Thanks for playing! And thanks for telling me about the controls - apologies! I ultimately mapped controller jump to shoulder buttons (4 & 6 ), but the up arrow key not jumping? Oh no! I found the issue with the latter soon after reading that. I'll build and upload a version 1.002 with it fixed.

I made a parody game based on the work reposted. and @mellymellouange.bsky.social's characters. It's a platformer called "Bubbles are Fun" in the link here: drive.google.com/file/d/19RdX... This executable should work for Windows and Linux.
A screen with the title "Bubbles are fun" over a sky backgroundAn option menu over a grassy horizon.
A difficulty setting is described by a fairy.Bubbles floating around a dark cloudy area.

That reminds me of the premise for this game: store.steampowered.com/app/514340/A... And it's announced remaster: store.steampowered.com/app/4505100/... (The only game I've seen do something similar to Touhou 1's take on "Breakout" games)

Aliens Go Home Run on Steam
A combination of Breakout, Shoot Em Up, and Baseball, Aliens Go Home Run puts you in the shoes of a young baseball player versus a horde of invading aliens. Play ball!

Yeah! At minimum, even in uncertainty, optimism keeps one facilitating good outcomes and become more knowledgable on outcomes as they keep facilitating steps towards it. It's often called naive, but the majority of the time, it it's quite the opposite IMHO. And even when it is, who does it hurt?

Whim Widget @whimwidget.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
Seeing when and why things can fail (not just 'that' they failed) means you have more avenues to see and discern how to facilitate things working, and observe and accurately predict by intent and context. Let's have a realistic hope for one another! (5/5)

Whim Widget @whimwidget.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
Being wisely realistic requires eliminating mystery and chance - discerning context - which can't be done by tallying observed experiences alone. It takes an intimate understanding of a matter, not just mere incidents, or judgement will be generalised and brash. (4/5)

Whim Widget @whimwidget.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
Having doubts and questions is fine. Keep solving questions so you can act in more certainty, but it's dangerous to dismiss others based on incomplete uncertainty or proxy. (3/5)

Whim Widget @whimwidget.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
Pessimism has expectations of a negative outcome from a mysterious chance. If arrogant, it's dismissive and sometimes calls itself, "being realistic" when it's still mere chance, or can be based on a shallow sample of 'known experience', rather than 'discernment of contexts'. (2/5)

Whim Widget @whimwidget.bsky.social · 31/07/2026
Optimism has expectations of a positive outcome on a mysterious chance. Can sometimes be naive, but isn't inherently naive. However, it's far better to have a hope that's certain, from a chance given context. (1/5)

Funnily enough, the Diamond&Pearl games have fancy clothes too. They're provided by the player's mother (who's possibly the toughest opponent in Masters Contests) for contests. Fantina appears in the Masters Contests too as...one of the easiest there. Wearing fancy clothes with Fantina is canon!

Such may have never made such mistakes themselves, yet can still empathise with them. They're more equipped to facilitate against (and correct) such mistakes 'because' they can empathise with them. One can have an arrogant peer who would only lament, judge and confine them to the mistake. (2/2)

Whim Widget @whimwidget.bsky.social · 07/04/2026
Sudden analogy! One can have a good teacher, who can empathise with student's mistakes, yet can clearly tell them how they're wrong, where the misinterpretation lay, and can guide them on avoiding those mistakes. Or discern bad intentions and challenge/put their foot down on them. (1/2)

Apparently I forgot to upload this a long time ago, so here you go Patreon Commission for Whim Widget. Anne Rishta from Kiki Kaikai. I had a lot of choices with this one, so decided to combine them. Lore wise I don't think it makes sense but still.

I feel like that's the correct answer. 🤣 ...I'm tempted to rewatch this series. ...I probably should. It was funny, I loved the animation, and I don't think I ever finished watching it. I got distracted years ago and had it on my backlog to finish.

For anything, for anytime: Indignation overextends ironically only begetting more indignation for opposite extremes Then, attempts to discern context and find solutions get oppressed by BOTH extremes Please avoid being brash; accentuating such cycles Let's listen to each other, not shallow labels

So true~ Me, I consider anything that's non-obligatory work as rest. Since I'd spend the time not resting, wishing I'd be doing x otherwise. Sometimes, I feel like: - drawing something outside my projects. - messing with code for RPGMaker translations. ...Occasionally I actually play games.

To...all sorts of other reasons people can be just plain bitter, and fail to reciprocate joy. (These are extremes, but still...) Thankfully, being able to see through it makes it less horrible to deal with accordingly... But it's still horrible to encounter, both in regards to others, and oneself.

(Ranging from...) to people: -who excuse and/or fail to reasonably moderate some obsessions (sometimes stuck unable to), to the point of becoming thought saturating addictions that they superimpose on others to fulfil. Whose indignance regarding such, also leads to unashamedly vulgar tones.

Whim Widget @whimwidget.bsky.social · 25/11/2025
Ranging from: - expecting wizardry from people making creative works, not realising involved are thoughts, effort, time, attempts and wrangling one's unique personal workflow and motivation. A lack of realising people are people, and not a spontaneous series of actions.

Take as much time as you need step by step - even resting/recovering. ^.^ The more you pressure and guilt yourself, the harder and more overwhelming it'll be to do anything. Even if it's just one, can't wait for the next fun project. What will it be? ^,^
