I appreciate that people want a new Mass Effect, but the future where fans advocate for the work itself and not the people who make it is the one the vultures at EA want. If you'll take it however you get it, they can keep treating people who make what you love as expendable.

I've been doing a bit of consulting on this project over the past year, and the team finally released a Demo for Steam Next Fest. People seem to be digging it! It's a bit like a throwback to classic Call of Duty zombie mode, with a supernatural twist: store.steampowered.com/app/5233850/...

After almost a year of digital nomad travel, I'm back in Wisconsin for the next 3 months. After that I'm getting back on a plane - the opportunity to keep doing this just feels too good to pass up. Also I've got access to my PS5 for a bit. What should I play?

So happy with how this came out. Been in my head for about a decade. Five minutes, free, in-browser, requires audio you can hear. It's a bit of what you expect, and so much of what you absolutely do not. skiesoffight.com Don't spoil it, just play! #indiedev #gamedev #retrogaming

I’ve been slowly working on this interactive ceramics projects for a few months now and I finally have a working prototype. Park the car in the driveway and the light in the house turns on! There’s more than needs to be done, but I’m excited that it works!

We were watching the Wolverine Sentinel footage, and... We used to call these "high chair boss battles" because the boss looks like a baby in a high chair and you're on their tray. Now you have to see it, too 😅

Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther away—and on the other side of the Sun—mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).

It's obviously bait to call 2026 a weak year for games but it's been such a good year. VHOLUME, Big Walk, Incident at Galley House, 868-BACK, Cairn?? Slay the Spire 2???? Penguin Colony and 500 Finger Fillet before the year's out??????? What planet do you need to be on to consider it weak lol.

Ok I said I was done, but I got so many more ideas. Here's eclipse final v2.0

A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to go see a real solar eclipse in Spain. It was incredible. I had already added an eclipse to Race The Sun: Challenge Edition, but it felt wholly insufficient after seeing the real thing. So here's the new version.
