There are games that are extremely popular that I just don’t get. Grim Dawn has a loyal fanbase and a Very Positive rating on Steam. Yet after three hours, I still can’t understand the appeal. Am I out of touch, or is it the children who are wrong?
Creating a Butterfly Golem
A while ago there was a thread by Sushifox on PlanetMinecraft offering to create “adaptamobs”. Based on an earlier thread about digital pets, an adaptamob is simply one of 6 types of mobs represented in 2D, but with a specific theme applied to it.
There Are Two Wolves Inside
Another attempt at a simple webcomic. I thought this was funny, maybe you will as well. I may have been a few drinks in when I thought this one up.
Doomsayer: Curse of Kozah
While the Troupe helped protect an archeological dig, they were forced to fight their way out through possessed archeologists. Before they left the tomb, Rose stole an artefact from the ruins of the ancient society.
Wat Pha Lat: Monk’s Trail
I love hiking, so of course we searched for a good hike in Chiang Mai. Wat Pha Lat, also known as the Monk’s Trail is one of the most popular hikes in the area, starting just on the edge of the city.
THOTH – Frustratingly Fun
THOTH, unlike the Egyptian god of the same, is a minimalist game that feels like playing a work of abstract art. It was created by Jeppe Carlsen, former lead developer on Limbo and Inside. It’s a game of short, fast-paced action and problem solving.
Placing Butterfly Origami
This week I implemented something I thought would be simple. But as it turns out, even the simplest of features can introduce a few interesting problems to solve. So this is the chronicle of how I implemented Butterfly Origami.
Wireless Earbud Touch Controls
I’ve finally jumped on the wireless earbud bandwagon and I really enjoy using them. Except for one major flaw, which you can probably tell from the title. I don’t understand who in their right mind decided that these things needed touch controls.
Baldur’s Gate and Inventory Management
For a while now I’ve been playing a heavily modded version of the Baldur’s Gate Trilogy where I make use of modded container items.
Dream Space Gallery: Street Art
As in most cities, Chiang Mai has art galleries, but some are a little more hidden away. Just south east of Chiang Mai’s Old Town Wall, you will find a place called the Dream Space Gallery.
