Small-time animator, hobbyist streamer. Lapsed cartoonist. Enjoys indie games (especially puzzles) and does demo roundups and a few rants. Designed a minigame in 2006 that isn't playable anymore, so I'm kind of a big deal. This is not my beautiful house.
Pinned
Figured I'd make a pinned post that covers both the fact that I am an artist and that I'm very interested in indies and puzzle games.

I also have a Steam curator page (which I should update more), in case anybody has overlapping interests

This is bullshit.

"absolutely no genAI in games" is the middle ground.

"how many years in jail should Sam Altman get for knowingly stealing all data ever" is the somewhat more extreme stance I personally adopt.
"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

There are 1,700 ballots that need signature confirmation. That is enough to change the election.

I'm losing my mind over how many reviewers are like "GDT's Frankenstein makes you wonder who the real monster is." THAT'S THE STORY! That's the story Shelley wrote!

Word. Aldi's has a deal to feed 10 for $40. The Target deal is 4 for $20. Not only is Aldi's better financially, it's not run by simpering ring-kissers.

it's honestly sort of funny to read the post-stream summary emails from Streamelements that give you some straight-up incorrect analytics before showing you the actual purpose of the email: a long list of commission-based marketing campaigns

With SNAP/EBT cuts looming I highly recommend downloading this app! Basically restaurants and other food businesses will have available bags of random food they don’t wanna waste for ppl to buy for hella cheap! This has saved me sooooo many times when I only have $5 and need some food.

I recently rewatched the documentary "Indie Game: The Movie" for an upcoming Triple Click bonus episode (don't miss it!) and it portrays Fez as a game in never-ending development hell, with fans wondering if it'd ever come out, because it had been in production for... 3 years. How quaint!

If you're surprised about the extremely common practice of encouraging kids to refer to certain relatives (or even family friends) as "Aunt/Uncle X", it's probably because nobody likes you enough to want you around their kids

We're planning a Legacy Games Celebration!

While we work on new projects, we want to celebrate the games that have got us this far. From Nov 3rd to Dec 14th, we'll be spotlighting one game per week, talking a bit about the making of them, and making creator keys available!
