Scilly shrew – dweller of the abandoned garden

Scilly shrew. It is such a small creature. As a shrew. As a little mouse. Such kind. And, also, good and kind. It does not make a passages underground. And, use what exists, already. Easily, it can live near in a garden nearby. Or, in the field. Lots of places, where this little animal can live.

New arrival – new plants

April is going to its end right now. It is time to do things about seedling. To put different in containers. To have everything grow. And be stronger. And, in the end of May, to go to countryside – already, to put in seedbeds! So, this is third, already. New arrival with plants. My green friends.

the simplicity of zone gimmicks in hyperrogue (relative to the premise of hyperrogue) leads to some of the most brutally funny straightforwardly-presented concepts I've ever seen in a roguelike

I still lose it every time I think about how the gimmick of the land of eternal motion is "the ground falls away one turn after you step on it, so only one type of dog that runs for literally their entire life from birth until death can successfully populate this one"

at first it seems like the ice wolves are tracking you in the icy land, making it a zone with two types of standard pursuit enemies, but they aren't: you're just generating heat. so the longer you stay in one place, the more you're swarmed by ice wolves who want to stand on the warmest tile in the zone, which is probably you

completing the game (by the closest approximation of what could be considered victory conditions) requires several instances of precise backtracking. to make this easier, you can use certain items to breadcrumb. to make this harder, the game takes place on a hyperbolic plane

when you go to grab the best orb in the game, it tells you to go grab a key 100 tiles away, then walk back to it

one thing about tumblr at least here they’re just called “posts”. Saying “I saw this tweet/reel/tiktok/short” makes me feel like I’m ordering at a restaurant where they make you say Texas Tom’s Nut-Slappin Griddle-Chizzle instead of grilled cheese
