We wanted to find the origins of an old platformer. The player controlled a floating eye creature through a cave collecting items and power-ups along the way. I had found a no longer used file directory online dedicated to an early 2000s Sims community. There were files of a member named “fredu” who had done the concept art for this game. I revealed my findings to the group while continuing to search for other people who may have been involved in the project.

My brother was talking about game controllers. Someone else in the room was playing a fighting game and said how “loser always blocked the first punch”. They later added how “some cuteness is more embedded” than others.
