I’d only ever use “sike” in a slang/informal context like here, and understand it came from “psych out”. But I have almost never seen it spelled as “psych” in this kind of context. Your comment is making me wonder which one is correct now, if “sike” is a super common mistake or if it has taken over enough to become correct on its own in informal contexts. The Merriam-Webster dictionary does not list this usage and dictionary.com says it’s a less-common spelling variant so I am inclined to go with you being correct, and me having come from a background that uses “sike” more frequently than most would.

for other people wondering what a himation is

As a certified magic lover, I hope to see you succeed.

Hope Baba is Hint helps you. I did not get it with these hints, but maybe you will.

Still Antimatter Dimensions, though not paying too much attention to it. I pop in and out of Baba Is You after solving (or failing to solve) a few levels. Still not sure how to break Baba and Keke out of jail.

Either

I would watch this on YouTube.

Still trucking on the !incremental_games@incremental.social with Antimatter Dimensions, lovely unfolding mechanics, would probably appeal to completionists because getting achievements actually gets you in-game bonuses. Also have been playing the Zachtronics puzzle programming/electrical engineering game Shenzhen I/O that could make a person a bit more comfortable with in real life assembly languages. Can’t figure how to bust out of prison in Baba Is You.

+1 for FOSS game. Is the little Linux penguin a racer in the game?

It is something I have always been undecided about. The whole spell creation thing sounds like something I’d love, but I’ve heard the game can be frustrating, and aside from !hades@lemmy.zip roguelikes are not my thing. I should probably see if it has a demo or watch some early gameplay…

To me, it’s a game. I get some people might not think so because the game is all menus and numbers, with minimal other graphics (not counting achievement backgrounds). But for me, it’s fun. A lot of people like these number go up games where the mechanics are about increasing the numbers fast without much other intermittent gameplay. !incremental_games@incremental.social. It’s a whole genre. https://paperpilot.dev/garden/guide-to-incrementals/defining-the-genre/ might have some discussion on whether it’s a game or not, I forget, but it sure is a nice read about incrementals.

Also, there’s more, but it does take time to unfold.

Antimatter Dimensions. Free, I have 1,000+ hours. Incremental/idle game though.

Nope, fun fact relevant to the hypothetical Pokémon Pink version, with a Jigglypuff, as proposed by the craft. I am glad you posted it for us!

Was going to ask how you got the lettering done, glad I read the comments first. Nice job!

No, but thanks for trying!

Hey thanks for crossposting here!

!crpg@lemmy.world might also be interested in this.

porkyman superfans

You do realize this is on !pokemon@lemm.ee, a place full of people who enjoy the series. Also, people who are not superfans do enjoy pixel art.

It’s fine to have your differing perspective but I’m picking up a lot more “fucking fans, they ruin everything and all their dissent, especially preference of anything present in older games, is bad” and less from actually preferring a different art direction than the pixel art from the older series, and preferring the direction of the newer games.

Thanks, fixed.

Thank you! Now that I think of it I probably should have just said “I can’t see the image” instead of uploading an image of the “can’t see image” icon…
