한편 극우 분파 중에는 "남자는 본인의 자식에게만 돌봄 의식을 느끼며 혈연이 없는 아동을 소유[sic]하려는 것은 착취의 의도가 다분하므로 그런 관계를 조장하는 '아빠놀이' 게임은 불건전하다(반대하면 페미니스트임)"이라는 논리로 비난을 표명하는 쪽도 있더라구요. 여러모로 대환장 파티입니다.

Two photos of a crafted Hoi game character plushie. The second photo features Hoi with a bow.
When my wife and I had just married, she crafted this Hoi plushie for me. 😊💚
As we married uhm… a 'few' years ago, the condition of the plushie has declined, but I thought it's fun to post here.
My wife wants me to emphasize that it was a quick prototype, not a finalized creation. 🙂
Yuki Izumi Everyone, thank you for gathering here today in spite of your poor mental health.

Every time I see a publisher say some stuff like "We've come up with new ways to integrate machine translation and typesetting to release comics faster! ^_^" I wonder if they realize that the problem with selling something that's identical to the pirate version is that the pirate one is free
inversion of the idle genre would be to make a game where you micromanage absolutely everything. it's a turn-based simulation game and if you don't instruct a character to breathe during their turn they just die

Thanks a lot for all the follows, everyone! I'm having soo much fun reading and viewing all the Moon Child love. 😊🙏
I'm also forwarding stuff to the other guys, including Ramon, our music composer.
Here are some pencil-on-paper concept sketches I made around the start of Moon Child development. 🙂
And poke, if you so wish.
It's been knocked out for a good few hours.

54% - That's the percentage of translators (out of 235 respondents) who only receive minimal or no reference material whatsoever for the games they're working on.
Remember that figure next time you read a translation that sounds off in context!

Types of plot setups in Touhou games
Type A: There is a problem.
Type B: There is a problem. In an attempt to solve the problem, somebody causes a second problem.
Type C: There honestly isn't a problem but something a little weird is going on and we're all kinda bored so let's fight about it
