the one thing all neighbours have in common is their profound need to stare into the horizon like "man"

"re return to the ghost of evermore"
it's one of jenny nicholsons sequels to her evermore video on patreon, and i desperately wanted to listen to it as i playtested haha
tagging: @akyrahaiato @tootkin-goblin @saffronaa
I have a tag game idea.
Reblog this with the last thing in your search history (If you don't wanna share it, that's fine ofc) then tag your moots
I'll start:
'Indiana Jones punching nazi'
No pressure tags: @manyfandomfanatic, @ruthiejacquelinerambles, @bobasbag, @palmolli, @realta-the-demigod, @vixxy-izzy, @nerdygremlininthewalls, @elronthemage,@blizzdreemurr2, and anybody else who wants to join!
#out of all the evermore videos this is like the most thrilling one#they brought kanye west to their fantasy theme park to convince him to invest!#and he got angry at a statue that looked like 'jesus being killed by a demon' and they tried to calm him down with singing dwarfs!#all of the buildings are pre-fab and rotten and loaded with stone decorations that weigh thousands of pounds!#it's a miracle no one has died in there!#amazing stuff 10 out of 10

#hate when this happens#my doppelgänger never shows up when I have to confuse the guards at the aquarium. but pops up when I’m taking in the views @the-quasar-hero
typical dopplegänger behaviour. in twinkleby, all dopplegängers are created as inverted versions of their counterparts. an introverted neighbour will have an extroverted dopplegänger, etc etc. very hard to get a dopplegänger to do what you want, when their wants will always be the opposite
that feeling when you try to enjoy the view but your doppleganger is back from the dead
#and the ultimate end game?#make the neighbour and their evil dopplegänger fall in love despite their differences#twinkleby hard mode is marrying theodore and evil dopplegänger theodore#at least if i get to call the shots i mean#which i don't the team will decide#we'll see what happens when relationships are introduced haha#i am team dopplegänger romance all the way

they absolutely refuse to be in the same room but they keep longingly staring at each other through any available door or window
#meanwhile lucretia is outside severely depressed#because she's outdoorsy and and an extrovert#and none of the others go outside to chat with her lmao#twinkleby#unity#game development#indie games#cozy games

fun fact about me: i am the proof that the "like riding a bike" idiom is, in fact, incorrect. i learned how to ride a bike when i was a kid, but then spent years not riding bikes, and now whenever i get on one i get into horrible crashes. worst one to date was probably at a previous job when we were on a business trip and a manager was like "it's so beautiful here! lets rent bikes and bike to our next meeting", and so we did, and i got on my bike, and -- standing still, not even pedaling yet -- tipped straight into a ditch full of cacti
@the-quasar-hero @queer-of-swords @tootkin-goblin @saffronaa
ok imma do a tag game where you give a fun slightly weird/disturbing fact about yourself! (there still has to be a slight fun factor to it)
fun fact about me: i was born purple and it’s still my favorite color
npt: @traumadumpwriter @xxl1ly-1n-ch41n5xx @la-gotica-fantasma @child-of-frey @tbiggestman @yourlocalstilinski-valdez @ssseashell @anythinggoesbutme @inkstainsonmysheets @coralchaoseagle @rue-all-names-was-taken @shootingstargirl2001 @hollydayxoxo @liaisbroke @hopeless-umii @ultimategazer @hrzsthydn @jasperhaleobsessed @darkvelvetsweetie @colourobserver @pho-pho @blueotter24 + open tags
#to this day i will point to cacti and be like 'i remember what those feel like' to anyone that will listen#ask game#thanks for tagging me <3

the intention: ooooh you've unlocked the game's ˖ ࣪ ⊹°˖✧ four seasons ✧˖°⊹ ࣪ ˖ do you hear the music? the acoustic guitar of fall? the thrilling strings of spring? now you can compose any scenery and music you want ~
the reality: you've unlocked your local pie shop's fridge cleaning pizza
trying to be all classy when i write achievements and falling into research holes on classical music and literature, but then i went and named one "Le Quattro Stagioni" after vivaldi's "four seasons" and unfortunately -- as the uncultured swine i am -- i associate that title with pizza every damn time i see it
#at least in sweden this pizza is just whatever the shop wants to get rid of at the time#or ingredients they always have in excess#don't think i've ever seen a quattro stagioni with the original ingredients in my life lmao

OH MY GOD THIS IS INCREDIBLE??? also damn i love the idea of using theodore's glitch-faces as actual interactions/reactions for things -- will definitely have to look into if that's a possibility at all haha
@twinklebyisnthere it's always such a delight to see your posts on the community, I just had to make a small quick fanart!
#thank you so much this made my day!!#i think it's officially the first twinkleby fanart which aaaah my heart <3#also i laugh everytime i look at it#this captures the essence of theodore so perfectly hahaha#twinkleby#theodore tag#fanart

#oh so when they do it it’s a glitch when I summon a goblet from thin air I’m using ‘black magic’ and ‘need to be killed’ @the-quasar-hero
#i for one think we should adopt the stance of reacting to any bug with labeling it 'black magic'#and calling for any character or feature involved to be killed#but maybe that's why i'm not in charge of QA lmao

okay so i didn't get far with my "recreate wuthering heights in twinkleby" project but i did get some seriously haunted screenshots at least
dorian heathcliff dissociating by the door
florence catherine wandering the moors outside, while dorian heathcliff stare forlornly through the window
#also please ignore the blonde musician in the room with proper lamps he's just chilling#also all of these names are placeholder tho i am pretty sure dorian's name is finalized lmao#twinkleby#wuthering heights#cozy game#game development#indie games#unity#i mean we SHOULD just name a bunch of characters after brontë books like#maybe i will spend the summer trying to convince everyone about these#it's swedish vacation time everyone's gone on vacation#the time for classic literature mutiny is now
