After weeks of teasing, I'm very excited to officially show you all:
Gameplay of Calico Wilder!
I've been working with @waveparadigm.com, @littlenorwegians.bsky.social, and some friends to build the first of Calico's adventures, and I'm super thrilled with how it's coming along!

Companies are really out here trying to find *any* way to force GenAI into their products.
Sony has patented the idea of AI-generated podcasts hosted by characters from its games.
The idea would see players getting their own bespoke podcasts on their console, telling them what's new, hosted by the characters of the games they've been playing.

If you ever feel bad about being too on-the-nose with your creative work's inspirations, just remember that Sonic 2 introduced Super Saiyan Sonic and an Eggman-themed Death Star called the Death Egg.

The indie dev struggle between "sharing the cool stuff going on with your project" and "keeping your cards close to your chest" is very real, and very difficult to deal with. XD

There is a very specific category of Youtube videos I love called "Nintendo fan has many complaints about Nintendo that would be solved by not playing Nintendo games".

It's recently hit me that 2026 marks 15 years since I first started making countdown videos (the main kind of videos I made before I pivoted to reviews).
I've really been doing YouTube stuff for over half my life now, my goodness.

I feel her new design has a better theme going on, shape-wise. (Felt a bit sad I have to let go of her peach-coloured hair.)

I'm learning more about this Frutiger Aero umbrella, scratching my chin at what makes more sense for SONA.
