[kamibanani]

new pinned post since apparently i've gotten new followers??

hi im kami

im a game developer aka professional fandom gremlin by day, and regular fandom gremlin by night. if you're following me for fandom stuff you've probably played a game i've worked on

i used to draw but not so much anymore, but some of my art occasionally floats around, and there's a stupid greek art meme where i made a dumb comment that somehow keeps resurfacing after a decade

i probably am pretty inactive on any given month but i occasionally pop in and make a few posts before leaving

uhh yeah i guess that's it lol k bye

[kamibanani]

i'm alive i suppose

man my social media use dropped HARD lmao. i don't know if i wanna be active again but, maybe...? been doing a lot of like... creative things lately, at least as far as writing / world building have gone.

anyhow a brief update:

my husband and i had a brief triad with someone that ended abruptly and heartbreakingly at the end of january

about 3 days later the studio i was working at collapsed entirely (there is a whole lot of stuff about that which i will refrain speaking on due to active litigation)

i've been in a funk for a while as a result

i've lost like 15 lbs? which is nice but also none of my clothes fit anymore rip

mid-march i started contracting at an indie studio which has been... all right so far but probably not something long term

currently evaluating my options and working on updates to my resume and portfolio to orient outside of the games industry (which is a huge bummer considering how hard i fought to get in here seven years ago but jesus christ look at the state of it)

so yeah that's me. haven't been drawing much lately (read: at all). but i did pick up a new campaign of bg3 as a self insert, playing with a close friend, and that's been nice.

hope yall have been good. xo

Commission for @kamidoodles of her Lavellan, Bituin! Bituin is based on Filipino culture and I loved working on her <3

[kamibanani]

been having some thinky feelings about bituin lately, especially after my brief stint working on DA, so have a rebagel.

minttu thanks again for such a perfect rendition of my girlie <3 i come back to this piece often.

happy christmas to those who celebrate 🎄

its a low key christmas this year — dinner with @ogrebanani @vanessasketch @mageflower and just cosy hang outs.

it's been a big year, and an especially big december both professionally and personally. it's taken up most of my time but i wouldn't trade it for the world.

prob won't post a lot this year since it's low key, but the tag to block if you need to is #a christmas kami 2025

xo

The Dog Will Stay

[tokenduelist-chillzone]

Too bad.

[xlugger]

the dog stays

[tokenduelist-chillzone]

WRONG

Trap Master can only be flipped during your turn or by the effect of another card. Since no card has been activated to trigger such an effect, Trap Master cannot be activated in response to Trap Stun.

THE DOG GOES.

[superflyingthing]

The effect of Prediction Princess Tarotrei can flip trap monster face up on the opponents turn. 

THE DOG STAYS

[lawd-what-a-booty]

Once we send that Prediction Princess Tarotrei to the graveyard, our trap sealing will stick around.

The dog goes. 

[legionoftuna]

Ritual Sealing does not negate, only destroy. Prediction Princess Tarotrei is destroyed, but its effect is still carried out.

THE DOG. STAYS.

I do enjoy it when a game is clearly trying to use a wildly inappropriate pre-built game engine for what it wants to do, but I don't see why RPG Maker should have all the fun. Do grid-based tactical combat in Inform. Write a rhythm game in Twine. Implement that precision puzzle platformer in Ren'Py. You know you want to.

Make a roguelike metroidvania in PowerPoint

[prokopetz]

I haven't bumped into that exact combination before, but I have separately encountered both a roguelike made of Microsoft Excel macros and a metroidvania built inside a sudoku web app.

[arcanistlupus]

To quote my wife: "The worst part about [the sudoku metroidvania] is that it's actually good."

[urists]

one thing about me is that i love a dumpling

[nihilnovisubsole]

an underrated part of any hot fictional man headcanon is whether he wears a sleeveless undershirt or one with sleeves. it's not important which you choose, but it's important that you know
