every time i ask people if they do any new years resolutions its all ooooo i dont like making them bc i fail or ohhhhh no i couldnt keep up wiht that and then when they ask me and i tell them about Pasta Quest (i am eating as many different pasta shapes as possible in the space of a year) or when i did Fruit Adventures (every time i saw a fruit i had never eaten before id get one and eat it and read the wikipedia article about it) theyre like hang on i forgot you can make Fun Ones i want a fun one
while i actually made this post back in May, since New Year’s is approaching here’s some of my fave suggestions from the tags if you’re looking for inspiration!
other favorites from the notes I didn’t get screenshots of at the time:
- learn the names/species of local plants, bugs, and birds where you live (iNaturalist or Merlin the bird app help with this)
- learn the rules to 10 new card games
- steal the colored paint cards from hardware store paint aisles and use them to make art
- try out every different apple variety you can find and rank them
- similarly LOTS of people in the notes doing soup quests, and a few cheese quests also
- similarly lots of people reading/watching certain amounts of media over the year, and tracking/rating it
- track the number of cats/dogs/etc you see over the year
there’s plenty more in there too :)

- eevee-williams: my 2018 one was so fun, i learned to make all the classic cocktails, i don’t do it a lot any more but i still do it sometimes, today i got home from work like ‘you know what would fix me? tequila sunrise’, and brother i was so right about that. it’s fixing me
- beatnikfreakiswriting: yeah! the year i turned 21 i made my new year’s resolution ‘wear more red’. It was fun, i wore way more red. i like red., year after i did ‘wear more green’ and you know what? I did that!, i now wear both red and green frequently.

if you’re afraid of roundabouts you shouldn’t be.. they’re beautiful pieces of roadway engineering that prevent much more anguish than they cause. loosen up and enjoy the experience of using a Roundabout next time you see one. they’re quite intuitive and much faster than a light

i think the near-extinction of people making fun, deep and/or unique interactive text-based browser games, projects and stories is catastrophic to the internet. i'm talking pre-itch.io era, nothing against it.
there are a lot of fun ones listed here and here but for the most part, they were made years ago and are now a dying breed. i get why. there's no money in it. factoring in the cost of web hosting and servers, it probably costs money. it's just sad that it's a dying art form.
anyway, here's some of my favorite browser-based interactive projects and games, if you're into that kind of thing. 90% of them are on the lists that i linked above.
- A Better World - create an alternate history timeline
- Alter Ego - abandonware birth-to-death life simulator game
- Seedship - text-based game about colonizing a new planet
- Sandboxels or ThisIsSand - free-falling sand physics games
- Little Alchemy 2 - combine various elements to make new ones
- Infinite Craft - kind of the same as Little Alchemy
- ZenGM - simulate sports
- Tamajoji - browser-based tamagotchi
- IFDB - interactive fiction database (text adventure games)
- Written Realms - more text adventure games with a user interface
- The Cafe & Diner - mystery game
- The New Campaign Trail - US presidential campaign game
- Money Simulator - simulate financial decisions
- Genesis - text-based adventure/fantasy game
- Level 13 - text-based science fiction adventure game
- Miniconomy - player driven economy game
- Checkbox Olympics - games involving clicking checkboxes
- BrantSteele.net - game show and Hunger Games simulators
- Murder Games - fight to the death simulator by Orteil
- Cookie Clicker - different but felt weird not including it. by Orteil.
if you're ever thinking about making a niche project that only a select number of individuals will be nerdy enough to enjoy, keep in mind i've been playing some of these games off and on for 20~ years (Alter Ego, for example). quite literally a lifetime of replayability.
since this post blew up, i've been wanting to do an addition with all of the recommendations from the comments and tags. but there's a lot of them. some people might be crazy enough to sit down and seriously put them all in one post with descriptions. those people are honestly sick in the head.
anyway, here's all of the recommendations from the reblogs. not all of them are text-based, but it's a great mixture of styles. also don't forget the links in the second paragraph of the OP which will take you to FMHY where there are a bunch more games listed.

artists fuck better because we turn sex into art, masterpieces, mattresses become canvases where we can paint our love to someone with bodies.
