lovely

must not die

character customization is a big deal. it’s kind of a “d’uh” statement to make on such a ubiquitous fact. the avatar is an extension of the player… when the opportunity to customize is there, people will go all out. some couples will get matching dye, like spring dye, so their avatars will match. x3

well… this person has been playing the third iteration of diablo 3 just to attain something called lovely dye.


Named for the beauty of Queen Asylla, who once had a thousand gowns created in this beautiful pink color as a gift from King Leoric.

lovely dye is just a fancy name for a baby pink colored dye the player can use to dye their avatar’s equipment. during gdc i attended the visual keynote by blizzard’s christian lichtner and found out you can have a barbarian with baby pink gear. i made it a goal that day to make that happen. a couple of days ago, after a rather long bout with diablo, it did. thanks to brian for supplementing me with extra dye. i now have enough lovely dye to last me a couple of equipment changes. x3

so there he is. my smashingly lovely pink barbarian.

next goal?

ou est norman?

‘go away, norman’ will be part of joue le jeu at La Gaîté Lyrique in paris!

facebook event: meowton a whole town

if you are in paris this summer please check it out. there seems to be a lot of amazing things happening. :]

update

patterns are now available here.
i’ll be recycling more stuff so hopefully more additions will be made.
another addition that i would really like to add would be a selection of fonts. there’s a list in my head of things i’ve always wanted to put together and share… winamp skins… fonts… wordpress themes…

tomorrow a few of us who worked on ‘the universe within…’ will be participating in the nyc gaming demo night. i am no good in front of a large group of people so expect me to cower somewhere in a corner while the more… verbose members of the group speak.

there’s a harrowing fear that lives inside… constantly reminding me that i’ll never be able to do anything. it’s already summer and soon it’ll be fall… over and over…

small things


diablo 3 with brian. :]

- i’ve noticed that i have a number of small designs that were never put to use due to unforeseen circumstances like aborted projects, miscellaneous changes, and neglect. instead of just throwing them aside into a folder, never be used again, i’ve been making patterns. under a creative commons license, they will be free for personal use by anyone. once a set or two has been completed they wil be up on this site when ready [which should be some time this month].

- am i my own bottleneck?
- almost lost a lot of important data a couple of days ago
- in retrospect, i should have been a bit more rational
- quite embarrassed about it… •_______•
- have been playing diablo iii these past couple of days
- hurray for barbarians!
- being inside when weather is pleasant desolates my insides
- striving for quiet
