if you've had a shitty week, here's the fantastic news you needed:

solar is SO efficient now that nothing else really comes close. Solar farms like this- under which other countries plant crops that thrive in the controlled bright shade- are the easy future.

this makes me sleep okay at night 😌

Today’s read: something by RPI colleague, Nick Mizer.

The unseen history of Myst | VGHF Library Highlights YouTube video by The Video Game History Foundation

The creators of Myst series (@cyan.com) saved hundreds of video tapes from the making of their iconic adventure game franchose.

We helped preserve them. Here's what we found.

I honestly love the era of games when they didn't even try with names they were just like "Baseball"

3 A game that is underrated

IT'S TIME TO GET ON MY SOAPBOX AGAIN

Starfox Adventures. Yes, it should've stayed Dinosaur Planet and the story suffered as a result. It's still a genuinely good Zelda-like dungeon game imo with some really great art, music, and puzzle design.

a pixel art illustration of a woman in a red dress Alt: Edelgard von Hresvelg from Fire Emble Three Houses. She's wearing her red timeskip armor, with decorative gold buttons down the front and decorative epaulettes on the shoulders. She's also wearing her horned, golden, timeskip crown. There's a wind blowing from left to right, causing a waver in her long white strands of hair, in the red cape behind her, and in the small details of her armor such as the epaulettes.

2 Your Favorite Character

Edelgard von Hresvelg from FE Three Houses
Controversial, but I like how the game didn't shy away from that. She sees what's wrong in the world and steps up to change it, by any means necessary. I would need a full thread to describe how I see her flaws yet still love her.

a group of cartoon characters are standing in front of the player select screen Alt: Diddy Kong Racing player select screen. Starting on the top left going left to right: a crocodile named Krunch, a small monkey named Diddy, an overalls wearing rooster named Drumstick, a badger named Bumper, Banjo the bear from Banjo-Kazooie, Conker from Conker's Twelve Tails, Titup the turtle from Banjo-Kazooie, an anthropomorphic clock named TT, a tiny mouse named Pipsy, and a tiger in a blue hat named Timber.

1. Very first video game

Diddy Kong Racing! It was the OG racing adventure game (for me at least) which a pretty cool overworld and of course banger music. I came in last every time I played but still played it anyway.

A settings screen with the "Skip" tab selected. There are four options under this tab which can each be set to on or off: "skip unseen text", "skip transitions", "keep skip post-choice", and "keep skip post-battle".

A settings screen for a video game. The "Battle" tab is selected, with a handful of sliders under it. There is a slider for "Base Battle Speed", "Notification Speed", "Flavor Text Speed", and "Enemy AI Speed". Under that, there is an on off buttons for "Skip Battle Animations".

Some more settings I've been working on.

The "off" option should be selected for most of them, still working on getting that to show.

In my games all the characters drink hot chocolate and soda. XD

This took so much longer than I thought it was going to, but I love how it turned out.

Concept art for the character Esyglia. In the top left is the title "Esyglia, the Cheerful Moon" written in a handwriting font. On the left part of the page is a sketch of Esyglia, she has her left arm resting on a table and her chin is resting on her right hand. She is wearing a puffy cardigan and an amulet. She's smiling, with the words "hehe" written next to her face. She has a short bob haircut and two leaves in her hair near the back of her head. She also has a small hair antennae sticking out of her head. On the right is a color picture, she has yellow skin, slightly darker yellow clothing/hair, and orange eyes. The leaves on her head are green and her medallion is orange. In this picture, she's standing with her hands clasped in front of her. Instead of legs, Esyglia's bottom half is a large bulb, like a flower.

Concept art for Esyglia from back in 2022, drawn by bsky.app/profile/fren.... Her design hasn't really changed since then, the rest of us all loved it too much!

To be fair I just assumed it was a phrase I hadn't heard before and logged it in my mental phase book.

A black cat stands on top of a dresser with her mouth wide open looking at the ceiling. She's looking away from the camera, but screaming loud enough for everyone to hear.

Why she scream?

A dark blue winter coat sits balled up on a carpeted floor, a black cat is curled up tightly on top of it.

Now that it's not cold out anymore, time to put that winter coat to good use these next few months.

A screenshot from an options menu. "Accessibility" is currently selected, with options to change text size, text contrast, text speed, line spacing, textbox transparency, text to speech, text to speech volume, base battle speed and notification speed. The final option is slightly cut off, implying there are more options under it.

Working on accessibility features ^.^
