Kawayoo

Kawayoo is a busy artist, and not just in drawing illustrations for art books and Pokémon cards. His electronic music puts me in the mood to write code. I’ve been working on adding a key config menu to Skeleton Hunter, and when it’s finished, I’ll tell you all about it.

It's been too long since this type of post. pixiv is just a fire hose of cool art. I could start browsing tags and artists and lose my entire afternoon there, so I don't check it like I used to.

Imperial Boy - Vegetable Garden

Imperial Boy's detailed, colorful background art makes for some great desktop wallpapers. He's always got this sense of vertical scale that I've always tried to work into my level designs.

(Starting with this post, every image on my old WordPress blog had unique mouseover text. Tumblr does not support mouseover text for the featured image in an image post, so I’ll have to copy those over as plain text captions as demonstrated below. Mouseover text doesn’t work well on mobile, anyway. As far as I know, the mouseover text on images is the only feature I lose in the transition to Tumblr. I could theoretically fix this in the theme, but it wouldn’t affect Tumblr’s dashboard or the mobile app since those ignore themes.)

Hmm, I think I'll add alt text to images. It's a nice little easter egg in XKCD and Dr. McNinja, and hopefully Feedly supports Wordpress's method of doing this too. I just have to remember to change the tag from alt= to title= each time.

Minion in the Museum

Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery had this Despicable Me minion balloon stuck on a high ceiling. When it finally came down, the security cameras caught footage of it wandering the museum like it had a mind of its own. Whenever I get a balloon, I add weight to it to get it to silently float around like an Air Swimmer. It’s a rare sight, and if you don’t expect it, you might think it’s a ghost!

Core-A Gaming

Core-A Gaming posts fun videos that make fighting game concepts easier to understand. The one I’ve posted here explains what makes a move too powerful by breaking down properties of hitboxes, frame data, and even hitstun.

TerminalMontage – Something About Super Mario 64

Super Mario 64 is fun to speedrun and fun to break. YouTube animator TerminalMontage captures this pretty accurately in this animated 0-star speedrun. I’m heading to GDEX to play some local indie games and break them, of course. EDIT: GDEX got too serious and too expensive, so I actually didn't go.

Japanese TV Commercials Best Of 2015

Anime Hell brought the pain to Ohayocon again this weekend and, like I promised, I took notes. Most of their Japanese TV commercials this year came from the same source: JPCMHD’s Very Best of 2015 compilation. Just put this on in front of a room full of friends and soak it in.

This is the very best from 2015. Hope you guys enjooooy! (^_^)–b

Rob Hubbard – Monty on the Run

30-Day Video Game Music Challenge (Super Hard Mode) Day 26: Music you like from a game you haven’t played From Monty on the Run (C64, 1985)

I grew up in an Apple II house, so I’ve barely touched the Commodore 64. I’ve played Space Taxi a couple times, but that’s it. Is THEC64 worth picking up?

Wave – Commission - More Meowvels

Getting into MUGEN territory here. You know, in case Marvel wasn't broken enough for you.

A commission from someone on DA to draw more Meowvel vs Catcom. XD

Corruption as Art – Go Straight (remix EP)

Corruption as Art uses a real-time corruptor mod for BizHawk to flip random bits in memory while a game is running. Usually this just crashes the game, but sometimes things break in interesting ways. When applied to Streets of Rage 2, the music keeps playing but goes out of sync and creates strange remixes. Be warned that some posts, like How to Draw Kirby, feature “extreme flashing”. Lately I’ve been tearing things down and putting them back together in better organized ways, but this has introduced some glitches.

Here’s a new bandcamp thing I put out just now, I’ll be sure to come up with clever track names and stuff like that when I get home from work later but the tracks are all there for your ears i guess
