Palaeo- and Neogetmanic / Staro- a novogetmanština [qgn]
Originally started as a bunch of modifications to Czech. It went for a highly German vibe with some Japanese. Puns were a large part of the vocabulary. No longer actively developed, though there exist some undocumented corona additions, like "nosoplenařit", to wear and make people wear a face cloth.
Instead, there are plans for Neogetmanic, which in addition to connecting all the Palaeogetmanic components is more Ponaszymu-Japanese with some Arabic, and is to incorporate the vocabulary assembled for GeSeL and a spinoff of Palaeogetmanic called Budhót'n. Basically something like English, which is really 3 languages in a trench coat - Old Norse via Anglosaxon, Latin via French, and Galeic. Only in the case of Neogetmanic, these languages are all from different families, ensuring variety. This should help with writing poetry, as there will be more options how to rhyme words, and the result will be mostly intelligible for fellow Western Slavic japanologists or arabists, like Jabberwocky.
Onomatopoeic Creole [qon]
Just a dead experiment. Was dependent on parent language's interjections. There are some onomatopoeic roots in GeSeL and a more sophisticated conlang with onomatopoeic cluster primitives is planned. Don't ever talk to your babies like that, their brain can handle all the natural language complexity to find patterns in. Also, play classical or jazz to them instead of this Baby Shark nonsense.
Successor languages GeSeL, it's dialect Onomasemitic, and Blobl incorporate onomatopoeic primitives.
GeSeL / G3S3L - Getman's Generic Genuinely Silly Stupid Semitic Language [qge]
Gone are the high school days when I had the time for putting in the content for GeSeL, which was mostly copied over from Semitic roots and Japanese dictionaries. Instead, it's unique structure has served as a useful topic for a bunch of semester works and it now has a database architecture and a web UI called GeSeLator. It's 1 deployment away to a better-advertised server from making others add the content for me, like a public questionnaire. I can filter out the junk.
There's a fundamental flaw in GeSeL, and it's the same as for Esperanto or other too regular languages. There are only grammatical rhymes, which makes it unsuitable for writing poetry. Maybe one of the letter order mods could fix it.
The alphabet is really good, so I'll use variations of it in later pure conlangs, and also extend the mapping table co cover most scripts that are in Unicode. Those which can not amass 27 letters (21+1 consonants, 4+1 vowels) will be hacked with accents or will have to use digraphs.
GeSeL has many root packages, giving way to many dialects. Each dialect will eventually associate a different grammar, becoming a descendant language.
S -> Getmarabic, later to become GeSeL 2
J -> Semitic Japanese, continuing to japanify
O -> Onomasemitic, a precursor to Blobl
A/Q/I -> AcroSem, becoming Vocalized Acronym Creole [qoa] with vowels in roots and more English-derived short words
H -> CRCreole, an attempt to keep Hashtalk within only 8 consonants
V -> Slavitic, a transitional language to OSloJ
Hashtalk [qht]
Basically vaporware, waiting for some hash-grinding scripts. It's supposed to correct the poetry flaw of GeSeL by rhyming completely random words. It can serve as a password hash dictionary, may be useful in cybersecurity. The only problem is the resulting words would be too long, even for long broken MD5. CRCtalk [qcc] could maybe be frendlier and would fit in the GeSeL root system, but no one really cares about checksums.
Essentially, Hashtalk is a reimplementation of Ptydepe from Havel's Memorandum. GeSeL is supposed to be Chorukor. The alphabet will be the same as GeSeL. The grammar could be stolen from toki pona, with the words now being very specific and arbitrarily numerous.
Gudhotn [qgh]
A streamlined dialect and a spelling reform of Budhót'n [qbh], which is mostly a relex of Western Slavic inspired by Palaeogetmanic. It will be a subset of Neogetmanic with a Budhót'n grammar and share vocabulary with OSloJ. It won't use the GeSeL alphabet, but will share it with Neogetmanic.
A Á B C Č D Ď Ʒ Ǯ E É F G H Ȟ I Í J K L Ĺ M N Ň O Ó P Q R Ŕ Ř S Š T Ť U Ú V W Y Ý Z Ž
Optionally Ǎ Ě Ǐ Ǒ Ǔ Y̌ Ą Ę Į Ǫ Ų Y̨ Â Ê Î Ô Û Ŷ and any combination. Maybe Ů for legacy ethymology and Å Ä A̋ Ö Ő Ü Ű for loanword support and expressiveness. Acutes over sonorants and funny caron consonants may come up too in interjections.
Also the Latin reabjadification still holds. Fonts and keyboard drivers need to get their shit together and support accent stacking properly as Unicode won't be adding any precomposed letters. For some reason the accents come in writing order, not typing order.
