I've organized a small event called Six Videogames in a local bar. We talked about modern underground indie game scene and played my games. It was a blast! People, mostly not from the world of gamedev, were so invested, I've got so much feedback and the vibes were overhelmingly good!

Below the cloud, pressure is crushing. Only machines survive in the open.

LAMINA BRUISE is a narrative-driven first-person adventure with puzzle elements.

A surreal sci-fi story experienced through oddly familiar organic interfaces, technologies and environments.

Project TORI will be delayed significantly while I learn Blender extensively so I can create original assets. Would love to hire a 3D artists, but there's just not much funding in games to make that happen. Grateful for what I have been given to make a prototype. Next step is learning a new skill.

"Return of the Obra Dinn" is seven years old this week.

For this not-particularly-special anniversary, here's a re-cammed and narrated timelapse of (nearly) all character creation, object modeling, scene posing, and general 3D work for Obra Dinn from 2015 to 2018:

This is one of my favorite shots from my game The Light Of Our Yearning. I delayed it 1 month to make this happen. Basically, after you complete the game, time still continues. Bones start to decay. Nature reclaims the land. There is no end. If you completed it a while ago, try opening it again...

The main focus is building out a budget for writing about the games and contributors in the zine.

Other people (pizzapranks.com/10-indiepoca...) and I (pizzapranks.com/features/) have done this in the past, but cons have taken the I would use for this and would like it to be a consistent thing.
