Metapod + Gust of Wind These are my two entries to @tcgnewdeckplus.bsky.social, a Pokemon TCG Gameboy Color mod! I've always loved this game (and soundtrack 😩👌) and have played many different versions of it. So cool to fire up the pixel art and make these buggies! #pokemon #pixelart #pokemontcg

We're putting together a new collaborative gallery with the @tcgnewdeckplus.bsky.social team and are excited to show it to you when it's complete! The new gallery will showcase the original, redrawn and new cards created for the project in a large format spread so you can explore the project art!

That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?

We're streaming all of the Inventory Jam submissions tonight at 7pm PT! Hop in for some wildly cool stuff (I know because I saw it at the in-person showcase last week 😈) and say hi to devs in the chat! twitch.tv/PIGSquad

PIGSquad's @gamewill.bsky.social is giving a talk at Creative Mornings on Friday at 8:30am. Join us at the Tomorrow Theater: creativemornings.com/talks/will-l...

Even more 1490 DOOM, @gamewill.bsky.social showed me you could 3d print vintage keshi erasers so I had a friend print one as a cursed helmet that is turning this greedy guy green. #miniatures #wargaming #kitbash

Do you want to help the TCGND+ Project and all TCG on Gameboy projects to come ? We need to make a tool that can traduce hUGE assembly files into files that can be read for the game ! Dev community ! We need your help !!!

dry bowser creeps me out because i remember seeing bowser falling into lava and his skin melting off :(

I'm really bad about this but I am ALSO the absolute worst about it.

if you extrapolate just based on capex it looks like this

This country was one person's vote away this morning from putting any birthright citizen in danger of being deported tomorrow. We are so much closer to the abyss than we think. Man oh man.

constitutional birthright citizenship survives by 1 vote. and to think people were worried about this beautiful institution.

Do. Not. Use. Fucking. Sticker. Mule.

dude people who complain about masking for 1 hour i cannot 😂

See you tonight! The Luck Jam kicks off at 8pm PT, and we're hanging out at the NW Lucky Lab starting at 6pm for brainstorming, team forming, and the theme reveal! Make a game with us in a week here: 🍀 itch.io/jam/ssjluck Tonight's kickoff details here: 🍀 pigsquad.com/events-list/...

Finally starting to reach back to folks to say THANK YOU for everything that everyone did for PIGCON last weekend. I'm still tired and trying to find my footing in a regular daily/weekly schedule after going really hard on the event, so thanks for your patience!! Mission complete, though <3

my latest @consumerreports.org investigation is based on months of reporting and 120+ lab tests of popular snacks over a third of the products had more additives / contaminants in 1 serving than what health agencies have identified as safe to consume daily 🧵 www.consumerreports.org/health/food-...

At PIGCON last weekend a woman approached my table wanting to know all about what I make. I showed her each game and she said all kinds of sweet things, and before she walked away she very seriously said, "I'm sure your games have saved a few lives". I don't want to forget this, so I'm sharing it ❤️‍🩹

Some of the docs that are still on my desktop as a result of organizing PIGCON:

Okay okay just reposted a big ol' batch!! We are very tired from the weekend so very briefly: THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO CAME OUT AND SUPPORTED, YOU ALL ARE MAKING THIS A WONDERFUL, SAFE, & ENCOURAGING COMMUNITY FOR SO MANY PEOPLE 💖 more soon :)

Still reeling from showing my game at PIGCON, what an incredible weekend! The atmosphere, the games, and the people were amazing- the artist alley and talks were top notch. So much work went into this and the organizers deserve all the props for a successful, fun and safe event!

Removing the "➡️ PIGCON" from my display name

I’m getting too emotional in the laundromat about PIGCON this past weekend, about all the people who showed up to celebrate art, creativity, fun, collaboration, and weirdness.

Had a great time at @pigsquad.com's inaugural PIGCON over the weekend! Ran some Confusing Lands demos, played a bunch of cool games and did my first PICO-8 workshop. Looking forward to the next one!

Witnessed a game called BLOODSPORT GAMBLING where you bet on who lives and dies among wretched nasty fighters with terrible secrets at PIGCon

had a great weekend at pigcon!
