My deepest apologies for posting a game play video earlier that BlueSky decided to stretch 🤢🤮 I only have myself to blame.

I’ve got a bunch of new books out this month! Two kids science books - The Future is Nano and Countdown to Climate Chaos - plus advent calendar book Disney: A Magical Christmas Countdown, for which I wrote Frozen, Goofy, and Lilo & Stitch stories.

Your daily reminder that more people are playing and buying PC games than ever before. This is a growing industry. The only reason the industry is struggling is because the people are the top are vacuuming up all the money made to divert it to AI in an unhinged all-in multi-trillion-dollar gamble.

Old #picoCAD model imported into #picoCAD2 - need to remake this one at some point in the near future. #agracing #wip3out #wipout #auricom

What made the jumps possible (fps wise) was changing how the car shadow works. To sell the jump gotta have a shadow. Shadows were baked into the Sprite tile so to make a jump you'd need a 2nd Sprite (for the shadow). BUT rendering the shadow ON the road instead == Free shadow \o/

@chinnyvision.bsky.social highlights exactly what is happening with AI slop appearing on retro systems. The fear is games like our game #SpacePizza that @garypinkett.bsky.social has been working so hard on for the last six months will get lost in the tidal wave of AI shite. youtu.be/XF6j2gdX05U?...

I’d LOVE an Evercade Nexus (I have 3 games in Indie Heroes collections) but I just can’t afford it right now. Reviews look great! Hope it sells buckets. !:)

Working on some more tracks for ZERO💨 Got 5 so far. 7 more to create. Lots to do! Each track gets a tonne of tweaks until it's right. #gameBoy #indieDev
