Everything got better when I became a green-haired 2D girl. I do fun and unusual things with video games and pinball.

cohost inspired me to do more. Thank you



For this week's Flannel Patch community multiworld, I'm trying three new things:

  • the new Earthbound randomizer!
  • the beta randomizer for The Witness, which adds the "Umbra Variety" mode, which has the new puzzle mechanics of the "Sigma Expert" mode but not all the extra difficulty and malice
  • Mario Kart 64. You may be asking, "how do you add randomized gates to progression in Mario Kart?" Would you believe that the answer is literal gates across the track in extremely inconvenient places

I don't want to call out the specific person or people who have been showing up in my chat or asks to

  • instruct me to try playing a particular video game
  • say nothing about the game except its title or that "it's good"
  • the game does not seem to be something I would play

but like, what did you think you were going to accomplish?

I'm not even looking for new games! I already have games!

this is not about the people who told me I should play Balatro, when I griped that roguelike deckbuilders had fallen into a rut. Those people were saying something relevant and correct
