Assets and tools I used for this site

Softwares I use

  • Kritaexternal link – free and open-source digital painting software (for PC). By far my favourite :)
  • Procreateexternal link – digital art software (for ipad). Not my personal favourite, but still very good in my opinion.
  • Obsidian.mdexternal link – markdown editor that is good for organising information. I often use it for worldbuilding and such.
  • LibreOfficeexternal link – free and open-source office suite (spreadsheets, text documents, etc). Compatible with Microsoft Office file types.
  • VSCodiumexternal link – free and open-source distrubution of visual studio code (without telemetry, tracking, etc)
  • Twineexternal link – open-source tool for making interactive fiction.
  • Blenderexternal link – free and open-source 3D modelling software.
  • Inkscapeexternal link – free and open source vector editor. I find it a little fiddly to use, but I find vector editing in general quite fiddly, so maybe it’s just me.
  • uBlock Originexternal link – adblocker (browser extension). If you are a person who uses the internet in the modern era (which you, presumably, are, seeing as you are reading this right now) you will benifit from using an adblocker.

Useful websites

  • Cobaltexternal link – website for downloading videos/audios from various social medias (not youtube though, unfortunately).
  • doodad.devexternal link – a few tools that are useful for the aesthetic side of website creation. The UI is a little overwhelming in my opinion, however.
    • Dither me thisexternal link – tool for dithering images
    • Gradient generatorexternal link – tool for generating gradients (that can be exported as CSS code, an SVG, or a PNG/JPEG).
    • Pattern generatorexternal link – tool for making tilable background patterns (that can be exported as CSS code, an SVG, or a PNG/JPEG).
  • W3Schoolsexternal link – tutorials/reference for HTML and CSS (and many other programming languages and and such). Invaluable to me.
  • MDN Web Docsexternal link – documentation for HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Also very useful.
  • Wayback Machineexternal link – allows you to see past versions of a webpage (as long as it’s been saved). Managed by the Internet Archiveexternal link
  • ProtonDBexternal link – database cataloguing how well Windows Steam games run on Linux and Steam Deck.
  • You feel like shitexternal link – interactive self-care guide thing. Not a cure-all but it can be helpful for me if I’m having a rough day. Your milage may vary, however.
  • Lernu!external link – site for learning Esperanto. Very good in my opinion.
  • 5e Toolsexternal link – the full rules for D&D 5e, plus a handful of other tools. Useful for both DMs and players. The link is to the 2014 version of the rules (I don’t want to acknowledge the existance of the 2024 rules any more than I have to lmao).
  • Archives of Nethysexternal link – the full rules for Pathfinder. Doesn’t include adventure paths. Can be a bit confusing to navigate at times, at least in my opinion. The link is for 2e, but the website also has the rules for 1e (plus both 1e and 2e of Starfinder).
  • Plena Ilustrita Vortaro de Esperantoexternal link (Complete Illustrated Dictionary of Esperanto, or PIV for short) – the most comprehensive Esperanto dictionary. Monolingual.
  • Annotated English-Esperanto Dictionaryexternal link – pretty much what the name says. Every translation is annotated with a source, and a link to the word’s entry in PIV.
  • Colour blenderexternal link – tool for blending colours that gives the result as a hex code, or as RGB.
  • Random.orgexternal link – random number generator.
  • Halftone Hospitalexternal link – various assets and tools (mostly brushes and textures, but there is more) for making comics digitally. The brushes (with the exception of one that is only compatible with Photoshop) are all compatible with Photoshop, Clip Studio Paint, and Procreate.

Fun and/or interesting websites

  • Level 13external link – browser survival game. Mostly text based. VERY good in my opinion. It made me rather emotional at certain points (which is a very good thing, I like getting emotional at games).
  • Trichromatexternal link – very clever and satisfying puzzle game. The person that made it (spratt) has made a number of other little puzzle games, but Trichromat is my favourite.
  • Eyes on the Solar Systemexternal link – simulated map of the Solar System that you can watch in real time.
  • 2025 (a game, not the year)external link – do you like sorting things into catagories? I like sorting things into catagories. In this game, you sort 45 things into 45 catagories (because 45 times 45 is 2025).
  • Cadgyexternal link – game where you need to find a certain number of 5 letter words (usually 20, but sometimes 40) in a four by five letter grid, using one letter from each column.
