hi there. i'm inbtwn. nice to meet ya!
i sometimes post about Things, mostly niche internet things like youtube videos, webcomics, etc. but i also reblog (rebug) a LOT of cool things so uhhh be warned
We're live! Doing an at least 12-hour marathon to cover the difference on my rent! Magazines! Videos! Demo discs! Every $100 we hit adds a tape of old local commercials to an upcoming TAPEFEST stream! Tune in!! Please!!!
...that is to say, i was reminded that Yume Nikki Online exists a few days back. yes, someone made it so that you can play Yume Nikki and a good chunk of its fangames online with other people. it's kind of dope? anyways, i did some exploring in these games and you can see some of that up above.
i think out of all of the games on the site Yume 2kki is my favorite (as well as being the most active), but even so I wish it were less unnerving at times. yeah i know that's kind of the whole allure of Yume Nikki but like. as someone whose mental health isn't in the greatest of shape, it would be nice to have a mod that just kind of blocks off the more creepy areas, y'know? at least 2kki has some areas that are nice to look at, so.
I wrote about Wuzzo Goes on Holiday, an incredibly charming children's storybook game for the CD-i. It follows a bird furry named Wuzzo as he completely blunders the start to his vacation. It's cute, funny, and gorgeous looking.
Wuzzo was never released, and there's almost nothing written about it anywhere online, but I was able to track down a number of its developers to bring you the definitive story behind how it was made and why it never came out.
It's a shame too, because I really fell in love with this game while writing about it. It's really very fun, and I bet kids would have loved it in 1992.
Misty has once again dug up a really cool obscure game and found out some really neat info about this, going to far as to interview several of the developers!! Have I mentioned mistys blog is incredibly cool
