My copy of the Ion Heart rpg just arrived at my doorstep! The production value, artwork, and general coziness rival those of Koriko, which is very high praise. It even includes a cloth map and a dice tray, as well as a notebook and a stack of character sheets. I think I know what I'll be doing over the Christmas break.

I just got the pdfs for the Ion Heart solo RPG in my mailbox! It looks so pretty (the colors remind me of #Koriko?) and I'm in love with the concept of a lo-fi rpg. I'll probably wait to play it until I get the physical copy, though.

Lesser known facts about Koriko, the city in Kiki's Delivery Service:
* Only kept the trams on the big avenue going up to City Hall Square, the rest got replaced with buses.
* Built several concrete towers/slabs in a park(ing lot) suburbs, like other European cities.
* Now has commuter rail coming from both directions to the isthmus, connecting tunnel under the old town still debated.
* Host of the 1985 Eurovision Song Contest

Back in 2022, I backed Koriko: A Magical Year, a solo role-playing journalling game by Jack Harrison (Mousehole Press). It arrived in the mail today, so I immediately put aside all the actually important tasks I had to do to sit down and play the first chapter.

My hard copy of #Koriko finally came - happy early birthday to me!

This was a busy week for me, with moments stolen away for the fediverse and closing with a visit to my aunt’s home in Hilden for her 80th birthday celebration.

I’ve been rereading the first three of Robert Asprin ‘s Myth Adventures novels this month. The puns hurt, and there are awkward choices all over these stories, but there’s something charming too. I think Phil Foglio’s comics and cover illustrations left a lasting positive framing of the series for me.

Floor 21 of this Paper App Dungeon was a breeze because of good rolls.

I enjoyed smelling some lilacs during my lunch break today.

Floor 22 of the Paper App Dungeon was fruitful.

Today’s floor (23) of Paper App Dungeon was mostly uneventful.

I just learned that Godzilla: Skate or Die exists.

Today’s Paper App Dungeon Floor (24) was brutal. The enemies were positioned so that it would have been impossible to survive if I didn’t start the floor with full health. As it was, I lucked out on my rolls and made it through.

Flying Together, the multiplayer (epistolary play) addition for Koriko, has been released.

Anyone interested in having our witches set out from the same place and write letters to each other as they each discover their own new city?

This cover of the ending theme from the first Xenoblade Chronicles game is fantastic.

I didn’t catch it when it was first released earlier this year, but this week I’ve been enjoying Pixel Mixers’ Xenoblade Chronicles: Chain Attack, an album of covers from the soundtrack of the first Xenoblade game.

I’m heading out to my aunt’s birthday celebration and we stopped at Mastodon Ridge. Even in the rain, I had to snap a shot of the mastodon statue.

I installed a new ink cartridge today and it came with these surprise sweet chameleon paperclips.

I haven’t been to a truck stop in a long while, but I definitely didn’t expect to spot a Junji Ito t-shirt there. Are truckers really into weird horror manga now?
