I'm incredibly proud and excited to share that the prototype for "Self Simulated: Beyond Vision" — a spinoff prequel to Self Simulated — will be funded by Film- und Medienstiftung NRW!

This project is unique because it's being developed with blind audiences first in mind!

Someone "reported" my listings of GbBBS95 and Where Da Jam At on Etsy. They won't tell me why they removed them and won't let me appeal. I am shipping out the orders that are already made. I guess I need to find another place to sell them at.

I got a solid 9/10 review about Self Simulated from @nintendonwr.bsky.social and I couldn't be happier 💖

We plan to release the shortlist next week.

For those of you who don't like that I charge a few bucks for my tools (and feel you need to say something), I'm deeply sorry, they're still charging for food, internet and rooming where I live. I promise as soon as that changes to make all my tools free!

The second game I've worked on that made the cover. Thanks to @attackemartin.bsky.social for letting me be a part of this. selfsimulated.com

GbBBS95 has been played over 2000 times. Thanks to all who took the time to try it. I love to hear the comments that people felt like it took them back to the 90s. In my mind that is a big success for my first game. beatscribe.itch.io/gbbbs95

Inspector Waffles Early Days was released on consoles last week, and it's probably the right time to say it:

It's my favorite game that I've made. ☺️

I know the Game Boy aesthetics isn't for everyone, but I promise you, it's a enjoyable detective game with some fun puzzles.
