Five trick or treaters already. That’s the same amount as the last 5 years combined.

What kinds of media inspire the art and projects that folks create?
My current main focus (Odd Jobs) is hugely impacted by Small Spaces by Katherine Arden. It’s YA horror-lite, but the way it does atmosphere is phenomenal. It really shaped how I approach lighting and mood.

Figured I’m due to share something Odd Jobs again since I tidied up that thing for Narra’s Gambit. Here’s the first (maybe second?) area I worked on after the apartment. Still nothing to do, just #vibes.
May I present to you an #indiedev reimagining of “the ‘burbs” (no not the movie), in #Godot.

I’ve been sick since last Wednesday, and today, I CAN BREATHE THROUGH MY NOSE.
Actually working on Narra’s Gambit stuff today 🥹
Game design is fun and all…but have you ever spent time coding an item discount function into a preexisting code base? That’s where the real fun is.

Definitely world builder/designer with just a touch of “placeholder asset factory.”
I’m just now starting to slow my roll and use free assets for prototyping instead of feverishly making placeholder art that I know is just a placeholder. I’m not the only one, right?
…right?

The second place that I wanted to rebuild was the nature commune. I wanted the game to mostly feel urban, but I needed a natural counterpart.
While I was putting together a mood board I saw the phrase, “a place that remembers, but isn’t happy to see you.” That guided this.

This is where the rebuild started. From a small MS Paint scene, to a small “brought to you by #blender” scene.
This is “home base” if you will, so I wanted it to feel grounded, lived in, but just a little bit cramped and uncomfortable.
This is the result of day one in the #godot #3dgame rebuild.

I was planning to immediately follow up with some old pictures, but…not a social media person so I got distracted.
I started “Odd Jobs” a few years ago as a 2D project. It was meant to be a quiet #cozygame that was just a little unsettling. Think Welcome to Nightvale meets Stardew Valley.

By no stretch of the imagination am I a social media person, as I think is evident, but I want to share stuff I make as an #indiedev!
I have Narra’s Gambit, the team project that I posted about months ago, but I have solo projects too! I’m gonna try to be better about sharing stuff.

Most of what we call "tech" is about getting the right information into a database and trying to prevent the wrong person from reading or updating it.

Just want to share this. The end really stuck with me.

We decided that #programming a tutorial would be too much time as we near the end of #gamejam. Instead, please enjoy this informational training video for our game, Manual Override.

Not as much done today as I’d hoped, what with being a substitute 5th grade #teacher and all. I got my #gamejam time in though. I think it’s starting to look pretty neat. Three more days! Nothing can go wrong…
