Besides being peely and itchy the worst part is i basically can't have my leg in a comfortable position bc i don't want to rub it. Can't put my leg up, or my knee on anything, or rest my calf on something Who knew it would be like this (not me)

JayMFernandes @jaymfernandes.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Alright well i might have gone crazy buying a bunch of kingdom hearts merch while I've been here but it's so hard to find this stuff in Australia for cheap 😭

Was it worth getting a Bahamut took 12 hours of tattooing over 2 days, including in my knee ditch and down to my ankle. I think so. Did it hurt? Yes 😭 (Another awesome tattoo from Kris at Amity Tattoo in San Diego)

Day 2 in San Diego, Got a burrito, ate fish tacos, and got half a tattoo. Very nice indeed

JayMFernandes @jaymfernandes.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Definitely! Pretty sure i have a few casual days (where I'm not getting tattooed lol)

All right well now that I solved a really stupid issue: This is your reminder that you should build shipping builds often to catch dumb issues (like not updating references to maps you're not using anymore, corrupted models, and assets not being included in packages)

Damn, sorry to hear but happy to see an example of a studio handling it well for team members ❤️

Yup it's the classic choice of "he's hot but I'm afraid to break his bones" and a "he's hot and I'm afraid he'll break my bones" that we have on our hands here. Something something two birds with one bone, er, stone

I mean Kass is way hotter AND a musician but maybe I'm just biased 😂

I'm personally on the fence still and there's some things i like and some things I'm not a huge fan of. (I'm mostly mad that this style has been co-opted by uncreative nonsense so people immediately dismiss the hard work in sure this game took). (Also i learned by lesson when i 'hated' wind waker)

JayMFernandes @jaymfernandes.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

This is my pov right now. My kids have played many of the originals but it's sometimes hard for them to get past the controls (n64 especially) and the look when they are used to modern games. The kids yearn for dungeons! My son literally said "i want i play this bc it's Switch controls"

By the time you get to that cool-looking indie game that you're waiting to go on sale, the studio will have closed

JayMFernandes @jaymfernandes.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

It should be fine! It's mostly that Street doing some more inspecting after finding this leak it looks like i should fix some other things. A few days work and it'll be ready to camp in again (i hope)

Sigh, looks like I'll need to reseal the roof joints. That's gonna take time 💀

Casual note that @brunodias.dev who was one of the localizers on this game talks at length about this sort of thing here azhdarchid.com/you-must-fre... Also I think he's looking for work if you wanna say hire him to Narrative for you

Not really a response to a Narrascope talk so much as the talk is an alarm letting me know it's time to have this conversation again.

It's an old viscount from the 70s! I had redone the inside last year but appears i didn't seal some things last time. For now just filling with marine gap filler since it's a cheap thing heh. Went inside to prep and noticed a huge damage area and ripped it all out T_T Rest looks alright though heh
