ppl misunderstand me when I say "I want more [thing] in stories". I don't mean "I'm going to love every single one" I mean "I'm very picky and I want more of it in circulation so I can actually choose from a wealth of them and be discerning". I see ppl being like "you say you want more of [this thing] but you don't like [example of it]" YEAH CUZ I'M PICKY!!!!!!!! I have opinions and standards????? not all of them are gonna be the same I wanna be able to look at 100 of them and go "I want these 20" not "I only have 3 to choose from and I don't like any of them" you feel me??????

RPGs should assign tiers to quests the same way they do items. main story quests are Unique or Legendary. side quests are Rare. random procedural quests are marked Common/Junk

steam should let you click a "gift-wrap present" button when you gift a game so the recipient has to physically click and pull the wrapping paper away and you can pick between multiple papers and you have the option to triple-wrap it and make it extra annoying

what the fuck was going through ur mind when u implemented the grandmapocolypse

the funniest thing i can conceive of, the peak of comedy if you will, is when an old person does things that an old person wouldn't normally do ie. a grandma beatboxing or skateboarding or shapeshifting i think it is quite a laugh

do you like jaffa cakes? they're called cakes but they're they're more like cookies so i think they're my favorite cookie

these guys?

yeah they're sold as Pim's here and i love the raspberry ones a lot. like these are a hazard to my health i cannot be left around them

i've read about the legal case that got them classified as cakes for advantageous tax reasons, which i honestly think is complete bullshit: they certainly qualify as cookies according to the criteria list i developed for Cookie Clicker. apparently some classifier AI also categorized them as cakes in 2021 which is super bullshit.

anyway while the other cookies included in Cookie Clicker's box of brand biscuits upgrade have goofy modified names (Fig gluttons, Grease's cups etc) to circumvent trademarks, the term "jaffa cake" was never trademarked which means i get to include them as-is! yes the flavor text is a combo yogscast/carl sagan reference

my policy of not working on/starting other projects while i'm supposed to be doing something specific has been a terrible hit on my "making cool new things" output

Bing image creator outputs for the prompt "MS Paint 95 toolbar" featuring, worryingly, a non-zero amount of skulls

what are some games that fundamentally reject the notion of a gameplay loop? i'm thinking frog fractions gets pretty close

what are the panda koala biscuits based on and where can i acquire them

these guys!

Koala's March and Hello Panda! they're from Japan but you can find them in a lot of specialty shops depending where you live! i've had them and they're so nice but the portions are soooo tiny. i amended the designs a bit because no way am i conveying that much detail on a biscuit sprite 12 by 12 pixels across

Do you ever get annoyed by people mispronouncing orteil?

i get annoyed by anyone pronouncing my name. i've got better things to do than appearing in your bathroom mirror at midnight

the Berenstein/Berenstain Bears conspiracy is such a non-thing it's literally just the english language wiring your mental pathways to expect letters in a certain order in a certain context to such a degree that you'll form false memories over it. do you have any idea how many people come to my blog, look at my url and my username, and still call me Ortiel in messages

Do you actually like cookies?

god yes i do. not everyone gets to combine their passions with their work but my love for baked goods is 100% genuine. i bake them i eat them i'm eating them right now (petit beurres with blueberry jam)
