https://www.lexie.land/blog/blogindex.html Thoughts about stuff, post-mortems, reviews, manic writings, everything a girl could ask for. Ask anyone stuck to roam these diluvially doomed lands what the heaviest thing they've ever hauled on a bike was and they will tell you a bardic tale of their heroism. The terminally Dutch pride themselves in their gross vehicular misconduct (me too!), the physicality of the feat being the primary pride-point. Moving stuff with a car? Pussy shit, boring, tired, whatever. Delicately balancing a full dining table set across your steering wheel? Stunning, brave, unbelievable, and in dire need of a song. https://www.lexie.land/blog/blogpost-bikehaul.html lexie-bikehaul Sun, 01 Mar 2026 21:22:00 +0200 What a deeply evil year this was! The genocide in Palestine, war in Ukraine, the Trump regime in its entirety; the lives of the people I love and myself are becoming demonstrably more difficult, and with no clear end in sight it's become imperative to look back and remember what it's all for. https://www.lexie.land/blog/blogpost-2025.html lexie-2025-review Mon, 12 Jan 2026 17:00:00 +0200 In my Flesh and Pressure Post-Mortem blogpost I already talked a bit about the rating I gave my own game according to a self-conceived rating system. By this point this has been dubbed P-NES (The Perfect Narrative Evaluation System). https://www.lexie.land/blog/blogpost-pnes.html p-nes Thu, 16 Oct 2025 12:00:00 +0200 Made another freakin' VN, hell yeah buddy. This time I wanted to experiment with alternatives styles of making visual assets, and while browsing the art supply store near my uni I kind of happened upon linoleum. I had been intrigued by stamps for a while already and I figured lino is kinda just big stamps! https://www.lexie.land/blog/blogpost-lcgdemo.html lathe-cut-grooves Thu, 02 Oct 2025 12:00:00 +0200 Chat, I've officially fallen in love with writing. Maybe specifically visual novels, even more specifically kinetic novels (visual novels but largely linear), but love is love nonetheless! It feels like I have finally found a manner in which I feel comfortable talking/connecting/communicating and oh my god I want, nay, need to get better at it. https://www.lexie.land/blog/blogpost-fleshnpressure.html flesh-n-pressure Sun, 20 Jul 2025 12:00:00 +0200 What does someone put on a webpage? This question which, initially, felt simple to me, turned out to be much more difficult to answer than it should've been. For the life of me I couldn't figure out what to put on my webpage, for ages, it felt like I had nothing I cared enough about to make viewable, for myself or others. https://www.lexie.land/blog/blogpost-sincereweb.html sincere-web Tue, 01 Apr 2025 12:00:00 +0200 Shadow of Memories/Destiny (SoM/D) is a time-hopping narrative puzzle game set in the deliciously unsubtly named German village of Lebensbaum; a fantastically real setting featuring a cozy diner, a pack of road-blocking wild dogs, and our himbo-tastic protag Eike (the tree references are excessive). https://www.lexie.land/blog/blogpost-somreview.html somd-review Tue, 25 Mar 2025 12:00:00 +0200 For my current master's I've been fucking around with these nifty older machines called 'pen Plotters'. In essence, these machines draw based on given instructions sent over a COM port. It is janky, imperfect, surprisingly precise, and I absolutely love it. https://www.lexie.land/blog/blogpost-penplot.html pen-plotters Mon, 24 Feb 2025 12:00:00 +0200
