Thinking about my very first album, Volyoom 1.
Late 90s tracker tunes made on my first computer.
No plugins. No mixing chops. Just curiosity, noise, and too many late nights.
It’s raw, flawed, and full of fingerprints. A proper time capsule.

My @Bandcamp fan club is live. No merch yet—just me doing it solo: art, code, music.
People spend $$ on unused subs. I’ve got albums and a Steam game on the way. That’s more than nothing.
Support helps. One crash, one rebuild at a time. 💜

Updated my bleep bloops on Bandcamp for Circuit Bent Syndrome. More coming soon—assuming the Effexor withdrawal doesn’t zap my brain into a fine mist. Making games is hard right now, so I’m anime-binging until my soul reboots. 💀

Well, I decided to accept all friends on Facebook and see if I can squeeze any networking or promotional use. It feels like I'm doing something. I'm not. I'm kinda just reporting people that steal other people's photos and try to catfish with them. Maybe I can get some attention here. X is bad too.

Laying down: does it make you lazy? Can you work vertically? I think I'm having trouble focusing since I set up compy in the bedroom, but it's just so comfy and I can drift in and out. But I can't really get as much done and I get distracted even easier. Maybe I should try upside down? Inside out?

I've got a question for you fellow gamedevs: How do you plan your levels? Paper, clay, lego, in engine/3d, greyboxing, etc.? I'd love to know.

I needed to watch this. I have a hard time with advice. It's not that I don't take it, I just end up winding other ideas into the advice so it's a strange creature to tame when I go in, with a strange creature, but not great plan. This seems like a great plan. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ES4q...

Development update for Quantum Drifter:
Update for PreChristmas Alpha status, yo! Hope to have a first demo before Santa comes!
Started the Blender version of the default ship. Note the Pod and pilot. The escape pod will give you a chance to get back to your station. The Pilot graphic is for testing out other things, but also....

Had a tough May! Lots of wonky things and ick but I managed to plunge a bit into the alpha of my Shooter. I'm not referring to it as anything in particular. I get a bit carried away with the future, dreaming, and visions. So, it's a tentative shooter, with modular ship parts, youtu.be/JA70zNG3DeU
Modular Stuff Update (Fatalspace is still Go, like Thunderbirds but less so)
It may not be called Fatalspace: The No-No Zone by the time I'm done wit it but it's still a thing I'm doing. In Godot. For great Justice and all the Ziggs I can take off. Gotta wonky prototype and Alpha versions will be here: https://gemini-squish-games.itch.io/fatalspace-the-no-no-zone

Latest Fatalspace update vid! 0.1.6p. Bombs are more dynamic and have settings giving them fun, tactical uses(still wip needs tweaks). NPC Dialogs with Animal Crossing like voices! Better Shields and fixes so I can use a better physics engine than the Godot default.
