As an aside, I’ll be updating Extreme Couponing soon and I’ve added some very cool shit like Dual Promos (where you combine 2 Promos to get the benefits of both!) and a new Colour class (cause black looks good on everyone)

I just released my latest jam game: EXTREME COUPONING.
Made in just a week, this game is a take on Balatro, mashed up with a classic Dress-Up mechanic, for the NSFW Minijam #18 (My third entry to this series of jams)

Try it out. Let me know what you think!

The github commit notes on projects like this are hilarious.
‘Adds bukkake system’
‘Resolves issue where cumflation fails if too many participants’
Like, what am I doing? lol

Pile of Coats is a short, first-person experience about receiving a visitor in the middle of the night. I made it over February for Strawberry Jam 9.

Check out this cool 'Line of Sight' shader from Midnight Delivery. (The crosshatched section around the NPCs) I always found shaders pretty intimidating, so this is a real win for me.

Did you know that BinaryFormatter can be used to execute exploits? I sure didn’t. Anyway, this method is cleaner all round.

Happy to report that Midnight Delivery is back in development! I was really stuck on the save system but I ripped it out and replaced it with a JSON solution and it’s working lovely now. More soon!

I think modern computer software was a mistake and we should go back to our roots of developing for limited hardware.

The same amount of electricity that could power MS-DOS for a year is now used to ask Copilot how to save a Word document to your local Desktop instead of OneDrive.

My game isn't pixel perfect, and your favourites probably aren't either. Here's why: youtu.be/-hSRLmk3nLo

the average artist, writer, etc. online is not a capitalist. they lack the means to generate capital. they do not control labor. they can’t afford to eat, they can’t pay rent. someone asking for 3 dollars in exchange for a 20 page comic is not in opposition to progress. idk what people want anymore.

I had this idea for an experimental game (maybe a comic) which takes place entirely in a dark room. I hope I have an excuse to try this out sometime soon.
