    I've never used an alarm clock in my life. I started using my DS's alarm clock feature when I needed one, and then as time has gone on I've always had some kind of device to handle alarms for me from then on.
     
     
    It's an effective alarm I'd say. I use a dumb joke as my alarm now, but this would be one I'd consider if I was going to take one that is easier to explain.
    I think I've seen one of those clocks at a military base's housing though.

    If you just want cheap animation/audio plays, I found that youtube actually does a good job recommending them when you are watching one provided that you watch from a clean browser.  Here are some examples.
     
    I didn't go past the first twenty seconds or so on these videos so I make no guarantees about the contents, but each of these channels seem to have plenty of videos to go through.

    Was looking around for a spare book for college, when I found my old book from my classes from 5 years ago.
    It was mostly unused, but in one of the pages there was this doodle, so I tried to recreate it.
     
     
    Was playing around with new brushes, created new character.
    You yee'd your last haw, monsieur.

    Currently super sick so I played some Mario Golf. It's a pretty pretty game so I thought it might be nice for a study:

    Just had a feature length movie one.
     
    Immigrant family of mother and son* move to a new country with nothing and fall on hard times, inciting incident is eventually having to commit murder just to survive (doesn't really show it but implied it was a corrupt landlord). Somehow, though this kinda shows dream logic jumps, the two eventually join the military to change their fortunes, though there's several issue where their documents aren't clean and they are guilty of a murder, though the case is obviously cold by now. They have moments of tension where they have to mess with records before being sent to their commanding officers, keep their lies straight, etc. While life abroad in the military isn't great, they obviously like it more than abject poverty, and near the end of their tour of duty abroad there's a moment where someone asks the younger boy if they'd have a smoke and gamble with them after all is said and done and they're back in the country. I remember the scene gets really intense as the line comes up.
     
    And that was the exact moment that the movie cut for me, right before the boy gave an answer, and I remember seeing threads being made complaining "SO WAS THAT THE FUCKING DEVIL TEMPTING HIM OR SOMETHING WHAT" and there was this whole wild raging debate about whether the end was artistic genius or a complete anticlimax, and/or some kind of weird religious grandstanding by the director. I remember thinking the power went out in my house for a moment.
     
    *I think in hindsight it makes more sense if they're sister and brother, considering how their ages would have to be similar to join the military, but I remember they were originally mother and son. Just another dream gap I guess.

    I really wanted to nail down ABI's design, so I decided to set out on making a full turnaround sheet for her. Super happy to have finally finished these sketches!

     
    Definitely gonna take a break before continuing though, it wore me out a bit. Her feet were a particular pain point. I knew exactly what shapes I wanted them to consist of, but I was having trouble convincing myself how those would actually look from different angles. So I drew a 2D orthographic view...

     
    ...so that I could 3D model it and rotate it and reference it back for 2D lol


     
    This was the first thing I've ever 3D modeled that wasn't homework, so it was a bit of a pain in the ass but a good learning experience. And now I have a reference I can use forever! I modeled it using Solidworks, but I wanna try and learn Blender sometime too.

    Same, to the point I always remember it as "Hive" until someone mentions the actual game again.

    Meanwhile I'm still remembering stuff I played last year, not going to add it to the list because it's arguably even less of a "game" than those fangames I played, but Cursed Halo was another extremely fun co-op experience for me and my most halo-brained friend. It's a mod for Halo 1 MCC that adds a bunch of ridiculous weaponry and vehicles to the game, some custom cutscenes, and even an added Mario Kart level that worked surprisingly well. Said friend and I had been following the creator's work modding the game for years and suddenly we were just able to download an entire playable campaign via the steam workshop. I think what really made this work for me is that Halo was the first game where I would just have a blast fucking around with the physics engine, spending hours on Silent Cartographer carting marines around to build up massive grenade piles for warthog jumping. Combining this with things like the gmod tools is a pure stroke of genius an gave me a huge hit of nostalgia. Also there are "d20 grenades" with random effects from summoning a squad of enemies to killing everything on the map, and if you know me, that is the sort of thing I immediately seek out and play around with in any game.
    In the same vein as Huff's best moments here is a clip of us using our raw intellect to solve a problem wherein we had no suitable weaponry to kill a pair of hunters conventionally:

