Characters will be my OC database, so people can see them for Artfight or rp or whatever. But honestly, I just like looking at them displayed on their own page. It reminds me of the cast page of a promo site for an otome game. Those are always the most stylish pages with the most prose. Flash's death killed my old favorite designs, so here's whatever the latest Otomate game is as an example of what I mean.

The art page can show my pictures. With the exception of OotD/MotD, fashion (designing, patternmaking, sewing, styling) takes a much longer time to produce blogworthy updates than programming and drawing, so it's always awkward to decide if and how to include it with everything else. I think photos and the occasional blog post is the easiest solution for now. Plus, with the variety of media it brings to the page, it makes me feel more comfortable sharing game screenshots and other fun-but-not-necessarily-art pictures.

For the about me page, I want to provide a brief description of what I do, how to contact me, and what Blessfrey.me is. I'm kind of private and kind of boring, so there isn't much to explain anyway. It was too general before, sharing too much information about each project, when that information is better situated on the projects' pages.

More specific pages were moved under these main pages. Also, more specific pages, like the gdd page, has become a hub for all my game design documents rather than just featuring my latest game.

nav redesign

The biggest visual change is the navigation bar. It used to be modeled after an RPG skillbar, and I was even trying to mimic the 'cooldown' animation after clicking an icon.

Which dictionaries should I use?

Remember, the more you are forced to use Japanese, the better. Also, the closer you are to a purely Japanese source, the better.

How do I study all these new words I am learning?

hello,

call me chimchooree.

I live USA and dabble in lots of things - webdev, gamedev, programming, sewing, pattern-making, drawing, and creative writing, to name a few. Some of my projects are shared on here. Others may be lurking on itch.io (chimchooree) and GitLab (chimchooree), though most never see the light of day.
