Considering becoming a supporter so I can have my own custom domain, with the neocities; my only worry is, would this break all the links on my site that already use the .neocities domain? Because I can't imagine trying to patch all that up across 50+ pages.

It's good practice to not type your full URL while linking to a page within your site. That being said, Neocities redirects your old domain to your current one :)

Is there a notable reason why using the full URL is a bad idea? I've just done it out of habit + I'm not super well versed in coding or anything. But otherwise, if I switch over and go through the process of having a custom domain, it should all just work?

The reason why you should type «/page.html» or similar instead of «domain.com/page.html» is precisely because sometimes sites go through domain changes. I just checked with my own website, and the pages still get linked correctly.

The reason why my old URL links to my current domain is because Neocities has that feature, a lot of webhosts don't.

Thanks! Let me know if you want to share buttons to mutual link our pages. Also, I need playtesters for MAGIC WORDS, so if you play it, let me know how it goes.

My gf is a huge Castlevania fan but has some similar hangups with Circle of the Moon, especially with the awkward last third difficulty spike and grind ahaha. I just got the Advance collection recently so I'll end up playing soon too

Enjoy! The switch release doesn't quite fix a ton of the inherent issues but it certainly makes it a bit palatable.

I've been feeling my latest reviews have been perhaps too in-depth. Earlier reviews hung around that 1000-1500 word count, whilst the last few have pushed past 2000s? What do you guys think?

i don't think word count is a problem at all! your reviews are great, no matter how long or short they are ^_^

talk as much as you want, it's your website, and a lot of these games are old and somewhat obscure nowadays so it's nice to see them get the attention

i think being thorough is pretty much always a positive! if you're worried about length, maybe you could keep an eye out for any redundant points, but i don't think you've had that problem. i love your reviews so longer and more in depth is what i wanna see 🙌

Very in-depth is something I very much appreciate honestly! Extensive analysis is just a joy when the writer has so much to say about different aspects that interest them

I was having some odd (let's say, spooky) issues where the review was coming up with pieces from my E.T review - it should be displaying the correct review now, but let me know if anything looks odd!
