A semi-nomadic online traveller from Verdigris, archiving, connecting and creating as much as he can.
Also a budding architect, visual artist, and demoscene musician at heart.
You can also see me down Masto-raft at @jupritona, and Fanlore (JWPH) and Newgrounds (that1verdeian).
Recently tried out vivid/statis on PC (via my older sister’s (now my younger bro’s) laptop) since last week, even though I’m not that much of a rhythm game enthusiasts, speaking as a young adult keen on exploration and slow-paced music in video games.
For what it’s worth, it just feels and plays quite good, with only four keys to smash and hold note bars to (much like Stepmania and other related RGs, but with the addition of bumper bars), as well as a couple of modes and storyline beats to try and dive deep into, including the tough-as-nails, one-miss-and-you-fail Ultimate mode. And its palette of featured songs are a worthwhile mention, ranging from the slow-paced to the absolute hardcore banger type. And this week, I just scored my first FC on Luminaria (Opening 1), and witnessed the game’s first edition of their tournament DUALIZED ASCENSIA unfold, from start to finish. Reeked of adrenaline-fueled fun and competition.
That being said, playing through my way on this game deffo improved on my physical reflexes and typing speed quite a bit, even though I get grades lower than A on certain harder charts. I guess we will see if I can achieve my first V grade and complete Class 1 in Course Mode after a couple more rounds of practice and studying Youtube plays of some of those aforementioned charts.
It would be mostly this song by Filipino band Over October, even though this could also apply to those missing their own parents or siblings for so long:
Into the Light
And, about time for some listening to this one banger Free Money! rip on Youtube as a sort of ironic celebration.
And by that, he’ll call it his own “Las Nevadas”, but way, way more insidious and manipulative.
@Sweetpeaches69 Thus, the recursive idea of “ideas” themselves, be it good, bad, or somewhere in-between.
And now, it’s not just news-producing sites; a while ago, I tried to look for the dimensions for the toilet and bath sections for a typical Filipino home, and lo and behold, two identical GAI cobblin’ sites appeared on top of the search results!
Seems quite extensive, but… do I place some and/or all of it on the “My rules” or “My filters” tab on uBlock?
Modular synthesis, archiving, lost media, and most of all, rhythm game lore.
