Starting today I will be posting a new series of games entitled #A9A9A9. I plan to post entries in this series semi-regularly over the course of the next week or two.

I will update this blog post as I submit these games to collect them in one space and maybe to talk about them. For now I will just post the games on their own.

#1: Unity 2019.3.0a10 Personal
#2: Unreal Engine 4.16.3
#3: Godot v3.1.1
#4: Processing 3.5.3
#4.07: Keeshond Game Engine 0.7-dev (Guest submission by Danni)
#5: RPG Maker 2003 (Steam Version)
#6: Clickteam Fusion 2.5
#7: RPG Maker VX Ace

Note: Some of the games in this series will only be able to run on certain operating systems. Why this is necessary will become more evident as the series progresses.

I am too distressed to work on games... that much I say. Distressed by wrongdoings of others... and the likes.

one of the things that scared me off of making games for the longest time was the existential horror of using a game engine. like either you code one yourself and get balls-deep in the nasty, unwashed hobo asshole that is the nitty-gritty of coding, or you take someone else's engine and you have to learn all the weird bullshit that I SWEAR IS GONNA MAKE THINGS SO MUCH EASIER. i read the docs and i still have no idea how anything in godot works, dont tell me that shit's beginner-friendly.

so anyways i flip-flopped between "im gonna learn my own engine!" and "im gonna use this bullshit engine!" for basically my entire life, making no progress on any endeavors

So eventually I gave up and decided I'd just make a virtual space in hypertext. It wasn't exactly a game, because you couldn't really interact with it, but HTML meant that, for what I was doing, I wouldn't have to either learn arcane secrets or reinvent the wheel. Then I did something silly but really important: I made it so that, every so often, you'd have to sleep, which'd redirect you to a page then you'd just click back to it. Here's the code that handles it. The "Cookies" object is from js.cookie, a simple javascript cookie library.
var stamina = 16;
...
sleepiness = Number(Cookies.get("sleepiness"));
if (sleepiness < stamina) {
Cookies.set("sleepiness", sleepiness + 1);
} else {
Cookies.set("sleepiness", 0);
document.location.assign("sleep.html");
}
This code was packaged in game.js, which was included in every HTML file, so it ran every time the player changed scene. This was when I started to realize that the web browser was secretly a game engine. The DOM is a really powerful UI library, I could use cookies to manage state, and if you include a javascript file in every page, you've created a game loop. Hypertext itself is in charge of loading/unloading assets and logic, and provides them with a convenient scope, and you can use cookies for transferring data between local and global scope. These technologies are already there without any added programming, and they're really easy to interface with.

ok so the end result is actually pretty fuckin basic but gimme a break will ya?? this is my first time making any game or any of html/css/javascript, so i'm pretty proud of it nonetheless so play it here

I've started a few things this year that I haven't finished yet cause they got too big. I'm gonna finish 'em though. I did promise I was gonna bring "the juice" this year and ooh boy things are looking juicy

I've unleashed 7 HITS upon you this year and I'm not even half done

It's been 10 years since I joined this wonderful site! I'll be posting a much-delayed game shortly to celebrate. In fact, it's the one I alluded to in my 5 year anniversary post. Let's see if I fare better this time!

Modern handbags have now become one of the most relevant items for a woman to have so that she can ace any sort of look on every occasion and look as elegant as possible. You can also spot a lot of celebrities who carry different types of trendy handbags and it effortlessly makes them look more attractive and appealing. This is the immense popularity of these bags that now a majority of people are looking for the most classy looking one at an affordable rate.

This is where a virtual store comes into the picture as with the help of a reliable online portal, you can easily get the best looking Modern handbags without any hassle. All you need to do is just click some buttons on your Smartphone and the most desired item will be delivered at your doorstep within the specified time limit. In case you do not get the product on time or have any difficulty in terms of online payment, do not hesitate in contacting the customer service department. They are at your service round the clock and offer you efficient solutions to all your problems.

There is a reason why people of every age group are more likely to Buy designer handbags from a website rather than purchasing the same through physical stores as they are provided with a vast range of good-quality products. It is also suggested to take a look at the previous customer reviews and rating as well.

for a year now, i've been recommending games and other media(most recent example here link

so, for the winter season (dec 21-mar 20) i'm basically doing a review of the stuff i want to recommend from the season, just like how magazines or websites do a year-in-review thing. since we've just started spring, i'm also doing a 'preview' of spring, whatever that means.

so this is here to see if anybody wants to contribute anything to it.

for more context, here's what i think i will be putting in:
-some select recommendations, basically the things i recommend the most. probably separated into games / music / books
-a complete list of the games / music / books i consumed and still recommend
-there are some games/music/books i will only play in winter, regardless if they take place in winter or not. i will talk about that
-same as above, but for spring
-some art i made, maybe
-maybe a list of ideas
-maybe a personal essay or something

it can be anything, really, though i'd prefer it to be safe for work. i want to be able to show this to my mom basically.
if you want to contribute but don't know what, maybe make a list of your favourite games you only play in winter and/or spring? or maybe i'm the only one who makes those self-restrictions? lol
so you can send me stuff and i can put it in, or you can even create and design your own page and i'll put it in.

although i have no plans to print this, i will be creating this @ 300dpi. rgb colourspace. and us letter size (8.5" x 11"). just in case someone wants to print it. i'm using indesign cs6 for now.

since i'm using other people's work, i'm not going to monetize it, it's all for fun and for the purpose of getting really cool stuff out there!

would be great to have everything by wed mar 27, hopefully this will be done by mar 30.
