running
always running
never moving

if we could just pull ahead
maybe things would improve
but we're going nowhere

tired
so tired
but we can't stop
lest we fall

we are stuck
on a treadmill of someone else's design
always running
going nowhere

This is not at all what I was trying to do, but it’s very mesmerizing.

It’s been a while, but I’m starting something again.

Very placeholder art, but I also kinda like the style.

Dear aspiring #gamedev in Gen Z,

Sometimes I see you taking rejection really hard… and I want you to know that it’s not you.

The game industry is seriously struggling, and the result is that it’s harder than ever to break in.

Love,
A millennial #gamedev who is rooting for you against all odds

It’s fun being a #godot fan because when a new version drops it’s like an impromptu holiday. Seeing the community excited and engaged is refreshing, and a much needed levity break from *gestures vaguely at everything*

Sadly, I cannot self-fund the project anymore until I find a new job. Our biggest sponsor has to leave too. So things will slow down until we accumulate more funds; possibly through new services. If you enjoy the project, consider donating to it on Github Sponsors!

Just added a web version of my Fire Escape game from #vimjam5.

It’s not perfect, since the og version was made to use Jolt and have some desktop-isms, but it worked well enough I figured I would publish it anyway.

@heartbeast.bsky.social I’m having difficulty playing the most recent episode of your podcast. I’ve tried in a few different apps and evening trying the direct link to the audio file in your rss

Watching The Wizard of Oz with my boys. When they go to get the witches broom the lion brings a comically large net and hammer, the tin man brings his axe, and the scarecrow straight up brings a revolver.

He truly is the one with brains.

It’s finished and I’m tired. Going to take a break, but I have many ideas on how I might expand this game in the future. Maybe in a commercial version?

Working on the all important pause screen for that fire game. Couldn’t help but be a little extra with it.

I’m making a game about throwing things out windows in order to save them from a house fire. 🏠🔥

I’ve never felt so bad at math until I tried making an active ragdoll. I can make an active character, I can make a ragdoll, but I haven’t quite nailed the combo yet. 🙃
