My coworker said that applying a blind box gacha strategy / picking based on vibes the album cover gives off when purchasing vinyls is a crazy thing to do So anyways I bought this during my trip to Penang last year on New Year's Eve because fish fish fish white dawg(?) awoo to the moon
I went to the supermarket today with my family and I went looking for more succulents (I bought the top two) And the supermarket decided to give out free succulents this week any time you purchase up to a certain amount of stuff (we bought groceries!) SO NOW I'M HOME WITH 4 SUCCULENTS????
"Good friends buy their friends SKONG"🫂🫂🫂 Thank you SKONG friend @myaturii.bsky.social ✨🫶🏻 for tempting me with a game I can't play right now 😔 but will play religiously after Spooktober /j For now I'm dodging all the spoilers that come my way
Frame 1, I got a DM from a friend asking how will it be AHOY??? Maybe it's a (cough) Spooktober casting (cough) call (cough cough)? Maybe it's just a picture of my lovely son Yogurt???
My son Yogurt hasn't needed a drop of water ever since I got him and I underestimated how long they can go without watering 🫳🏻💧 I hope that he becomes healthy enough to regrow the waxy coat on his new leaves
I recently adopted a succulent after loving them from afar for years Everyone say hi to Yogurt
If you see this, I IMPLORE you to post a picture from whatever device you're using without explanation.
My family's gonna be busy tomorrow so I got these delivered and wrapped a day earlier 😌 Happy early Mother's Day!!
Evidently I don't have enough to fill it up yet so temp hair flowers until I grab more for Mother's day 😌💐
for labour day yesterday, I got a new friend named FRÖVÄXT from IKEA www.ikea.com/my/en/p/froe... I love himbs, sparks lots of joy
And I'm glad that my meme posting has reached you too! (have another one from my stash 🫴🏻)
Well well well, 5 days post release and it looks like it's time for #ASongforASwig mini showcases! Did you know that by tweaking the ambience volume slider, you'll be able to hear extra bits of conversations even when Roedahn's focus shifts away from them and back to Berdios?
18 ♥️ Being the audio engineer of the crew means that I could sneak stuff in like: "Come here you! Let's take some ibuprofen together, shall we?" "Agreeable grunt." "We need to kill that AI artist NOW!" "Agreeable grunt."
17 ♥️ From Wawalo's audition sides, there's one line: "My mother wouldn't be proud of this, and I think your mother wouldn't be either. Hell, I'm sure your pet lizard will frown upon this whole schtick too." I've never addressed the lizard in the in-game sprites, but I think it's funnier not to.
16 ♥️ Part 2 of bird lore: The night before I started writing, birds were still in B 123 form. I was up till 2am scheming on VC. Got ready for bed later, but the MOMENT my head hit the pillow, I heard: "It's Louie." Okay... WHAT "It's Louie." Then I conked out. That's such a Louie thing to do.
15 ♥️ In Ren'Py, you have to 'call' your characters so that it displays their name when they talk. I didn't have everyone's names down yet when I started drafting characters, so for awhile, the Ruffles siblings were B1 B2 B3. Which later turned into Basement level parking Left Right turn signal 🚦
12 ♥️ Our itch page has a special thanks section to thank the humans but also the furry friends: Lucy & Ernie for the creation of Berd sprites; Rudy, Simon and Yara for their precious meows! Sorry, I lied about having 16 VAs, there's actually 19 including the cats. Rudy was our first casted actor!
11 ♥️ This initial sketch of Berdios, drawn by Elina and inspired by the bebies in the tagged post below was our banner for both our itch page during the entirety of March and the casting call document. Our Dev team Discord server's icon is still this one though! "i want juice plssss"
10 ♥️ In a normal playthrough of ASFAS, you'll only see 342 lines of dialogue in the text box. I've actually written about 638 lines. Main script + 296 lines ambient walla dialogue. But there's actually WAAAAY more stuff in the game uncounted because there's also improv bits from the VAs!
6 ♥️ Shoutout to my VC gang: Jett, Taylor, Nate, Elina & Rumi with special appearances from Yara, Ernie, Rudy & rarer Java cams. If you think ASFAS is silly, it gets more unhinged in VC with them there. Jokes aside, they're a large reason why I'm sane during game jam hours and stay motivated.
