It’s been a slow and meandering winter, amidst a backdrop of unfortunate chaos from overseas. Let us instead turn our attention to the interplay of light and chemicals! I’ve got a few tasty snaps I took during December last year.

You know what rules? Hot chocolate. And with a recent cold snap, that’s exactly what has been keeping warmth in my beslippered toes when I shuffle through to work at 8:00am on the weekdays. My freelance game optimization work has been chugging along nicely, and I’m currently working with a really lovely client based in mainland Europe - so I’ve been keeping an earlier schedule than I usually do this time of year.

Being a power of two, I’ve become incredibly familiar with it with my years of game development and general computery nonsense. It’s like seeing an old friend! And with that, read on for the year in review!
The reactions feature I wrote for my site a few days back was broken on mobile (and as it turns out, desktop too) due to a bug I accidentally introduced! Whoops! Should be fixed now, though, hehe!
