How hard is it, really, to make a mobile game?
All I want is a basic, first person simulator type game that is actually just a basic simulator type game.
None of this premium currency loot boxes energy limited time offer arbitrary timers gacha mechanic bullshit. No ads. No servers. Everything stored locally and fully available to play entirely offline. Doesn't even need some kind of story.
Just, here's a world for you. It looks pretty nice. Explore a bit. Find somewhere to settle in. Gather resources. Build a nice little house. Basic tools. Go find some seeds. Start a garden. Basic hunting weapon. Bow and arrow. Spear. Net. Go find some animals. Wild deer, chickens, goats, sheep. Kill for meat and skins. Or catch and bring them home to raise. Brought some live animals home? Time for a barn and animal pens. Looks like your garden grew while you were gone. Time to harvest. Might need some plant storage too. And a kitchen. Maybe a bedroom. Tend to your farm and spend the between time making everything nicer. Keep exploring. More plants and animals and even flowers to find to cultivate. Find a cave. Metals. Or maybe a village. Merchants. Time for upgrades. Make new things with new materials. Or buy them by selling surplus supplies. If there's enemies at all, you have to go looking for them. Nothing comes to you looking for a fight. Your home is safe. Keep building and improving and exploring. It's a nice world. Enjoy it.
#ailith talks to the void#I would gladly pay for a game like this#A /mobile/ game like this#Something I can put on my tablet#The current mobile game landscape is such absolute dog shit#And I don't understand why it needs to be#It feels like there just making nice - simple - delivers exactly what it says on the tin mobile games#Or maybe I'm just really bad at finding them#Buried under all the other data harvesting gacha mechanics slop out there#But if I can't find a game like this#Legitimately - how hard is it to make one?#For someone who knows fuck all about coding or making games#How hard would it be to learn?

Columbo and the Knight (1984)
put me in the universe where Columbo ran through the 1980s and had a crossover episode with Knight Rider. I think they deserved it, and I am not just saying that because they're my two favorite Old Shows. @telebeast wrote a little fanfic blurb about it and I HAD to visualize it into a comic (which is also the longest comic I have finished thus far at five pages...), so writing credit goes to them.
Autism W!
#columbo#knight rider#art#michael knight#kitt#comic#highlight reel#crossover#telebeast#there are two small easter eggs here. can you find them. they were somehow not Entirely lost when i resized these for the public#this is what i mean when i say I Draw And It's Everyone Else's Problem. look at my INCREDIBLY niche crossover comic boy#if the knight rider fandom has like 12 people in it. how many of y'all have seen columbo#this comic is for like 4 people and me and phoenix are already two of them#niche is my specialty lets be real. weird niche obscure shit and ships nobody's paid attention to yet#not to suggest this is ship art. columbo has his wife and michael has his car lmfao#stylizing real people is EXTREMELY hard btw sorry for when they get off model. its partly a 'better imperfect than never finished' situatio#cant tell you how much i redrew some of these panels. weeps#this took me 2 weeks but i think i thumbnailed it all in may and the ideas been rollin around in my head since march#is anybody good at editing. please edit michael and columbo into an image together like its a screenshot. NOT generated. edited.#it would be so cool#ive drawn columbo a lot but i haven't drawn a lot of michaels. i was learning things about his outfit AS I WAS DOING THE DAMN#COLORS ON THIS. all the lines done. it was too late to change anything. i did all the lines and colored page by page#i realized my mistakes on like page 3. 1 and 2 were already done. it was Too Late.#imagine it though. them working a case together. switching between the more serious tone of columbo vs the goofier#action antics of michael and kitt. columbo being so impressed by Modern Technology. there's more i could say but phoenix may write#more of this crossover and i don't want to spoil it :'3#there's opportunity here though i swear. there's gold to be dug.#i like how kitt gets shading but columbo's junker peugeot doesn't. kitt looked wrong without any. columbo's car is matte and dirty#i also applied effects to this to make it look a little film-grainy and VHS like. some CRT TV vibes#the only question left is. did they put knight rider into columbo; or columbo into knight rider 🤔

