News
Happy Halloween!
Yes, you read that right. Octovember. The time in-between October and November where it's 2am and I'm still up, working on my website for some reason.
Fairly small but significant update, I've rebuilt
Links to be laid out better, look nicer, and support multiple links per "block".
Hopefully you agree it's better.
Now the format for links doesn't involve copy-pasting the same chunk of HTML, which reminds me, I should redo this News section in the same way at some point.
If they're covering the entire width of the screen, try reloading the stylesheets.
Anyway, I'm another year older now. Not that it changes much, but yeah, thought you might want to know. Yippee!
Heyo!
I've made a page on
BOOTH.pm where I will be listing prefabs and selling avatars I make for VRChat. (Yes, I play VRChat. Probably a little too much lol. My profile is listed on the
Links page)
Anyway, if you also happen to play VRChat, I'd appreciate if you go for a quick look.
You may have noticed the new "Theme" button in the navigation bar. I've added some website themes! So far they're pretty barebones, but I might make some more over time. At the very least it was a fun experiment.
As usual, make sure to hit Shift+Reload to force download the new stylesheet if any of the themes don't work.
Other than that, I'm also planning to add screenshots of some projects to the gallery section, as well as naturally some more art.
Some of that is already there!
It's been a while, hey?
I've been away from my main computer, so I've had restricted access to a lot of things, particularly website updates.
As for activities, let's see...
- I made a
GitHub page with some repos.
- Notably, I've started working on a new more data-driven engine for Everlost Isle for fun, because the old one was kind of a bunch of spaghetti. We'll see if it gets mature enough to replace the old one.
- I've played around with
Picotron a bit, made a wallpaper and a desktop pet. Waiting for it to get a bit more mature before I commit to making anything big in it, though.
- Been making some VRChat avatars.
- Made a short, chill VR experience that I'm
also porting to VRChat, where you find pages on a cloud island to call down a raincloud.
I've made a couple behind-the-scenes changes to the site too. Made a simple link shortener thing so I can link places without putting the whole link, and changed the CSS to use a colour palette so it's not spamming #aaa and such everywhere. (Maybe I'll make some themes, ooh!) As such, some colours may have changed.
Hey all!
Ninja Cat Remewstered is out now with improved graphics, gameplay options and controls!
You can buy it from
itch.io or the
Google Play Store.
Woah, the news section finally got updated!
Now it's got this fancy card effect like the intro box up above, and an inset bar for the title. As usual with these style updates, force-reload the page if this section is still plain text.
I've updated the page for
Ninja Cat Remewstered to include a few more details. It's getting really close to me being happy for a release... now I just need to remember Pixel Shock's itch.io password. (kidding, of course)
As for website changes, I've made most of the galleries have a default category open when the page loads. It's not much, but it restores the pages' default look from before I added the categories.
On top of that, I found out how to make the full-view galleries use the thumbnail images in the previews, instead of loading every single full-size image as soon as you enter the full view as it was doing before. Yay, bandwidth!
I added a little loading icon for the gallery sections, it's a spinning Willow with CB the cat on her head. Not sure how well it works, but hopefully gallery images that are sometimes missing on the first category button press should be solved now.
I kind of want to make some form of Characters page at some point with information on all my characters, perhaps that can be an "I'm bored" project for the coming months.
To help organise things a little better, the Galleries and Download sections on each page have been rearranged, with categories to sort between different types of content.
(hit Shift+f5 if you've been here before and the category buttons are small and white)
For example, you don't have to filter between the sketch versions of comics in the Comics section anymore!
As usual, there's a few new drawings in the gallery. The gallery view now allows you to zoom in to 5x, so you can actually see pixel art now!
Got a few new items in the sketch gallery, and some images now have captions for context or extra info.
Also the page not found page has a couple new quotes, and I've changed the galleries to use different filters depending on the images they are showing. (now to find out how to make FancyBox zoom in tiny images by default)
I rearranged some things and updated a bunch of CSS, and added some more stuff to the Gallery. In addition, there's now a page for Ninja Cat Remewstered in the Games menu!
The galleries use Fancybox for a fullscreen gallery view now! They also use smaller preview images so you don't have to download many large images all at once, and should now work better with Chrome-based browsers.
The embed for Terra actually looks nice now.
And...
Comic #2! This one involves Marshy (Marshmallow Infinity) and Willow (Everlost Isle)
Be sure to hit Shift+Reload (or hold the reload button on mobile) if the navigation bar isn't centred!
Various site updates; now we're dark mode everywhere!
Some more art as well as a couple project page updates.
Added a page under The Random Box featuring my PICO-8 Beat Saber semi-demake.
Have some more.
New logo.
New navbar.
New art.
New games.
So much new stuff!
ALSO, what's this Everlost Isle thing?
(By the way, if the page is messed up and you've visited before, try hitting CTRL+F5 to force reload. That might fix it.)
Added a speedrunning tab with some tips for Ninja Cat speedruns, and updated the PICO-8 Carts page
Added some new art, updated the Marshmallow Infinity game selection screen and fixed a bug in Marshmallow Plus.
Added a new page with a new endless platformer game called Marshmallow Infinity.
A 3DS homebrew remake of infinitescroll.py and some small text changes.
Added some python programs that I made recently to the Misc tab and updated some of the page header images. Added a gallery to most of the pages.
Updated Pico Pixel Jump using some of the secret palette colours to make it closer to the TIC-80 version, added some new art. Pages now sort properly.
Fixed incorrect view area in Jelpi Party and added some demo cartridges.
Added some new PICO-8 games and updated Drone Fight.
We have added some new pages for artwork and other programs that don't really need their own page.
Today we are proud to relaunch the site with a new look and new content. The new design will make it easier for us to update the site with new additions and new titles. Take a look around and download anything you find interesting, we would be interested to hear any feedback, you can contact through @shShockDig on twitter.
