AGDQ2024 is over! It was fun, what a crazy ending. :3 Here's a silly mostly-reused bingo, still worked this time too!

I like when shmups make it explicitly clear what your hitbox is instead of going for the vague "We gave you an entire sprite but only the center pixel counts" idea with no visual to know.
I like watching someone play and being able to clearly tell what part of their character actually matters for dodging shit.
Why yes I am speaking on part from the Deathsmiles speedrun at GDQ right now, how'd you guess.

hello gamers I have quickly repurposed this ages-old blog with no content to rant and rave about a project I want to work on (and actually finish someday) that all started when I was in the audience watching Mario 64 get beat on a drumset by CZR at AGDQ2024, which is,
Turning My Violin into a MIDI Controller so that I Can Play Video Games with It but Only If It Doesn't Require More Than Two Inputs at a Time,
or,
TMVMCICPVGIOIIDRMTTIT,
or,
Undertale Violin%??????
My goal is to map the 12 chromatic notes of Western tonal music to a very basic controller scheme, like the 3 action + 4 directional buttons of Undertale. As I type this, I understand that it would be much more practical to include 4 cardinal directions, 4 "in-between" diagonal directions, and the 3 action buttons for a total of 11 discrete notes that can be played monophonically, but unfortunately I am insane and choose to do it the stupid way that utilizes all 5 of my electric violin's individual pickups and parses them independently, for this reason alone:
It would sound better.
My plan is as follows:
create a monophonic analog input-to-MIDI-to-controller codebase in a language I know that works fast in realtime and has threading capability
play a game of Undertale with monophonic inputs only (or at least enough of one to get the kinks out of the system)
learn to solder
use my soldering skills to route out the individual pickup signals to their own individual inputs that can connect to the different threads of my codebase
get good at Undertale live on twitch dot TV slash sadwinning
this blog will be my devlog on this insane journey, more for myself than anyone else, because I have a day job (allegedly) that I cannot do if my brain is full of video games. I have to empty out the video game thoughts so that I can think.
tbh I will likely take on more stupid projects in the future that I want to log here so I'm going to have the foresight to tag this specifically. I already told someone else at GDQ I was going to use my steno machine to run epistory

Spent most of the day watching AGDQ2024 while getting 10k steps in doors for pikmin community day. It's just a little too cold to go outside; -7°F highest so far.

I can't believe the first game of AGDQ2024 was about a lil fluffy guy wandering around a library learning a language, I feel so seen