    I kind of forgot one big part of this year in gaming for me and it was Final Fantasy 14 Online. Which I kind of started years ago but my friends dropped and then I spent on and off playing it but kinda got all my progress this last year. This is important because if I'm adding best girl and best boys (since Huff did it) they're all coming from this game. I'll split it up into expansions though I dunno how important it will be to really bother.
     
     
    And then the best boy/girl mainly so I can just gush about some characters I like from the game:
     
     
    Overall FFXIV is a weird game and I am not really in it for any of the hardcore MMO stuff like raiding, though I like levelling jobs and learning new roles and stuff. I don't really know if I would recommend it just for the story either because it takes a really long time to get to the interesting parts, but once you're there it's pretty cool. It's kind of just hitting a decent blend of everything to keep me on the hook, more or less.

    Final Fantasy XIV is a game my friend loves and I just...never got it. By the time I got through A Realm Reborn and then the, zero exaggeration on number of quests here TWO FUCKING HUNDRED GOD DAMN BULLSHIT UNSKIPPABLE PIECE OF SHIT SIDEQUESTS YOU'RE FORCED TO SLOG THROUGH TO GET TO Heavensward I was pretty checked out, and nothing about Heavensward was interesting enough to draw me back in.

    Holy fucking shit, I was looking around for that teleporter glitch weeks ago and never managed to find a single stance of it.
     
    I knew it was named after some creature, but I couldn't find anything about "TF2 Medusa teleporter glitch"

    Now if you'll ex-ceeeeuuuuwwssee me, I'm going to spend a quiet evening my my NINTENDO gameCUBe.
     
    This was probably the best year of new videogames I've experienced. Looking at my top ten... looks like a whole two of them weren't released in 2023! Looking back at my previous GOTY thread posts, that is by and away the best I've done. I think I started my last post looking at my steam wrapped with dismay at how much time I poured into roguelikes. Lemme see how I did this year...
     
    hm.
     
    Well, other than somehow not killing myself while grinding out the maximum rank in Hades, I managed to mostly steer clear of the Roguelike curse this year. I like roguelikes! But I dump far too much time into them and get into ruts far too quickly. But late to the party due to needing to finish up two of them, here are the games I played this year.

    And yes, Silent did post this early to cheese me off a bit; I've been talking to him about how excited I was for this over the past few weeks. Thing is, I'm writing this the night before a plane flight, and IDK if SPUFpowered is gonna save this draft. I still have yet to finish American Arcadia and Cocoon and will post and amend this one once I finish them. I think I know where I'm going to place the latter, but I'm unsure about the former yet. Neither are making my top ten. Here we go!

    I ended up playing a mix of new and old stuff this year.
    Ended up on the hypetrain for a decent number of high profile releases.
     
    As I wrote this, I realized I played a ton of short games, mostly shooters, this year.
     
    Stuff I played this year.
     
    Top picks are probably
    TitanFall 2 - One of the best campaigns I've played in a really fun shooter.
    Disco Elysium - This one's going to stick with me
    Metal Hellsinger - Finally a heavy metal Rhythm FPS game that isn't a roguelike
    Robocop - Weirdly really good
    Shadows of Doubt - Hope it gets more updates
    Pizza Tower - Of course
    Resident Evil 4 Remake - Really solid
    Armored Core 6 - Really Solid
    Slay the Princess - Not usually my thing, but was very surprised.
    Tears of the Kingdom - Really enjoyed the new stuff, need to go back to it at some point.

    This year is probably about right even though I really feel like I didn't play anything. Honestly I kinda want to make this years' resolution to be more active and try new things on the games front.

     
     
    I also give an honorable mention to TF2 because the latter half of the year I fell back in love with the Huntsman and fucking hell that weapon is so much fun to use.
