YEEEEEES PETE FRY WON!!!!! I hope Vancouver has a bright future ahead of it with this progressive super-majority in charge! Everyone I know who lives here is fucking struggling rn....

THE NEW CASTLEVANUA GAME IS SO INSANELY GOOD โ€ผ๏ธโ€ผ๏ธ The MUSIC, the weapon variety, the movement, the art, the difficulty, the secrets!!! Absolutely hitting on all cylinders!!

Finishing up the last episode of Julia (Child) on Crave / HBO. I fucking love all the beautiful bozos in this show!!!! The message is clear, the acting is wonderful, and I adore that the show focuses on relationships between older folks in such an honest & joyful way :)

Just finished The Ghost In The Shell (2026). Fuckin' absolute tour-de-force from Science Saru!! I've been a fan of this studio since their first anime, and I was NOT disappointed with this one!!! Absolutely gorgeous and incredibly philosophically dense (and horny as hell)

I've been working hard on my mecha game for 1.5yrs as the programmer & team lead, alongside 3 composers and 25 excellent artists (the emblem project is so ridiculously ambitious)!! It's probably going to be another 1.5yrs before release, but I am SO proud of all the work everyone has done thus far!

Please be vocal about not using AI. We have to normalize it. No "I'm not going to say that because it should be assumed. I'm not going to give them this". We don't have time for that shit ideological shit right now. NOW is the time to capitalize on waning favorability. Ppl want human made

JEEEEEEEEESUS CHRIST, THE LATEST GHOST IN THE SHELL EPISODE (6) IS SOOOOO CRAZY GOOD!!!!!! The music in this show is always so ๐Ÿ‘Œ

I'M GONNA BE SHOWING OFF SCORCHED EARTH AT THIS!!! PLEASE GO AND SHOW THESE OTHER INDIES SOME LOVE TOO <3 <3 <3!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just saw Kokuho! Oh my god, what a beautiful feast of a movie! So much to think about. I really connected with it. If you enjoy this movie, I recommend checking out the anime Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu! Touches on some similar themes

ATTENTION, ARTISTS! I'm looking to commission a ton of artists to each make 1-3 emblems (and maybe voice act) to represent the many rival mechs that will appear in my game! If you're interested, please message me which callsigns catch your fancy! If a name isn't crossed off yet, it's available!

AAAAAAND CLOSED! ALL CALLSIGNS ARE NOW ACCOUNTED FOR! To everyone who reached out, my apologies if I couldn't get to you! This has been a wonderful opportunity to start chatting with so many great artist :)!

JJK Season 3 Episode 4 is, to me, the best episode of anime I've ever watched. It's absolutely perfect 11/10, no notes.

Yo @wooliewoolz.bsky.social since you hinted at maybe having another mechweek, I wanted to let you know that DuckStation is my PS1 emulator of choice (and the Front Mission 3 remake is bad, so I recommend emulating the original instead). PCSX2 is also excellent for PS2 games!

The tonal dissonance between working extremely hard on making games for entertainment and watching the tightening grip of totalitarianism around me is doing incredible (bad) things for my mental health

AI is killing the games industry. Don't use it, don't accept it, push back against it wherever you can, because this tech is cannibalizing everything you care about, even if you don't know it, it's poisoning something right now that you'll feel the impact of further down the line.

I cannot stress this enough - Andor S2 has just produced my favourite episode of live action TV ever.

Andor is a punch in the face of Trump and the media's coverage of him

Alright. It's time. I'm closing one book, and opening another! Recently, I started prototyping a new game - an old-school Armored Corelike, inspired specifically by 3rd Gen (best gen ๐Ÿ˜ค)!! I have such a deep love for this series, and I don't want the charm of those old games to be lost to time

GodDAMN The Banner Saga's OST is SO FUCKING GOOD! Everyone once 'n a while I'll put it on and get lost in it. Fucking incredible trilogy.

Holy shit the writing in 100 Line is SO GOOD!!!! Every time I play it, I pause at least once or twice to enjoy a *lovely* bit of dialogue. The English localization team didn't great job!!!!

Ugh. Why's everything gotta cost so much money? I just want me and my team to live comfortable and make games.... but it's so hard to even get by ๐Ÿ˜ญโ€ผ๏ธ I'll try to be more active with dev-posting about my next game. Maybe get a humble youtube channel going. Gah, I need money so bad ๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ™
