Axolotl Online - Volume 2
Hey again Pal! Great to see you.
I hope you've been well. I don't have much to preface so why don't we move right along?

I've got a little bit to speak of here, so listen up!
I've been working on and off on a little community website, not unlike that of melonland but written in Lua, using the Lapis library by Leafo (the same Leafo who made itch.io). I haven't got a whole lot visually to show you, but I've got a basic account system and some other stuff all made, with more coming soon.
I've also been working on a blog system with the same library, as I am currently unable to blog since my computer doesn't wanna install Jekyll (site generator) and I was curious, though I'm starting to regret this as I keep getting post ideas I can't talk about and have to jot them down for later.
Games-wise I've been working on a game for my computer science class. My final project is a first person puzzle game similar to Antichamber visual-wise. It's currently pretty bare, but who knows. Maybe once it's finished for class in a few days I'll keep working on it and submit it to Cool Math Games... or something.
Lastly, I've been working on some write-ups (game design document and that) on a new Rocket Bytes game for desktop featuring more colour, dialogue from rockets, and a slightly deeper story that I'll work more on over the summer. More on that... ..whenever....
This whenever the game is... Ꙩ!!!
'Tis a fun lil game made in a shockingly short amount of time for what it is, and reminds me vaguely of the game Temp Zero which is also pretty cool.
That ripple effect is also NICE.
I've lately been trying to work with more privacy focused and local tools, as opposed to web-based Google tools (the polar opposite of private). I've been trying some markdown text editors and actually found Deepdwn to be pretty nice, though if you want something free Ghostwriter by KDE is also nice. I've also been trying Proton Docs which is a pretty good online editor, though I wish it was able to display it in a page-based format cause if I try to export a PDF it takes the full long page and cuts it arbitrarily, sometimes slicing text horizontally through the middle.
I want to write a blog post about this stuff but I can't so I left it here for you. I might actually try some site generators out, so if you have any suggestions PLEASE REACH OUT PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE-
Haven't got much more on my mind to write about this very moment but I'm sure I'll send this out and then think of something else I should have mentioned. Regardless, if you've got any thoughts or anything, please feel free to reach out or find me on the internet. Goobye!