I want to post this here too because I’ve seen it happen a few times

Please understand that there are cultural differences and language differences, if you see this happening let the person clarify what they meant, that person might just not be familiar with words the western side of the internet use
#bearz rambling tag#no it’s not really possible to let everyone who uses this term to change#because as far as I know this is the most common word with use on Chinese websites#I didn’t know that pairing are called ‘ship’ here#like why would I even know that#‘ship’ makes zero sense to me#it took me a while to learn the fandom language people speak here#it’s hard#give people time#shipping culture is very different too#Like on Chinese site you HAVE to clarify the Top and the Bottom of this ship in the ship name#it is very very important to them#people who like the same ship but with different Top Bottom preference will fight till no end#imagine how confused I was when I first got here#where there’s no top bottom differences#it’s not really a smut thing#it’s more a dynamic thing#AxB and BxA is very different#oh I can talk so much about the differences on fandom cultures#if ya are interested in more please feel free to ask#it’s very interesting to me#I wanna talk about it

The Yiling Band Tour!
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#wen qing#wen ning#digital art#animation#This was a fun style experiment and a good lesson in 'hey you have less than a week to make this project. You cannot be a perfectionist'.#Right now - posting these slightly upgraded frames is really helping me stay motivated through the learning grind.#But progress is happening! I'm so excited to show it off when it's done!#Someone with a very discerning eye might be able to figure out what I'm doing with just this one frame. I will take the risk.#That aside; I often think about how the nature of cultivators in MDZS's world also entailed knowing about other art forms.#Meaning that Wen Qing and Wen Ning likely were good musicians and artists.#We know WWX is also good in art and music so...really...what was stopping them from forming a band?#Allow me to pitch this AU: Yiling Opera company AU. WWX and the Wen remnants form a performing trope and tour towns and cities.#Not only do they find a way to keep on the move (no home...only the road and the people around you).#But you also get to be in costume - which is a socially appropriate way to always be in disguise.#Yiling Laozu would thus be a character and/or WWX's stage name.#Would he be good at keeping it a secret? Hard to say with WWX! I think it would be a poorly-kept secret at best.#He likes to brag and show off a bit too much. This many would be either the worst or best spy.#Consider the drama of JC losing his mind over his ex-brother becoming a clown. Imagine JC Getting his ass kicked by said clown.#Imagine the delectable secret identity drama potential of Lan Wangji stumbling upon the trope's performances.#We did not get nearly enough of the secret identiy drama in MDZS canon. I need more of it.#I need that man conflicted with his feelings for the same person. I need them playing mind games with each other at all times.

This is what happened after 3.1 isn't it?
#hsr#phaidei#phaidei nation I humbly offer thee a low quality meme to cope with the doomed yaoi that was going on#phainon#honkai star rail#fellas is it gay for your red coded rival to your blue coded rival to clasp his hands over your own after you stabbed him#due to thinking he was the objective of your revenge quest#pull your sword deeper in and by consequence add to your proximity while smiling and fondly say “Found you.”?#Was it casual when you had an insanely charged and homoerotic scene in the hot baths that had you face down on the ground at his feet?#no but seriously these two have me in a chokehold#what do you MEAN you told him your precise weak spot just in case you became you turned against his cause#and his presumed future EMIYA Archer coded shadow self immediately went precisely for it?#and you KNOW you'll die with a wound in that weak spot in your back and you told him about it anyway#and you tell people to keep an eye on him after you go to meet your fate and then ask him to watch over your people#and he says he'll work hard to learn your language#AND FINALLY#“If there's a chance in the next life you should come visit my library.” WHAT IF I PERISHED ON THE SPOT?!#that's their “See you in the next world.”; their “Do stay alive. I wish you the best of luck.”;#their “I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you.”; “You were a wonderful experience. You were everything.” etc etc#they make me ill (positive)#also I find it so funny that as a KevinSu shipper in HI3rd I went into Star Rail expecting for the dynamic to be more coded with Anaxa#only for Phaidei to hit literally all of my points and favorite tropes in a ship and by consequence my head with a steel chair lol#really hope we see Mydei again soon because literally the first thing Phainon does after he's gone is talk about him all the time#he is a professional yearner and I respect him for it (especially since I too miss Mydei as if he's Odysseus going off to war and sea#for 20 years and I'm Penelope waiting at the shores of Ithaca)#also sorry for the low quality screenshot I was literally too invested in the quest to try and take better ones#gotta love how Hoyoverse is always giving the Kaslanas some of the best romances in their games and ESPECIALLY so if they're queer#myphai

