Here's a completely and utterly useless Mario fact

There was an album made at around 1983 named ''Donkey Kong Goes Home'', basically 7 pretty bland songs that don't really have to do with the games

But there is one named... Jump Up

Interesting, isn't it


I am not saying that anyone in the Odyssey team actually remembered the album, this is obviously a coincidence, but I do find it amusing that it has a very similar name to Jump Up Superstar, which is also based on the '81 Donkey Kong

Also, it has some... Pretty interesting lore, such as Donkey Kong growing up and living in a zoo, Mario owning a pizza parlour instead of being a carpenter, all of this being in a place named Gamesville instead of New York, or Mario and DK knowing themselves from long ago, the reason why he was throwing barrels being him playing catch and apparently only 25 m is canon for whatever reason

Also this was Mario's first voice ever, it being by Larry Moran (Rest in Peace 1939-2017)

#Candy I completely forgot about this lol, here's something quick I cooked up

Btw I made a Tumblr account a few days ago, I will probably barely if ever post on it, but it IS there

Also I think it's fun to draw stupid Pinterest memes, as much as I hate the website, I realised this month that drawing IS fun sometimes

Domino masks still count as a #Mask, right?

Anyway I have stuff to do, I'll lock in tomorrow

Wahoo! This week's Fan Art Friday celebrates Mario! Accept the quest in your quest log to get started.

Nothing better than being fashionably late to new year's resolutions as well, huh

A new quest celebrating Dead Pets Unleashed just entered your quest log!

Dead Pets Unleashed is a rock feminist adventure where you play as a demon named Gordy (the bassist of the punk band Dead Pets.)

Play the #DeadPetsDemo now: https://bit.ly/deadpetsgj

Ta-da! Look guys, it's a #Pumpkin, it's right there!

Yeah, just like last year I did something about my Dragon Ball phase, this year's Marvel, baby! Thank you all for tuning in for this year's Joltober! I can't believe this is like my 3-4th

Sorry guys I overslept, anyway pretty sure at least one of these is a #Witch

Time for the last one... Wuhu

We have a question and we wanna know: What's a game you wish you could replay for the first time? Complete the quest and you'll get Coins!

To anwser the question "Where have I been", I actually have an anwser this time
