B is for Bat - Autumn to Z

I'm back! This week was B for Bats! I decided to up my game the tiniest bit and add little bobbing text to the start of all the little games, so Apple now has some text too. Other than that I'm going to just keep making these lil games. Also if you want to see some other cool people doing this challenge, go check out @gothmothart @prickly-problematic-programmer @wanna-alphabet-on-it and @clockquark Not all of them are posting about it but they're cool See y'all next week

Derek Our Life Poll

I'm replaying Derek's route entirely, would we want some of his ABC's at some point, or should I move on to Blooming Panic, and other otome games? (Even if I move on, I'll still be a primary Our Life poster <3)

If you guys want something specific, you can mention it, or give me more ideas to post Our Life stuff with <3

[allbeendonebefore]

it is fun reading historical fiction about stuff you know next to nothing about because you’ll want to travel back in time to kill someone who died almost a thousand years ago and then the author’s note at the end will just like “sorry this guy actually turned out to be one of the most beloved rulers in the byzantine empire, i just thought it was funny to make him an annoying little freak because the main character / author of the primary source basically never mentioned him in her text unless it was absolutely necessary while she made detailed portraits of the rest of her family”

Every week I come into the one work location and there's just... DVDs all out in front of the other ones, blocking the titles so you can only see the ones in front, stacked on their backs, instead of the ones lined up deeper in (see Dia. 1)

So every Wed and Thu, I pick up the ones in front, and stick them on top of those ones, so you can see Every Single Title (see Dia. 2)

Today I had just finished doing this when my coworker came out to relieve my shift so I could go home, and I had noticed some of them were sort-of alphabetised. We don't do this at the bigger store because Customers (also we have hundreds of them on racks, not a single bookcase like this location, and we'd need a dedicated employee to do that and watch customers like a hawk to keep them tidy. There would be fisticuffs). They'll put shit back wherever they feel like it, and trying to keep it organised is an exercise in frustrated futile energy expenditure.

I ask coworker, "are you.... alphabetising these?" to which he replies, "YES! I do it every week and somebody keeps messing it up, so I have to do it again!"

I just blinked, and was like, "Yea we don't do that at the other store, because there's customers who don't give any fux about where they stick stuff back in. This seems a great way to make yourself crazy."

He just looked at me like I was the crazy one

I have this coping theory that though a lot of character stories are like plain and unserious, they’re just technically act one of their character stories and maybe the following acts will get more and more serious in accordance to the progression of the whole story in the game and where they are in that story.

Queer Star Wars Characters (Round 1): General Bracket Match 50

Chass na Chadic | Identity: bisexual | Media: Alphabet Squadron Trilogy

Chass na Chadic was raised in the cult the Inheritors of the Crystal. When she was young, she fled the cult, becoming a “rim rat”, struggling to navigate the Empire due to not having sufficient documentation and being an alien. Inspired by Jyn Erso, who saved her life, she joined the Cavern Angels (surviving members of Saw’s Partisans). As the sole survivor, she joined the New Republic/Alliance Hound Squadron. In a chase through the Ordiol Cluster after the Battle of Endor by Shadow Wing, she was once again the sole survivor, due to Wyl Lark saving her, something she despised. During that chase, she also had a flirtation with the male Ishi Tib Sata Neek. 

She was recruited into Alphabet Squadron, due to her history with Shadow Wing. Their B-Wing pilot, she was brash and aggressive. She liked to fly to music, of which she had an extensive collection of- a lot of it banned. Chass never saw herself surviving the war, thinking of herself as destined to be a martyr. With some genre awareness, she became unmoored post-Endor, as anyone who died then was a fool rather than a hero. During the Siege of Triothe, she became involved with the Children of the Empty Sun cult and found their beliefs seductive. Even after escaping from the cult, she became post-ironically religious- her music replaced by sermons and prayers. 

