Themes!
About themes and the Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles.
#120 · · readAs you might not have noticed, my website now offers you to choose a theme according to your liking. Inspired by Max Böck's website, I wanted my themes to follow a theme (ha!).
While the themes on Max's website take inspiration from Mario Kart 64 tracks (there's Koopa Beach, Choco Mountain and Rainbow Road among others), I wanted a similar vibe, following another 90s obsession of mine: The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (or Hero Turtles as they were called in Europe because "Ninja" sounded too violent).
My childhood was dominated by the Turtles: I remember the action figures, a TMHT school bag that came with a pencil case, watching the cartoon series and live-action movies and playing some of the video games–my favourite was the 1993 Tournament Fighters on the SNES. I was a huge Turtles fan and with today's release, I want to do them justice: pick your niqwithq flavour according to your favourite Hero Turtle. Leo's theme will remain the default theme for new visitors, because let's be honest, he simply was the coolest member of the gang (and also he was the bluest 🤷♂️).
There will be unlockable themes in the future! Stay posted for hints. I'll be happy to receive feedback regarding colour accessibility and of course: your favourite Turtles memory.
Cowabunga, everybody! ✌️
