This title isn’t here to frustrate you with absurd logic puzzles either. Forget combining a rubber chicken with a pulley. Since every puzzle in Two Realms: Whispers from the Rift is due to feel natural and sensible in the world and the characters. The result? Challenges that feel smart and satisfying, even if you’re not a die-hard point-and-click fan. The visuals? Stunning. Artist Tomáš Létal, a former concept artist turned pixel wizard, has created a world that feels both painterly and alive. He says pixel art “leaves space for imagination,” and wow, does that come through. Every scene in Two Realms: Whispers from the Rift feels like something out of a forgotten fantasy tome. All brought to life with fluid animation and tiny, powerful details. The soundtrack and full voice acting seal the deal, wrapping everything in tone so thick you can almost feel the fog roll in off the sea. Two Realms: Whispers from the Rift is a title made by people who care — not just about the genre, but about telling a story that matters. Jaromír Janisch, the scientist-turned-developer who stepped away from his research career to make this game, says it best: “I wanted to create something I would enjoy — something that respects your time, your intelligence, and stays with you long after you’re done.” If you’re a Linux player craving a story-driven adventure that mixes mystery, heart, and just the right amount of danger. Keep an eye out for Two Realms: Whispers from the Rift from the Rift when it releases onto Steam in 2026.

Hiiiiii I'm Mason, I'm a sillay guy who likes rats and angels. I'm 23, transmasc, I got them he/they pronouns, and I love art and game development :]

I'm the game dev behind Witch Bait, Frauratte, and Wagasa Post! I'm also the guy who made those goofy cockroach dudes, hoping to get a game out with them soon.

I'm always looking for play testers! See my post here if you'd like to help me with my content. You can get a free sketch commission out of it! :]

I'm very open to art trades with mutuals and my asks are always open!

Artfight: artfight.net/~cherrylux

My commissions are also open!

I kinda drift between media I like, but I love MP100, CSM, most Nintendo properties (ESPECIALLY Zelda, Warioware, and Pikmin!!!), and at the current moment Pizza Tower. I'm also a huge RPGMaker nerd, and I love Yume Nikki, Off, and Hylics!

I used to work in RPG Maker (MZ and VX Ace), but now I'm in Unity using Powerhoof's Powerquest tools for point and click games. I also enjoy coding for websites!

I graduated with a degree in Graphic Design, but I'm honestly happy working with most aspects of art/media/whatever. Drawing, writing, even composing music,,, all very fun, even if I'm better at certain things than others fkdjhgfdkhgkdhgkd

What ages are we talking about for high school? Here in the UK we have primary school and secondary school, with secondary school starting at age 11 (up to 17/18 if you stay on for 6th form). What I listened to at 11 was vastly different to what I listened to by the time I was 15, and that changed further the closer I got to 17 (I didn't turn 18 until after I left school).

At 11 I was still recovering from Spice Girls. Still liked Take That even though they had split up & then Robbie Williams' solo stuff. Other than that I hated the vast majority of pop music being released.

I spent a year just not really listening to anything much other than one album due to just hating everything else. But still absolutely convinced that I hated "loud shouty raaaaaahhhhh" kind of music.

Year 9 I discovered Sum41 & a friend gave me a CD with System of a Down's Steal This Album plus some other tracks from other albums burned on it until it ran out of space. Also the year that in English class another friend was supposed to recite a poem they liked and so they read out the lyrics of Her Ghost In The Fog by Cradle of Filth. They got me to listen to the song whilst reading the lyrics when we were on the train to school to help decide if they should cut out the bit where the woman gets raped by the clergy given we went to a church school. I think I encouraged them to leave it in. Lol Anyway I thought I didn't like it but got the tune stuck in my head & so said friend ended up recording me a copy of that album (Midian) and later another couple of Cradle of Filth's albums/EPs onto cassette tape because I still used my walkman & they didn't have a PC at home to burn a CD for me.

So it was mostly Cradle of Filth for a few years.

In 6th form (so age 16-17) my taste were widened thanks to the mix-minidisc another friend made me featuring a variety of metal/heavy rock bands from Black Sabbath, Alice Cooper & Iron Maiden to Nightwish, Children of Bodom & PowerQuest (and many more!). She also made me copies of some Sonata Arctica albums and so those years I mostly listened to Nightwish & Sonata Arctica.

On my own I added HIM and bit of a Guilty Pleasure was The Rasmus. And mustn't forget LORDI (this was before their Eurovision win) I also found the website metalstorm.ee (now metalstorm.net) which has metal bands sorted in so many different ways. My fave thing was you could look at a band & it would, based on user votes, list other bands which were similar which you might also like. You coukd search by genre & country and all sorts. Fantastic place to discover new music. Its where I learned that I am particularly fond of Finnish metal bands. Even today I will randomly check the list of Finnish metal bands and find that one of my latest faves that Spotify has recommended to me is actually a Finnish band & I'm like "oh of course they are".

