Hi everyone. I'm still getting set up here, but in the future you can look forward to me talking about game development, the game industry, dragons, other reptiles, and probably the occasional other topic.
I've got a lot of projects in motion, and I'm excited to share them when the time is right!

Yeah, I wasn't going to host anything on github, but now... I'm still absolutely not going to host anything there. I'll just use a self hosted option and probably codeberg.org as well.
Codeberg.org
Codeberg is a non-profit, community-led organization that aims to help free and open source projects prosper by giving them a safe and friendly home.

My print on demand order arrived, so now I can get back to playtesting my card game! So many projects happening at once, but this is the only way I know how to work!

Work continues (slowly) on my #Thief FM. I've been adding windows to the manor, and a few other decorations. There are still a few things left to do with the geometry. Pretty soon I'm going to start room brushing.

Goodbye for now Buttercup. You were such an amazing leopard gecko, and God taught me so many things through you. You were always so curious and inquisitive and friendly. You were such a silly girl. I loved you so, so, so much. I know we'll meet again in heaven and enjoy our Creator for all eternity.

When I started making this #ThiefFM last year, I hoped to finish it by the 25th anniversary of Thief 2 this month. That definitely didn't happen! Still, it's come a long way. Enjoy a before/after of the creation of the main staircase. It's not complete, but the basic design is done. #thief #gamedev

Today, the UK government announced a proposal to change copyright law - for the benefit of AI companies - that would cause huge, irreversible harm to creators.
More info below, but most importantly here's what you can do (wherever you live):

I am so, so blessed to be able to care for a leopard gecko. Such a beautiful and wonderful creature!

Pax unplugged was... Fine.
+ Met more publishers who may be interested in publishing my projects
+ 2 Rooms and a Boom is fun
- Expensive!
- Almost no positive reptile representation. Even in the few games I saw where you play as reptiles, the goal was often to fight other players or reptiles. :/

Working on my #shmup project today. I decided to try a bullet library that seemed full featured, but at almost every step, interfacing w/ it in the way it wants has been fiddly. Nearing the point where it would have been faster to write this myself, but that would add additional work now... #gamedev

Happy Thanksgiving for everyone celebrating, and happy day for everyone else too! Why should thankfulness be limited to one day per year?
I'm very thankful for the many blessings in my life, such as this precious leopard gecko.
