Something really unexpected & spooky happened when I was recording a little demo video for some hand-tracked #XR interactions for finger flicking & sling-shot gestures on the #MetaQuest3. Watch til the end...

Something my friend David Snopek is working on, make sure you watch till the end because the first part of the video is looking at functionality we already have.

Live editing in VR by manipulating objects in VR space. It's early days but has so much potential!

I was cleaning/dusting my computer case, and from those droppings on my graphics card, I think a lizard might have been using my graphics card as its toilet! I hope it's been eating the bugs at least.

What's your number one personal game design principle? And even better - does it have a cool name?

The hypocrisy from Trump's FCC Chair is staggering but unsurprising.

It should be clear by now that to MAGA, protecting freedom of speech was always secondary to wielding the power to punish anyone who questions this regime.

I made this protest sign back in April. Now it's September, and late night hosts are being silenced for being critical of the regime. In America, we've now arrived at the point where the government decides what you can laugh at.

I'm on day 22 of COVID-19. I've finally started getting better and recovered a lot the past 3 days. Still have minor coughing and sinus discomfort, a lot of tiredness, and headaches. And now, a lot of difficulty sleeping. Stay safe out there, everyone! 😷💉

I'm on day 15 of COVID-19: I thought I was getting a little better, but last night I had the worst coughing attack I've ever experienced. Chest aches. Sinus headache and nose waterfall. Waiting for call back from doctor. Stay safe everyone! 😷🦠

I'm on day 9 of COVID-19 today. I've lost 5 lbs of body weight so far and have done so much deep abdominal coughing that I think I'm starting to see some 6-pack abs on me. Stay safe out there everyone.

Day 7 of #COVID gave me an even more suitable voice for a sad tired raccoon who’s just barely holding it together.

Here's "Home Is Where The Trash Is", the VR hand-puppet game I made for the Sizzling Shrimp VR Summer Jam 2025:

My wife and I finally caught COVID-19 for the first time after all these years. Fever and sore throat.

WIP 1 - "Home Is Where The Trash Is".

This is a VR hand puppet game I'm making for Sizzling Shrimp VR Summer Jam. Turn on sound to hear me introduce the game through the raccoon!

Here are my stray cat friends from Kakaako Waterfront Park: I call them Fatty, Darkness, & Toupee. Fatty usually just likes to lounge around on the ground. Darkness is so soft to rub. Toupee will stretch out for a good long rubbing and meow at you if you stop too early. #Honolulu #Kakaako

Using OpenBrush to quickly iterate/prototype a raccoon for the Sizzling Shrimp VR Summer Jam. Going to make some mischief and cause some unhappy campers. #gamedev #openbrush

Seriously, why tf does this sugarcane drink list horse hooves in the ingredients!?!?!? No drink should have horse hooves in the ingredients list. I hope that is just a mistranslation. 🤮🐴

Finally home after about 2 amazing weeks in Japan! Somehow, it felt like a lot longer. It was good to take a break from the computer & the 24/7 US news cycle.

We walked soooo much, but ate very healthy meals, and were able to find good vegan options. Bonus: almost all of my houseplants survived!

In Tokyo, there is a park with a name which translates to "Sudo Park". I just had to go there. It's where all the super users hang out. #linux

Life-sized Gundam statue in Tokyo! Huge and so realistic. Look at the size of the humans standing near it for scale! 😯

So happy! 😊 My wife & I visited the Meteor store in Tokyo.

It is the home of the annual My Famicase exhibition, the inspiration for the "A Game By Its Cover" game jams, one of my favorite yearly game jams.
