The weather was finally suitable to take Kirby outside on the leash for the first time.

Bud was hanging out outside too.

This is why Nibbler got his name lol.

Junior sleeps on me every night now. He's become quite attached.

It's Sakura's birthday??

I did this one for fun a few years back. #streetfighter #sakura #pixelart #NeoGeoPocket

Started working on Fighting Game Game-Jam prep.

Got the Update on Demand System to the minimum feature level needed for the Jam. It strictly controls the Gameplay FPS & Processing, useful for Fighters (and Rollback Netcode).

More details

Would it be interesting if I participated in this Game Jam? "Starting March 31, 2026 and ending May 1 2026, you have one month to make a fighting game." https://itch.io/jam/fighting-game-versus-jam-2026 I would be using Unreal Engine, with a small team of friends.

Found this in the closet, it has to be my wife's lmao. I need another desk mat so this will do for now I guess 🤣

Weekend night hang out with the stray kitties on the porch. That's Rocky (Rockman), Junior, and Rocky again.

I'm doing Unreal Engine research on my potato laptop, in the fresh nighttime air.

(A Chromebook jail broken with Linux on it. Runs amazing!)

Going to try and setup for Streaming & Recording on Kubuntu (a kind of Linux).

Wish me luck lol. I've got a lot of audio hardware to get working...

Most didn't realize that part of the colorization specification was maintaining 100% backwards compatibility with the original NeoGeo Pocket 3-Color look via palette swap only. I enforced this by mandating every new sprite to be made *first* in 3-Color.
