No, @hitagi@ani.social was correct, the post originally had a typo in it, which I fixed after I got corrected through an earlier comment, but the replies don't seem to federate properly 😅 Also yes, Taittsu seems to be an intentional pun on Twitter

Drew myself a simple new PFP (discuss.tchncs.de)

The character is based on my self-made PNGtuber model. It looks kinda derpy if you zoom it, but it will do

Supernatural Horror Otome 9 R.I.P. is released for Nintendo Switch

Story:

In this town, there is a long-standing rumor about people being spirited away… They also say that people with lots of anxiety or those who are struggling are more likely to get spirited away. You think you’ll be okay…?

In the beginning of autumn, during her second year of high school, that’s what Misa Isshiki, was told by her best friend, causing her heart to skip a beat.

I’ll be fine, I don’t really believe in any of that stuff anyway.

That’s right… She doesn’t believe in that kind of thing… It’s just… Her life had been filled with so much stress, all related to what her future would hold…

That’s when an eerie voice reached out to her…

Why don’t we take a look and see what you should do with your life!
Let’s put you on the right path…

And that’s when all the strange things around Misa began to happen…

Gamer Rule (discuss.tchncs.de)
[-] Berin@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 3 months ago

Favourite of the season: Oshi no Ko without competition, the animation quality and story were both amazing! There were some scenes that go so hard that I'm sure they're still going to be talked about for years.

Biggest disappointment: Tower of God S2. I really looked forward to this, but the story didn't pick up until the final two episodes of the first cour :/ The animation quality was also pretty mid. I'm still looking forward to the second half though..

Kinda meh: Elusive Samurai. At first, I got pulled in by the fantastic animation and interesting premise, but the follow-up didn't really live up to the initial hype. It's still entertaining to watch though, even if I think the way the protag is portrayed and treated by the cast is kinda...sus, sometimes

Synopsis: The year is 1995, and you're newly single and ready to mingle in Stradania, the dysfunctional micronation whose chief exports are pig iron, human misery, and radioactive souvenir mugs. Sample the nightlife, try a VR trip or two, and maybe even find love - just try not to get your organs stolen.

The co-writer and artist for this game is on fedi btw! If you're interested in this game, consider giving her a follow~

Hard Hat for Rule (discuss.tchncs.de)
[-] Berin@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 4 months ago

Yeah, the biggest problem with this approach is different moderation philosophies. You would have to set up a vetted set of approved non-problematic instances. I've read several accounts of people who tried out fedi and left soon after, and nothing sours the newcomer experience more than unknowingly joining an instance with a toxic community/moderators

Achievement unlocked: "The void has shouted back"!

!renpy@discuss.tchncs.de got its first thread and comments by someone who is not me \o/

!gamejams@programming.dev has been chugging along nicely as well. There have been several new threads by other users since I took over as a mod 🎉

[-] Berin@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 4 months ago

Thank you, for not focusing on my apparently unfortunate choice of an image and reading the post. 🙏 This has serious implications for indie game marketing. The author mentioned at the end that his next blog post is going to be about alternative techniques to cross-promote. I'm very curious what he'll come up with!

[-] Berin@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 5 months ago

she's adorable!

[-] Berin@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Loved this episode! It was so heartwarming to see how the conflict between abiko and GOA was resolved, but then they dumped us right into ice water with aquas ptsd induced panic attack :,)

[-] Berin@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

!renpy@discuss.tchncs.de already has 21 subscribers after just one day🎉 I'm currently planning what kind of posts I could create for it to keep it active while the community is still forming. Once it has a few more posts, I will start promoting it in vn-developer discords as well. The people on there are still a bit unsure about the fediverse in general though.

In the long run, I'd like to create more Lemmy alternatives for existing gamedev/vndev-related subreddits that are still missing on here, but I think I'll take it slow for now
