Introductions seem nice to do now that so many of us are trying to leave the ol' billionaire hellsite!

Flying through a bit of the first level of Keeper, directly in UE Editor. It's really important that editor view match the game as much as possible for faster iteration.

The inks of dawn
Our expedition embodied the desire to find a new hue for our souls. After a year of travel, on the first day of the year, we arrived at the borders of our world. There, we discovered the color of the unknown.
Happy new year 2026 everyone! 🎆

Why has it only occurred to me NOW that I could have a big document with all my personal project ideas in it? Something searchable w/ categories even!
My biggest issue with doing creative projects outside work is not having an idea when I have the time to do something. Hope this fixes it.

It's curious to me that shops still lump sci-fi and fantasy together for browsing purposes. The audiences are not now and have never been identical nor the themes similar. Why in 2025 when categorization is easier than ever am I still browsing through copies of LOTR to find The Fortress or whatever?

Played Wirm this afternoon with my brother and we had such a lovely time! If you're looking for something engaging and fresh to play with a friend, Wirm is super charming and fun.
🪱Wirm is just 2 reviews away from the threshold where Steam will start calling it "Very Positive", so please leave a review if you haven't already!!
(We'll still get the rating even if the next 2 reviews are negative, but don't be mean 😠)

Keep thinking about this term "pre-digested" that Kojima used to describe art that's instantly gratifying. And how it's better when people grow to love something instead.
I've gravitated, as player and designer, toward the latter, but that term "pre-digested" is new and feels very strong.

More goopy little creatures, this time as a century plant! We had one in my backyard growing up. I’m dreaming of doing some public art and would love to make murals in my community, so my personal work is focused on that mostly these days.
