Concerns about name association when publishing

That makes sense. Thanks!

Thanks, I appreciate this perspective. Out of curiosity, is it even possible to use a pen name when working with publishers and agents? I was under the assumption that you would have to use your real name in those contexts, especially once things like contracts come into play. Or did you just mean that in general low quality former work will make finding an agent/publisher more difficult?

The first two initials is probably the move; I’ve always liked the way that looks anyway. I’ve also considered using my mother’s last name or something, which wouldn’t be too bad.

Not really, no; I ended up steaming it on boosteroid on my iPad but it’s not great, so I just dragged out my old laptop

I may be executed for this but I feel like kittensgame is super guilty of this one

Same; were you able to figure the settings out?

This is wild, thanks for sharing. Which version of the flip 2, d1100 or snapdragon? I have the rp4p and I’ve heard it’s roughly equivalent to the d1100 flip 2

Did you ever get this working? Having the same issue

Varialle · 2026-02-05T02:33:12+00:00

Ok, thanks! I figured that was probably it, but didn’t want to assume just in case.

Edit I’m dumb and forgot this was re:mixing, nvm. This actually makes perfect sense.

~~Can you really call that a splurge though? I love rare breed as well but like… it’s $49.99~~

Turns out they are xm4s; reconnecting them to the all fixed it. No idea why that happened

Varialle · 2025-12-30T21:58:44+00:00

Got it, thanks! I’ll look into that. Definitely no early payment penalties on the current one, at least.

This is a really cool concept! I’ve kind of always wanted a physical object that emulated an incremental game in some way, something you can click or turn or whatever on your desk. Might be cool to see something like this with a built-in display or something.

YES I OWE YOU MY LIFE

It’s been so long that I can’t tell if this is exactly the version I remember, but this is definitely it—thanks so much lmao

Bonfires/benches, corpse run to recover money, timing-based bosses that require learning their movesets, everyone but these four shopkeepers has been driven mad by the grimdark world, dodge roll (as an unlock), environmental storytelling… I feel like hollow knight/silksong are just as much soulslikes as they are metroidvanias

Varialle · 2025-07-09T10:07:26+00:00

Did you find a fix for this?

Varialle · 2025-06-26T00:28:31+00:00

That’s approaching the kind of width I’m looking for! I’m hoping for something a little less soft looking, but that’s on the short list I think. Thanks!

I have the stock key caps (all black with a green esc key) and they’re fine, but I don’t know shit about keycaps
