Hello Pal, and happy [time of year]!
I hope you've been well. I don't have much to preface so why don't we move right along?

First up: Project Updates!
I'll be honest, the past few months have been PRETTY ROUGH overall, but I'm really glad to be working on stuff once again such as...
I released a new video just today following the creation of my game Fishball which you can go and watch now! This video took me a little while due to the amount of school I've had to do, but I'm glad to have finally finished and released it. Click this thumbnail here to watch!
I also hosted the 7th PlayJam, a game jam specifically for making Playdate gameswith the theme "moon," and it's got some pretty cool entries! Voting ends tomorrow so I can't wait to see who wins.
Lastly for the project updates, I've been working on some internet webby stuff. First thing was reorganizing my website a bit, to which I still need to do a bit more (I want to add a section similar to AVQ's T.I.E.R page, a website is never truly finished), and I started coding a website backend in Lua with Leafo's Lapis. This is the same software that itch.io is built with, and it's actually also developed by the same person who made itch (Leafo). If you're curious, you can look through my code here and point out all my security vulnerabilities :P.
As this mailing list gets sent out once every whenever I thought it could be fun to feature a neat webgame, whenever whenever may be.
This whenever the webgame is:

BIG EPILEPSY WARNING. JUST IMMEDIATELY. That much may be implicit looking at the screenshot above tho...
It's an arcadey endless game where you fly around hacking and avoiding obstacles. I've actually made something kind of similar a long while ago but it used the mouse to move and was not quite as fun to look at. I am not very good at this game... but that's ok! It's very pretty and the really cool music adds to the weird surreal-ness of it.
If you have games I should check out for next whenever, please let me know! me@possiblyaxolotl.com
I haven't got too many more segments for this newsletter, but as I come up with more I'll be sure to include them! (or if you've got any fun ideas :D). That's all from me for now, and I'll see you next whenever for whatever this is.. uhh. gbye~!