I feel like ppl focus on Bruce training the robins to kick ass from a young age when that’s definitely not all that was. He had to teach them field medicine and how to pick locks and sneak around silently and how to notice things, sure he taught them how to hit things with sticks of multiple sizes, but he also taught them how to grapple around and land from a fall.
They probably had intimidation lessons and interrogation lessons and sessions where they just meditated for hours straight. They’re taught how to calm down civilians and to train their voices to sound different in costume and so many things that would make them the most terrifying children to live with.
Bruce is actively training them to be good at bothering him because they like trying out their new espionage skills at Galas and trying to sneak around him while he’s asleep to prank him.
When we think of training to be Robin it’s easy to think of sparring and gymnastics equipment when it’s fun to remember the other parts of it. Some days Bruce would probably just give the kids a Hunt a Killer box and a time limit.
#I think he’d get weirdly into making training exercises with oddly specific parts#by the time they’re out on the streets they have a lot of tools in their belt not just literally#like just to use batarangs they’d have to practice with darts and throwing knives and then get to batarangs#there’s a target range for grappling guns and smoke bombs and and approx 15 different weapons they have to learn#they would have to have a surprising amount of medical knowledge and various detective skills that definitely make any adult that finds out#-very concerned#they’re taught how to recognize fear toxin and if they’re hallucinating and what to do to keep themselves safe#batman would not go halfway with this shit man#he would be a good teacher as long as he’s teaching the most crazy shit#Bruce Wayne teaching self defense classes in Gotham would go hard though it would be funny#batman and robin#batman#batfamily#batfam#bruce wayne#dick grayson#jason todd#tim drake#damian wayne#stephanie brown

The more confidently certain Murderbot is that no bots have genders or any interest in sex or romance the less likely it sounds. Really? None of them?
Like how bot pilots can only communicate in images?
Or how a human could never really be friends with a bot?
Or how SecUnits are never friends with each other?
It keeps making these sweeping generalisations about things it doesn't have a lot of data outside of its own lived experience to support, and its experience is not universal.
At this point I would not be surprised if Iris hit MB in the face with the revelation that ART hates Holism because they were involved before Holism fucked around and left it for Sum Total.
#No dopamine = no point#My dude (gn) positive reinforcement is one of the three basic machine learning paradigms#You think there's no reward signal to be hijacked for getting nasty?#Be serious#All of these bots were designed by humans#Infinite monkey rules say some of the things we build with self-determination and curiosity will be curious about sex#Anyway Holism is lucky it doesn't have eyes because Iris would go for them#It knows what it did#And the University should stop trying to arrange missions so that Peri and Holism “just happen” to be assigned together#We all wanted it to work out but they have to let it go#Do you know how hard it is to console a spaceship through a break-up#It can't even eat ice-cream#Iris can't do this again#murderbot#the murderbot diaries#murderbot diaries#asshole research transport#perihelion#tmbd#secunit#Holism

BABY JAZZ ORCA GETTIN ALL THE PETS AND TREATSES
Realized I know almost nothing about orcas being held in captivity besides “they do tricks, their fins flop and the life generally kinda sucks there”.
Went to see if there’s more because I need new ideas.
Opened some videos about captive orcas.
Holy shit this is a nightmare material. The literal fucking torture. Change an orca into a human and you will get a category seven psychological horror. How is this even still legal.
Yeah so. Baby orca Jazz might very much enjoy the pets and treatses but those will not save him from angst

#learning how freaking intelligent they are#and immediately after that seeing what happens to them in those aquariums?#I don’t even need to try that hard to see what would happen to a human in the same environment#holy fuck#welp#you know how it is#I can never eskape adding angst#maccadam#apocalyptic ponyo#jazz

