GuyEngine keeps getting better and better! I love tinkering around with this plugin and it's become a surprisingly versatile tool in my song creation, and not just for "making songs that sound like X console" !
I want to make a correction on the first part of this thread
I made the sounds and music for these games, I didn't make the whole thing. I really couldn't have done the music and sounds without the wonderful people I've mentioned!
Huge Shoutouts to Andrew, Ella, Dylan, and Tyler for being amazing partners in these game this past weekend! I hope you enjoy playing these games and I look forward to hearing what you think!
This game is a combo submission for Cabin Jam and Ludum Dare 59
Trail Signal is a simple toy where you draw lines and release balls on your drawn track. The balls make sound on these lines, and change depending on speed and color!

The first game is Just Keep Driving.
You are on a stretch of road, slowly running out of gas, while you drive by a colorful cast of characters. Can you successfully flag them down and continue on your journey?

Thinking about my previous about the weekend, I forgot to promote stuff I made this past weekend! I'll have more deets later, but I participated in RVA Game Jams cabin jam! about 20 game devs stayed under one roof and game jammed!
Here are the 2 games I made
I don't know if I made a post about this already, but I'll say it again.
I don't want to be a content creator!!
I had this discussion this past weekend again, but being freelance game audio, it feels like 'm being pushed into that direction. It's absolutely not fun.
First devlog goes live on Friday. Gonna run a premiere so I can watch it with y'all! It's been a pretty long time since I've done this kind of video editing. Be sure to let me know what you like and what you want to see more of!

Screw it I'm going back to Uru
One of my least favorite things right now is people calling things "(insert thing here) slop"
Can we just reserve slop for A.I, the one thing that deserves the title.
Whaaatt, they have PWHL cards?! Low-key really cool. Now I wanna get a pack.

A bag of meow mix that says "now more flavor"
I was at the store today and noticed this bag of cat food says "now more flavor."
Well ... How do you know?

For reference, this is said game
I'm already getting this game, you didn't have to convince me even harder by paying tribute to one of my favorite games of all time!

I can second what @stimulusfunctions.bsky.social shared. Great group of people! As much as I like the dancefloor EDM, it's also nice to have a space for more intelligent listening and discussion of electronic music.

I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.
Meme from MilesInTransit. Shows a meter that says "foamer meter". The meter is broken because it's maxed out.
OMG OMG OMG, I'm on the articulated bus again!!
I wanted to take more pictures, but i didn't expect it and I felt like the one picture inside was pushing it for people's privacy.
I really like this bus, it's big and spacious!
Yeah, I know, I'm really nerding out on this, but this is a great step forward for transit in this city!

OMG OMG OMG, The day has finally come!

Thinking about nostalgia lately. I've even been feeling it for decades like the 00's or 10's, even though things weren't that great then. Maybe because I've been concerned about living in the moment then. Thinking about how living in the moment now is pretty bleak, so maybe I won't have it for 20's

I've been getting these too. I'd sooner be homeless living under an overpass than use my talents to train an A.I model.
