iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

trying to find the gaming magazine she edited, Sorcerer's Apprentice. there's one issue on archive dot org but there's fifteen more before it I'd love to see

000

Liz Danforth's work is present in so much stuff I love. several iconic M:TG illustrations including Zur's Weirding and one of the Hymns to Tourach, plus art for other ccgs and game systems... and I recently found out she contributed scenarios to Wasteland, one of my favourite games for DOS

i also need to sell various cards and records or else i am going to die rofl

000

i need to drop some of my hobbies and then get back into them lately with my sensitivity and indulgence of creativity turned back on

100

i've been a phillistine about various things, sneering is way too easy comparing to thinking

100

I actually can't play any game which activates the graphics card at all or the laptop melts down so many recent crawlers and puzzles I wanna play but they often use unity or what have you. cannot afford to replace the fan dosbox here we come. it's time to listen to people say "hast thou" again

000

no i'll probably never learn the technical term for anything

000

i love when games are laid out from a side-on platformer viewpoint but they're actually top-down four/eight directional movement games, messed-up perspective is really great like ultima IV where you can see the tops of tables but characters are drawn in portrait, it's good

replacing things with AI: no; no; absolutely not and no replacing the uk press with AI: willing to give a trial run

wall of voodoo "ring of fire" showing up on random play, me trying not to think of a certain scene from a certain movie and failing

000

kinda, but it's more about getting oppressed by people who run systems we contribute to, like the US building concentration camps or the UK government trying to destroy benefits it's cruel that so many people got fired of course!

sorry to be bitter but it's kinda hard not to be lol

i've always been a "boycott as much as possible, opt out as much as possible" kinda person and have been called irresponsible and useless for my whole life teehee how is being responsible and useful working out for everyone

sports betting for rain delay streams recurring shouty men overseeing the rolling of the covers becoming superstars to a new more cryptic crowd

streaming some disconnected talking sounds and the visual of a billowing rain cover i'd never stream sport but sport denied is crucial viewing

im silly and immature and i don't want access to work i want access to a magical cape

000

you could still get bopped by Memory's Journey or whatever >:3

000

I love this ridiculous card and would like to request an ability something like this: Tenured (This card can't be exiled.) so you could have a random tenured ouphe in yr graveyard so that you didn't auto die to a tormod's crypt

this used to be called "the tide pod challenge" or so i hear

000

i got tenacious energy (taking the washing out of the machine the same day i put it in)

cat stared at me and snarled cos i said boing when he jumped out of a box

huh? hit what out of the park? what park? what are you talking about?

navry nightsnout @cewcu.bsky.social · 29/06/2025

i think i will, ummm, try gaming again in winter, when my laptop might not turn itself off for fifteen minutes in protest of its screaming red hot gpu

000

navry nightsnout @cewcu.bsky.social · 29/06/2025

making the snow fall in terra nil is so lovely :3 bonus: you can watch yr resources fill up from all the transformation it performs, and then restart the level cos you made the entire landscape unworkable \o/

navry nightsnout @cewcu.bsky.social · 28/06/2025

playtesting my card game with stickers stuck to Mirrodin era basic mountains, it rules. the rules set is too cool and you don't need anywhere near sixty cards to play it. the game is good and shares basically nothing with M:TG beyond things like mill, discard piles, resource points etc

navry nightsnout @cewcu.bsky.social · 28/06/2025

loving Terra Nil! reading reviews which describe its various stages being in conflict but have been viewing the process as "promote biodiversity, then do as little damage as possible as you leave", so its final layer becomes a deliberate puzzle, satisfying when it works out as you'd hoped

meanwhile, cube is good, local commander variants where each player states what they don't wanna see and you draw up a vibes banlist are good, etc. also working on solo variants no-one else will see is a fun if lonely usage of the cards you already own

000

hopefully the licenses will just get too expensive and they'll find a different gimmick? lol i honestly can't wait for the multiverse to stop being a thing

100

i'm sure there's already people playing casual magic and deliberately omitting the cards from outside properties but I think fandom is going to sustain UB for a long time - people willing to travel to major cons and drop serious money on these cards are just more visible than local playgroups

trying to stoke up any emotion at all lately, just feeling like zombie lately as in entire life but im more conscious of it

listening to PIL trying to imagine ever seeing a single unit of money again

guys hanging around a practise room TCG

"It is now turn 1 - your turn to play.
Your various resources have been reset to zero.

Your handsize is currently 6; you draw 6 cards.

These are the cards you draw:
- headadjuster
- alesis owner
- bassline crusher
- a possessed comic
- headadjuster
- guitar leaning on amp

020

yeah! its strange how fragile the connection to yr own work can be

i always think about my music, "would I like this if someone else had made it? or would my patience immediately run out" and i shouldn't do that lol that way lies nothing but unhappiness

trying to play online tabletop, being incredibly panicky and anxious for the first twenty minutes and then switching over to yapping constantly with an increasingly incoherent voice until i'm just giggling at everything i can't do it hee i was built to have zero contact with anyone

my huge text rpg about a subconscious world linking the consciousness of mutant artists somehow became a single player card game

I've been bedridden for the last 6 months, unable to work as I try to get a surgeon and insurance lined up for my operation to let me work again. If you could send a couple dollars, it'd really help. Time isn't on my side here, and waiting is very expensive. ko-fi.com/fooneturing

Went ahead and made a starter pack of Iranian/Persian artists I know who deserve all the love and support now more than ever. Let me know if I missed anyone and I’ll add them go.bsky.app/LHbyaKpv

i get the feeling that content creators make a lot from it and everyone else is getting fucking rinsed. i hope people aren't fucking their health up for the experience and i hope they get some good games in and then make sure to never repeat the big convention warehouse experience

000

i've been fascinated with the game for literal decades and hearing about all the people getting heatstroke has me designing solo variants

fandom being a series of free advertising communities is fine, if grim - the people involved look happy. i hope it is actually making them happy! these photos of people queueing in las vegas to buy scalper priced final fantasy magic cards seem like torture to me

Parasite becomes aggressive. Sure all the musicians looking at our £0.0003 Spotify payouts for our work are delighted this is what our fans’ money went towards instead, and the fans equally pleased. Artists are always very in favour of war, traditionally.