Tim Drake: Always the Almost
There’s something about being almost.
Tim Drake was never meant to be Robin. Not really. Not in the way Dick was—the bright, acrobatic first son. Not like Jason—the reckless, fiery second chance. Tim? Tim wasn’t supposed to be a hero at all. He wasn’t chosen. He chose himself.
But even when he did everything right, even when he saved Batman from himself, he was still almost.
Almost Robin.
Almost Batman’s partner.
Almost part of the family.
It’s exhausting being the one who holds it all together, who sees all the cracks but is never quite enough to fill them. He was the one who picked up the pieces after Jason died, the one who figured it all out, who knew Bruce was spiraling long before anyone else did. But when Bruce looked at him, he didn’t see Tim. He saw a kid trying to fit into a suit too big for him. He saw someone filling a role, not someone who belonged.
And Tim did it anyway. Because that’s what Tim does. He steps up. He takes the hits. He keeps going.
But that doesn’t make it any less lonely.
Even when he became Robin, it wasn’t the same. Dick was the golden child. Jason was the one everyone mourned. And Tim? He was the placeholder. The one who kept the legacy going while the real Robins cast their shadows over him. And when Damian came along, when Bruce’s actual son showed up, it was like the universe confirmed what Tim always feared deep down:
He was never supposed to be there.
Damian made it clear from day one. He didn’t need Tim. Gotham didn’t need Tim. Hell, Bruce didn’t need Tim. Not anymore. Damian was the son, the heir. And Tim? Tim was expendable. Replaceable.
It shouldn’t hurt. But it does. It always does.
Because no matter how many times he saves Gotham, no matter how many times he proves himself, Tim is still almost. Almost enough. Almost part of the family. Almost loved.
And the worst part? The part that no one ever sees, because Tim is so good at hiding it—he wants to be enough. He wants so badly to be seen, to be valued, to be the person they miss when he’s not there.
But he knows they wouldn’t. Not really.
Because Tim Drake is always almost.
And that’s the part that will break him.
#tim drake#batfam#angst#tim drake angst#it would be hard to feel like you belong in a place you are shown to not be wanted#i mean both damian and jason had shown their dislike for him when they learned about him being robin#so had bruce#thats gotta do some kinda damage to tims psyche abt never feeling like you belong no?#tim has faced a lot of disappointment regarding familial connections and how he is treated within a family#my poor baby

MDZS Severance AU: Get me out of here.
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#mdzs au#mdzs modern au#severence#It is imperative to this AU that outie WWX and LWJ 1) know each other and 2) dislike the each other.#Meanwhile their innies are actively misusing their allotted breaktime to kiss sloppy style.#I know that some people might feel strongly against WWX being pro-severence here but here me out:#the pitch for severance would absolutely appeal to him. Letting another version of him to the hard work? Not remembering it?#Yeah... he would be absolutely into the idea at the start. I think once he learned more about it he might shift his stance.#As much as most people like to see him as a morally upstanding guy...#...the severance procedure 100% sounds like something he would write a theoretical paper on. if not *invent*.#I'll be back later to write more thoughts. Today's comic is unfortunately brought to you by stomach acid woes.#leaning over to draw was really uncomfortable and painful and I'm not really thinking well at the moment.#Sorry today's comic is both late and sloppy.#Edit: Okay my health is getting back to par so my brain is back online.#So glad many people are on-board or agree with ‘Pro-Severance Outie WWX’. It just fits too well.#Okay LWJ analysis time. I’d put him in O+D with NHS. for the hijinks and just how their characters would function in that role.#LWJ’s innie is caught with a sense of loss and longing. Something is missing. He’s never alone but always lonely.#WWX’s Innie feels the hollowness that outie WWX denies and buries in distraction and work.#Both their outies are Constantly on the move and working. Their outies connect over a slow day.#Two people who both feel empty and see that emptiness in each other.#WWX would have been in the basement for years. LWJ is new and struggling to adjust. They ignite each other’s will to fight.#…This AU might pull another comic from me at this rate. I have a few more things to say.
