Ive been slowly releasing my #TTRPG scenarios and as of today I have made as much April as every other month combined! ๐
Thats right, I just had my second paying customer ever! ๐
Which is actually a nice surprise since payment is optional and they're available for free: itch.io/c/7325529/dr...

Hope you're feeling better soon!
A screenshot of the Level Editor for Soulfused, showing an open level with meta data and a map.
Good news: I'm finally back in the level editor, which I've been avoiding for a while. Adding the content to the game is tedious work...
Bad news: I'm editing the level editor more than the levels...
I'll get there eventually, I'm sure ๐

Home made teriyaki sourdough pizza with shredded nori!
Home made teriyaki sourdough pizza.
Had a little time home alone today and it just happened to be sourdough feeding day. So I did the only reasonable thing and spent the time making pizza!

Still looking for some #indiegames for the list, come tell me about your game!
#IndieGameDev #VideoGames #Gaming
Hey #IndieGameDev, we feature obscure/unknown indie games on our show and we want to hear all about YOUR game for potential coverage!
No keys, no charge, no catch. If we like the sound of your game we buy it, play it, and leave a Steam review for it.
Let's see your games!
#IndieDev #IndieGames
Slightly mixed feelings on this one! While part of me hopes my game will gain plenty of great reviews and therefore won't qualify for your videos once it gets released, your videos are amazing and I'd be honored if Soulfused was included ๐
I just need to finish it first ๐ฌ
Those night vision baby cameras are super handy!
But also a bit creepy whenever the baby just lies there quietly in the dark staring directly into the camera with wide open eyes...
I hope so! I'm making one of those as well ๐
Looking forward to give Emerald Ferns a try! ๐
Managed to actually reclaim my reserved username!
The original account was from 2012, most likely last used in 2015 ๐
Had to dig out a now mostly abandoned and unused email address, but it worked!
Amazing to see the event still ongoing!
Fun fact: Soulfused is not my first text adventure!
In 2013 I created a text game inspired by the quote "You have to sign a piece of paper" for Molyjam.
This was a Flash game in AS3.
The source might be lost, but here's

Thanks! Exile and NGJ from those years are some of my favourite memories.
An unexpected chat about an old project sent me into nostalgia mode and I spent my sleep deprived time rambling about it in a blog post. The first actual blog post I've written in years.
Oh, and yes, I have a blog again now!

I'm just guessing here, but my phone charger might be experiencing some issues... ๐ฌ
I mentioned a few months ago that I was working on cleaning up some of my #ttrpg one-shots for #Dread to share.
Well, I just got done with the second one!
This one is actually the first scenario I ever wrote, though it's evolved through the years.
Check it out here:

Yeah, but like... I don't want enemies. Fellow game devs should be friends!
Sure, getting visibility is hard and reaching players harder, but I'd rather be part of a community who push each other forward instead of forcing their way through. Isn't that better for all? Maybe I'm just optimistic...
Every single recipe for cloudberry jam I can find: Slowly heat the berries on medium until they reach the boiling point, then let them simmer for a short time.
Every comment section on a cloudberry jam recipe: NOOO!!! Do not boil the cloudberries!!!
I've been neglecting my #running lately. I've already got tickets for a couple of upcoming running events later this year and I'm feeling behind. ๐ฌ
I need to get back to it but between work, baby and gamedev I'm not finding the energy. So far I've only ran once this year... ๐
Oh, is it #WishlistWednesday again already? Time flies!
Soulfused is a modern take on the classic text adventures. Dive into a dystopian future and the role of a newly converted Soulfused soldier in this keyboard-only command-based adventure!

Which was all fun and games until some months ago, when the word appeared in a project at work. It took me an embarrassingly long time searching and debugging before I realized that the word could, quite realistically, be a valid part of the data set we were currently working with. ๐ฌ
Not quite an asset, but I've been using the word BANANA as my go-to placeholder for short strings, as well as a "I just need to debug.Log here to see..."-filler word. I've basically conditioned myself so that the word itself stands out as jarringly to me as the Unity "Missing texture"-pink...
A slightly different #screenshotsaturday this time. I've been using @sentry.io to find issues in the Soulfused demo and the number of unresolved issues just hit zero! ๐
I should make another build soon so you can find new ways to break my game. ๐
Play the demo: s.team/a/3919240/
#GameDev #IndieGame
An overview of stats for the Soulfused demo: 250 play sessions, 198 unique players, ~40% Completion rate, 21461 Commands used, 0 Easter Eggs Found. Demo completion time: Fastest: 13:41. Median: 30:43. Average: 33:59. Slowest: 1:55:41.
The Soulfused demo just hit 250 play sessions! ๐
The 40% completion rate blows my mind! Granted, the demo isn't long, but still...
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go see if the easter eggs actually work ๐ฌ

Ah, yes. The amazing AI tools if the 19th century were definitely something! ๐
Seriously though, it can be fun to run it on your own work just to see, but these tools should in no way be blindly trusted. I'm worried that might be happening more than we know...
Figured I'd try this on my own code to see if I'm an AI or not. Ouch...๐ฌ
Though this tool might claim otherwise, I can assure you all code is hand crafted with both love and frustration in more or less equal parts. ๐
And I have the git history to prove it!
#GameDev #IndieGame #MadeWithUnity #NoAI
Unusually neat, no syntax errors and no comments with business logic... If it wasnt for the "85% chance of AI"-part, that would have sounded like high praise! ๐
As someone doing game dev as a hobby alongside a full time job, I'm currently in the process of finishing up my first solo project for release.
I'd be happy with a 4 and ecstatic if it went higher! ๐
It took me longer than it should have to get there ๐
Just created a #linkedin page for my one person game dev company. I even wrote a post and everything! I feel so official now ๐
