homepage update! finished drawing the new sprite walk cycle animations (also cleaned up the sprite design a bit. changes are tiny but i think it looks much better.) i also added a closet and an alternate outfit (⌒_⌒;)

on the 2d version of the page, i tightened up the html. since i think i feel pretty close to nailing down the general layout for the 2d pages, i replaced all the generic placeholder divs i was using with semantic html tags

full update post on the homepage blog ^-^

I have a question tho, why you decided to use compiled aac tracks instead of og music-for-web friendly midi? Reaching for that compressed quality effect, or just like the sound of a certain synth?

Yeah, if we're talking about avoiding system FM synth / midi modules, which most browsers are using by default usually, you need to use JS. And yeah, I get it you wanted that warm compression with artifacts (which reminds me of early flash movies too).

But using midi would be a hardcore true to late 90 early 2000 approach :3

I wanted to kill a lot of webmasters personally back in the day XD

there's no native midi support in browsers and i didn't want to add more js to convert it on the fly. i also like the degraded audio with artifacts bc it sounds like it's coming out of tinny handheld console speakers (◕‿◕)
