Wind Waker HD for the Wii U? A damn good game. Also:

I was thinking about strat hoarding in speedrunning recently and wrote up some thoughts. If you've got anecdotes, I want to hear them pastebin.com/D89QudiB

10 years ago this week we got a checkmark. Let's do a little festival. See you tomorrow @ twitch.tv/cleartonic

I was hungry so I made a bowl of pasta. Olive oil and salt. Nothing else. I don't feel bad about it either. I love carbs and if you hate carbs then get the hell out of my sphere.

Played a longtime RPG backlog game, Lost Odyssey. It's got some real cool parts, including awesome cutscene work, characters & early story points, but I didn't like the last chunk of the game very much and I felt that it fell victim to classic uninspiring JRPG endgame tropes. Glad I played though

I got the no damage run for Sonic 3 & Knuckles. The whole thing was a great time: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iphp...

Despite having a kinda rough Global Challenge for Pokemon, I went undefeated every game at the local reg H tournament and challenge cup today. Also I won a Wooloo

Got something Cool

Battle Network 3 was a damn good time

I made a short game for KVFM 3 describing a small part of fellas history, and it's called KVFC. I got sick of AI taking over the world and felt like creating something no one else would probably make. Check it out here: cleartonic.itch.io/kvfc

Hit my goal time in DW4, the last version of DQ4 for me to learn. Now I've got a time in each main version, which are NES, PSX, and NDS. DQ4- pretty good game!

I've been rereading Edith Hamilton's Mythology and it's very interesting to revisit where so much game story and lore comes from. This time I'm especially seeing the La Mulana 1 & 2 inspirations

Last week I finished the Tellius draft (Fire Emblem 9 & 10) with mpg/jersey/rename/casusby. Very fun way to play Fire Emblem, and the Tellius games let you do a lot of cool stuff flexibly. FE10 without battle save was completely reasonable. Looking forward to the next one sometime. Fiona my queen:

I took a needed stream break for 3 months, and we'll be back next week: pastebin.com/suFitU53

mojonbo.itch.io/toads-trees Toad's Trees is here and definitely not a long-lost SNES sequel to Wario's Woods. Free to play, my first game, possibly last idk

What's the hardest speedrun or challenge run you've done. Not even your best, just the hardest to do. Don't be humble- let it rip

Off to RPG Limit Break today. My run for Dragon Warrior Monsters is Friday afternoon. It's this game's first major marathon debut in the west, and the highest chance of failure for any run I've done due to the nature of the game, but I'm as prepared as I can be & it'll be a good time. ctMeat

Been working my way through Sonic games from inception chronologically. I'm up to the year 2005, and I've been keeping a log of it here: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

I completed Outer Wilds Echoes of the Eye DLC. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Here are some brief thoughts: pastebin.com/MX6siLWr

For this year's DQRTA marathon, I'm part of the DQIV-VI relay, and I'm playing DQVI: horaro.org/dqrtam2025/s... I'll also be running Dragon Warrior Monsters at RPGLB this year, which is its debut at this event: tracker.rpglimitbreak.com/runs/rpglb2025

When's the last time you've played your favorite game of all time? Boot up

DQIX complete all done - all quests & full bestiary. Had a great time~

SA2 180 Emblem was such a good ride. It was on my bucket list for game goals to get to one day. Equal parts jank and 2000s masterpiece. Quartz the stumphead carried the Chao squad. Peaf that sucker. GG

After almost 7 years including a long speedrun break, we got Mega Man 8 back again after a tough, mostly offline grind. GG!! Stream watch party this evening~

My Rockman 8 PB was 50:58 from March 2018. Last month in December I finally updated it to 50:55. Today I got a 50:51. My play has gotten better and I've developed some new tech, but I still need the boss luck to pan out overall. It's been tough, but fun to revisit

Over the weekend I learned about Playstation romhacking/assembly and made a Mega Man 8 practice hack, which boots on console with a USB setup on PS2 github.com/cleartonic/r...

Just in time for the year end, it's the !10game for 2024 in spreadsheet review form ft. 12 games docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

I wanted to watch some older anime I never caught before, so I decided to watch the original Neon Genesis Evangelion and now I don't want to watch anime anymore

Here's the recap from the year:

My Mega Man 10 speedrun PB is from 10 years ago. What's a PB you've got from roughly a decade ago (or the oldest you can find)?

After 4,998 battles, we got the full odds shiny Golurk in Pokemon Black 2. It was worth it- a slapstick journey. Got it transferred from Gen 5 to Gen 9, and it's looking fresh. Some of its moved changed from the transfer, but our boy is in 3D. GG

Upcoming plans: - Registered for Toronto VGC regional in December - first time competing - DQVI runs until I PB on English - DQM over the winter with plans to submit to RPGLB - Outer Wilds casual underway - Get the GOLURK
