Bluesky, meet Nod. He's 4 months old and loves to run circles around my apartment.

Now we are working on a first person retro horror game set on a fishing boat!

It's been awhile since I've had any #gamedev to show, life has been busy. But I wanted to share a peak of what we are working on. This video shows off some of our initial models, textures, and post-processing effects. Let me know what you think!

Thanks so much to #AppleTV+ and #Collider for hosting a really fun screening of episodes 4 and 5 of #Murderbot! It was so cool to see the show on the big screen, and being able to laugh along at the jokes with an audience was great! Really looking forward to the rest of the season!

Our #indiegame Upstream features #pixelart inspired by environments of the Pacific Northwest!

Hello #GDC2025!

My name is Noatak! My best friend and I started a game studio @gllama.games and we're launching our first game in just 6 days! We're here at #gdc learning everything we can and meeting as many cool people as we can! Please say hello if you see us around!

We don't have goodies to hand out at #GDC2025, and we don't have services to offer so a business card didn't really make sense. I call these Wishlist Cards.

Anyway we have 500 of these. That means we are gonna get 500 wishlists this week right?

I know who you are. If you are looking for ransom I can tell you I don’t have money, but I do have a very game dev focused set of skills. If you let my turtle go now that’ll be the end of it. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you and I will ask you very nicely for a turtle. :)

Hi BlueSky!
Would you play this game? 🐟🕹️🧩

I was starting to feel a little bit like a caveman with my longer hair and beard. Glad I got cleaned up with #GDC coming up soon!

Upstream passed 1000 wishlists and over 500 unique players of the demo this morning and I am so proud!

I know people say 7000 wishlists is the goal, but we have had such a short marketing push that, my goal was always 1000. And we got there before the end of #SteamNextFest

Working on a new "salmon sense" effect for Upstream, our 2-button #physicsplatformer about the #salmon life cycle. Very happy with the results so far!

Over the holidays I got to take a small break from #gamedev and visit #hawaii for the first time. As someone who has spent his whole life in the #pnw, I never quite got the appeal of tropical vacations. Safe to say, I definitely get it now. #photography

Our cats are very important membes of the #gamedev team.

Took some time off #gamedev this weekend to fly all the way across the country for a 24 hour visit to #NYC, to see #Journey LIVE, conducted by the one and only @awintory.bsky.social! Truly a once in a lifetime experience, and one of my favorite concert experiences ever.

I just learned that there is GIF support here now! Let's see how it looks with this sneak peak at the first official Upstream trailer! Coming soon to a Steam Store near you!

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate!

Among many other things, I am thankful that yesterday we finished editing our first official trailer for Upstream and submitted our Steam Page for review!

It feels more real than ever now!

Here's a clip from that trailer!
