I'm close to being done now, but I guess if you have experience doing actualngood video editing, then I could probably use some help polishing the trailer afterwards.

⚠️⚠️Emergency Commissions⚠️⚠️

I took a huge financial hit due to some issues with one of my student loans ($3,600 roughly). I really hate having to dig into my savings for things and would like to build it back up asap.

Please contact me on Discord if interested, my username is Shokuma

Please share‼️

I've also been thinking if I do release a trailer, I should probably finally make public discord server to go with it? But then I also have to fix some issues with the game itself... so much work to do, and only one of me to do it.

Been working on a trailer for Maya's Big Adventure, posting to see if anyone out there would be willing to help out on short notice. I'm about 40% through with it, but it's also literally my first time video editing, so any help or advice from someone more experienced would be greatly appreciated.

The answer is to have already had a job, lol
For those of us that didn't have a job I guess we can go fuck ourselves🙃

Thinking about the fact that being competent at game development (or anything else for that matter) is different from convincing people online that you're competent. So different that it feels impossible to focus on one without neglecting the other.

Yes I am job-hunting again and I hate it lol

De Blob's OST is indeed peak.
Though PMD explorers of sky is one of my favorite pokemon games so I gotta disagree there lol

a thing coming up that's supposed to show off a bunch of different games. Can't say exactly when it'll be, but me being me I wanna make sure I'm not the one people are waiting on lol

I might be able to come up with something, but probably not much. My own animation skills aren't the best and I'm short on time

So I kinda need to make a trailer for Maya's Big Adventure within the next week or so
and uh...
I still have no idea how I should go about that ngl lol. But I did at least go and record gameplay that I'll probably be able to use (just quickly ran through the entire game in 4 minutes for it)

all mono butt fans, step aside for the BUOY enjoyers

This in fact the optimal way to do it
maybe with the upper body sinking in a bit too lol

It is wild seeing dozens and dozens of media figures suddenly turning on Trump over Iran.

Especially cause they're all so pathetic that they still can't actually admit that they were wrong or made a mistake. Even now they still want to have it both ways, and for that they can go fuck themselves.

Also separate versions of the other angles

I've been told I don't draw Angi enough, so here's a bunch of drawings I made of her for no particular reason lol

still gotta watch it, but I'm mostly sympathetic to the idea that a galaxy movie should be more thoughtful and story-driven than the galaxy game rather than less. But it is dumb that some reviews of the movie have essentially devolved into actual rage-bait

New patreon post, this time featuring a brand new game! This is a tech demo I'm calling Maya's Playbox, and you can read all about it here! www.patreon.com/posts/new-ga...

yep. It's pushed by all these anti-social freaks who don't know or care to know how any of this actually works

Weh, feeling exceptionally depressed n dysphoric tonight. Birthday's in a month...

World's on fire and there are a billion of worthy causes, but even then, iffin someone wanted to throw something my way i'd appreciate it.

Love alla you's, please hold each other tight.

(4/4)So much of this continued push for AI is aiming to replace the surface-level work of a position, and it misses the value those workers are bringing to the table that AI is fundamentally incapable of providing. Always kinda knew this, but I think the lifeguard analogy perfectly illustrates it.

(3/4)The reason this doesn't work is obvious: lifeguards aren't paid to watch people, they're paid to save lives; it's in the name. A camera can't do that, and if you tried people would die.
On some level programmers are the same: they're paid to fix the problems in code and not just to write it.

(2/4)90-99% of the time, that is all a lifeguard does (I know because I was one lol). So why not just replace 90% of lifeguards with a digital camera, you'd save so much money right? Just have 1 lifeguard use modern tools to do the work of 10.

(1/4)Just had the most bizarre realization when reading a pro-AI comment on youtube.

People think AI can replace programmers because they think programmers are paid to write code. But this is like thinking that a lifeguard is paid to sit and watch people swim: It fundamentally misses the point.

You know...
I think I've decided that actually it was a good thing I looked up weird YouTube videos when I was "too young" to watch them. Cause knowing how weird shit can get instilled in me a terror of YouTube auto-play that I believe most normal people sorely lack, lol

sorry guys, I'm not funny enough to have an april fools gag for you lol

It was really fun! I don't really have much to compare it to, but everyone there was super welcoming and nice, and I got to meet all sorts of new faces there. My highlight was getting to watch so many people play my games for the first time, it was wonderful and informative seeing how people play

Glad I could do my part in getting through the 19 boxes of pizza we got that night. Only had 6 slices myself, but for me that's like double what I'd normally eat lol

Now back home after Sizecon! Had a blast there, got a lot of feedback on my games, and now I'm gonna get started acting on that feedback and making my games even better. I'll be releasing the tech demo I created for Sizecon as a patreon exclusive later this week, so look forward to that!

No I am probably not okay lol
