Hey, I’m new to Bluesky but here’s some things you might remember me from:

Had an extremely dumb and tiny halloween video game idea, but if I am being honest with myself I am gonna spend that time making another foam tombstone if I do anything at all.

All the art content creators ostensibly bemoaning AI by saying “and now one person can create a clone in just one day” are being paid by AI companies to say that. Because it isn’t even close to being true, but if you repeat it enough times…

What in the Widow’s Bay is going on in Excelsior, MN?

The black pit deep beneath Edinburgh where a ghost unclipped my tour lanyard, I shit you not. Usually there are not real ghosts on ghost tours?

I really enjoyed how every fifth person in Edinburgh is soft goth.

Beautiful, sunny (checks notes) Edinburgh?

🌼My new game is here!🥀 "She danced in the wind like a holographic dream before the world died." alienmelon.itch.io/flower A game poem and interactive fiction about The End. You play the very last flower left on Earth, bringing peace to long dead soil. #IndieGame #VideoGame #GamePoem #Game

The new Resident Evil movie is really something!

Kenney hit the infamous "two billionaires with one post" achievement, remains very rare, also shows once again that money does not equal intelligence, capability, or insight: Kenney is obviously right.

Indies: 1) Friends who listened, sometimes the whole local community 2) Family who puts up with your work. They maybe watched your kids while you traveled. 3) You maybe even thanked your kids. 4) Mentors 5) Your pets 6) Your local coffee shops and takeout places who now know you by name.

Took me a long time to realize the blue in ROYGBIV is cyan and the indigo is blue.

Don't let billionaires convince you slop is the future. They're used to managing & directing, not making things themselves. Of course they can't see the difference. They don't understand your love for the craft. Keep making personal, beautiful games. You've got my support 💖

i judge for a few festivals, and i can safely say that the games that always stand out the most are ones with personal creative care taken in every aspect of the game. people say AI should replace this but you can’t automate intentionality or love. if you bank on that then you don’t understand art.

Nicolas Cage and Antonio Banderas will be the leads of ‘TRUE DETECTIVE’ Season 5. Filming begins next year.

Having a toddler appears to have made me immune to the effects of European jet lag, both directions!

"WE ARE ALL ILHAN" is what I say because if you're looking for paperwork my dad filled out on my behalf as a child in the 90s, I can't help you. Shouldn't you have that? I guess you'll have to raid my home.

I feel like more than the current 900 viewers would enjoy this video, but I have been wrong before? youtu.be/Of2M-5F9OXs?...

I am never going to believe anybody who works at a publisher who says they decided to sign a game based on the pitch deck.

I have never met a scout that says this and can actually do it, and for those that CAN, we always find out that their team can't.

Has anybody age 26 or younger ever actually seen 80s-90s bangs in person?

So, Ollie-Oop hilariously got accepted to this dark souls speed run?? Check it out on Friday!! Gonna be a good time. www.twitch.tv/soulsspeedruns

Genuinely the thing I'm trying to train up the most because I always think that with enough exploration, consideration, and experience, the best decision will be clear. But you have to make the clarity.
