Hi guys! You might be seeing Dinkle, but it's me speaking! You may be wondering what's going on!

Dinkle Tournament is being totally overhauled. Seven out of the eight characters from the original tournament have been replaced with new ones I'm much more willing to go the distance with, and tracks/art will be of way higher quality. 

This isn't to say this project is gonna be a huge production or anything - I'm specifically keeping things "low ambition", in the hopes that I'll actually *finish* the project. Most matches will lack unique art and have just one phase, for instance. In addition, round 1 hype tracks will serve to introduce the character, and they'll be short! Think 1 minute at the shortest, 2 minutes at the very longest.

I've got a good deal of content already in the wings, and I think it's really my strongest work yet. I'm super excited to share it with you! Reveals and matches will begin after a few more pieces of content are in place. Okay, bye! : )

ʀɪᴅᴇᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴇ.

Hi! This is the first of a few tracks that were made for W/L Finals which didn't end up in the round. It's a phase for winner's finals that I was never too big on (I couldn't fix it up because I lost all my old FLPs moving PCs) and I preferred for both matches to have the same amount of tracks anyway. But I figure there's no point keeping it hidden, so here you go!

Nuclear Winter

Tigimerci (6).mp3

I’m saying this for the last time, from my heart
I’m stronger without you… without you!

Morning came, I got up, there’s a mark on my face
The weight of the past was heavy, now it’s lost its place
When you left, silence filled up every room
I thought it was over, then I found myself too
We lived too fast, your lies were always near
Maybe I’m to blame, my heart was just too real
I chased you just to make the darkness end
But what you called “us” was only longing in the end
I fell, I stood up, learned it on my own
I threw the chains off, left them at the door
I crossed out the past with a red line today
My breath feels different now, I took tomorrow back my way

I looked back and saw myself in the mirror
I can walk alone, I learned it much later
I looked to the sky, heard a voice inside
I found my strength, my heart aligned

I’m stronger without you, breathing deep
I left the darkest days behind me
You thought I broke, but I won’t return
I walk my own road, now it’s my turn

I’m stronger without you, I know it’s true
Those chains don’t hold me like they used to
I’m saying this for the last time, from my heart
I’m stronger without you… without you!

I looked in the mirror, it said “get up, it’s long”
Not what you lost, but what you gained moves you on
Maybe it was good with you, but it didn’t last
Even my silence scared you from the past
Empty messages, fake words, half-made plans
My heart wanted truth, you only had scams
There’s a fire in me now, no one can stop
My road’s ahead of me, I walk—you stay and watch
I made peace with the scars that made me who I am
I swallowed the pain, still ran in the slam
No matter how you run, you’ll hear my voice
Even if I fall again, I won’t lose myself by choice

I looked back and saw myself in the mirror
I can walk alone, I learned it much later
I looked to the sky, heard a voice inside
I found my strength, my heart aligned

I’m stronger without you, breathing deep
I left the darkest days behind me
You thought I broke, but I won’t return
I walk my own road, now it’s my turn

I’m stronger without you, I know it’s true
Those chains don’t hold me like they used to
I’m saying this for the last time, from my heart
I’m stronger without you… without you!

Without You
