Cat friend had another vet appointment, the vet seems happy with her progress so she won’t need another visit for awhile.

Games

Video games recently played:
- [ PC ] Finfin : Not really a game, more like a semi-interactive series of animations. Fun piece of software to have running in the background.

- [ PC ] Bugdom : Found a port for modern machines while browsing the interwebs so have been playing some Bugdom. There are ports of the Nanosaur games as well.

- [ PC ] Clash: Artifacts of Chaos : Ace Team’s Zeno Clash games have such lovely art direction. Really enjoy the character design for Pseudo.

- [ PC ] Beyond Good and Evil : A beautiful 2000s era adventure game with some fun creature designs. I really enjoy the photography aspect of the game, encouraging the player to take a moment to observe the environment and its inhabitants.

- [ N64 ] Dinosaur Planet : Playing a patched version. I remember playing Starfox Adventures when I was a kid and not liking the game very much at all. The original vision for the game feels much more cohesive, despite being unfinished.

Moving Pictures

Things that I have watched recently:
- [ Film ] Pan’s Labyrinth : One of my favorite films.

Artwork

I have started work on a project that I can’t talk about yet, but you will likely get to hear about it later this year. Also started [ experimenting with the Blender Game Engine again, ] was feeling nostalgic about it and decided the start working on a thing.
First thing I started work on is a project based in my [ Guys setting. ] Near the end of the month I had a dream about [ flower-wearing frogs ] and decided to use that as inspiration for a [ 1-week project. ]
Didn’t get much work done on the Teratoma comic this month, due to the other project, my health, and needing a break. Hopefully I can get some work done on it in May.

That’s all the words for now,
bye-bye.
