Sucks that the new Glacium sigil doesn't affect the Rhino Heirloom horns correctly. I really had a vision here. 😔 #Warframe

The social media content treadmill kind of killed all desire I had to take screenshots in games anymore, but the latest #NoMansSky expedition compelled to take at least a few. #virtualphotography

You guys have GOT to stop building bases on top of objective resource deposits. There were multiple in this expedition and it makes doing it take so much longer. #NoMansSky

While searching for my camera battery charger, I found an external hard drive I thought was long gone. There's clips and screenshots on it from my PS4 dating back to at least 2018. I'm so excited to dig through it. I haven't found the charger.

A little late but I'm here. I'll still probably be a bit late playing it though. I'll have to dodge spoilers for a bit. 🥲

Figured I should probably replay Control before Resonant comes out, especially since I'll probably need to buy time to see how it runs on Linux. I realized in the intro that Control sits in the middle of a venn diagram of Allegory of the cave and House of Leaves. I should catch up on my reading. 😰

Alright fine I'll come back 🙄

Saw the partial eclipse earlier, but my phone decided it saw something else. Through my binoculars the area that was covered was still quite visible, and really made the moon look more like a 3D object rather than a just a flat circle. 😂

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

So why don't nail polishes come with brushes that are long enough? Soon it won't even be able to reach it despite there being plenty left.

Okay lmao keep your secrets

With the whole TCG craze, I thought I'd check through market value of some cards I've had for a long time. A shame that TCGPlayer only let's you sell from the US 'cause uh...

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

I took a break from doing #pixelart because of computer stuff, but now I'm back and currently 'studying' Terraria sprites. Everything I have to say about them was too long even for Ko-fi, so if you want to read more about it you can check my Tumblr post here: www.tumblr.com/doozclops/82...

I finally got a chance to play the original .hack games after initially playing the G.U. ones as a kid. They really are the perfect niche for me, the concept of something that seems like nothing more than a game urban legend being real.

First book I've bought in years. Feels like required reading for me at this point.

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

Can't say I'm the biggest fan of Amazon trying to recommend its own products on unrelated ones. I was looking at a USB C to Micro B adapter (to use different cables with my old external HDDs) and they think a C to A is equivalent.

Some more Stardew Valley #pixelart redesigns. Did you know that aquamarine and emerald are both varieties of beryl? Read more about it on my #kofi: ko-fi.com/i/IR7U521L4NR

I've been back in #FFXIV for a bit, so naturally I wanted to catch up on duoing old EX/Savage stuff. 😸

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 22/06/2026

Me again, back with some more #pixelart redesigns of Stardew Valley sprites. This time I did the diamond. I think it turned out good. You can read more about it on my #kofi: ko-fi.com/i/IV6F121GYT5

While discussing the different #pixelart gem in Stardew Valley, a friend lamented the amethyst design. Specifically the fact that it's so round, not very shiny looking, and doesn't really read as an amethyst. You can read more about this one on my Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/i/IY8X52055QZ

Got some better shots later on. 😁

Spotted a cedar waxwing today. A really rare bird usually only seen while migrating back north where I used to live, but it would appear they just live here most of the time. And the tree they were hanging out in grow berries. 😸

Another REALLY old screenshot from #FFXIV in my external hard drive. The creation date says December 2014. ARR days.

Found this on an external hard drive. It kind of goes hard tbh. #DDDA

Working on switching over to Linux reminds me of moving and I'm still recovering from doing that last year tbh.

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

This time I set out to make some #pixelart with a more unique shape, and also attempt to make a pearl. You can read more about it on my Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/i/IV2B51ZWOMN

#nowplaying or whatever. Been meaning to play it again after all these years.

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 21/05/2026

Why do people do this? They were in the mission from the start and just ran around in circles. Just log off at that point. #Warframe

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 18/05/2026

Back again with more #StardewValley #pixelart. One thing that always gnawed at me was the original ruby sprite. While it does read as what it is, the lighting always felt off to me. So I thought it would be good practice to redesign it. Left is the original, right is mine.

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 17/05/2026

I remember back in 2015 when Fallout 4 was $69.99, I was surprised by the jump in price for AAA games. Now, just over 10 years later, things are almost $30 more. And for what? Are they actually worth the extra $30?

010

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 17/05/2026

Apparently the original image is AI, which I'm not about, but are we REALLY flagging posts that are intending to fight against transphobia as "intolerance"? Really???

I was scrolling for a while, looking for something to use as a reference photo and DuckDuckGo decided to just give up. 🙄

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 11/05/2026

To practice #pixelart, I tried my hand at making some sprites in the style of #StardewValley. You can read more about it on my Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/i/IN4N01YZ6NI

3 rings in a pixel art style, mimicking the style of Stardew Valley. A golden-banded ring featuring a large, brilliant diamond-shaped gem that emits a soft yellow glow around its edges; a dark grey band topped with two symmetrical, curved horns and the left side is a deep crimson red, while the right side is a dark teal-green with a lime highlight; a copper-colored band holding a multi-colored, horizontal oval gemstone that gradients through the colors of the rainbow. In the bottom right corner, the artist's watermark "DOOZCLOPS" is written in black, blocky pixel lettering.

A goose landed on my roof yesterday. I think we were both surprised.

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 04/05/2026

Nevermind, I'm way too under-qualified for something like that. Currently revisiting third-party controllers.

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 26/04/2026

Some of the "get x amount of kills with y" achievements in Skull Horde take so astronomically long to get because for some reason rot and plague kills just don't work the same as burns. I really don't want to spend 10 hours getting one basic achievement.

010

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 20/04/2026

With the DDoSing and the fact that I did in fact buy the game, I didn't follow up on this. Anyway, I beat it. 😅 Now to finish getting all the achievements.

010

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

I tried out the demo for #SkullHorde and it seems pretty good. Nice art style, music, and tutorials that explain things in a way that's actually informative but not overburdening you with information. Gameplay loop is solid too. I'll definitely get it some point in the near future.

dooz @doozclops.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

In #Warframe, my character and my duo's character are named MeatSnacks and FruitBites, respectively. We have a clan that's currently just the two of us, so I thought I'd do my best to make a clan emblem for it (minus the background of course):

Two pixel art food items, a steak and a strawberry, are displayed against a pale mint-green background. The style uses thick black outlines and vibrant, shaded colors. The steak is a thick, T-bone style cut of meat. It features a rich red center with lighter pink highlights, surrounded by a ring of cream-colored fat and a dark brown outer crust. The strawberry is rendered in various shades of red and pink to show depth, speckled with yellow seeds. A small, dark green leafy stem sits at the top.

I've been consumed by #Warframe for the past nearly 2 months. Wake up, play Warframe, go to bed. 💀

A high-angle screenshot from the video game Warframe.

The player character, a biomechanical humanoid figure wearing a white helmet with rabbit ears stands in front of a large, metallic door in a dark, teal-lit industrial environment. At the top of the screen, a user interface element reads "Voting on Mission... Armatus (Deimos)" and a mission objective on the left side says "Enter the Laboratories." Floating white text in the center of the frame reads "Waiting for other players..." near a glowing yellow mission waypoint icon. The scene is characterized by metallic textures, glowing cyan accents on the character's armor, and a gritty, sci-fi aesthetic.
