I plan to have more development updates out for this project soon.
I've been animating and working on commissions quite a lot in radio silence, but I feel like everything's starting to come together now... wow...

That's what I think of literally every time LOL
I kept trying to explain to the prof why that was poor design... but nothing I said really mattered in the end lmao
Well yeah, that's a given!
The thing is... the only other gamedev classes I've taken before weren't that great.
The prof that taught them had no industry experience, and it showed with how he taught. The final project was designing a single level (Platformer / RPG / Shooter) with 100 enemies.
Nope! Moawling!
I GET TO PLAY VIDEO GAMES FOR HOMEWORK
First day of school today...! Apparently, my gamedev professor helped design Mommy Mearest from FNF LOL
I'm not even big on rhythm games... but I think the fact that someone from that dev team is teaching my gamedev classes is really promising.
This year, I'd like to be more productive overall. I really want to push myself.
Ultimately, I plan to release both Asher and ZERO for RoA Workshop this year.
I'll also be providing development updates here. Let's do this!
Gen AI is so frustrating, because on the surface level its an incredible convenience and is especially useful for stuff like backend work.
But there's that aspect of it that is legally dubious, completely stifles creativity, and threatens jobs, and harms the environment, and...
AI music is becoming harder for me to detect, which pisses me off so much. On 3 seperate occasions, I realized mid-song that I was listening to a Suno thing
Thankfully, Suno isn't perfect (still produces weird riffs) + a lot of channels are silly enough to leave obvious signs (AI channel art)
I just finished watching Breaking Bad for the first time
Holy shit. That was the best show I've ever watched and it's not even close
I always think this when I watch TGA. When we're on the 500th doom and gloom hyper realistic game announcement, there's only so much I can take before thinking: "Huh...? This isn't the same game?"
I kind of want video games to look more video gamey, I guess.
Personally, I don't like the abundance of games with "hyper realistic" art direction. I hate that the industry celebrates that so much and gives a side eye to experimental visuals.
It reminds me of how 2D animation is seen as "childish" in the broader entertainment sphere.

I FIGURED IT OUT!!!! I BEAT MY ANXIETY!!!! (for today only)
SPAWN from Deltarune is such an insane song what the hell?????
We need more indie characters with Sauce™
I'm talking Sonic Adventure 1+2 or Riders levels of Sauce™
Not a single character I've seen in any indie game has nailed that for me yet... hnngg...
Woahh!! This is awesome!
outfit swaps of spooky robed creatures by @spadster.bsky.social and Maraslumunus cause its halloween and we gettin spooky and ominous up in here
Tysm!! "Sharp" was definitely the goal with her. I'm glad it's noticeable!
whoever that cream was on crossworlds (JustMonika (?)) i will never forget you...
Writing is so hard. Sometimes, I feel like I'm being too direct, but other times... I feel like I'm being too vague to properly convey my intent.
... maybe all of my characters should speak in exposition instead...
I wish Radical Highway was real.
oooo the creator of college presentations when i get my hands on you
... my partner and I went to a local flea market a few weeks ago.
We saw this, and were in awe.
Then, suddenly, a mother speaks to her child.
"Look, bud! Italian Brain Rot!"

After some time, we've managed to finalize our cast! Please, take a look.
