdev #gamedev

I like to create

Ever find an instrument sample that is just so groovy that it compels you to start trying to write a song with it?

Pineapple still sticks out to me as the one food that's a much better experience canned than fresh. Because it always hurts aaaa

I like to imagine I'd be able to use the fishing rod the same way Isabelle does in Smash :p
