A happenstance visit to Critical-Distance introduced me to your site about a month ago, and I couldn't have been any luckier. Your writings have been a pleasure to read, so-much-so, that I've to exercise self-restrain not to binge . Thank you for reinvigorating my appreciation for video games and art. As well, thank you for making the end of 2025 less unbearable. I'm grateful to have be a new reader, and wish you well in 2026. Ok bye.

Hullo! My friend Brooke sent me your site when I was complaining about the homogenization of the internet and I'm so delighted to cruise through your wonderful little space here <3 (Also! It seems like your route to the guestbook has the themes and changelog tabs available, and doesn't have the theme dropdown either. Not sure that's intentional or not but wanted to let you know!)

The website looks like it's breathing

Hi! Came across your work through Critical Distance a few months ago and instantly fell in love with everything you're doing around here. Keep up the awesome work <3

I stumbled in here from the brilliant Purity and Plauge post you wrote, and holy smokes I'm obsessed with your website design. A theme picker?? Hell yeah. Also all the multifarious styles of the blog posts, etc. This is what the internet is for. Thanks for being a radical human and making cool stuff.

Hey Alli! Keep up the good work! You’re inspiring lots of ppl to make their own sites, to write, to make art! That’s something we need a lot more of right now, so thank you for doing your part. 💖

Hi! I found your site through your blog post 'The Digital Chastity Belt' and afterwards read '404: The Internet You Tried to Remember Still Exists'. Came here to say they were both really pleasant readings. I really like your insights how you articulate yourself. Will definitely come back for more of your writings.

Hello there. Nice blog. Just hopped here to say that I really liked your last text on the relation between fun and video games.

I can't really imagine a site making a better first impression on me than this one! 'you should play bad games' really spoke to me--it expertly puts into words the level of love and empathy I try to have for 'bad' art. the site itself is also so, so cute!! It was a big inspiration for me to finally put together my own website. Thank you for bringing this little corner of the internet to life! As an aside, your bluesky icon is wicked cute! Is it from something specific, or handmade for you?

this is a cool website. and 'you should play bad games' is brilliant, an incredible and well thought out piece. came here from GMTK's patreon newsletter which linked to the article.

Hi! Just wanted to say that I really liked the "You Should Play Bad Games" article! Also it's really cool that every blog post has its own theming to it, the site as a whole is great!

Found your Moon article through the Critical-Distance page! I loved it deeply, it genuinely got me to think about a game that I've been interested in for ages but worried I would bounce off of. Your perspective helped me shift my mindset to one where I think I am going to love and care for it as I find the drive and impact in myself while playing. I'm looking forward to reading through your archive and I hope you keep up the incredible writing! (っ´ω`c)♡

I'm so happy I found your work through my friends! Your writing style is wonderful, very good at staying in my head for a whole after I read it. I love how deep you go into topics, sharing your whole heart through your words. I'm excited to see more of what you have to say. 💜

Great and well written entries imo, always an interesting read when something new is here!

Hello, I'm really liked your writing of your blog post about Iyashikei anime, they can be really relaxing and cozy. I'm liked your website design, as a writer myself, i'm also planning of creating my own personal site. I need to ask if there's a site like this so i could create one myself or you design it by yourself?
