I draw cartoons and write assembly language.

@Shadoff_d @Alteracious Here's my notes from over a decade ago, unfortunately it's all bitbanged using the I/O register at $1000. No warranty on any of this, but I remember they matched what @furrtek found when the chip was melted.

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

@geoffreyplatt Sure!

The Guardian Legend (Compile)
An unexpected combination of mechanics which reminded me there's still cool things I haven't seen, and to stop being such a massive snob.

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

Oh no, it's 2026! So what was my "most important" media of 2025? As with all the last times, the only requirement is to have changed my mind about something.

Urusei Yatsura : Beautiful Dreamer (Mamoru Oshii)
Made me rethink what works when presenting dreams and imaginary worlds, and was a helpful nudge for my own projects.

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

...and yes, support for the colorization feature will be included in the next version of Wataroo.

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

Finally, some progress! This is, as far as I know, the first demonstration of full color graphics on the SuperVision TV-Link.

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

@15charlong Hah, good catch! That one wasn't deliberate, but my subconscious was probably running a photocopier that day.

Rikki & Vikki Design Manual : Final Cavern (Single)

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

Le Roi et L'Oiseau (Paul Grimault)
Narrative is kinda wobbly, but it left me with lots of new ideas of what you can do with layout.

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

Sarazanmai (Kunihiko Ikuhara)
I had zero interest in watching this, then ended up floored by how densely the art direction integrates with its themes without getting overwhelming. It's still a lot of work though.

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

A Prayer for Owen Meany (John Irving)
DIALOGUE WRITTEN IN ALL CAPITALS TENDS TO FEEL LIKE A GIMMICK, BUT HERE IT WAS BOTH ENDEARING AND PART OF THE NARRATIVE.

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

Oh right, it's another year. So what was my "most important" media for 2024? As before, the only criteria is having changed my mind about something.

@ImStuartKReilly Ah! Thanks so much, Stu!

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

@DeeterRabbit A little bit, yeah. It's pretty impressive, but I don't think it's really my sort of thing. As for the Swapfest, probably!

Defenders of Oasis (Sega)
I didn't like trudging through this one, but some of its design choices were really interesting. Once the Genie learns "Hawltart" you're able to adventure indefinitely by strategically withdrawing him from battles.

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

It's 2024 and time again for my yearly thing. So what was my "most important" media from 2023? As always, the only criteria is having changed my mind about something.

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

Kaiba (Masaaki Yuasa)
The way memories were presented as physical, tangible, interactive things here felt very unique and well integrated with the story. I really enjoyed how this was used for character studies in the middle episodes.

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

@satoshimatrix Unfortunately, I've got no spare adapters left and aren't available to build more. But @TheRetroHQ's Mega7800 is a great alternative!

[Osman Celimli @tailchao]

Finally got around to uploading the design for my ProSMS Adapters, use Master System or Genesis controllers on your 7800 ProSystem! https://t.co/oSkzw4hLzI