Prickly to everyone, once Yrica Quell’s actions in Operation Cinder and her seeming betrayal was revealed, her previous sexual tension with the woman became a rage filled obsession. She went AWOL to chase after Quell and bring her back to the New Republic. This mission ended up with the two women and Kairos (another squadron member) stranded on Kairos’ homeplanet, where they had a chance to bond. She flew in the battle of Jakku, where she was seriously injured and made disabled- becoming a cane-user. Her fears of a terrible life as a veteran weren’t entirely released, but she still struggled financially and with her mental health (including suicidal ideation). She went to Quell to demand a place to stay, and began to work with her as an in-system hauler. There she began a relationship with Quell, which combined with the stability of her new life, really helped her psyche heal. 

Sky Graf | Identity: non-binary | Media: The High Republic Quest for Planet X

Sky Graf was a young member of the wealthy Graf family. A year before the Night of Sorrow, their father went missing looking for Planet X. To prove themselves to their family and possibly find their father, they stole their older brother’s ship the Brightbird and deemed up with Dass Leffbruk (who had previously made it to Planet X) and the Jedi padawan Rooper Nitani to use a Force artifact to try to find Planet X during the great hyperspace race. The Force artifact brought them backwards through the planets Dass had recently visited, where they face challenges while also trying to outrun Sky’s brother. During their journey, they also had to take the Path of the Open Hand member Fel Ix as a hostage. Fel Ix began to break through his cult programming, and when the news of a possible battle between the Path and the Republic reached the crew of the Brightbird, he convinced Sky to give up the search for Planet X to travel to Dalna. Fel Ix succeeded by appealing to Sky’s connection with their father by pointing out how he was a father himself. Working with Fel Ix, Sky helped defeat the Graf code that was corrupting the communication buoys in the Dalna sector, preventing more violence during the Night of Sorrow. Their brother, Helis, eventually caught up with them. But the siblings were able to talk about their feelings and reconcile. The two of them would fly the Brightbird together and continue to prospect. But Sky would no longer chase their father’s ghost. Sky’s lifestyle was a combination of the hard and technical life of a pilot and hyperspace prospector combined with the luxury of their family’s level of wealth. They are very intelligent when it comes to science. They are confident, with a prickly exterior. They didn’t connect with Fel Ix the way Dass or Rooper did until the end, not wanting to try to understand the perspective of someone who tried to kill them. When things got serious, they showed a surprising capacity of violence and a willingness to do anything to achieve their goals. They only felt like they had unconditional love from their father, his disappearance driving them even further in conflict with their family. At the end of the book, they are more at peace, but still eager to make their own name separate from the Graf dynasty. Unusually for transgender characters in Star Wars, there is explicit discussion in their internal monolog about how they felt gender dysphoria when they started to go through puberty and how their father got them a binder.

A is for Apple - Autumn to Z

Hello everyone! I am currently partaking in the #alphabetsuperset challenge! For those who are unaware of what this is, you choose a creative medium to work with, and every week for 26 weeks you make something creative based off a letter of the alphabet.

My Restrictions are: Autumn themed Micro-games for mobile!

It is very specific, but having a lot of restrictions can lead to fun creations!

This week's game is A for Apple. You stab your apple with a stick, and dunk it in caramel.

Most of the games will be around this length, so only a few seconds. The goal by the end of this project will be to have a small mobile game akin to WarioWare where you have a series of tiny games to play in quick succession.

That's all I have for today! My goal is to post one of these for every working week of the project at this time! I'll see you all next week!

(Tears of the Kingdom spoilers but idk how to do a read more on mobile sorry)

It turns out you can accidentally play the game in the wrong order to some extent.

———————————

So… apparently Mineru is supposed to be a secret that you don’t stumble across until after the four main areas are dealt with. But the game makes no attempt to bar you from coming across that quest on your own. Which means you can fuck up delivery of the main storyline by exploring and rolling with whatever you stumble into. So that’s kind of a bummer.

I found this out solely because I was curious if there was a way to see better on Dragonhead Island and found out that the storm clears as part of the Mineru quest. Which I’ve already completed. So essentially I have to catch everyone else up to where I’m at to get that to trigger properly.

(I also came across the construct factory way too early and was like “this is clearly something for later I guess”)

I am glad I didn’t do Mineru last though because the Lightning Temple boss was definitely a better one to end on.
