You should draw what you mean to communicate across boundaries. It's such a universal language.

I collect small, ugly dinosaur toys. The cheaper the better. There's something about the malformed kitsch which has so much soul. There is an element of the element of the element of truth about the form. They are the Picasso's blue period of manufacturing.

Landscapes are all bones that want to be cubes, and they will not apologise.

Omg tell me about it, it's like someone found a git repo for a common chip that goes into a simple tamagotchi and then found a zip of 1bit sprites haha

You know it's the trash one when it says "100+ creatures". I got one. They have three kinds of boats and five jets, and they don't do anything.

Everdrive is the one for flash carts. I haven't had any errors with logic, tearing or scanlines which I didn't deserve - so you should be fine on that front.
The only other thing to mention is that GBC has a big problem with oranges and yellows.

I've found gbstudio games vary across different emulation and hardware both in colours and in sound - not to mention the hardware screen replacements. I've got a good testing batch so if you want anything testing just let me know.

They're always cool bugs, but the photos are a 1/3 chance of being blurred. That's a really cool katydid. I hear the name "KatyDid" is short for KathleenAchievement.

Have you heard of those species that have a completely different creature between each generation? I'm struggling to think of examples right now but I imagine that would impose an interesting generational gap.

Isn't it gorgeous? A real sitting in bed on a rainy day filling with inspiration type read.

Wow, thanks for that. I ought to look into the programming before I invest in more hardware. There's got to be an emulator, right?

Yes. Meanwhile a lot of cheap labour is coming from countries where living costs are lower or teens in basements. It's a very complicated tangled mess of global homogenisation, and there is no real individual to blame. My personal solution is to encourage new freelancers to know their worth.

Trying to decide if you can afford to take a sick day as a freelancer really is the pits of the work.
