It took most of a week - plus numerous superficial hand injuries - but I finally got this fall’s big home project done: New spare bedroom!

COVER YOUR DECAYING HUSK IN FABRIC!!! But do it with style...

It's time again for MYSTober! We've given you a list of 31 prompts, one for each day in October, and you have free reign to draw, sketch, write, or any creative endeavor that relates to that day's word. Use the hashtag #MYSTober so we can see them!

33 years ago today, the Stranger stepped onto the dock of Myst Island for the first time. We can still hear the water splashing against the pilings.

For the past several weekends, I’ve been picking away at a project to build my kiddo the Halloween costume he wants more than anything. (Cloak not shown here, needs a little trimming)

Okay, here’s the thing. It could taste SO so much worse. But it’s not “good”. Tastes like Bailey’s and Cookie Crisp, mixed with regret.

A brand new Taco Bell opened up DANGEROUSLY close to the office. I may have stopped by for lunch, was told I was one of the first 100 customers, and was given this cookie. Please clap.

There are currently no active conversations for a full ‘MUPPET SHOW’ series revival. Disney, The Muppets Studio and Point Grey Pictures have had difficulties with deciding on a premise for the series that they can all agree on. (Source: Deadline)

Really excited to finally release FPOM! 🥳 It's a Parallax Occlusion Mapping shader I made with the goal of having an alternative for Nanite Displacement that looks good for a fraction of the cost. Works with Landscape, Mesh Terrain, Meshes, Decals etc. fab.com/listings/f56... #gamedev

Telling my kids this was OBDUCTION (2016).

Cyan Worlds@cyan.com

🎂🍰🎈 Today marks the TEN YEAR Anniversary of Obduction! To celebrate, we recorded a retrospective video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrnxqeJe6kI More anniversary & 60% Off Sale info here: https://cyan.com/2026/08/24/cyan-celebrates-10-years-of-obduction/

A: I’m sorry ❤, and B: Holy crap thank you for this video. What a great lens to remember those years. Those were GOOD years that felt like we were doing something different.

Grateful to be home after nine long days of mandatory wildfire evacuation, and yet heartbroken for all the friends & neighbors who were less fortunate. Would not recommend. 0/5 stars.
