just another reason why i wish we had a kind of event viewer in XCXDE

(this is NOT an invitation to discuss *why* it doesn't have one)

like i do think it's harmful to talk myself down on this kind of stuff. i'm just going thru it

like i don't want this to be my identity and it totally would be if i posted about on main where i'm probably expected to post about Proper professional stuff and music shop talk only

and that is why i have this account for special interests and very rarely post about it on main because i'm sure that's not what ppl followed me for and that it would get overly obnoxious. i mean even on this account i'm holding back considerably lol

i should unpin this because i don't play anymore, but i'm proud of this and will be sad to disappear down the timeline. that said it's mostly me who appreciates it being there. and well, i gotta move on

there are a few other early songs from CC as well! Star Stealing Girl, Viper Manor. the leitmotif from the title "Summer Day" gets reused in "Dream of the Shore Near Another World" www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DvV...

the battle theme is actually an earlier arrange of Gale which ended up being Chrono Cross's main battle theme www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fQG... i think the kick being only on the start of each measure might make it a little easier to follow its time signature vs. the CC version. i like both though

it's not heavy on music, and has mostly some light foley ambience outside of battle themes during exploration and music for dramatic passages.

i thought about making a VN engine presented in this way with the continuous prose kind of narrative and combat system it has. i would need to get someone who can actually write lol. i suppose you could implement something close enough to this in TWINE with some fancy javascript/css