OSloJ ("donkeys") - Obecný Slovanský Jazyk (Generic Slavic Language) [qoj]
A more sophisticated dialect and mod of GeSeL, with a grammar vaguely resembling a Slavic one. It will have access to the same vocabulary, with a new V package with Slavic words. It will differ from Gudhotn and Neogetmanic in that it will use a GeSeL alphabet (with minor modifications) and have considerably simpler and more mathematical grammar. It's targeted as an auxlang for a broader range of Slavs with odd interests than basically private Western-Slav-centric Gudhotn and incomprehensibly random artlang Neogetmanic. Like puns, Slav memes will play a great role in OSloJ, so it can be guaranteed that "čeburek" and "kompot" will mean what you expect them to mean.
C is now only TS, J is now as in IPA or Esperanto, Q W X is CH SH ZH being roughly similar to Cyrillic Ч Ш Ж (Č Š Ž recommended if charset allows), Y is yeru or schwa. Palatalization is assimilation.
Grammar moves away from transfixes, every legacy root is now vocalized *a*a* or *y*y*. Short words are replaced with Slavic ones. A backwards compatible V root pack will be provided too. Origin table gets a new Osloj column for OSloJ transcriptions.
Slavitic, OSloJ, and Gudhotn form pons asinorum between GeSeLania and Budhót'nska, without going into Neogetmanic. They are mostly the product of trying to interconnect databases. Satemic broadens the zone of OSloJ. May have some lore implications.
GeSeL 2: Arabic Boogaloo [qga]
After acquainting myself with actual Arabic grammar, I'll stop stealing from Japanese and remake the grammar to allow writing of profound anasheed, finally fixing the poetry problem for good, and realizing the true vision of Getmarabic.
Alphabet is to remain the same as GeSeL. If I can't find sufficient regularity in Arabic morphology, Root table gets a new Class column.
Satemic - Sanskrit-inspired satem-type Indo-European creole [qst]
In descendant Indo-European languages, there are words that haven't really changed at all since Proto-Indo-European. That's why Latvian and Lithuanian are highly acclaimed by linguists, since they have preserved certain words that most other languages have replaced. There is also a significant Roma population which speaks Romani, which is related to Hindi which builds on Sanskrit which is also satem-type. Roma have nothing to do with Romans nor Romanians (whose language is centum-type), that's why we call Roma Gypsy or Zigeuner, but that's racist somehow. Slavic languages are also satem-type, which explains the odd familiarity of some Sanskrit words. So I want to take these words and modernize them according to the language they best survived in, while throwing out the fusional grammatical cruft (isolating languages are the best for learning, symbolic may be more fun) and filling the gaps with some internationally recognizable words. I suspect the Indoeuropean ablaut, that one bit of nonconcatenative morphology, may be a leftover from Nostratic superfamily or sprachbund, which also encompasses transfixive Afro-Asiatic and hyperconcatenative Altaic languages, including Japanese and Korean. And that's why I've compared Japanese to Moravian with how "ei" and "ou" are pronounced.
The centum-satemic split is said to be overcome, as there are some centum languages in satem land and vice versa, and some Indoeuropean languages are neither, and the consecutive sound changes have led to some crossing into the territory of other type, not to mention centum loanwords in satem languages undergoing their own changes. If you are very political, the art direction of Satemic can be explained as the Russo-Indian relations dating back to Soviet times when USA supported Pakistan, and the national food is curry potatoes with onion (see the recipe for KGBB). Also the Baltics, Afghanistan, and Sikkim are occupied, the Eastern Bloc is active, so Satemia is a continuous "Russkij Mir" territory, and there's Roma infestation. Quite a stretch for a zonal constructed language, but Indoeuropean words are mostly cognate.
Inglish [qig]
So far only a spelling reform for more convenient speech synthesis exists. I'm not sure if I am truly bilingual, so I don't have any plans to alter the grammar beyond meme speak. Furthermore, English is already a perfectly working auxlang, and in the few cases it's not, Russian, German, French, Spanish or Chinese usually work. I may maintain a list of some silly puns. Also I have tried making an emoji regraphemization of Shavian and Deseret.

Blobl - A complety original conlang for once [qlb]
A lot of complaints can be made about copying existing vocabulary and grammar, as well as using mainly Latin script. So this conlang will bring onomatopoeic vocabulary primitives giving way to coded classification, old GeSeL grammar hacks, 2nd order modalized predicate logic, base 16 number system, a featural script, nonconcatenative nonarabic morphology, and unusual phonemes, mostly from the unused spaces of Neogetmanic alphabet. The name "Blobl" is provisional. Bl as in blah, twice for plural, o for good.
Toki pona pakala pi toki Nipon [qtk]
Toki Pona, but with Japanese grammar and phonology, as well as some Finnish agglutination, maybe extra unneeded words because why not. Possibly a learning aid to practice agglutinative grammars. Taso. Ponamutemute.
