  1. I must be very funny or nice or something because I am 11 months in and I have somehow accumulated 29 followers, Including @Triop who I look up to for crazy Kerbin-based awesomeness, and @adsii1970 who is a Moderator! I cannot thank you guys enough, so in return for your kindness I give you a probably-not-sufficient-for-this-kind-of-thing-but-the-best-thing-I-can-give-for-you group of Photoshop drawings! rthITvV.jpg

  11. Daily music (mostly VGM since I sacrificed some sanity to become gamer) I might just call this “Daily VGM” if I get tired of typing this long-ass title #1: Rainy Edition.

    It’s cloudy and depressing outside where I live and it will likely rain tonight. Here’s some music. I really dunno.

    Spoiler

    I still don’t get why the vocals play even when you’ve siphoned the soul of the lady singing but whatever. It probably would have made Christopher Larkin go bananas to get it to game quality. I mean If you’re like me and just prefer the latter half of the song, then you don’t hear it much, so it’s effectively the same as what could have happened when you siphoned the soul of the lady singing. I should shut up.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VR6TDTSqWDY

    I mean c’mon, it’s in the title. (Well the song is called 3 things, Loose Rain, Lose Rain or Ruse Rain. Your guess is as good as mine.) The beginning is more calm sprinkling and quickly swells to a blustery storm, with all hell breaking loose around 1:40, possibly due to a huge tornado touching down. I mean the stage this appears in is much simpler than this explanation. Not like I’m going to deny that a tornado would touch down in Gensokyo (damn wind youkai) but whatever.

    Haha!

    You have been fooled!

    You thought you I would only include VGM?

    Too bad. Have some Beethoven. 

    Dark night rain is dark. 

    In all seriousness, this song is dark and depressing in the best possible way. I know rain isn’t the first thing one thinks when listening to this song (maybe) but I felt it.

     

     

     

     

    Next edition will include more songs, I can promise you. Cheers to anyone who listened to all 3 of these in their entirety, you get an internet bag of chisps chips

  12. Daily VGM(I’m serious) #3: Awesome final boss themes, part 1 (part 2 will come a bit later)

    (things I have already posted in stuck in head songs within the last 3 months are exempt)

    Oh yeah there will be a lot of Touhou here since there are like 35 final/extra boss themes to choose from

    I’ll shut up.

    Spoiler

    Just wait for a few (12) seconds until the synth kicks in. You’ll thank me. From there is the actual Reach for the Moon, Immortal Smoke. I just love the climb throughout the song to include all of the instruments, the piano, the violin, the drums, the synth, the xylophone, the trumpet, with the latter being exclusively when all of the other instruments are present. You know what, just skip to 2:00 and be pleased. Oh yeah, and for the most attentive of you all who say “this is the extra boss, not final boss theme” Thank you. I have my my methods.

    Everyone has heard this song, so I won’t go to much into detail. I find this to be the most epic and satisfying of the final boss themes, neutral is too chaotic, genocide is too mainstream (as if anything related to Undertale wouldn’t be mainstream) and the fact that fulfilling everything to get to this point of the true pacifist route is really painful since you can’t earn levels.

    [slow clap] is all I have to say about this. best Bowser theme IMO (feel free to disagree)

    I was held at third leg-point by the lady who owns this theme to put it here, so I’ll say something fitting and move on. The intro rocks. It puts off a “end of the world” vibe (which will happen if you let this birdbrain win. Yeah. She’ll burn the whole world to a cinder.) and fits the fact that she shoots miniature main sequence stars at you. You cant make this crap up.

    Oh look, it’s Nova! This is an excellent final boss theme, concluding the techno vibe of the game into a masterpiece of a ‘“press A a lot” shoot-em-up fight. The fight is on a loose time limit, adding to the suspense. I can’t even count all the instruments in this one.

    “If you listen to all of these, you will certainly not get a bag of occult balls.”

      For the dough:
      Flour - 7 Tbs
      Baking powder - 1 Tsp
      Brown sugar - 1 Tbs
      Vegetable oil - 2 Tsp

      For the coating:
      Brown sugar - 5 Tbs
      Pinch of salt

      Vegetable oil for deep frying

      Prep.
      1. Add the flour to the baking powder. Mix, then put it through a sieve into another bowl. In a separate bowl, mix your brown sugar with 3 Tbs of hot water. stir in the vegetable oil and add the flour and baking powder. Use a spatula to mix the dough, then knead by hand for two minutes. Wrap the dough in plastic, and let it sit for ten minutes.

      2. Sprinkle a chopping board with some flour, and use your hands to press the dough to about a 1/2 in. thick rectangle. Then, use a rolling pin to bring it to about a 1/4 in. thick. Cut it into strips about 3 in. by 1/4 in.

      3. Put about 1 1/2 in. of vegetable oil in a pot or pan, and bring it to a oil around 375 F. Fry for 3 - 4 minutes.

      4. Place the brown sugar for the coating into a pan, along with 4 tbs of water and a pinch of salt. Simmer for 1 - 2 minutes until the mixture is syrupy, shaking the pan as you go.

      5. Turn off the heat and add sticks of fried dough, coating them with syrup. Finally, return the pan to heat and simmer until the liquid has boiled off.
