I was thinking the same thing!

I've begun my traditional replay of Monster Rancher Battle Card II for the PS1 that I feel compelled to do every few years. It's a deeply flawed game (I always forget how clumsy the cards' translations are) but still a comfort game for me. Anyone else have an obscure game they like to return to?

And you can sometimes spend it as an alternative cost for more powerful effects!

Yeah, if we can't be bothered to make our own janky little jam games then what are we even doing here? Like, on Earth?

I dusted off something else I've written that no one's ever read and put it up on my blog. It's about a guy called Deacon and a ghost called Them and maybe they go on adventures or something. Wanna read some stuff I wrote?

Deacon and Them: A Fungus in Our Midst (Chapter 1)

Did a fungal infection make this man a communist?!

I’m genuinely kinda cooked right now.

Just got back from a con that was a massive money pit resulting in a huge loss. AND I’ve got a car issue that’s needs fixing immediately. Annoyingly, I need my car for work 🙃

Let me draw you really cool things for you. DM if interested

If you're including paper towels in that count, I'm good for like 100 by myself.

Wanna read some stuff I wrote? Awesome, then you can check out my new blog wanna-read-some-stuff-i-wrote.ghost.io

I'll probably get a custom domain that's a little snappier at some point but I'll never, ever improve the site stylistically. That's a promise!

Wanna Read Some Stuff I Wrote?

I write things. Stories and poems and whatnot. Would you like to read it?

I'm currently in a very rough spot. Initially I was just a few hundred dollars short on rent and when trying to negotiate some leeway with my landlord, they were very not chill about the situation and escalated things to a point where I now have to find a whole new place to live.

The truth is if you aren't able to spend millions on advertising, you're going to be operating in the shadows of everyone that can. But there's a lot of space down here! Find your niche!

flyover games @flyovergames.bsky.social · Aug 10

This reminds me of when indies will deliberate over when the right time to release their game is. I've heard people with zero budget voice concerns about dropping at the same time as a triple A title but they aren't your competition.

Eternal Skies @eternalskiestcg.bsky.social · Aug 10

I think that as an indie game dev without a large publisher, your target audience is not gamers in general, it is sickos.

It's hardcore sickos that will be diving the depths of your genre and finding your game, and it is sickos who will be spreading it.

Please the passionate, not the masses.

Anyone have a podcast that I can guest on? I can talk about topics that aren't Monster Train 2.
