personal account of a 30-something weirdo masquerading as a "ZZT company"



waht ppl these days don't understand is the because of STAR WARS cherubim have alot hard time doing their jobs.

it used to be the case that when any old bloke stumbled into the tree of life that the cherubim could just wave their flaming sword around and scare people away real easy. now, however, nerds like you just stare at the sword and say "woag that's so cool!!", ask dumb questions about kyber crystals and fighting stances, and say "don't worry mx. cherry buddy, i know so much about biblically accurate angels, im all about being not afraid". what people don't realize however is that cherubim don't actually like using their swords, because every time they kill, maim, touch, or even appear to a mortal they have to report the situation to the Angelic Oversight Board, you bet they'd catch a lot more flak for messing with someone who was just looking with stupified wonder rather than hubristicly defying their divinely invested authority. it puts them in a very tricky situation.

so please, next time u see a cherub u can make their job easier by looking away from their lightsaber, turning around, and slowly walking away :eggbug: (note: this does not apply to seraphim or other forms of heavenly beings)

The combination of every extrapolation of what a Sonic game could be and tons of unrelated truly amateur mspaint style stuff, polished professional productions, illegal homebrew pc ports, weird sloppy experiments, and demos of original games that will be popular six months from now is so cool. A really beautiful remnant of The Old Internet

I've made "marketable plushie" jokes enough times about my OC that people keep telling me to make the marketable plush a reality. Thus, in the spirit of marketability, I create a survey to do some market research:

Survey Link

(Note that the minimum orders for custom plushies are (for a person of my popularity) quite ridiculous in terms of $$$, so in practice this is just a silly survey of no consequence unless I suddenly become a millionaire, so the only people that would end up with these plushies (if I make them) would be myself and however many close friends I could give them to before burning out on making them by hand. Please answer honestly though.)

Wow! Interesting account I really just followed you- may I ask what’s your favorite game/g.c)? !

oh hey! it's that fella from sonic! not sure why you'd follow me but i'm flattered nonetheless.

My favorite game? Well, if you've followed me or looked at my posts for any appreciable amount of time, you'll suspect it's a Metroid. That might be correct. Metroids 2 and 3, followed by Prime and 5, are the most interesting to me.

If you want a more thorough understanding of gaming tastes, I made one of those Game Grids several months ago. Check it out!

As for the second half of your question, I'm not sure what you mean by "g.c", so I'll just make several educated guesses:

  • Game Creator (software) - ZZT for DOS. This is very much a nostalgia and "I already know how to use this tool too well"-brainrot kind of choice, but I like how without too much effort I can produce a reasonable facsimile of a visual novel or an old-school top-down puzzler/action-adventure thing, and also not worry about composing any music (not a talent of mine).
  • Game Creator (person) - Any of my wonderful friends who make smalltime games and mods. :eggbug:
  • Game Character - Did you know you can make an original character and put them in a videogame so they can be someone's favorite videogame character (for real, and not even by technicality!)? You did? Well, uh, ignoring that option, I'd say Wario. I love his disgusting chaos gremlin energy.
  • Grape Cluster - Whatever grapes I happen to be eating now. I'm not picky.
  • Grimp Collection - My grimp collection can be found here.
  • Gravel Clump - I have no gravel-related preferences.

Hope this helps!
