Hi, I'm a perfectly average person, here mostly to lurk and boost art. Frogs and foxes appreciated. I may put out some #tech / #programming -related or #game / #interactivefiction / #literature appreciation posts / microreviews. I wish I find time to catch up to modern spellcasting and learn that #rust soon.

Finally played Emily is Away Too (haven't played the first one) #gaming

I liked the mixed UI and in-browser bits, pretty cool approach. I liked how it seems to want to expose the player's tendency to just "complete" the in-game dates (like many people do also irl...), and through that teach something about (at least in-game) honesty and integrity.

The characters and their small stories are written okay, what falls flat for me is their relationship with the player character. Playing the necessarily faceless and genderless (although treated like expected in a heteronormative setting) PC, we don't have much time to start caring for NPCs before being primed for romance. Feels like being a weirdly caring stranger rather than an honest friend, therefore pushed to gamify the relationships as there is little to justify caring more.

I've just noticed a couple of days ago I've replied with a gay meme to another meme and that was a different person than I thought I'm sending it to (not in audience for gay memes), how do I salvage the situation? XD

The feeling when you go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and cannot help grinning to the girl in the mirror

Mood: there's nothing more scary than managing my corporally -attached identity. The whole idea of having a persistent, universal, supposedly largely immutable, socially broadcasted interfacing surface is crazy and goose bumps inducing. Ephemeral, flexible, and randomly generated identities FTW

Not very far into it, but I really enjoy CrossCode so far, both aesthetics- and gameplay-wise
