After weeks of teasing, I'm very excited to officially show you all:
Gameplay of Calico Wilder!

I've been working with @waveparadigm.com, @littlenorwegians.bsky.social, and some friends to build the first of Calico's adventures, and I'm super thrilled with how it's coming along!

I think this is where I'm currently landing for my Games of the Year atm. Subject to change and there's a few games here that I need to play more of (or at all, thanks Prime 4). But this seems to be how it's shaking out atm. Prime 4 will probably end up in the Top 10 once it comes out but who knows.

Very excited to share that, thanks to the ever-so-talented @littlenorwegians.bsky.social,

Calico's girlfriend Lilly Regnalia now has a 3D model too! ^^
I did another commission for @benjamage.bsky.social !
This time of Lilly Regnalia.

Thank you once again for the opportunity, Ben 💙

This is just going to drive more people to making original media and away from major companies like Disney.

Between the nonstop sequels and live-action remakes no one asked for, it’s hard not to see it as a nonstop IP slop factory… ESPECIALLY with AI onboard.
Bob Iger says Disney+ will soon have AI-generated short form content from users

Guess I'll take the opportunity to confirm, the Calico Wilder project does not and will not use AI.

This adventurous scrimblo was 100% human-made.

I feel more validated in saying that the real Game Awards is all the “Games of the Year” videos individual people make, especially by year’s end or next year’s beginning.
I mean, we all knew The Game Awards is basically two E3 presentations wearing a trenchcoat, and Geoff Keighley an empty, light, flaky Kojima Productions-branded phyllo dough shell of a man. But god damn.

I am once again begging y'all to elevate the DICE and BAFTA game awards above this shit.
