Bula dear friends!
I've been writing a lot of posts about past events, now's time for a bit of newer content: a blog post about our time on the island of Makogai in Fiji.
Iggy the dinghy has seam problems, we explore remnants of an old leper colony and also try and search for the infamous turtle farm.

Hello all,
This is the second part of the blog post of our time in New Zealand, this is a technical post, that talks about all of the projects we did on Pino.
We go into a lot of detail on the process, materials and costs of it all. Each project has a 'takeaway' bit at the end, in which we talk about what we learned, or what we wished we had done instead.
We wrote this complex text, in ho...

New episode? NEW EPISODE!
Sorry for the delay, we've had a hard time finding a place with internet signal. Enjoy :)
Hello all,
This is the first part of a blog entry that I've written of our time in New Zealand. We spent 8 months of our lives there, much has happened and it can't all be said in a single entry.
This text focuses on our visit to Pakatoa, a private island in NZ.
Read the story now, and tell us what you think.

Aboard Pino, we're always looking for low-power activities, playing music is one of these. Here's a small capsule on small instruments, and on building a Raspberry Pi toy piano.

We have made our little vector editor available through the browser!
Thanks to the people who supported the project either through @patreon or @itchio, we're happy to finally be able to make this available to everyone else.
Rekka went through notes of our time in French Polynesia, and made a blog post about Huahine.
In this story, we continue our search for internet, find insects in our food and tell all of our near-crash onto a reef.

Our latest episode is out! In which, we show some of the projects that we've been working on, and the everyday-life here in Fiji.
We've always wanted to document our travels in writing, as well as in video, and since you've all expressed interest in it we decided to make it a regular thing!
We compiled a lot of notes over the years, of things that happened that are worth telling. Rekka is going through these notes, and making stories with them. All of these will be posted on our blog, the older stories will be back-dated to avoid con...
Entering a store, with the goal of purchasing kitchenware can be a dizzying experience. There are many choices, but few are worth your money and attention.
An ideal kitchen will have as few items as possible, filled with items that make you happy and that you chose with purpose. With this in mind, for a tool to be awarded a place in your home, it needs to be effective and versatile.

Hey all!
We have some new content for you, we've added a blog to our website 100r.co.

As you know, I have a story called Wiktopher, I started to write it while in Tahiti last year. Being there we had little distractions, but after arriving in New Zealand it was harder to continue, because of all of the work we did on Pino.
Now that we are back on the islands, I have the time and focus to write again, expect more updates on the story, alongside with updates 2018-07-05 04:28:41 +0000 UTC

Hey guys!
In case you missed it, Devine's talk at the Play By Play Games Festival in Wellington was released on youtube!
We hope to do more talks in the future, and to attend more awesome game events.

After 8 months in NZ, we leave Opua and head northward towards Fiji. We had a slow passage, it took us 15 days (we even went backwards a little :<). It wasn't ideal, but at sea the wind governs all.
We had some wonderful times while becalmed on the water, but we also experienced some big weather (a good test for our new main and tiller!).
We are 1,200nm closer to Japan ლ ( ◕ ᗜ ◕ ) ლ
Thank you for watching!

Hi!
We have just arrived in Fiji, we're currently editing the latest episode, we've been working on a little special project called Pico. Half programming language, half something-else-which-I-cannot-find-a-name-for. Here's a sort of guide.
We're making this available to you so you can give it a shot until its full release. It might be release...

It's getting cold, it's time to go.
Pino gets its wings back, we do some last minute projects and get ready to sail north.
Thank you New Zealand, it's been amazing.

Hey guys!
It's that time of the month again, time for a detailed write-up of what we have been working on.
All in all, we got Pino ready to leave New Zealand, all the while making changes to Dotgrid, Marabu, Wiktopher and Marabu.
Dotgrid (vector line tool)
Implemented radial symmetry, made the app faster for Raspberry Pi, improved general UX and implemented option to quickly export icons.

The rabbits are busy these days! Our list of project is getting shorter everyday.
Pino is an old boat, a lot of of the current systems and gear aboard are in need of change.
Devine has been busy learning how to work with raspberry Pi, starting with our weather station. The goal is to start small, to then work our way up to more complex projects. If you're interested in this stuff, che...
When living on the water, your home is always in motion, swaying with the currents and winds. Knowing that your vessel is not permanently tethered to the earth is a good feeling, it means you can go anywhere.
We've always had difficulty taking public transportation, we don't have a driver's license either. Our primary mode of transport has always been a bicycle, it's quiet, and we're free to move ourselves around wherever, and whenever we want. Traveling by sailboat, is taking...

Hey guys!
Our focus this month has been Pino; being window-less, made it difficult to focus at times. But, don't worry, we still had time to do plenty of updates, namely to Dotgrid, our Weather Station, Wiktopher, Markl and GrimGrains.

This month, we started some Raspberry Pi projects, like our Weather Station. We are also in the process of setting up work computers with it.
We are currently working on building an AIS, stay turned for updates on that.

Coffee is an important part of our morning routine.

Hey guys!
Our focus right now is still Markl; this, interspersed with updates on Left, Oquonie, Dotgrid, Hiversaires and Wiktopher. HundredRabbits is very busy!
All of our games and apps are back on the App Store currently, we apologize for taking so long to do it. Developer certificates expiring while at sea made things difficult for us. A...

Hi!
This month, we tackled some of the bigger projects on Pino: replacing the standing rigging, removing the windows and hauling the boat out of the water (for a repaint).
Spent time working between bouts of rain and scorching sun, weather in Whangarei is weird like that :/!!

Visit it here.
It's something that we've been meaning to work on for some time, having a portfolio page that represents you is vital. We've added a "current projects" section, so you can see what Rekka is working on.
Of course, this includes advancements on W...
Hiversaires is finally back, after a long absence. And it is playable on Mac, Linux and Windows.
For those who don't know, this game was the first part of a series of textless games, that also includes the isometric adventure Oquonie. It features a dark world, filled with symbols and writings. You must make your way through its entangled corridors.
This port from the mobile version was made possible with the he...
