I've spent the past few months working on an abandoned mall! This will be used in my livestreams, I think it's a massive improvement from what I used before. What do you think? 🤔

So I gave up on a digital planner and am now looking for a refillable notebook that opens/closes binder-style, and I want to shake someone like a soda can.

No, I don't want to be locked into buying your proprietary paper brand. No, I don't want a binder twice the size of the paper it holds.

QUESTION: In Roguelites like Balatro or Nubby's Number Factory, what mechanics feel 'exhausting', if any?

I personally think the 'Quota' systems in a lot of these games can feel a little limiting and tiring, but I'm curious what other people think 🤔

(I'm currently designing a Roguelite game about making Rube Goldberg machines, but I don't want it to feel like "just another game trying to be Balatro", so I'm curious what other people think could be improved on in games like that.)

My Girlfriend gave me a Kiwi Plush that sits on my shelf, so as part of this project I re-made it. Behold, my son:

It's about the money imo.

YouTube are financially incentivized to push creators to make videos that any corporation would feel comfortable advertising in front of, but there is no financial incentive to limit what advertisers can publish (unless it gets a lot of press.)

Also to add because it's for sure warranted with this one, most models from this are assets I've gathered over the years that I have made slight modifications to and retextured.

I've been trying to texture paint a character's head for hours and it's really gotten to me.

I might be scaling some things back unless I can figure something out. If anyone has any good resources on learning to texture paint from scratch, that would be fantastic.

I've been trying to learn a lot of new things for the new model and setup I've been making, and the result is me being the most demotivated I've been in *months*.

I'm really starting to consider if I should move away from streaming as a hobby, I'm exhausted.

Cogwork Dancers is my personal favorite Metroidvania boss fight ever. It's so well designed, they cooked

I suspect it's probably a holdover from when Silksong was Hollow Knight DLC, hopefully it gets touched up in the same way HKs rough edges were sanded off over time

You're real for not liking the collection quests though, they are the clunkiest parts of the game imo

Feels a little strange for a game where so many bespoke areas and encounters are made for some main content to be repetitive 'kill x enemies and collect the thing' tasks.

Did you see the unused worm on a string enemy

That's unfortunate, what part of the game was the breaking point for you? Not trying to be judge-y about bouncing off the game, genuinely curious

As an experiment, how would you re-write these rules to clarify non-con content is not allowed while being more specific? I can't think of anything that wouldn't just be more confusing.

ProtoTea 💾⚠️ @prototea.bsky.social · Sep 21

I'd argue the TOS is very specific in that it disallows non-con in real *and* fictional scenarios, where content depicting dangerous scenarios is only ban-worthy if it presents a 'realistic' danger.

Attention on social media is a total crapshoot due to how algorithm and psuedo-luck-driven everything is, the important thing is to enjoy what you make while you make it.

You make really cool things, seeing wips from artists is neat imo!

I've been working on making a Vtuber model that feels a lot more 'me', but *holy* it is been a struggle

Very early WIP
