My name is Tomie (She/They) but I try to use the handle Tomiegotchi on most things. I live with my two cats (Leonard and Phoebe) and my partner (They/Them).

I do pixel art and am currently learning to code games via Picotron. I’ve dabbled in drawing comics in the past and I like to make music from time to time.

I’ve been in love with video games since I was first introduced to them when I was around 5ish. (Could have been younger but I don’t have a good memory of before 5.) I have a huge fondness for Pixel Art & Low Poly Graphics and love finding indie games that use either. Some of my favourite genres are:
• Roguelike
• Metroidvania
• Dungeon Crawlers
• Platformers
• Shmups
• Fighting Games
• Rhythm Games
• Arcade Puzzlers (Puyo Puyo, Puzzle Bobble, Etc)
• RPG (Indie, Lore Heavy, Niche Story or a mix of the 3)
I’m interested in getting into visual novels and have a few on my backlogs I want to check out but I haven’t had the time yet.

One of my all time favourite mediums is comics because I think that it’s able to mesh both style and substance without detracting from each other. (When done well that is) There’s also a lot more room for experimentation with story telling and tends to be a medium that has a lower entry point for independent creators. I don’t discriminate between type of comics; Strips, Graphic Novels, Webcomics, Manga, etc they’re all enjoyable in my opinion. Some of my favourite works:
• Muhyo & Roji’s Bureau of Supernatual Investigation
• Mieruko-chan
• Chi No Wadachi (Blood on the Tracks)
• Girls with Horns
• The Works of Junji Ito
• Alien Heart
• Black Hammer
• Yuna & Kawachan
• Bone
• Johnny The Homicidal Maniac
• Garfield (Mostly strips pre 2000)

I listen to a lot of alternative music. At the moment a lot of Shoegaze, Post-Punk, New Wave, Metal and Alt-Hip-Hop but I’ve been dabbling more into DnB, Breakbeat and other electronic genres.

I’m a fan horror movies and any sort film that uses practical effects. My partner and I collect VHS tapes and have amassed a good collection of some great movies. I also really enjoy animation of any sort.

I think that’s a pretty good quick summary of me. Please enjoy my blog. 💜
