Dear visitor:

On account of the many light-years between us, I can only offer you this DarkStarCake.gif.

I hope you'll enjoy learning about me.
Yours truly--

Princess Dark Star

Favorite movies

• Pearl (2022) / I went as her for halloween one year! This movie is so tragic and painfully relatable. I want to be a star!
  
  
• The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) / It's a classic. I was so impressed and disturbed after seeing it, no slasher has impressed me in that way since.
  
  
• The Substance (2024) / Deeply disturbing and entertaining. It just keeps on going... My most memorable movie theater experience.
  
  
• Eighth Grade (2018) / This is a horror movie to me. I had to take breaks watching it. Too real.
  
  
• Be My Cat: A Film for Anne (2015) / This is pure found footage horror. It's not for everyone but it does everything right for me.
  
  
• Host (2020) / Extremely fun to watch.
  
  
• Nope (2022) / I'm rarely satisfied with alien horror movies (They never portray us right...) but this movie satisfied me.
  
  
• Interstellar (2014) / Gargantua, my beloved. This movie is so beautiful.
  
  

I'm really bad at watching TV so I don't have enough to make an entire seperate list, but I need to include Swarm (2023) as I adore that show, it has the same appeal as Pearl did to me. I also quite like Nathan for You (2013), it makes me laugh.

Favorite Games

• Outer Wilds (2019) / It's as good as people say it is, best game ever, outer space perfection. PLAY IT!!! DLC TOO!!
  
  
• Disco Elysium (2019) / Unparalleled writing, world building, characterization...
  
  
• Until Dawn (2015) / I wish I could play this game for the first time again.
  
  
• Life is Strange 2 (2018) / I love all the life is strange games but this one made me cry the hardest.
  
  
• Portal 2 (2011) / Who doesn't love this game. The finale is so good...
  
  
• HITMAN World of Assassination (2022) / Extremely fun game to mess around in, I have fond memories with the whole trilogy.
  
  
• Dwarf Fortress (2006?) / I love building forts and watching my lil' guys live in it and torturing invaders with trap halls.
  
  
• Project Zomboid (2011?) / The best game for roleplay.
  
  
• Noita (2019) / I would endlessly entertain myself with The Powder Toy as a child, Noita scratches that same itch.
  
  
• Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy (2017) / I love this type of rage game so, so much. I used to try speedrunning it but only got down to like, 8 minutes.
  
  
• Peak (2025) / So fun! I love to relax, turn a video on, and do some single player climbing. It's singleplayer experience is so underrated! But obviously the best moments are gonna be multiplayer.
  
  

Nintendo (Particularly Mario) games, also hold a special place in my heart, even if I wouldn't call them my absolute favorite games ever. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Super Paper Mario, Mario 64 (DS, specifically), Super Mario Galaxy... Super Mario Galaxy... Super Mario Galaxy...

Hobbies

Shamefully, I have a habit of neglecting my royal responsibilities to pursue human interests. Listening to your people's music, playing your games, watching your movies... I have a lot of free time.

I am also an artist, mainly on the computer. I use a Wacom Intuos tablet with Clip Studio Paint most of the time, though I still exlusively use medibang paint for simple editing and my OC art, I just think it's more convenient to use sometimes.

I'll 3D model for my game projects, for little site assets, or for its own sake rarely. I use Blender of course, it's the best.

I love making games, usually story heavy, and use Unity as my engine. I've gotten by just fine with visual scripting, it works for me and makes debugging intuitive. I use Fungus for a lot of my visual novel projects, it's a really amazing plugin and I love it so much.

In making story heavy games, I of course also write stories... It's extremely difficult for me. Writing can be my most satisfying hobby when it goes right, but most of the time I sit stumped and frustrated. I use google docs, I guess.

I've been pretty consistently trying to learn Spanish. I really love Dreaming Spanish... It genuinely works.

I need to practice with it way more, but I love astronomy. Duh. I'd like to get a better telescope and try astrophotography at some point. I need more outside hobbies so I'm not stuck in this castle all day...
