I thought I was doing something exciting with building my buttons out of just code, but to make them using IFRAMES is inspired!

Hidden audio for these pages as well. By my count, just 4 more and then I get to make a hints page and then jump back into a different project before starting a new one by virtue of "oooh shiny"

There's an interest phenomenon that happens with hyperfixations. For me it usually expresses when I am obsessed with a particular video game. I will be at work and all my mind can focus on is what I will be doing in-game when I get home.
It's that feeling, but with Neocities. 5PM cannot get here any faster.

Even as my fixation on working on my site ebbs and flows, I've never felt quite anything like that except for working on my site. It's way too much fun.

I find myself being fixated on things that I can do at home at work, and things I can do at work at home. Super frustrating.

Changed some out-of-date coding conventions, added some vinyl to the collection, added some more external links, and gave the ability to scroll through pixel art with arrows rather than showing all of them at once. Also, hidden audio.

Checked out your site after I saw you commented on mine and DAMN this is cool! Everything here oozes with so much style, and the vibes kinda remind me of the new Marathon, with a little bit of Cyberpunk 2077. Killer site!!

Wow thank you so much! You've got a good eye. A large chunk of my inspiration takes from artists like Antireal (who unfortunately had her artwork stolen by Bungie while developing Marathon) and The Designer's Republic with a heavy dose of the cyberpunk aesthetic as well to unify everything. Felt like a good fit since it has such a large focus on presenting text/data and I've got a "no image" rule.

Your site is so cool! The way your index is built to look exactly like a video game title screen makes it feel so welcoming. I love how in Four-Legged Spider the music slowly builds as you progress too, I was jamming by the time the tombstone dropped on my little guy!

Of course! Your site is very cool and it's a pleasure finding someone else going for a lightweight text-heavy design philosophy.

I bought a domain because why not.
While it would be nice for folks to update their links (the new URL is https://dir.emptiness.io), it's ABSOLUTELY NOT REQUIRED AT ALL as it will still end up at the same place.
At the end of the day this is just because I saw an opportunity and the URL makes me giggle.

Finally took a look at my site on Chrome and realized most of the volume bars on the hidden audios weren't showing up, so I fixed it. Also, that buttons.html design lasted a whole 3 weeks before I wanted to redo it LOL and there's at least one other page I want to overhaul completely
omg there is no way you made buttons from *other websites* out of code too. holy crust the skill is insane.
@hippiejesus Yeah, that was the big project prior to going off on a tangent and starting another one haha. I'll get back to it next week probably
