This is the Steam trailer for Star Spark that I'd been working on!

The game isn't done, but just having the store page is a big milestone for me.

Wishlist it if you like what you see!

Cartoon: If anyone in Chicago knows this school or an anti ICE organization affiliated with them I would be happy to donate this art. I only wish I could have fully Sal Buscema-ed that punch :)

Sometimes I just do weird stuff in VR just to see if I can. This was all done in one continuous shot.

Cool to see MGS4 no longer trapped on the PS3.

Fun story -- a friend from Vancouver mailed me the copy of MGS4 that came with his PS3 (he wasn't into MGS) and then I got another friend to let me borrow their PS3 for a week so I could play it 😂

Check out my upgraded Crabby Color~ Like me, it only plays games that don't exist yet.

Thanks for hosting #TurnBasedThursday!

I'm making #StarSpark, a tactical turn-based fighting game in which players battle their way through a survival tournament using a combination of real time combos and various attack, defense, and support skills.

Long shot request, but does anyone own the May 1995 issue of V-Jump? I want to confirm the release date for the June 1995 issue, which would be toward the very back here in the May issue as a small blurb on the left of the table of contents page. Please share around & thanks to anyone who can help!

Part of switching #StarSpark over to a deck system was to let players select a new card post-combat instead of a stat boost.

I still want the player's stats to increase during a run, so I've opted to award stat boosts upon clearing the round instead.

I think about this every time I see a dev posting about how they made their entire budget back 3 hours after launch or whatever.

Cool, happy for you, now where's your dev fund?
we need a program where highly successful (read: flush) devs can pay a UBI for a gamedev (who doesn’t work for them) for 3 years and see what they come up with

no strings, no recoup, just paying someone’s bills for a spell

it used to be called patronage and it’s how we made like everything ever
I don’t think it’s been great for video games to be on the stock market

Oh god please don't tell me when uploading a demo build that it requires a second store review. Am I screwed? The demo isn't even eligible for Nextfest?!?

I added a KO graphic to make #StarSpark feel more like a fighting game.

It's simple but it gets the job done.

Give a man a fish, and he’ll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, and he’ll eat forever. Steal a fish from one man, give it to another, and tell the second man that he needs to pay you a subscription fee every month if he wants to keep getting fish, then you’ve successfully disrupted the fish market.
