I am thinking of buying a treadmill so I can run even when its nigh impossible outside (for example this week most days had slippery snowy goop out, probably still can run most days but coupled with how early it gets dark and how cold it is I am just not morivated most days in the winter). Biggest problem I have is that I live in an apartment, so I am scared I couldnt run cause my downstairs neighbors would hate me. Is there any way to make it work? Or does anyone have any ideas how to properly motivate myself to run in winter? I used to go running every other day and I loved it and I want to run more somehow, I barely force myself to do it like once a week now in the winter. Its just annoyingly cold before I warm up, or if I put on too many layers instead I am too sweaty after I warm up. Maybe I need better clothes?

But I did return to a project I worked on in the past. Though I sadly feel like I won’t be able to share it here. Still happy to be doing something creative, whatever it is!

Tygrak Link ParentI had my previous phone before the 13 mini for 8 years. I wont mind having this one for as long too, but I am scared that there wont be a replacement even after all that time.I had my previous phone before the 13 mini for 8 years.

Despite everything, the art for MTG always was incredible -- here's the official site where they put up new wallpapers regularly and have been doing so for years. Other times it's just some cool art from some other game, currently it's Mizuki from Arknights.

Tygrak Link ParentWow Gotham City Impostors is a blast from the past! That was a fun game, I loved how unique it was compared to most multiplayer pvp games, shame games can just fully die.Wow Gotham City Impostors is a blast from the past!

I'd highly recommend joining game jams when learning how to make games. You can learn so much in one weekend, and you can end up with a cool simple game that you can show to your friends, it's amazing. There should be a Ludum Dare coming in about 28 days, so you might want to mark that in your calendar :). I also work as a game developer as my day job for a few years now.
Also one of my games I released on Steam -- I'll send you a code for it in DMs (if anyone else would want a code please feel free to DM me or write a comment here and I'll send you one). I wrote some posts here on Tildes about the development of it too, this is the last one and it has links to previous posts.

If you like these kinds of games I'd heavily recommend it It actually released in late 2023, but I didn't even learn about it until like half a year after it released. I don't see people talk about this game enough.
This reminds me of Slay the Princess which is a great visual novel with a huge number of actually meaningful choices.
And I also loved UFO 50 that other epople here talked about already, it's just a very well made collection of 50 full fledged retro-style games.

I'll post the full compilation, probably during the showcase, when it will be up on Bandcamp.
Here is the song (warning, not only is it drone and bad, it's also over 9 minutes long)

Ideally I’d like to do running but yeah maybe doing something else is the answer. What would you recommend specifically?
