Chrono Cross definitely has the best music of all the video games in my childhood, but I only developed the sense to appreciate it later when I became older. Instead, this FF8 song is probably my fav when I was a child.

By learning ignarics, one can deny parts of reality. Suppose someone mastered fire ignarics. They can no longer perceive any fire with their senses, nor can fire harm them. But they also forget that fire exists. Nobody can even talk about fire with them. Ignarics is virtually irreversible.

Currently working on a tactical gardening game with @crystalnyam.bsky.social, but we are unsure which theme is more interesting? DRUID: A druid's familiar tasked to tend a sanctuary garden and feed entities around DREAM: A dream spirit devoted to deliver beautiful dreams to the sleepers #indiegame
Garden of PlentyThe master is gone! The magical garden is in disarray. Weeds overgrown, leaves fall untimely, rot spreads beneath. The Garden of Plenty needs careful tending.  Left behind, the Druid's familiar is now in charge of the sanctuary. Plant the fruits, pull out the weeds, and feed the various entities around. Lest they cause catastrophe.Did you know that when you're deep in the slumber, someone is quietly shaping your rest? Reside within the Garden of Plenty, where plants bear concepts, and the sleepers come waiting. A dream spirit labors tirelessly. Spread the seeds, let it bloom, and give sleeper the concepts they need to prevent nightmares.

People who don't make games will never understand the camaraderie that game developers feel for each other. We're all on the same team. For us, celebrating studios closing is like celebrating your teammates losing a really tough game.
