"arkv" is short for Arkive, part of a small worldbuilding project I'm working on with a couple friends. The name dates back to a MC SMP I was on back in 2021. Since then I've played around with what Arkive actually is. I think I'm getting closer to the answer, maybe one day I'll share it here!

Wanted something a little more personal, so my handle is now @njgdaedalus.arkv.me I may or may not do anything with this domain in the future, and a few other users might pop up with it here and there! I'm glad I figured this out, I think it's really cool :D

Finally got around to listening to the final episode and postlude of @midstpodcast.bsky.social's UNEND. What an incredibly beautiful end to a marvellously captivating story. I am crying. A lot. Go listen to Midst, and the go listen to Unend. It's worth it I promise!

I'm getting way better at the Vault Breaker gamemode in Marathon and it's honestly WAY more fun than the base game. The more I play it the more I don't understand why this wasn't the plan for the game from the get-go. Sol and I made it as far as a third vault AND got out with our T2 vault data :D

w....wait.... you mean to tell me.... gulps..... putting money into the arts.......is profitable and..........produces............g-good outcomes for everyone?

From ‘Outstanding’ and a good reminder that investing in the arts is a win-win, not a lose-lose, proposition.

It's been a little while since I've been listening but @midstpodcast.bsky.social announced season 3 of Unend so I thought I'd catch up and I'm still consistently in awe of how incredible Third Person are at storytelling and worldbuilding. Seriously check out Midst and Unend if you haven't already

I got to properly stream today for the first time in MONTHS and it was so much fun! Really getting into Marathon and hopefully might be able to stream a littleee bit more frequently moving forward too!

Crazy to me that every other storefront has an issue with Steam being miles ahead but then refuse to make them appealing enough to users that they might wanna switch. Both Epic and now GOG keep shooting themselves in the foot by using and defending AI. The bubble needs to burst.

I'm now on VGen!! 🥳🎉 (and I'm celebrating the launch with a 25% off sale!) vgen.co/tjtrewin Custom pixel font commissions are OPEN 🙌 I'll be adding listings for icons, tilesets, stream assets during the next couple of weeks :D #VGen #PixelArt #GameDev #IndieGameDev #Font #CustomFont

So I planned on building a bee farm, but while designing the aesthetics for it I decided I wanted to use froglights. 3 days later and I've got a froglight farm and far more froglights than I'm ever going to use :D

planning on opening these for ~$60 to get some work through january for both me and oz, which are notoriously dead months for artists (understandably so since a lot of folks spend during the holidays) would you get one?

Starting my year with a spot of spring cleaning (in winter, I know) both physically and digitally. Cleared out a lot of the junk from my room, and cleaned up my discord server list to less than half of what it was. Tomorrow the bedroom cleaning continues!

I've been really getting back into Minecraft again lately (motivated a LOT by the new season of Hermitcraft) and I've finally made a bit of progress on the Homely server, so I thought I'd share some of what I've been working on here! Here's a quick thread :D 🧵

Safe to say my armour was BATTERED so I finally got round to buying a few more mending books from my villager too, only for him to level up and offer me... MORE MENDING BOOKS! Next on the list is to beat the dragon, get an elytra, and then go mining for Netherite!

Next: the guardian farm storage room! This one was a CHALLENGE! In Homely w1, I didn't end up making a proper storage system for the guardian farm, so it was high on my list for w2. Using plenty of stripped warped logs, dark prismarine, sandstone, glass, and packed mud, I finally got it done :D

Alongside the storage on the floor below, I wanted the farm to automatically craft up the prismarine blocks before storing them, so people could just come and take the blocks they needed! The redstone's a mess, but it features contraptions by ilmango, Rays Works and EliTheWolf, and it all works!

First up: the iron farm! This thing is wayyy more efficient than I could ever need it to be, but it is a gnembon design so who's surprised? Wrangling the villagers for this one was NOT fun, so I'm glad it's out of the way now!

Next up: the elevator I wanted a fun way to get up and down the floors of my base, so Doctor Plasma's multi-floor 3x3 elevator was the way to go! This one isn't technically complete yet, but it's fully functioning and I can add new levels as and when I need them.

Brother I have fucked with all manner of compter shite for decades and never once did misusing the software make me kill myself and I installed Windows 3.1 on a 286.

My internet's been bad for a while but it's been ESPECIALLY sucky lately and it's reached a point where I can't even reliably game at the same time as being in a discord call. It's driving me insane and I can't even do anything about it because it's my parents in charge of the WiFi here 😭

Games I can play: Overwatch, The Escapists, Dead by Daylight Games I can't play: Marvel Rivals, Minecraft I simply do not understand 😭

Online gaming isn't even on the table at the moment - even Minecraft singleplayer is enough to tank my whole internet connection from being fine to being non-existent :///
