Heyo! On the off-chance that anyone is still following this account… I have an announcement to make! I’m making a game! It focuses heavily on story, deep character interaction, and themes of mortality, immortality, and the passing nature of things. It also miiiight have some connections all the way back to things on this blog! I am a little over 1 year into dev work, and have finally…
So this is an introduction of the pre-alpha version of the conversation engine! There’s a decent amount going on here under the hood that I will get into more in future posts. I want to start off with a basic explanation of what I’m going for with this engine. Most games with strong roleplay elements depend on the player listening to long, unprompted dialogue from characters. You walk…
Heyo. Anybody still around here? Blowing off some cobwebs. So. I am working on a new project again. Some folks here might already be aware, but I’m working on a game that I hope to finish within 2-3 years from now. I will be posting more here about it once I get back into the social media groove. I am not quite at the stage where I’m ready to start pitching the project to…
Heyo, everyone! If you’re reading this, you get a free book! Hooray! No, seriously. I just finished my companion book for the Tarot deck that Karen and I were working on for so long, and I’m putting it out there for anyone who cares to read it! It took quite a bit of work and editing, and I’m sure that it’s not perfect, but it’s gotten to a point where I had to draw a…
Note: Ok… continuing issues with Wordpress, but please bear with me. This link should be good. https://askakukun.wordpress.com/2018/12/18/do-you-have-a-new-years-celebration-or-a-midwinter-festival-those-are-very-common-on-earth/
For anyone wondering why the last two posts that went to wordpress were broken, that was my own misunderstanding of how the platform functioned. The links are now fixed, and I’m dropping both of them again here. Thanks for the patience as I get everything working correctly over on the new platform! 1) INTRO POST 2) How does your society treat pornography?
Heyo! Again, I’ve migrated to Wordpress at this point, but will continue to post links to that at least for now. If anyone has thoughts/concerns, please send a message or ask! LINK TO POST
So. Tumblr is getting a revamp soon in which it will gut itself and spill its insides on the ground, hopefully making it more healthy. I am not a doctor, so I suppose I’m not qualified to guess whether this will make the site a better place to be. However. I am going to be experimentally moving to http://askakukun.wordpress.com to try to address this. I don’t know whether this will be permanent or…
Heyo! A reminder to folks that I am at Midwest Furfest this week! If you’re here, come see me at G5 in the Dealer’s Den! Sitting at Karen’s table, who generously offered to share. ^^
Heyo, all! Draque here with a tarot and convention announcement. I’ll be headed to MFF and will be sharing a table with Karen! We will have the first of the decks there and be doing free readings! If anyone reading this hits Chicago for it, please swing by and let me do lay some cards down for you!
The writer agreed that this was very sad, but I don’t really have much perspective into why. I guess it’s pretty good to eat? We have a number of fatty curds that are cultured and spreadable that sound pretty similar to what you’re describing. I have to admit though. Hearing the writer talk about pizza, they really sell the idea. Our loss, I guess!
… I am completely calm when it’s appropriate to be. Sometimes people think they can get away with pushing me around or bullying just because I’m young and I have to put them in their place. But I never do that when it’s inappropriate. And how am I supposed to know that someone founded an entire region dozens of lives back? They wanted me to basically give away half my business! It shouldn’t matter…
Ok, I am not some kind of plant worshipping hippie like my parent or anything. I know they aren’t scientific, and I know that you can’t depend on them. But you have to admit that they are pretty accurate sometimes, especially if you are getting your fortune or signs read by someone who knows what they’re doing. So I know it’s not science. But sometimes other things can be real too. Just because…
I don’t buy into any of this astrology nonsense, obviously. But knowing it is more or less mandatory when dating, so I do pay the bare minimum of attention. I was born under Noreng with Lofsing and Rede Kufku in retrograde. That supposedly means all kinds of things about my elemental affinities and personality. It means a positive connection with Wind, Noreng’s element, and traits like education,…
Hi. This is Draque, the real-world person who maintains this story blog. I don’t normally post much of anything here that doesn’t have to do with the world of Darisa. Today is an exception, so I’ll keep it brief. I’m queer. That’s a big motivation for me in writing what I do here. The current administration of the US government and the party which supports it is making it clear that in…
Toys specifically made for children? We don’t really have anything at all that’s made for children… When I was raising Vialio and they were very young, they just broke anything that you handed them. It was pretty infuriating, but when I talked to other parents (including my own), they all seemed to agree that’s just how kids are. The best things that I found were stuffed cloth toys. The kind that…