So by final year I think the top 5 most listened would have to be Sonata Arctica, Children of Bodom (particularly good for walking fast to avoid missing the train, it would take me the first 3 songs of Hatebreeder to walk from home to the train station, the 4th would be starting as I got there), Nightwish, Cradle of Filth, and HIM. My method of listening was primarily to listen to one album on repeat for weeks/months for maximum dopamine extraction. Then it became time of day dependent.

Super not sorry that they aren't popular mainstream bands, but popular mainstream bands started sucking majorly in the late 90s and never recovered. From what little I've ended up hearing when someone else has mainstream radio on. I grew up as a young child on stuff from 60s, 70s & 80s, my Mum particularly loved Northern Soul & Motown so that to me was good music, we lost a lot of that in the 90s. Most modern mainstream music is so lacking in instrumentation and soul behind the music. It feels cookie cutter & meant to appeal to the kind of people who think a blank white rectangle with a logo is a fashion statement instead of soul sucking capitalist greed. But I digress...

mine would probs be: one direction, taylor swift, ed sheeran, the script and coldplay

The FBI Interrogation Trick That Makes Anyone Confess (Psychology Hack)... by Mind Matrix Ever wondered how FBI agents get people to confess—even when they don’t want to talk? These are real psychological tactics used in high-stakes interrogations, adapted for everyday life. Whether you’re in a negotiation, dating conflict, or workplace tension, these interrogation mind tricks can give you the upper hand. Learn the same mental patterns that break hardened criminals—without raising your voice. 7 PSYCHOLOGICAL TACTICS FBI USE TO FORCE CONFESSIONS 🪞 1. The False Choice Trap Give two options—both benefit you. They feel like they’re choosing, but you’re in control. 🤐 2. Strategic Silence After a question, just stare. The human brain hates silence—most will fill the gap with truth. 🌀 3. Looping Pressure Repeat one key phrase calmly. Over time, it drills into their mind and breaks resistance. 🎯 4. Assumed Guilt Framing Speak as if they already confessed. “Why did you do it?” bypasses denial and invites explanation. 🫱 5. Empathetic Alignment Say: “I understand why you felt that way.” This lowers defenses and opens emotional cracks. 🎭 6. The Good Person Lie Make them feel like confessing makes them “the bigger person.” Humans crave moral redemption. 🧠 7. Memory Fragmenting Break the timeline. Ask about random moments out of order—it disorients and reveals contradictions. #FBITricks #PsychologicalInterrogation #MindControlTactics #ConfessionPsychology #VerbalManipulation #TacticalSilence #FBIInterrogationHack #HumanBehaviorSecrets #DarkPsychology #PowerQuestions #InterrogationMindset #PsychologicalTactics #HowToConfess #TruthExtraction #SocialManipulation FBI interrogation tactics psychology how to make someone confess strategic silence interrogation psychological tricks to get truth how to ask questions like the FBI the false choice technique explained confession hacks in psychology how to read body language in arguments emotional manipulation interrogation how to disarm defensive people how to break resistance in conversation looping pressure technique how to expose lies subtly interrogation methods used by FBI how to win arguments without force psychological pressure conversation how to trick someone into honesty real FBI tactics civilian use what makes people confess psychology using silence as a weapon confession strategies that work dating conflict resolution psychology interrogation-style persuasion methods how to use empathy in arguments manipulating narrative in real time body language truth detection verbal pressure in relationships interrogation psychology explained how to lead with questions everyday interrogation psychology via YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsXyEyY3daI

A Big Box for Brainy Things.

A busy week of finishing things to finally finish once and for all, as well as polishing and cutting down that TODO list. #indiegamedev #madewithunity #idweezil

A little late on this week’s Devlog thankfully because I was busy with Dev! I’m probably going to shift the Devlog date to a different day that finds me with less weariness after a hustle of a week and more gusto. Perhaps Sunday!

Farewell, Power Quest. Thank you for the songs that got me through the toughest parts of my life.

I saw a Powerquest screenshot before Tumblr auto-refreshed and dived through my whole timeline to reblog it because I had to have this proof someone else played the game.

FRAURATTE

Finished my powerquest power jam entry last night!!

Get a glimpse of the cult village Wenigrot and help Frauratte fend off the general's forced proposal in this bite-sized parser adventure game! Made in a week, but hoping to include a big post-jam update with some cut endings and additional missing content that had to be left out due to time.

If you play it, please let me know if there's any bugs or missed parser prompts. And share your thoughts! I love seeing how people enjoy my games, haha!

With another jam under my belt, I'm hoping to move forward with some more Gokiburi-centric content and get a Usagi-chan game out ASAP!
