Not a single day missed

I built a cherry leaves railroad tunnel inspired by a post on Twitter X.

A manuscript of Mendelssohn’s Schiflied (Reed Song), from his Op. 71. Mendelssohn and his wife Cécile spent the winter of 1844-5 in the Frankfurt area, where Cécile had been born. While there Mendelssohn made a copy of a song he had composed in 1842: Schilflied (Reed Song), which sets to music words by Nikolaus Lenau. Not only did he write it out in his best hand, he also illustrated it with a meticulous watercolour which depicts the song’s opening line: ‘On the lake’s unruffled surface rests the moon’s fair beam.’ It was a present for his friend Henrietta Keyl, the wife of a Frankfurt wine merchant.

Day 8 – End of the Year Marathon

Once upon a time a man had a garden with a thousand flowers, of which two were very special.

The youngest son came to his father and asked for a gift. The father gave him a precious flower.

Then the middle son came to his father and asked for a gift. The father gave him another precious flower.

Then the oldest son came to his father and asked for a gift. The father took from his sons and gave him two precious flowers.

And then a whisper grew into a voice.

Day 7 – End of the Year Marathon

I cannot believe a single candy cane did it –

totally not A Martian Christmas reference

Day 6 – End of the Year Marathon

This is a... rein-pig.

I actually wanted to do it with a skull in the sewers but didn't take into consideration how lame these skulls were.

Day 3 – End of the Year Marathon

Dieses Herz

I actually like the way it ended up to be. The colours and everything.

Day 2 – End of the Year Marathon

‘May I take the day off, Mr Mandus?’

Without the outline, he turns into a sleep paralysis demon.

Day 1 – End of the Year Marathon

Yee, I'm a little late with this, of course. Nevertheless, we're starting small with this piggy ball.

End of the Year Marathon

It's December of 2023, which means I have not played A Machine for Pigs for a whole year. Phew, and what a year it's been!

We all know AMfP is a cheerful story about cute piggies celebrating New Year's Eve, and that makes it a perfect game to play in the end of December.

So I've been thinking about replaying it starting on the Christmas day which, taken passing two chapters each day, would get the run finished just in the beginning of the new year.

I welcome all fans of the game to use this time to play through this TCR masterpiece yet again (unless you're planning to spend these days with your family — that's more important).

And I'll probably try to fill the void which is my blog with some content while I'm on it.

I'm halfway through Timm Thaler and have already thought of three ways of squeezing out of the contract, two of them potentially ending the story five minutes in. Like, think, boy, think!
