It’s all in the title. Something big is coming, mark my words. Are you ready for it? Or are you nothing but a worm in its presence?
Ahem. I’ve been working on the site update of a lifetime (more specifically, sizztuna.neocities.org’s lifetime). It may not look like it, because I finally downloaded Microsoft Visual Studio Code for the first time since 2019 (wow, it looks different! I guess six years will do that), and so am finally editing my site somewhere that isn’t the Neocities editor. It’s a better environment to be doing a site overhaul in—I can more easily organize files in a wider scope and I no longer ever have to play “find the missing semicolon” because I actually get a little warning for it now. This is revolutionary. I will be unstoppable. Nothing quite like opening an old HTML file and seeing three errors from typos you never noticed.
This is all to say that I’m really excited for what’s been cooking up. You’ll have to stay tuned! Or stay tun...a’ed? (Sorry.) If you want a sneak pe(e/a)k at anything in particular, the one thing I have released publicly so far is daily picross NOW. Much like this article’s title, it’s all in the name. Don’t know what Picross is? Don’t worry, there’s a handy little “how to play” button! This is the most programmatically rigorous page I’ve made for this website, and despite sometimes being torture, was fun to make. There’s currently 25 levels of Picross action waiting for you—please consider checking it out!
Why write a news article about a big update that’s not even finished, though? If I did this for every half-completed project, there would be a million articles here. Well, it also happens to be July, and you know what that means. Art Fight! Hooray! I’m participating this year again and have tried to spread the gospel (“it’s this, like, art trading game and it’s fun and you should do it please please please but no pressure you don’t have to if you don’t want but please”). Here’s
my profile on the off chance any lovely reader wants to beat me to death. I’d certainly welcome it.
Uh oh, my true colors have been revealed. I’m a shiller. All I do is shill. I better run before they get to me. I don’t have much time—listen to my final message: you must eat something yummy today. Do it for me. Okay bye.
“DIE, DIE, DIE!”
