The Road to the Trilogy - Playing Kirby Games

 Hello. C J here. So I had more typing intended for today but I’m already done all of the major items and I’ve figured out how to plan out the quest dialogue for Absolute in a way that will work in the software I’m using. After figuring out software and code for Absolute I’m probably not really up for more hard creative work. Code takes a lot of math. So now onto playing video games. I need to get ideas from somewhere. I thought I’d mention my current list of games I’m working on beating.

There was a new Kirby game called Kirby The Forgotten Land a few years ago. I’ve played some of it and it looks actually innovative, as the Kirby series often is. I picked Kirby The Forgotten Land back up today and apparently there’s a city building mode and the levels are almost open world rather than linear. Wow. I’m normally not that happy with the quality of Nintendo titles these days but Nintendo doesn’t own Hal Laboratories to my knowledge so I guess this is to be expected.

I would be playing it now but the sheer level of cute is getting to me considering now pleasant the script I’m writing is. It’s too pink for my stamina levels right now. I also own Skyrim for the PC and I have been saying to myself that I need to beat it again. Skyrim is most of the inspiration behind my games in terms of game structure and combat. I own it so I should use it. Don’t expect more script samples today as I don’t have any new ones.

Chinese Food That is Very Saucy

Hello. C J here. I read a lot of cookbooks. This is done mostly for fun. I’m currently reading a short but really interesting book about traditional Chinese cooking. The book was written by an Indian author who has clearly researched Chinese food very well but some of the translations of recipes or concepts get a bit strange. I’m currently done the soups and starters section and am onto the section labelled ‘food that is saucy.’ Cool? Is it also savvy? There’s a surprisingly large amount of ketchup in the recipes. No I don’t think I want a recipe for hot and sour soup that is thickened ketchup water with vinegar and a bit of cabbage. No I also don’t want to take a slice of white wonderbread, roll it into a tube, stuff it with canned corn, deep fry it and then top it with sesame seeds. What in God’s name do they eat in China? And why is it specifically an image of white wonderbread? China? Are you okay? I managed to take out the vinegar, water and corn starch that makes up most of the h...

The Tunnels Under Haven

 Hello. C J here. Walking down the streets of Haven is not always as safe as the city would like people to think. Yes, they have curbed the banditry that plagues the Southern half of the Coastal Road. The Desert Princes whose cities dot the Southern coast of the Southern Continent if anything make the problem worse for themselves with their constant rivalries and politics. So no, a traveller in Haven or in the River Lands is unlikely to meet a bandit or other criminal sort. But then there’s the walking dead to consider. Many of the basements, catacombs and landmarks of Haven have old foundations from before the city had its current name. In ages long past it was one of two competing capitols for the Desert Empire, both of which unified under the first Sand King of the Gold Dynasty, the God-Lion. It was never his place of residence and both the other capitol and the rest of the Desert Empire are long since buried under the dunes. Well, people like to assume they’re buried. People wo...

Let's All Be Friends, No Really - Part Two

 Hello. C J here. I’ve updated my plans to make a Discord server for everyone here and on Facebook. Making a Discord server to my knowledge costs money. However, making a Facebook group does not. I’ve made a few of those over the years as well for various reasons. I’m going to look into this soon and then add the links here and in the menus here as well. I’m certain a Facebook group is what we need. I’m planning a number of chats within the group. So far my current plans are as follows. Art and Artwork Health and Wellness Food and Baking Magic and Spirituality Writing and Software NSFW I’m planning a private group but if I can get it open entry without a form or sign up page or anything. As for rules I’m going to reuse some from past of these I’ve done. Everyone is Welcome Be Polite Advertising is Allowed Follow the Content Ratings The Facebook group will take some planning but not any actual effort to build. It’s that simple. Thanks. C J Mcpherson
