This honestly surprises me because I always considered perseverance my primary. But after reading the descriptions, kindness/perseverance definitely makes sense for me. 💜💚 And reading that tagline (“No matter how many times I got hurt, I never let that make me cruel.”) resonates with me so much.

An image of my results from the SOUL Virtues Extractor. My main SOUL trait is Kindness (81%) with a secondary of Perseverance (71%). Then it goes Bravery (45%), Integrity (39%), Determination (35%), Patience (35%), and Justice (33%). The tagline for Kindness reads “GREEN SOUL: No matter how many times I got hurt, I never let that make me cruel.”

Hey guys! Due to the trend of "what's your undertale soul color" reels I've seen recently, I decided to make something hopefully more accurate and fun than the other tests out there. I wanted it to be very Undertale themed and to have a bunch of Easter eggs. Try it at undertale.jadenthejaded.uk!

zirkkun @ I LOVE TV RELEASE!! @zirkkun.bsky.social · 21/06/2026

#ILoveTV -- the Totally Normal #deltarune dating sim featuring Mr. "Ant" Tenna... and a couple of other guys, too, I guess. After about a year of development, THE GAME IS FINALLY RELEASED! Just in time before Chapter 5 releases ^D 📺 itchio and GameJolt links are below!! 💗

A screencap from the fangame I Love TV! Tenna stands off to the right with his usual red, yellow, white, and black attire while holding a card and smiling. The top stat bars read, "Tenna" and FP/LP, with the bottom HP bar being labeled "Vess." The board reads, "Come here often?" with the answers "Yes," "No," "Maybe," "Where are we?" There are 3 buttons reading "Talk," "Act," and "Item." The textbox reads, "Try TALKing or ACTing your way out of the situation."

A screencap from the fangame I Love TV! Tenna stands within a poorly-constructed shack wearing a pink, white, and blue suit. The top of the shack reads, "Definitely not Mr. "Ant" Tenna's Shop!!" The textbox reads, "This is certainly NOT Mr. "Ant" Tenna. The options are "Buy," "Sell," "Talk," and "Done."

A screencap from the fangame, I Love TV! Both Tenna and a Pippins stand side-by-side in a grey environment with a CRT overlay. Tenna looks distraught while the Pippins seems indifferent. Tenna says, "Ever since they brought that laptop home, it's been so congested around here."

A screencap from the fangame I Love TV! Tenna stands at the center in his normal attire with a park-like background painted poorly behind him. The top stat bars read, "Tenna" and FP/LP, with the bottom HP bar being labeled "Vess." There are 3 buttons reading "Talk," "Act," and "Item." The textbox reads, "You're on a date now."

finally got a copy of the deltarune ch 3+4 piano score and some highlights

There’s a note on this measure that says “If you can play this, go for it! Or have Mike play it with you.”

Snippet of the sheet music for “Sound Check” that includes Susie’s drum solo. The note below the drum solo simply reads “Susie no”

Snippet of the first measure for “C”. The tempo indication is “Mom’s home… = 119” There’s also a note within the first measure that reads “breath?”

A picture of the beginning of the piano sheet music for “The place where it rained”. The first line has no notes and simply says “it smells nice… after the rain”.

The chill otter is laying down next to a phone with rainbow beams fanning out of it. They look at the phone and see it says June 1st, and after a brief contemplation, they snuggle up under a progress pride blanket, phone plugged in farther away. It reads “It’s ok if you are tired.

Promotional art for the Undertale fangame Act to Flirt. A pair of hands are holding a pink heart, which contains the Undertale characters Sans, Undyne, Papyrus, Muffet, Mettaton, and Toriel. Looming in the background are the mystery man on the left and the Deltarune character Kris on the right.

It reads: Act to Flirt: an undertale dating sim by zirkkun. SPECIAL 6TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION!

Speaking of my recently-shown side-project, a little gameplay! While the game is largely a VN, it also has dice mechanics! Here we see a "climbing" challenge: the player must succeed at three consecutive rolls to "climb" to the top. A failure drops them to the bottom #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGame

It makes me so unbelievably sad that the new Professor Layton game has been created using generative AI tools. I would have much rather allowed the series to rest alongside the DS era. I am not interested in the new game knowing Level-5 relies so heavily on generative AI for gamedev.
