Probably my last repost of it. Got this trash on my phone now, even though the buttons are barely aligned with anything :T (still so proud of it 💚)

The Great One's Feast, a falling blocks game about feeding a noodle monster. It's being played in landscape view on an android phone.

Everything i wanted to put in it is there (after tiny scope reductions - gonna stick by them!). Itch page is pretty much all prepared. I'll look at it with fresh eyes tomorrow and submit if i don't change my mind 💚

The Great One's Feast, one of the game's introductory text walls.
"Nation's cooks gather together to feed it before it takes matters into its own tentacles. The Great One's Feast begins now."

Seeing this one again, this time in much better light c:

Mural of piper leading a horde of frogs away, painted by Andrzej Poprostu.
It's in four segments: Two tall columns of green, hypnotized frogs on far left and right sides; centerpiece of a man playing his pipe while looking directly at the viewer; yellow silhouette of man leading frogs away on black background at the center top side

Breaking news! It's not actually breaking news - just a level-up screen. Don't mind how the unlocked thingy is aligned, i'm using twemoji as placeholders (and i kinda like their look, it's so very likely i won't replace them at all). #FallingBlockJam

The Great One's Feast level up screen made to look like generic breaking news image announcing the arrival of bacon (illustrated with twemoji bacon strip).
Instead of "breaking news" it says "new recipe!" and the bottom text says "Bacon! It's like human sacrifice, but it's pigs!"

Tried it once to get rid of leftover materials. Too small though - it's a pencil case at best (cat for scale):

Aaand also finally finished HL Alyx. Had to reinstall it three times during the last three chapters because it just didn't want to run for some dumb reason D: So glad i managed to do that before my soft deadline for it ._.

Needed something to fidget, replayed first chapter of DQB2 through its demo on Switch. And i wanted to see what i can build with limited blocks in that chapter. I think it went well :T

That's how i learned that it's an option. Now i wonder if it's EA's or Valve's fault, that the dropdown is covered by another element on EA's page lol

"Electronic Arts" on Steam. Gear is clicked and a dropdown with "Ignore this creator" and "Report this creator" should be visible, but it's covered by purple navigation bar.

Dumb things about SteamOS and Steam Controller: 1) Using it as mouse in desktop mode requires Steam to be running, it's not a system-wide driver or anything 2) Device name is set per steam account, so when you switch users, you lose this beauty:

I wish it wasn't buried under all this "missing alt text that would make searching for it possible". (thankfully, someone else added it in a quote) (love everyone posting their comics with alt text, you're great and your effort is appreciated 💖)

Search results for "i drew a picture", it's a comic by Haus of Decline

Search results for "the exact thing i was looking for", it's a repost of a DekoNSFW comic that added alt text for it

Ah. Well, it did not. Still, had a lot of fun with the demo up to this point c: That's all i see after pressing "continue". The main menu is still fine.

Just added @duckaislop.bsky.social as a custom search in waterfox, just so i can quickly look up a steam game by title. Gonna make things just a bit easier. Because of course i wasted disk space on another demo of a slopjob with no disclosure :c

In case it gets hot again and turning the PC on becomes undesirable - finally got this gem on Switch too. It's still so damn cheap and so fun to play 💖

I went into this game after finishing DQB2, thinking it's gonna be more clunky and less polished. And it kinda was, but on the other hand i kinda enjoy the freedom it gives early on. I'm building way more in its first chapter than i did on first chapter of DQB2 :o

Fortified Cantlin build in progress, in the first chapter of Dragon Quest Builders.
