10 years on patreon
today i'm going to talk about my history on this platform and how i feel about it now. kind of a nostalgia trip of a post--should be fun for both new fans and old ones who were around for all the stuff that's happened up to now :)after this month, i'm gonna be making some changes to my patreon campaign. so you can read about those at the end OR stay tuned for next week's post where i'll just outline the changes without all this extra context haha. this post is public so that new people can read before they decide to join if ...
dev diary: web dev and goodbye to cohost
i've been doing a lot of work on my website lately! i redid my guestbook(pic above) and added lots of new pages i'll talk about below. but first...last week it was announced that cohost will be going read-only on october 1st and fully shut down before the end of the year. i wrote a postabout what that means for me, but obviously it's going to be deleted in a few short weeks, so i'll have to repost it somewhere and update this link later.the short version is i will be off social media after cohost is gone. it's sad, but right...
another piece of candy - vol2 cover progress + september strips
HELLO....... i've spent most of the week working on my website....... i made a page for moxdonald's(it's a fun read if you missed it!), a new galleryfor starry flowers, and a cute new layout for my guestbook. so... i am still behind on another piece of candy. oof!i actually wanted to share the september strips last monday, but i didn't finish the second one until just now. the first one is already public..... BUT to make up for it i thought i'd share my progress on the cover so far, which is coming out really cute. i missed ...
dev diary: a new cat boy is here
heyyy posting this a little late today because i've been distracted drawing fast food auover on cohost. sorry about that, i've been having too much fun!mild syrup 2 spoilers belowthe new cat boy's name is BARLEY! i was struggling to write the syrup 2 scenes that take place in nyapeta city (one of the later places you can go), and realized i should make a new character for toffee and syrup to bounce off of. barley is a very enthusiastic malt fan--he runs a fansite that toffee is familiar with. i want them to become friends. i like wr...

song preview: cassia (syrup 2)
another remix this week! since i finished putting cassia in syrup 2, i wanted to make a song for her. it's lucky thimble from charm studies, with a couple parts added to fit in with the rest of syrup 2's soundtrack better haha. i miiight extend it a little to smooth out the transition in the loop, but this will be what you hear in the next wip build. that'll be coming as soon as i finish writing the rest of the new scenes i had planned..! woo!!!
dev diary: astrology, and more about lime!
the UI is getting more finalized!!!!!!! i wanted to talk about the hint system in syrup 2 today, because i've put a lot of work into it!!!!!!! it's gone through a couple iterations now and i have screenshots of the old stuff to share too! so this one should be interesting hehehe...why "astrology"?in short... it's based on the lore from one of my favorite NIS games, the witch and the hundred knight. there are a few characters in it who can see into the future by "reading the stars". that's the approach i wanted to...
dev diary: memos and menus (syrup 2)
i'm still on my syrup 2 kick. i want to try to make a WIP build sometime in the next couple months. but yeah, anyway, i started drawing the different memo paper!!! here's what it looks like ingame:hehe, it swaps out based on the title you have equipped... they're turning out so cute. i've drawn about half of them now, but i might add more titles later, so there will be even more paper! i wish i could make some of these real... syrup 2 stationery sets.... <3because i was annoyed that you have to go into the game menu to change yo...
song preview: shady witchcraft (syrup 2)
hey sorry i forgot to post yesterday!!!! i can't believe i was late!!!!!!!!!!!!anyway i was looking through my new syrup 2 songs to find something to share, and a lot of them are still too early in the WIP stage... but this one's alright! it's an arrangement of a treat song that i really like actually. i'm glad i can reuse it to suit one of the villains in the game :) she doesn't have a lot of scenes but she certainly leaves an impact hehehe...enjoy the song, i'm still plugging away at syrup 2 right now but i might switc...
july 2024 art post
wow it's been a while. almost forgot to put this together today...letter from trick! this one is so wistful... i didn't have any news so i wanted to give it all flavor this time.treat icons! i posted these to cohost when i finished them. trying to get back into drawing more, so i was playing with limited palettes.new icon for me! embracing my villain era haha.this comic is a little old now (it's from last may) but i wanted to share it since it wouldn't get posted otherwise :)i drew a little on paper while i was in japan, so i...
dev diary: fixing syrup 2's request system
more syrup 2 updates this week! ok to explain the screenshot above: please ignore that there are 4 copies of the same quest. it's because i forgot to turn the event off where it gives you the quest so it was just doing it every day. the important part is, now instead of giving multiple of the same item... you can give an assortment of sweets!!!!! this original quest (for example) needed 3 of the orange gummies. but whenever i playtested, i realized i wasn't doing these quests at all because it's a pain in the ass to gather everythin...
dev diary: surprise, it's a syrup 2 update
um... ok so yknow how i've been saying "i wanna finish treat this year!!!! syrup 2 is delayed!!!!!!" well i'm really bad at following my own plans. syrup 2 has been sitting untouched for long enough that it became extremely easy to work on, so i'm taking advantage of this motivation to polish up what's there and fill out things that were missing. it feels really good to make progress on this game and i'm having a lot of fun, but i feel a little bit guilty too, because i SHOULD be spending this energy on treat... but ...
another piece of candy: vinegar comics
usually i drop the rough versions of these in my monthly art posts, but i have two storylines ready to go so it felt like a decent amount of content for a sneak peek :)the first set will be weekly updates starting on wednesday, titled "this is her day now"the second set is something i drew back in november (title: "let's watch the past"), but i wanted to give vinegar more time to be a regular cast member before dropping a heavier/plot-y series. maybe i can post it later this year! i want to do daily updates for it since it&#...
the next plush reveal

