A great time on Thursday, headling @cpxmcr.bsky.social's event 'PLATFORM'.

It was a privilege to show off ROOST and catch-up with friends new and old.

Big thanks to @thatsnogreg.bsky.social and the rest of the great folks at CULTPLEX for continuing to host such a fantastic event in Manchester.

"Good evening. I'm Declan Harker, thank you for joining me. Tonight's episode, we'll be returning to an old case..."

It's been a while.

I realised that it's been a year since I first started chucking around ideas & concepts for ROOST.

I haven't been able to give the project the time it deserves the last 6 months or so.

Hoping to carve out some time soon.

Still thinking about the underwater sequence from the new Mission Impossible. An incredible bit of movie magic.

“I've given up all chance at inner peace. I've made my mind a sunless space. I share my dreams with ghosts.”

Finished with this Stellan Skarsgård // Andor study.

About 6 hours of struggling and persevering.

Art is hard.

Officially over 6,000 Wishlists for ROOST. Thanks again for helping spread the word.

Making a game in my spare time is effort and progress is slow but we'll get there in the end.

Thank you 👻

We're less than 60 Wishlists away from hitting the 6,000 Wishlists for ROOST.

I'd love to leave 2024 with that hit.

There's no charity to be found on this dreary Monday morning.

I get asked a lot about the name ROOST for my game.

All I'll say is, there's a little song by @bigblackdelta.bsky.social from 2011 that may have been the main inspiration for it...

art vs artist

would people be interested in developer logs of the creation of ROOST?

Im flirting with the idea of doing a small vidoc type thing.

thoughts?
