Welcome to the Info Booth!
Site Info
Sizz Tuna’s Ocean of Something or Other:
- Was designed on a 1366x768 display
- Is tested primarily on Firefox
- Makes frequent use of JavaScript
- Attempts audio autoplay in a few Ocean pages (must be user-authorized first)
- Stores a handful of variables via local storage
If you see something that looks weird, please let me know and I’ll try to fix it! I’d like this site to be as accommodating of other setups as possible.
Local Storage
Local storage is a way to store site data, similar to cookies—unlike cookies, however, all this data is not sent to the server with every request. Either way, none of the data stored is collected in any manner or is visible to me in any manner.
It is worth noting that while cookies will expire after a certain amount of time, local storage doesn’t (session storage, on the other hand, which is utilized on a handful of pages on this site, auto-deletes once the tab is closed). You can still manually delete them via your browser’s privacy settings, but they will never self-destruct of their own accord. If you’d like to delete all data stored for this website, click the button below:
Site Navigation - The Corners Are Your Friends!
Many pages on this site feature a return arrow in the top left corner to send you back from whence you came—alternatively, there are a few pages with a little house icon there instead, which sends you straight back to the home page.
The top right corner is home to the Easy-Reader Mode button on applicable pages—pressing it changes the font from whatever zany thing I’ve set it to to something more easily legible, and back again if you change your mind. Below, you can choose which font you’d like it to set to (this setting will be saved to local storage):
(Psst... wanna hear a secret? Sometimes, it’ll look like there’s nothing in the corners... but there actually is! This is the case for pages like the music player (and articles!), where I wanted things to look sleeker while idling—simply hover your cursor over them, and they’ll show up!)
Swimming Lessons
Curious about the Ocean? Don’t worry, I promise swimming is super easy!
The Ocean is an exploratory environment in which hides a large portion of this website’s content. Click around, and see what strange sorts of pages you can find! Currently computer-exclusive (you can enter on mobile, but you probably won’t like it very much).
Exploration tips and tricks:
- Click, click, click! Some things you can click on are obvious, but others don’t have such clear indications. Keep a curious mind, or at least wiggle your mouse around a lot.
- Turn your audio on! The Ocean has music and various sound effects lurking in its corners. Enabling audio autoplay for this site will allow you to hear music on a few pages that your browser will block otherwise—I promise there are no jumpscares, but your autoplay preferences are up to you in any case.
- Don’t forget to take breaks and hydrate! Just, uh, don’t drink the Ocean. I need that.
- Respectfully, please try to refrain from inspecting the code. Doesn’t that ruin the mystique? Try to cheat your way to the Ocean’s secrets, and you may meet an unfortunate fate... you have been warned. If you’re curious about how I achieved a certain effect, just ask me!
Now what are you waiting for? The Ocean is your oyster!
Pages
What’s the deal with the main pages of this site, anyway?
- Music - branches off into the music player and music writing sections—the former is where you can listen to a variety of pieces I have composed, while in the latter, you can read my scribbled thoughts about a variety of music-related topics.
- Games - branches off into reviews and recommendations—the former features more formal evaluations of practically all the games I’ve finished since summer 2022, while the latter features more casual pages dedicated to one game each, essentially giving the pitch for why I think more people should play them.
- Gallery - a wide-ranging gallery of personal art and photography! Split into four categories, though some certainly get more love than others.
- Resources - a collection of materials I’ve found useful in my various artistic pursuits that I’ve found worthwhile to share.
- News - sometimes written updates regarding the site/my life (though I’d never call it a blog), though more often opinion pieces, a.k.a. random articles writing about whatever’s on my mind at the time. I hope they provide something insightful.
