Stuff I wanna put in v1.1: * Tiles should be friendlier so you're not stuck fouling off tiles waiting for one you can use * Diff sfx for hits and homers * Length of Spaghetti Time depends on # of runs you scored in the homer sequence * Full bases should be replaced with little runner dudes

#FallingBlockJam final stretch! Happy with my little bopping baseball player. Hoping to add some dang sound over the weekend.

Some progress! Starting to feel like something. Definitely didn't need to add the particles this early, but I always find that adding a little pizazz early on makes it feel more game-y and helps my motivation

For example! Zero memory of the entire Hyrule Castle segment at the end. Literally zero. Happy to be here though. Any time I get to listen to the castle theme is a good time

When I first played Twilight Princess back in 2006, I was wicked jetlagged having just returned from my first trip to Japan. So as it turns out, this means I have basically zero memory of the back half of this game. Entire dungeons are brand new to me

The look of the sages was certainly an interesting choice that I'm not sure I like, but I get the desire to abstract them away from just "Saria and friends" to something more ethereal and outside of of one particular incarnation

Lots of iconography carried over from OoT that would have been over my head had I not just played that game. Sacred Stones, medallions, etc

My biggest advice for youngsters: take pictures of the places that matter to you. Your home, your bedroom, your classrooms, the stores you frequent, etc. You'll probably have plenty of pictures of the people in your life, but the spaces change and disappear, and they're a wonder to revisit.

I've never been a fan of swimming in real life, but god damn, putting on that Zora Armor and gliding around Lake Hylia on a foggy morning almost makes me want to like swimming

I think this is because each area or subarea is connected by stretches of canyon that I assume were there so they could stream data off the disc without loading times. But it ends up making Hyrule Field feel almost cave-like, a series of rooms connected by narrow tunnels

Eric @kitasuna.bsky.social · 10/08/2026
So far, one thing that really jumps out in contrat to OoT is how Hyrule Field feels. OoT made me want to gallop around and try to find everything, even though the field was small and there wasn't really a ton to find. TP's field is obviously larger but also feels less grand or expansive somehow

Playing the Wii U HD version, for the record. My only previous time playing it was on the Wii, right after launch. I remember having fun with it but it didn't feel like it left as much of an impression at the time

In the run up to the Ocarina of Time Remake, I played OoT: Master Quest and was surprised by how well a lot of it held up! But that was a couple of weeks ago so instead I'm gonna talk about Twlight Princess, which is what I'm playing now

Finally played Crimson Shroud (3DS). Only 8-10 hours but it is stuffed with so much world building that it feels like you're reading a single chapter from a series of fantasy books that exist, inaccessible, in some pocket dimension. Would absolutely play another game in this universe.

Man, Gunvein owns so hard. Very pleased with myself for getting a 1cc on Mild, working on Intense now. It does such a good job of guiding you through how danmaku games work, I actually feel myself getting better at the genre when I'm playing it. Also the music slaps 🤘

Finally posted my snowboard-y Excitebike-y game that I made with #pico8. Decided in the closing days of development that it needed a minimap and pseudo-achievements, so no doubt I broke something, but it's going out the door anyway! Now available on the BBS and on Itch: radicalslice.itch.io/snowpeel

Early thoughts: dialing in eye distance / screen size settings takes a little doing, not sure I've fully got it yet. Teleroboxer is hard as heck. Red Alarm is somehow cooler than I remember? And Wario is immediately charming. Looking forward to many more awkward kitchen table gaming sessions

The timing of angling your board gets interesting when you're landing on an uphill slope. Wanted to include a level with lots of uphill bits so the player get the change to mess with it a little. Called it "Improbable". #pico8 #gamedev

Still working my way through the last few Playdate Season 1 games, and got to Saturday Edition. Holy hell, what a game. Story and mood really grabbed me, loved the sound design, loved how the pace and intensity ramp up towards the end. One of my faves from S1 for sure.

Made a "snow is melting, grass everywhere" level for the snowboarding game. Stoked with how ragged the grassy edges turned out. Got a dev video almost ready on all the changes I had to make to the level parser to make this work too, gonna be a code-heavy one #pico8 #gamedev #indiedev
