outfit sketch

everyone gets a wardrobe change to keep things fresh basically every major city, I need to make them better

(not a confirmed outfit spoiler or anything, just doodling. giving Mae jewelry that are actually mana crystals emitting light to help her see is nice)

We're happy to announce that the Comix Cleric Kickstarter will be launching Dec. 8th!!

If successful, this campaign will help keep us operating while we finish development of a feature-ready version. We're almost there, but a little help goes a long way!

Heart of Mana's seventh book has been formatted and ordered! They'll get here in a couple weeks and they'll be available shortly after!

Won't say no to an excuse to jump on an OCT reminiscence train

Guess I'm washed now but was certainly a fun time, led to meeting lots of awesome artists! Also a great way to practice comic storytelling

Those days are probably over for me with my other comics, but are still a backbone of sorts

A couple months late after the clear, but here's some celebratory art for clearing the Aloalo Island Criterion Savage Dungeon in #FFXIV, alongside @cafcoleo.bsky.social, @aerialblast.bsky.social, and @fshybeans.bsky.social !!!

sure we're all fishers but that doesn't mean we can't kick ass sometimes

Oh yeah now that they've shown up in the comic I can share some reference work for Mae's family

Thumbnailed 35 pages of comic work today, very excited

Over the next several chapters we get to understand some fundamental truths about the world and also get to show why I think Dust is the best villain I've ever written as she relates to the main trio of Emelia, Ray, and Mae

would have been fun vising the ffxiv fanfest in anaheim, maybe next time! would have been a fun time to meet friends and visit the area but didn't work out this time (also it wouldnt have been worth it without my bestie Mr. Gear @xanagear.com )

Enough people said they wanted to see the final slide deck, so I took the time to put it on my non-teacher github so I could share it. I didn't end up getting in trouble. I ended up being encouraged by a colleague to share it with my dept chair, and he liked it

Made a short precision/puzzle(ish) platformer for this year's #GMTK2025 Game Jam

A good test run for some upcoming stuff!

My second game jam submission and I'm really proud of this one, I hope you enjoy it.

rip to the characters that have been designed for years but probably won't be seen by other people for more years

These actions are textbook groundwork to expand this payment denial to LGBT/queer content in the future.

There are lots of reasons to take steps against this but that's a pretty solid one to start with.

It's absurd and dystopian that payment processors get to decide what we can and can't see on the internet.

That companies like Visa and Mastercard can use their enormous size to bully companies into taking stuff offline - based on the reactionary politics of a small group.

More Mae stuff, can't wait to get to her backstory in the comic (very soon, this year)

Will be taking a month off on Heart of Mana after the current arc (for the first time in 3.5 years!) to build back buffer and recharge a bit.

I'll be spending a bit of time on Artfight this year as well, getting to draw without thinking about comic panels etc is always nice. Should be a nice break

Was still using deviantart's stash features to save online backups of comic stuff. A few months back they integrated stash into eclipse, bloating screen space + removing the ability to organize folders.

Tried making a new one today and now I need to pay to create a subfolder, this site is so cooked

A lot of assets and all animations are non-final but what do you think Bluesky? A sneak peek at my first game, a 3D rogue-like platformer with procedurally generated levels! Inspired by my childhood (Mario 64) and my adulthood (Spelunky).

I am so happy that Blue Prince isn't relying on ARG/community hunting for its later puzzles - those things are very cool, but having something I can personally go one on one with, and know that I have everything I need to succeed in front of me, has been incredibly satisfying. Top 10 game easy

Next chapter of Heart of Mana is going to be the longest one yet...

Buckle up, things are going nonstop for a few weeks! (My poor schedule I have so much to catch up on)
