ohhh alright alright
1. vocal synths. not AI, it doesnt just...autotune itself, you have to program every note and syllable on your own. what i love about them is that they give voices and beginnings to so many people who dont feel comfy singing themselves or cant get singers. it lets so many people dabble with song writing and all that comes with it and you can find so many cool ideas and people through them in every genre imaginable, and the communities that come with them from people all bonding together :)
2. stardew valley. the divide on whether or not its calming is so funny to me bc i find it immensely calming; theres no rush, you can do everything at your own pace, the style is super cute, you can have goats and ducks, you dont have to romance if you dont want to, and mining and fishing are both v fun! plus the decoration options and new stuff that concernedape is still putting out, bless 'em
3. curry. its one of my safe foods because it's so varied, and seeing as how sweet and spicy are two favourite flavours of mine, curry is often literally Perfect
4. yume nikki and its fangames. oh my god i could write ESSAYS on these and im grouping them together because even though they range so vastly, theyre still a lil family of games all inspired by yume nikki :) no dialogue, just exploring dreamscapes and coming up with theories. the looping music, the surreal looks, the effects, seeing how deep into one dream you can go, its all just been such a comfort for me since middle school lmao
what makes you choose your usernames online? is it something nostalgic that you've had for ages, an aesthetic, a song lyric, a nickname?
