Mulan saves all of China and gets offered a spot on the Emperor's council. Po saves all of China and gets to keep eating dumplings. I know which one would make me truly happy, sorry Disney.

Moana sails across the ocean to find herself. Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas sails across the ocean to outrun a goddess of chaos. One of these is a vacation, the other is a career. Dreamworks wins.

Who did it better? Flushed Away, or the Great Mouse Detective? They both feature rodents in London, but Hugh Jackman gave a performance for the ages as Roddy St. James! Barrie Ingham playing Basil of Baker St? More like Barely English! It's gotta go to Dreamworks here!

Why are we even comparing The Lion King to Madagascar? One’s a slow “circle of life” lecture, the other has the Lion Character serving charisma, dance moves, and a full identity crisis. Another Darth Vader performance from James Earl Jones, Ben Stiller brought RANGE. DreamWorks wins this easily.

Yesterday, I passed 200 hours of playing every beginner(That is, Advanced and lower) kaizo romhack of SMW. I've finished 139 out of 327, and I've been lucky enough to find some new favorites in the second hundred hours, including Uncharted World and Roke Shell.

Here's some fruit from me playing all those beginner hacks. I don't think that I'll always need to touch on every single level, but this hack was such a grab bag of gimmicks it was hard to leave them out

In early January, I started work on a project that I'm calling my Kaizo Beginnerthon, where I'm playing through every beginner(Advanced and lower) difficulty kaizo romhack of SMW that's on SMW Central. Today, I've played for just over 101 hours and I've completed 73 out of 327.

I finished playing as much Donkey Kong: Bananza as I want to. 776/777 bananas collected. What an absolutely incredible game, I played somewhere around 39 hours and thoroughly enjoyed my time with it.

I'm very far behind, but I'm making my way through creating videos for all of the RomHack Races that I participate in. Here's a short that I just finished, It's Week 205 from August 2022, Mario Mountain by redfeatherz, an SMB2 level.

I've been putting it off for weeks, but Paper Robot finally has a preview trailer. This is meant to give people a quick look at what sort of game I'm building, in an easily sharable package. Still plenty of work to be done, but it IS getting done. A million tiny things. youtu.be/tt7ia1MX9xs

Le plume has now been submitted. I am very excited, nervous, thrilled, etc. It was a very humbling journey and I'm super grateful for all the help I've been given through it all. Fingers crossed moderation goes well. It's here for those who are interested : www.smwcentral.net?p=section&a=...

Ok well I'm very behind on my video-making projects, and Twitch Highlights have been my primary method of storing footage for me to use later. I'm now completely up to date on highlighting the previous month's worth of streams I want to keep, couldn't have made the highlights tomorrow.

Feeling kinda doomy and gloomy about a very likely loss of TikTok. Being on that platform has meant alot for me over the years, it certainly helped me find my voice as a creator.

Before and after. As you can see, after hours of work, we have achieved "left-facing" state.

A screenshot of a room in a video game showing a robot and a cat character in a plain box-shaped room with orange walls and gray floors.

The same room as the previous screenshot, but with the surfaces textured with rusted metal, grungy concrete, metal pipes, and large industrial fans in the back wall.

It was a good and fun thing last year to say "I'm going to beat these specific romhacks this year!", it pushed me to do Casio and Fly Me To The Stars. In 2025 I will beat poop jump, The Team Shell Hack, Sheffy 2, Cubes Kaizo 5, JokerShellOK, Various Dragons(🟩,🟨,🟥,🐉🪰) and Thumbshredder's dad

I'm super proud of how my streams have gone this year, this is the first time I've had an actual streaming schedule, and I've even mostly been able to follow it! I also have made YouTube partner this year, which was one of my big goals.

germdove @germdove.bsky.social · 07/12/2024

I started Fly Me To The Stars last night, got through 2 levels even though I had some technical difficulties. I was as surprised as anyone that I got the first midway. www.twitch.tv/germdove/cli... Going to play more today before the RomHack Race and after I do a short cooking stream(cheesesteaks!)

I played though Heat Wave last night. For a first romhack, will___ knocked it out of the park. The number of times I was introduced to new obstacles and said "thanks, I hate it" was off the charts, but every cursed obstacle was still fun to play with. Gave me alot of interesting ways to wait too!

I had an incredible stream yesterday, really felt in the zone at the beginning. I beat Perchance's SMB3 Mario, Pardoner Fennel from Casio and both GPW3 bowsers back to back in under 25 minutes total. www.twitch.tv/videos/23050... Just felt like sharing.