hello patrons!!! i am still on vacation so i apologize for the lack of fanfare with this cool update...i partnered with Turtle Pals Tapes to make a physical edition of BAD END THEATER!! they do a lot of game soundtracks, and i thought it would be really awesome to make BET CDs... but they were also able to put the game on the disc!!! so if you pop it in your computer you can play the game, wowee!!!!!!the store page for this will launch at noon PST. it'll be 4am in japan (where i currently am) so i will update this post with the store page l...

going on vacation!
hey everyone! i just paused the patreon campaign so i wanted to make a little explanation post to go along with it. i expected to do this in may, but i made basically no progress on my games for march, and something came up for april so... rather than continuing to deliver little-to-nothing, i figured i'd just pause the campaign early and come back once i'm all rested up!plans going forward:the regularly scheduled patreon updates will stop until i am back in july. i will write another update post at that point so you'll know when yo...
march 2024 art post
no trick letter this time since i got chunderfins to draw it instead hehesomeone asked for glasses pastille and i thought about this moment in an episode of FLCL... random, but he looks so cutewhy did i draw this... i can't remember.... i was playing a game with friends that had dressup features and one of them probably said something like "i wanna see GAMER pastille" and this is what came outthe next two are more ask responses hahasomeone asked for a battle royale between the main characters (excluding time) so i turned it into a t...
dev diary: ok burnout you win this round
this month has kinda been a wash in terms of productivity. i haven't been able to stick to my schedule at all, the things i'm able to focus on feel random and out of my control, and my brain so far hasn't course-corrected like it usually does. WAIT, I PROMISE THIS ISN'T A BUMMER POST!!! this is just how things go sometimes!!!!! i was hoping i'd go back to normal after the plush campaign ended (i burnt out during the underling one too so i figured it might happen again)--but no luck just yet. so i'm changing strategies......
NEOCITIES
NEW! SITE!!! i coded it myself!!!!!! check it out!!!!!https://nomnomnami.neocities.org/https://nomnomnami.neocities.org/https://nomnomnami.neocities.org/the content is mostly the same as from my carrd (the current official site), but the about and diary pages are full of new stuff. it's still a work in progress so i'm not switching my domain name over yet, but i plan to once it's more feature-complete haha. i wanna add a blog too, to host some of my cohost longposts or old dev diaries from patreon, not sure yet. just having fun for ...
dev diary: let me tell you about a game i love
i've been struggling to get myself to work on anything lately, so instead i've been writing a bunch of ren'py tips on cohostand playing a decade-old rpgmaker game called ENCHANT FARM.i found this game through a post someone made about it, and i downloaded it on a whim because i thought it looked interesting. i didn't actually get around to playing it until a month later, but once i did i became obsessed. i've never played a dark souls type game, but now i understand the appeal. i feel like this game was made specifically for...

february 2024 art post
woah i actually have a lot to share this month?! mostly scribbly stuff but... still a lot of fun things :) trick newsletter! it's funny using plushies of my characters as a reference when drawing them... nyoro~n toffee i doodled as an ask response on cohost, but i hid it on my website somewhere too haha. the next two are a gift for my brother! he's getting into streaming this year and needed someone to design his vtuber model. he asked for a mix of toffee, christo (disgaea 5), and dry bones (mario)... i love the result hahaha. he said h...
sex advice succubus: 3rd session concept art
new guy just dropped!!!!!! this is Jutenn, he is an ogre. his screenname is heart_in_knots so qmin will be calling him "knots" mostly (not sure if his real name will come up in the script since i haven't written it yet...)he's also LARGE!!! look at him!!!!!!shoot i'm realizing now he should actually be wearing a wedding ring... the lore is that ogres are closer to humans than other demons so they adopt some of their customs (like monogamous marriages). i think it's fun to explore the different societal expectations even ...
dev diary: the plush campaign is going but i'm thinking about a billion other things
long title this week... umm first of all YAY THE CAMPAIGN IS A SUCCESS!!!i wasn't as worried about it this time since SO many people asked for maiden and overlord specifically during the underling campaign. and now people are asking for hero (of course), and... pastille and periwinkle??!??! well gosh i guess that will have to happen someday now won't it <3i have a bunch of other stuff to talk about today though! namely:the impending sex advice succubus updatewebcomic stuffvocaloid album plans(!!!)no treat news since i've been taking...
