I bought $50 worth of BGMs, I’m so happy. I can’t wait to use them in a game 🥰

And I know that there were more, I haven’t finished window shopping yet. I LOVE ADDING TO MY BGM AND GAME ASSET HOARD

It’s surprisingly easier to find assets through Japanese websites because they actively filter out AI content.

I should get back into studying Japanese.

Teaching is kind of fun.

But I also want to make my game.

I wish these two didn’t share the same 24 hours.

Man, I can’t seem to comprehend the idea of living life slowly. I THINK I should be relaxing a bit more, catch up on more movies and play more games. But also, I have more game ideas than I have years left to live. And if each game takes a year to make…

Sometimes it’s a bit hard not to feel a tinge of discouragement. But I just have to keep my fingers crossed and keep going!

I just watched the clips of Ellie asking Neuro-sama questions about her existence and embodiment and I just wanna gush for a bit how amazing this is and how much it reveals about this little homemade AI vTuber.
I'm no AI engineer, I'm a gamedev, so I might be wrong, but this is what I inferred

Neuro-sama thinking at the sheer insane computer speed of update ticks is probably giving her a really skewed, torturously slow concept of time.

So because I misunderstood what the Google form wrote, I caused Isekat to miss out on a huge chance of being shown to people. I'm so depressed...

And another Bluesky migration happens again thanks to this dumbfuck

Thinking about it, BlueSky is kind of like old school forums where you just had to interact a lot to get yourself out there. I was actually so perplexed that there wasn’t a function to boost a post but… that’s a good thing.

I just need to unlearn feeling too nervous to comment on other’s posts

After the stuff that's happening over at X, I think I'm gonna focus a bit more on BlueSky. I feel that BlueSky is at a bit of a disadvantage compared to X for reaching audiences and non-creators, but maybe it's something that needs to be built in time. If artists are happy here, people will come.

Giving the amazing artists that made Isekat as beautiful as it is their flowers! Here's MinLoafie, a super multi-talented artist who illustrated the world art, trailer backgrounds and some of the characters!

I am on standby to hotfix any bugs. Releasing a game is not relief until the work is done RAAAAAA
Building bug is fixed! Please check if the build number at the top right of the title is v1.0.4!
If not, right clicking your game in Steam > Properties > Installed Files > Verify game files
should trigger the game to update to the latest immediately!
