We're still on for tonight at midnight, hope to see ya then!

CW: Spider Fun fact I learned that genuinely doesn't seem real: Camel Spiders can make squeaking noises when they're threatened. It's called "stridulating" I'm an insect/arachnid weirdo and never knew this until today. Weird. Cool! But weird.

October 6th we'll be back again for another shot at Sonic is Alone! Got a few other fun things in store that night I'll be getting together that I'm excited for too, hope to see you soon! www.twitch.tv/des_hex

She geo on my dude till I gravel 'er

The best thing EA ever did was partner with Nintendo on the GameCube port of SSX On Tour so that you can watch Luigi snowboard to Bat Country by Avenged Sevenfold

Man, I really like season 13 of the Simpsons, some of my all time favorite episodes are in there, but that episode where Apu cheats on his wife always kinda bums me out. Good jokes in the episode for sure, but that main plot point and the way it happens bugs me every time I watch it.

not what its called

🍎🌸🐉

Just finished up, couple bullet points on everything I played tonight: Pool Dooms - Fun with pretty damn good presentation. (I really don't like the sprite smoothing, but that's a me thing) RatShaker - My 2nd playthrough of this and there was definitely a lot of new cool stuff

Finished up tonight's main 2 points of interest. Going to play through Rat Shaker a second time to cap things off! Been told there might have been some things added since I checked it out last year, either way it's a good short playthrough to bundle in for tonight. Stay tuned

🔴Goin' Live🔴 It's officially Scary Season! I'll be playing through a GZDoom project called Pool Dooms and a Sonic rom hack called Sonic is Alone, both of which I've not played and have very little prior knowledge of. This one should be a lot of fun. Stay tuned! www.twitch.tv/des_hex

Welp, Crumb's 2nd eggsac hatched today, so it's time for another round of Jumping Spider ranching. Thankfully they only just hatched out of their eggsac and should be staying with Crumb in her nest for a good while so I can get prepared for them down the line.

Recently replayed Aria of Sorrow and the followed up by playing through Harmony of Dissonance for the first time. Aria is a masterpiece IMO, and Harmony of Dissonance is also pretty damn good. Circle of the Moon really wasn't grabbing me, but that might have been due to a bit of Castlevania fatigue

I'm pretty pissed off that I'm just not going to be able to get the shiny Koraidon/Miraidon because of how dogshit the launch of the event was. Talked to a Gamestop employee, apparently they were only given roughly 50-60 of those event cards per location here & were gone in less than an hour.

Having now listened to Iron Butterfly's In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida in it's entirety I do appreciate that one Simpsons joke about it a bit more.

Apologies for disappearing damn near entirely for like a week. Was going through a lot, and still am frankly but I'm starting to feel a bit more like myself. I tend to sorta self-isolate when I'm going through stuff and on top of that I kinda lost my voice for a few days.

Heard it called one of the worst movies ever, found it incredibly entertaining

Can't come to the phone rn, playing a copy of Smash Ultimate from Universe B

🔴Goin' Live🔴 I'm finally back for some more Pokemon Emerald Seaglass! Been a sec, but as I recall we're a couple badges deep and got ourselves a team. Happy to be getting back to business on this one, stay tuned! www.twitch.tv/des_hex

Never played the Yu-Gi-Oh games on the GBC, but I gotta say the artwork for the cards in Dark Duel Stories is really cool. Love how the old card art style translates.

Dude's doubling down and acting like some savior of indie gaming for having a shitty opinion. Hope that dev team enjoys having an audience of the most insufferable people imaginable

Uploaded some of my Pokemon Gold & Silver styled sprites to Spriters Resource! I posted a few of them here on Bluesky, but I made a lot of new supplementary stuff to check out as well. Been using the site for years, happy to finally share some work there! www.spriters-resource.com/profile/des_...

oh hell yeah dude

IGN's website after 9/11 is....surreal.

Hate to say it, but even that "hell or high water" stream this week is looking like a potential no-go. I've just not been feeling well at all and basically been in and out of sleep all week. Having just woke up again, I'm going to just have to wait and see how I feel unfortunately.

I'm glad Dr.Pepper Zero is a thing, it tastes almost identical to standard Dr.Pepper IMO, but I wish it didn't go flat within a minute of opening.

from what I've seen there was a huge leak that did ACTUALLY show all of Pokémon Legends ZA's new megas with the designs of Dragonite, Malamar, Hawlucha, and Victreebel all being accurately shown. One of the other ones in that leak is going make people MAD when it drops and I'm kinda dreading it.

"<" recognizes ">"

Never seen threadwing antlions before. They sure are something

Gave Toxtricity a try in the Gold/Silver style too! Tried to catch the vibes of the Amped and Lowkey versions best I could. Gotta say these guys were a pretty big challenge, but pretty fun to make

Working with the style a bit more, made a Vikavolt today. Love the railgun bug! Gonna treat this as a thread if I get around to doing any more sprites like this as well

The prototype graphics for the Sonic 3D Blast menu background will never not be funny to me

Man, not sure if I'm just fully getting sick again or what, but I'm finding myself just unable to stay awake these past few days for more than a couple hours at a time and it's pretty frustrating if I'm being real.

CW:Jumping Spider Crumb/Plum Update: The spiderling I kept, named Plum, molted successfully a few days ago and got his first post-molt feeding in. Plum's a hunting champion just like his mom, managed to catch a fruit fly within just a couple minutes. Little dude is doing great and I'm proud of him.

>Set up emulator for specific game I like >game doesn't work right >hours of configuration >check documentation >1 comment on github from 15 years ago saying "oh yeah, this one specific game has issues we can't fix" >every other emulator has the same problem >Sigh of defeat

Hoping for more, but I do have 1 stream I will for sure be doing this week on Thursday be it hell or high water. So look forward to that, and fingers crossed I can get something in before that too.

Wretched creature won't leave me be. Vile!

Found out Three Days Grace was using A I for concert visuals recently, and I am so fucking upset about it. Like, genuinely disappointed to a degree that's probably not reasonable. Shit hurts to see.

Watched the 97 Spawn movie with friends, we actually ended up liking it way more than expected. It's super cheesy to the point where it loops around to being a fun watch.

I have a little sidequest I occasionally do on w*place. If I see an Alucard, I'll sometimes do an enemy sprite from one of the Castlevanias near it. Did the nova skeleton a while back and finished up the large ghost today.
