Hi everyone! I'm Lephys!

😋 I make way too many puns (you don't have to laugh at them... they're terrible, but they make me happy)
🎮 I play way too many games (and therefore finish almost none!)
🤖 I'm either hella neurodivergent, or an android... 🤔

I will say, once you get over the desire to make your dream project and end up at the point of "I think THIS new project will explore something interesting" OR "I want to explore developing a new skill set", you will do your best work because then you are focused on the craft rather than the product

They did a Vampire Survivors update, so sure why not Revenge of the Savage Planet too? Two Point Museum has expanded again in a free update.

US House of Reps has passed a bill to criminalize trans healthcare for people under 18. This bill can be still stopped in the Senate, call/write your senators & ask them to oppose.

My mom got taken by ambulance to the hospital this afternoon. I've been sitting here in the waiting area trying to find any words to say, but I'm completely numb at this point. I honestly don't know if I'll be back on here anytime soon.

Thank you guys for everything. I love you all so much 🫶🏼

I’ve been thinking about this today after spending almost 2 hours trying to draw a single pose sketch of a character… being able to tolerate the frustration and push through when it becomes hard (and it almost always does) is the main trait that you can develop to improve your art

Y'all... this game is looking to end up a REALLY EFFING COOL roamy RPG/souls-like. ^_^
From vast swathes of land to intricate, snow-laden pathways, Tandar has come a LONG way. Check out where we started vs. where it's going in Kristala's upcoming #openworld level.

Just a quick reminder for anyone who lives near a Sam's Club that they regularly have gift card packs for a discount (Nintendo eShop set of five $20 cards is $90... like, just all the time as far as I can tell). I *think* $100 of PS store cards is also $90, but those could fluctuate? 🤷‍♂️

This game's pretty cool! You can tell they kinda had a bigger scope and had to scale back a little, but I'd love to see what they do with another game. ^_^

I wish the diagnosis stuff was a little more engaging.

The claim going around that Yahoo News reported that the Brown shooter yelled Allahu Akbar is not true. Yahoo News syndicated an article from an astroturf outlet called The Center Square that is funded by right wing donors like the Kochs and Donors Trust. /
