Floofy-tailed maker of noises, and sometimes games.

@RealKrystalFox Actually my favourite cake too. If I ever go into a café and they've got a Victoria sponge on offer, I cannot pass it by.

GODDAMMIT I FORGOT THE SUN THING ON HER THIGH

[Snowy Fox @SnowyFoxFox]

Still intending to switch to Bluesky, but I rise from my long slumber to shout out @RealKrystalFox, a thoroughly wonderful person who made my first Scotiacon absolutely magical.

I don't usually gush about guests of honour, but she gets an exception. Gave her this to take home.

[Snowy Fox @SnowyFoxFox]

@RealKrystalFox Holy crap, I relate to this right now. I had to let go of something I was holding onto at Scotiacon this weekend.

(Scotia was a bit of a rollercoaster for me. The rest of the con was easier after I let go.)

@0Mrcrow2 What a goober.

Previously, the player was stumbling around blind.

But now... they have eyes. And they can use them to look at things.

@reduzio I was unsure whether to switch over to Bluesky or to Mastodon. I guess this has decided that for me.

Presenting a revolution in game design concepts.

You are now able to move...

EAST AND WEST.

(Also you can word your move commands a few different ways.)

@WebstersYouTube Also, by coincidence, JayzTwoCents has done a video where he's trying to build a PC of as similar specs as possible for the same price. Interesting viewing. https://t.co/OL4YRVMNr5

Anyway, thanks for taking a moment to read this. I'll of course post links to my new online spaces once I've opened them. Until then, take care!

[Snowy Fox @SnowyFoxFox]

It's time for some changes. Quite a lot of them, in fact.

TLDR: sometime soon, I'll be leaving this account, and Twitter, and moving elsewhere. See thread for explanation.

[Snowy Fox @SnowyFoxFox]

The things I'm most undecided on - and have looked into least - are alternatives to YouTube and Twitter. If anyone has any good recommendations for these, I'll be extra appreciative. Open source options get top consideration.

@WebstersYouTube Seven hundred Quid is absolutely a valid price point for an entry-level PC that could easily be expanded later.

At least this isn't the PS5's initial release price. I guess they learned something when they tried that with the PS3. (Which was their last good home console, IMO.)

[Snowy Fox @SnowyFoxFox]

This thing's still VERY rough, but rather than just making a text adventure of my own, the idea is for it to be a basic tool for quickly making simple text adventure RPGs. Let me know if this interests you.

[Snowy Fox @SnowyFoxFox]

The scrolling shooter is still on the backburner, but I've been tinkering with a simple text adventure system to get myself back into #gamedev.

@claricetudor_ I love that the T is emblazoned with a Tudor Rose and a raspberry. Clever.
