Would you rather be in control of a water fountain display or stand behind a waterfall you can't control?

I'm getting "anime girl meets O2" vibes, Maichi. She's cute 🥰

Got one of every minion type in storage that I currently have access to, or at least I think I do ^^ (Still need to strengthen the spider - everyone else is max level) #Necromerger

Hey everyone. Not looking forward to trying to sleep tonight when it's 23°C warm outside. Expecting rain overnight and a dramatic drop in temperatures tomorrow. 🌧️💤 Meanwhile, I'm working on another #QuestMaster dungeon called Choice Rush. 😈 Go fast or die trying... this one's evil.

Chouce Rush: Be quick and be bold. Tardiness will cost you.

Morning. 🙂‍↔️ Do not like the forecast of weather whiplash one bit. 🚫 (Temperatures in °C because that's how I roll. I don't care if the rest of my country uses °F.)

Hey Eri 🙂 I honestly didn't know that Procreate could help with animations. Here I am, using it purely to make silly finger doodles like this one.

I believe in the power of simple doodles. Do you?

JayBee, it looks like I'm in for a BIG change as far as weather goes. Again. 🥵🥶

My weather's going from too hot to too cold...

Hii Sora :3 Clear and cold this morning, exactly as I expected it to be. Perfect weather for starting a road trip?

Anyone know how many aircraft accidents have resulted in the vehicle being upside down, like this one from Toronto Pearson Airport?

Aircraft upside down at the airport after crashing on landing in snowy conditions.

Hallelujah for finally cooler weather. I can turn the climate control system off entirely for once!

Much more comfortable temperatures starting today 😁

Been play-testing this #QuestMaster dungeon of evilness 😈 called "Alcatraz Plus: Prison Portal Escape". Already found and fixed quite a few bugs. You can now progress at least 1/3 of the way through the triply-reentrant puzzle on B5 for certain (the exit is on 1F, while the entrance is on B9).

Alcatraz Plus: Prison Portal Escape

Make a daring escape from jail, with extra security from guards and portals.

Uses "Lost Planet Alcatraz" from Bomberman 64 as the main music.

Added some more stuff. 😁 Of these, only Secret of Mana is known to be a bit finicky, requiring me to adjust graphics settings to get it to work.

For you, @numberers.bsky.social - everything I have installed within the Crossover environment on macOS. As far as I can tell, all of it works (including the new games I bought on Steam that are Windows-only)! 😁

I am so close to being able to summon an Archdemon... all I need is to make (or buy) one more Level 1 portal, but of course I am short on Death Runes. With that, I can merge up to a 2nd level 5 portal, and merging those results in an Archdemon!

Good morning. Now I'm well and truly in for unsettled weather... there's a good reason I was placed in the 15% of the country in flash flood (as opposed to the 85% in flash drought). ⛈️

Showers and thunderstorms are expected for today and, with at least a 45% chance, the next 8 days as well.

Ended today with more demons than I am able to store. #NecroMerger

Hi Sora! Happy Monday. Alas, it looks like today is the only nice day within the next ten.

Sun, increasing clouds, rain chances x8. Bleh weather forecast.

I'm overdue for one of these myself! Happy #SkycleSunday! Tags are in the thread.

All's well here, just waiting for the inevitable thunderstorms now... which I think just arrived, I hear thunder!

Lightning detected 13 km to the north. 4 other flashes in a 40 km radius.

Quick #YuGiOh question: What is Predaplant Bal Teah, a level 4 Synchro monster, doing in an archetype almost entirely composed of Fusion Monsters in the Extra Deck? It seems very out of place, on top of having a weird sounding name 😂

You just reminded me of Boxxle, of all things.

I really had no business winning this #YuGiOhMasterDuel duel. Yet I somehow prevailed anyway! Surprise! (This one's especially for you, @tinypaint.bsky.social)

Hey Sora! Penguins are almost exclusively in the Southern Hemisphere. The sole exception is the Galapagos penguin 🐧 Also, did you know that aphids give live birth?

Is that Jaxon I see? I hope you're aware that this costume resembles Evil Eagle from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening...

It is finally done... #QuestMaster Fear Factory B2 has been fleshed out and B3 populated. Last two dungeon maps below. Notice the large combats in both floors. You have to complete either the one on B2 or one of the two side areas in B3, then the central area in B3, to win. Good luck! 🍀

Time for another #QuestMaster Fear Factory update... here's the maps so far. Basement level 2 is still WIP. Floors 1 and 2, along with Basement 1, are essentially done. As you can see, there's lava EVERYWHERE. It's almost as if someone put a volcano inside the thundering tower for extra fear!

These are my four picks for you, Atiana.

Ending my gaming day with a cage nearly full of demons in #NecroMerger.

The cage in NecroMerger with 13 slots unlocked, 9 occupied by level 3 demons, a level 2 demon, a level 1 demon, and 2 empty slots.

Just started a new #QuestMaster dungeon: Quest Master Fear Factory. "Only through facing your fears will you prevail in here. Adventurers beware!" Fittingly, it uses the Fear Factory music from Donkey Kong Country. The first room is deliberately designed for maximum intimidation factor 😱
