Cute! 🎃

Yeah! Just look at what terrifying things you can make.

A screenshot from my ghost dress-up game. It's a ghost with a face and a blue shirt stacked on top of a cyan-faced lumberjack-shirted thing... It's simply indescribable.

I always wanted to make a multiplayer game for a jam and finally did in the last Ludum Dare 58 compo.

White Noise Protocol - a co-op online game without a single line of netcode 🙃

Play it on itch ❄

It's soon Halloween and of course for my monthly game I had to theme it accordingly. Say hello to "Boo-uty Salon"! A spookily themed dress-up game!

Maybe something to try after I'm done with my one game per month challenge in 2025.

Italy isn’t just pasta and pizza - it’s nettles, chicory, elderflowers, and wild mushrooms too 🌿🌼

Just blasted my PC with compressed air. It was so dusty! Feels great to do something you've put off for so long.

Don't think I've had most of these. Lingonberries, of course. Both as jam and in liquid form as a beverage. Mostly find blueberries, blackberries and wild strawberries when I'm out in the forests.

A playtester made this beautiful painting in my game!

A stunning piece of art depicting a mannequin made out of household items like a bucket, a pillow and pool noodles.

What did sailors eat in the Age of Exploration? ⛵
From hardtack to salt pork and beer rations - food at sea was survival, science, and sometimes mutiny ⚓
