I'm James. I enjoy OSR DnD & Pico 8.

No AI here, just crusty pixelated art.

I hope you have a nice day.

Bear in mind, Blender is free.

Just saying.

Pico 8 has a one-time price tag of $15.

It's all that stands between you and making Mario with a Gun and posting it on Itch.

Did you know?

The Pico 8 Education Edition is completely free? It's the full software, you just can't export.

If you wanted to, you could make flappy bird TODAY.

To create is to enrich the world with something truly yours.

Try it, you'll thank me later...

Found this in my downloads folder and I don't know who did it, sorry. I failed to properly catalog it. But it's a nice distillation of how I'm feeling right now. Being creative is how I breathe.

Is S C A R A B a kusoge?

I'd love to hear your opinion.

S C A R A B is now available as a playable prototype!

Check it out, but don't be scared of the controls...

Hey all.

Scarab is now up on Itch for playtesting.

Give it a go! I hope I can make it better with your input.

Peace.

Stay tuned.

Scarab is going well.

I like it's crusty, borderline rage game vibe.

Will continue development.

My new idea:

S C A R A B

A mouse maze game where scroll wheel moves you & left click changes axis!

Experimental, but maybe engaging?

I enjoy the fact that, even 20 years since that fateful Valentines day that YouTube was founded, all this time later...

...People still comment, "First" on videos.

It's emotionally grounding.
As if nothing has really changed, after all.

Spectre Duck Update:

I've tied highlighting speed to your movement speed, so the faster you move, the faster you can get DEM ORANGES.

I feel like Spectre Duck is nearly finished at this point. Thanks for following me on this journey!

Spectre Duck Update:

I added a highlighting mechanic where skirting close to bricks without touching them tints them, leaving behind an orange when you bust them for bonus pickup points!

Risk Vs Reward, baby!

Hey guys, updated Brick Dodge.

I renamed it to Spectre Duck, because it sounds cooler.
Also redid the page art. Nothing special.

If you haven't tried it, it's pretty cool! It's an 80's style arcade game about going fast.

More soon.

I'm glad I got back into game dev.

It's like a special combo-hobby that let's you tap into the human experience.

Big fan of it!

Also, as always, no AI here. Just human-made games.
