Maybe what we should tape up to our wall is a note saying, "You're allowed to exist - be good <3", because this has been the ... many-th time that one of us has been like "but can I really be a new system member? the Packbats already have a bunch of those...".

But, as it turns out, yes, I can be a new system member.

Going with Packagia as a words-name - I like the 🦎 emoji as an emoji name, but Packlizard doesn't sound fun and I'm a flying lizard, and flying lizard wings are patagia. (Our partner came up with that pun.)

Anyway, what with now-ten documented system members, including a bug, a bird, a dragon, a snake, and a lizard, I guess we can say definitely that the Packbat system scales well.

(That one's on me.)

We've made a couple hacks at trying to write a Proper Guide to writing music in PICO-8, but it just occurred to us that we could, y'know, be not organized and just post higgledy-piggledy stuff we know and want to talk about.

Should we do that here? It'd probably replace some number of our usual posts if we do.
