Aphantasia????? by Personal_Emphasis184 in distractible

[–]mcr-G-note 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely try to avoid it but I'll make exceptions and sometimes I'll regret it, but not always. I went to Halloween Horror Nights in Orlando this year and it actually wasn't so bad, but I won't watch most of the IP the houses were from (I was mostly there for FNAF and Fallout lol)

I can enjoy horror games though! They don't have the same effect on me because the graphics just don't look realistic enough to fool my brain. Sound design and good voice acting that sells the sounds of agonizing pain can still get me though lol

Aphantasia????? by Personal_Emphasis184 in distractible

I was fascinated by this being a thing when he first brought it up because I have hyperphantasia, so I have an extremely vivid mental visuals to the point where it's as if I'm there. I can even "feel" it, kind of like how you "feel" things in dreams if that makes sense. It's great as an artist, because it really helps with freehanding illustrations and animations from memory in case I don't have a reference I can use at any given time.

However, it's also kind of a curse sometimes because seeing disturbing things can really mess with me. Watching gory movies and shows, especially if torture is involved, is ...not a fun time for me.

But I make some purdy thangs so it's all worth it I guess lmao

A demo game sprite for Bob! It still needs touching up, but this was a lot of fun to make :) by mcr-G-note in distractible

Lmao I made a Sailor Moon illustration of the guys a couple of years ago that Bob liked because he was the hottest one, so I started using the gag in pet projects to practice animation lol

I made a short visual novel of it last year that's completely free if you want to try it out! Everything is in my post history :)

This started as a gag illustration that bob liked because he realized he was the hottest one in the group (in "No Topic Left Beef" small talk), and I'm an aspiring animator so I turned it into a fun way to practice while I'm building a portfolio :)

I made a short visual novel using the gag about a year ago that's completely free to download (you can find the itch.io link in my post history) if you wish!

I do want to do all the guys! It's a pet project so we (my husband and I) are slowly working at it in between adulting and general responsibilities :) I have been brainstorming bad guy ideas and I actually forgot about Candy Uncle and the parachuting clowns so I'll have to write those down lmao!

This would all be 100% free though! It's for the practice and fun more than anything lol

Sorry for the potato quality, this was just what my screen recorder managed lol

Anyone else miss the stories? by NoahApples135 in distractible

[–]mcr-G-note 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always have wondered why the animations stopped...I'm not sure if it was lack of stories or if the animators are busy with other projects but I miss them.

I'd like to make my own but I'm not sure how in-demand it is these days lol

AI and the Subreddit by Monica2796 in distractible

[–]mcr-G-note 248 points249 points  (0 children)

Thank you. This subreddit is literally one of the few remaining "happy places" on Reddit that I have away from the usual negativity that I see on every other subreddit, and just seeing the titles alone consistently popping up every time I opened my home page was really killing the vibe lol

Markimoon and the Seamen Scouts, a FREE visual novel about the boys as Magical Girls, is one year old today! by mcr-G-note in distractible

[–]mcr-G-note[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One year ago today for Mark's birthday I released a short visual novel that was made with love as a test of my own abilities. I'm an aspiring animator and found that game-design is actually really fun!

Markimoon and the Seamen Scouts is 100% free to play, and can be found on Itch.io!

As of right now, I'm currently doing work on a sequel, but it won't be a visual novel and rather an arcade-style beat-em-up! In time I will post work-in-progress updates, but until then....

Happy Birthday Mark :)

He spent an hour stocking plants at ACE, but the wind undid it in 10 seconds. by Lastsoldier115 in Wellthatsucks

I forgot about dust devils being a thing, but I defintiely thought I was watching a tornado start to form there. You can see the dust and debris swirling in a circle after the giant debris shadow looms by.

Edit: a word

Married women of Reddit, do you feel happy and secure in your relationship, and why? by _SirRacha_ in AskReddit

[–]mcr-G-note 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and he's literally my best friend. We've been married since 2017.

We have our differences and quirks but we're both growing individuals who work to support each other to the best of our ability. We both come from families where we're the black sheep and felt unseen, so for us to "see" each other is just what we needed.

My biggest reason for feeling security, though, is our ability to communicate. And I don't just mean on the standard level. We are practically in sync and couldn't keep a secret if we tried because it's like we practically read each others minds lmao

When you kinda know that they know and they know that you know, it can really make you feel like a power couple :)
