My sword is a tool of justice.

16 bit pixel art half-body of a fair skinned man with feathered blonde hair. His body is robotic with black armor plates all across his arms and chest, and his lower jaw resembles a skeleton's. He wears a bandana over his eye like an eyepatch. The character depicted is Raiden, as seen in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.

With the holidays upon us, don't give to Salvation Army. Not even change. It's a scumbag "charity" run by anti-gay zealots.

Habitat for Humanity is great. Your local Food Bank is great.

So many "charities" are for-profit scams. Use Charity Navigator to vet them. www.charitynavigator.org

Fun fact about the Salvation Army: they use a form of substance use treatment called work therapy. Oh, and by treatment, I mean they have people who have been convicted of drug charges work for their stores & warehouses in exchange for room, board, around a $1 a week, and minimal actual therapy.

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

Experimenting with custom sprite lighting. I've got rim lighting and I can specify shadow colour palettes. Handy for a game with lots of spotlight avoiding!

Hey you wanna see something really weird you can do in my indie game?

The infinite goo tower spell combination is one of my favourite things you can do in rhell, its definitly the most complex way to reach high up places. but the most fun~

Since its October, I will point out again that we made a really cool arcade platformer were you have to survive waves of scary critters on a spooky mansion. Go check it out if you haven't!

Can't have a proper dungeon without some traps!
This time it's a water trap, but don't worry, there are plenty more creative ways to die out there 😅

What's your favorite trap in games or movies?
Mine's still the giant Indiana Jones boulder.

We already absolutely crushed the goal (thank you once again!), but let's see just how many more pledges we can get! Maybe get another plushie for your pet, too?

Here's a bit of Amber's ice form abilities-one which focuses on ease of use with a slower playstyle. She can fire homing icicles, throw a chunk of ice which shatters into homing shards, or send lines of ice along the floor to damage foes.

The notion of treating an entire ship as a sword is absurd in any context, yet when wielded by UMA, this sword becomes physically feasible.

#Mechatober Day 10 - Sword

A mech clad in a scarf wields a massive sword formed from a spaceship, its blade black with effects resembling a black hole.

Building more of the world, I'm finding the room maps give away a little too much. Trying a compass instead - it switches to a stage map on the pause screen, showing visited rooms as squares and the connections between them.
