What Interested Me Today 5

I have really slowed down a lot when it comes to writing for my website, and I want to change that soon

Today I was just watching some videos on YouTube and finally felt like I should do something a little more active on my computer, and decided to start typing this on a whim. Might as well share some of the stuff that interested me today!

Just writing

I am once again not writing that much recently. However, unlike other times, it’s not really that I don’t have time for it, I guess I just don’t feel like posting anything lately.

It’s not even that I don’t write, I have actually written two drafts that I somehow haven’t published, and I have also been writing on paper twice a week or so. For a while my blogging workflow was kind of messed up because my script to share my blogposts to Mastodon broke due to a misconfiguration of toot.

But yeah that’s not the true reason. When I have time I game, or read, or listen to podcasts and watch videos, I have time to spare, I guess I just haven’t been feeling it, until now.

Dungeon Crawlers for PSP, GBA or SNES

The thing that spawned this interest was actually this video that showcased a LotR game for GBA that played like Diablo. I have never played Diablo itself but the isometric view and gameplay looked kind of interesting and I wanted to see if there was more I could play on my PSP or my Anbernic handheld.

Reddit says that games that fit this style would be Baldur’s Gate Dark Alliance and Shining Soul I and II, for the PSP it seemed like there weren’t many “worthy” alternatives other than Dungeon Explorer and the PS1 Eboot of Diablo itself.

A Widescreen remaster of Avatar: The Last Airbender

This video titled The City of Omashu - Remastering Avatar The Last Airbender by ChunnyKay is exactly what the title says, this guy went ahead and filled in the left and right sides of the original 4:3 aspect ratio. The final result looks simply incredible and it was an enjoyable watch.

Readrops 2.0 beta finally out

This release on F-Droid caught me by complete surprise, but Readrops, my favorite RSS reader with FreshRSS support, finally got an update after being silent since 2021. I am supper happy for this, although I had to delete my app data and login again for it to launch.
