A new update is out on Plastic Reality's beta branch!
It's got some super important Mondrian Maker bug fixes & the first shot at using ANY controller you have plugged in as long as you select it in the main menu.
Hop on the beta branch & send feedback please.
Daily reminder that my game is one freakin' dollar right now.
Back to cooking up Mondrian Moments shorts! This time around it's a quick little preview of Stamping, which will save you SO much time building your levels.
Oh and Mondrian is 90% off this week. $0.99! That's just $3.99 for a family of four.
When I've got all three open at once you know I'm feeling crafty.
Feed your cool game to the Old Indie Gods! Slake their gamelust! Help us revel in the old magic rituals of @dayofthedevs.org!
(also it's just a really cool way to get your indie game some love)
Step 1: End the MCAS
Step 2: AI everything
I hate it here.
Got some nice bug fixes in this latest update.
And look, I don't ask for much, but please go download the demo, give it 10 minutes, and leave a review? It's free, it's smol, and it runs on a potato. And if you like it, add the full game to your wishlist. It'll be on sale soon!
Mannn imagine boasting that your platform promises product ownership & as soon as it shuts down you yank said ownership from everyone. What happened to the power of the ledger? What happened to "blockchain will solve it"?
Nah. ZIP files & physical media will solve it.
This is on the DEMO for Mondrian, btw. Try it out for yourself! It's free!

I unfortunately don't get a lot of reviews on my games, but when I do, they look like this half the time, and I know it was all worth it.
11 years ago today, the first Mondrian level was built. And no, this is no joke! Happy birthday Metahex, and to the Mondrian series too!

Were we not literally JUST talking about this the other day????
And a badass!
With next gen consoles pushing $1k, I'm picturing console exclusives becoming "designer games" that cost $150 or even $200 apiece, luxury experiences that can only be enjoyed by general audiences via streaming. This'll turn console gaming into MTV's Cribs.
"Come & see how I'm playing."
Why am I picturing Pocket Tanks but on a golf course?
And yes, with the same music.

What frustrates me even more than that is the people who don't believe good games can't find an audience yet aren't aware there were 20,000 games released last year alone. It's not an uphill struggle; it's a clifface.
That's enough @officialpax.bsky.social for one year.
@sonicmega.bsky.social I deeply apologize for not being able to come say hi. I only had an hour for lunch & spent 55 minutes of it in line. But I do hope you received the communique via the excellent and highly understanding Enforcer.
PAX East Day 1 flew by. I've made lots of new friends but have not been able to catch up with old friends at all. Ain't that the way it always goes though?
Nada. Zip. And I even asked the candy store clerk. 😭
No luck finding these so far. Will be checking another store before heading to the convention center a bit later today for setup.
Woman with a Parasol is a Claude Monet oil painting from 1875. It has been recreated here in pixel art form, using Mondrian Maker, and captured using the editor's new Speedpaint function.

Found them on the website last night! I think it's like noon-3? My lunch break is noon-1 so I'm giving up eating to come say hi. It has been too long and I have a very important thing for you to sign.
I think I'm headed to the supermarket today, I can grab you a bag if I see it. Will be coming to say hi at your table on Thursday anyway!
We’ve got our own fancy little mini conference coming up!
