Am I bugging?

6x7 = 42

Is 67 a subtle nod to Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy? Everything I have heard would suggest it's meaningless though.

"Game Workers Conference is a place where we can meet as equals, free from the execs and CEOs that have been exploiting our labor and laying off our fellow workers."

If your kindle was impacted, don't buy a new one! Jailbreak it.

My 2019 pixelbook is more useful than when I bought it after jailbreaking it.

Support indie animation! The industry needs a shakeup.

holy fuck so it was real.

Just added another few great devs to the narrative indie game pack!

If you like indie games, narrative driven, or character driven games, give the pack a follow!

And if you know any new devs that should be added, comment and let me know.

do not ask yourself whether or art is good instead ask is it sincere was it cathartic was it fun to make is it made by me and don’t forget to stay silly

I would wager it's a balance between intention. Projects that start out of passion or for the love of the craft are for the developer, and at least for me, in the early stages can feel taboo in a superstitious sense to talk about. Jumping in intention from craft to product changes the relationship.

Give a fish a man and they will eat for the day,

Teach a fish to man, and they will forever wonder what the purpose of their fish lives are, endlessly trying to make a mark on their fishy world.

I made a terrible mistake. My partner and I just started and marathoned The Amazing Digital Circus. Now we have to wait until June 19th for the grand finale 😭.

wouldn't it be funny if EVERYONE blocked this Attie AI account @ bsky.app/profile/atti... before they could do anything with it

2026 but worse

Trash Tower Zero was the only thing keeping me sane for a year while job searching after being laid off from a dream job. I am grateful for having the chance to work on it.

Although the circumstances in which prompted the project was stressful, I had a lot of fun and learned a lot on this project. Sucks.

Good opportunity if you're in Europe!

Yeah, backups are fine. Whatever works in the pipeline. The tools are there to support the workflow, not dictate the workflow.

I just recently stood up a local forgejo server so I can sync my project across devices. This way I can work on pixel art on the train, push and pull on my main laptop over the weekend to place in engine.

I don't often have to revert, but it does give me the confidence to make sweeping changes.

For anyone else that wants to change it back.

Visual Studio Code, don't change my theme! Just let me work in peace without having to figure out how to undo something in every dang update!

I used to use Evernote, then OneNote, then Notion, but now I use a self-hosted wiki on an old PC and piles of notebooks. If it isn't open source and available to fork, it's liable for another migration I don't have time for.

I appreciate that you are putting positivity into the world 😊.
