more work on README! spent a while scrolling through old event photos and scrubbing through Hack Club videos to make this little Polaroid collage thingy for README's homepage. also made some CSS fixes and wrote some more content.

[days 6 and 7 😭 /50 of daily making till 2025 ends]

[day 4/50 of daily making until 2025 ends]

procrastinated a ton today, but I did manage to rewrite tanuki's kk slider code to make it less buggy! also started a readme and set some things up for release! here it is with the default (😭) tray icon...

[day 3/50 of making stuff daily until 2025 ends]

still sick, but I did manage to add K.K. Slider songs to tanuki! you can now select the "k.k. slider" game, and you'll get a new button allowing you to skip a song. there's also a new "random" game option!

[day 2/50 of making stuff every day till the end of the year]

since i'm sick I didn't get much done today but I did figure out how to get tanuki to save the selected game! i used tauri's store plugin, but had to do some workarounds since async doesn't play nice with svelte $effect.

i am making a godot game, and have not used print() yet. i consider this a good sign.

had an idea: "twitter, but every character costs one cent"

turns out stripe is really annoying to set up so instead of paying real money you do jumping jacks. yes, really.

@hex4.xyz and InfiniteDiamond have secretly been pouring hours of our life into a new game.

it's a very serious adventure platformer about an adventurous little adventurer that adventures through the mystical lands of Slimetopia.
