I think the first 5 times my partner made me watch it I was like "what even is this for?" and I still ask that but I like it now

as a game developer, watching @gameygame.com keeps me humble. and laughing

sometimes someone'll text and ask me what I'm up to, and I won't have the words to explain.

instead I'll draw some nonsense on my phone

brain's still mush from gdc so I'm modeling this fella instead of learning more godot

it's cool to be able to flow in blender after stubbornly avoiding it for so long

okay okay okay, godot things are happening

I'm gone for a week and you go and get a new addiction

I think San Francisco is trying to trap me here

Ahaha my flight got canceled, I guess GDC continues for me

game dev is cool and all, but talking this much made me wake up as a tenor

now I'm just vibing in my hotel room singing low notes
#gdc

I've overheard (and been in) 5+ conversations of people wishing AAA would make smaller/more interesting games #GDC

but my game is every game genre at the same time, that's a totally normal scope, right?

A GDC-relevant PSA:

Kiki’s Delivery Service is screening in 4K on the IMAX screen in Metreon next door on Thursday and Friday, and that TMNT II is also playing there on Friday. Go forth.

Sprained my ankle on a hike yesterday, gonna be an interesting GDC next week 😅

Was v pretty tho 💚

that's so real, I'm still often like "I'm not partially blind, so nbd," though I'm trying to go easier on myself and rest more often.

Glad you were productive, hope you can have some productive rest and feel better, too!

kinda depends on if you want variants and a textmark and stuff! mine start at $450 usd for iteration to a single variant

I have some room in my schedule so I'm looking for new soundtrack projects! I've been making music for games professionally for 15 years now. I'm open to almost any kind of game, but I'm looking for something more narrative or horror focused. Check out my work at

A screenshot of the Layers sub-window in a Photoshop document. It contains a layer called "Layer 5103" and multiple copies of "Layer 5903" after some color-coded column groups. These layer names suggest that over 5,000 layers have been created while working on this file.

how did i get here, i blacked out

I didn't know DARE was also preparing me to "just say no" to cold plunges. The peer pressure is intense. 🥶❌

A digital drawing of two silly cartoony cats hugging. The left one is bright red, the right one is bright green.

I was poking my colorblind partner about how distinguishable two swatches were, and they noticed the swatches looked kinda like cats. So I made them cats!

The screenwriter of my fav star wars movie once tweeted that he liked the soundtrack to my game (full credit to @visager.bsky.social for being an incredible musician) and I never took a screenshot before the site exploded because I am a fool.

What if every rapture has been legit and just nobody has been eligible?

Heck yes, gotta love my fav artist using my fav color palette 💚🧡

it took me less than an hour to add randomized spawning because of this.

I gotta keep it up with the comments

omg, I was dreading revisiting some code I did ages ago, and I finally did it and it's FULLY COMMENTED. thank you so much, past me.

But fr, the spiders are pretty chill

I like to simplify the seasons to
Ants
"Someone tell the birds it's only 5AM"
Spiders
Dark

I'm probably a weirdo because I'm taking an intro interior design class, and each time they assign a documentary I'm like "no, please, just make me read a 20 page essay, pleeeeaaase 🫠"

just refreshed my personal logo, pretty hyped about it

pebble says it's time to stop pattern drafting and to pet her instead

I was told switching from Maya would free me of this curse 🙃
