If you purchased the Refrigeration ❄️ endorsement *first* for your license, the Road Dispatcher had apparently forgotten others were available 🤦. Now you can grab those other endorsements 🏋️💧☢️ and take bigger jobs!

Jane Goodall spoke at my middle school when I was in ~8th grade. She’s one of a handful of people in my life that cemented in me the idea that this planet does not belong to us.

It's important to take a break from behind the wheel every once in a while and get a snack 😌🌯.

My latest game for the Playdate is out now! It's a turn-based tactics game about becoming water fighting champions. It's silly and whimsical, and hopefully a good time to boot.
Super Splash League is now available on Playdate! Available on Playdate Catalog and Itch io!

I'm late to the game (😒) but I recently played #TinyTerrysTurboTrip and 100%'d it (which I rarely do). It was the perfect mix of Banjo Kazooie, GTA, and a dash of Richard Scarry's Busytown that I didn't know I needed. 10/10.

Details about my first* game are coming very soon but here's the first screenshot. It's the Oatcup logo translated into 1-bit for the #playdate.
*I've... technically released one other "game". It was as a Christmas present to my family and it was mostly a one-room non-game thing. 🙃

okay, #introduction for real this time! I'm Tye (he/him) and I've been doing hobby #gamedev for a very (oh no) long time. Oatcup is me doing it 'for real'. I'll probably post about #gamedev but also about #videogames from time to time since I like playing them too 💁. And other nonsense, I'm sure.
