Hi, I'm Nettie

I like puzzles and games

I do things with computers.

I have some presence on Twitter, Mastodon, Cohost and Bluesky. I'm quite proud of this simple words crossword I made.

Long ago I kept a techie blog, and there are some thiings there I'm proud of, such as a rambling series on trying to draw pretty Minecraft maps, and a dissection of an adventure gamebook.

I sometimes make games, generally unreasonably hard puzzle games:

I have dabbled in Super Mario World modding. I drew some replacement player graphics: Princess Daisy and Vivian from The Thousand Year Door. I also made some infographics about how the game handles colour palettes.

I used to draw a lot, largely illustrations and covers for TBD magazine, a student sci-fi and fantasy magazine I was involved in at Glasgow University. Some day I'd like find the time to get back into drawing. It's much harder to get anything drawn without deadlines!
