The last 2 months have been weird.

- working out regularly
- getting solid sleep
- bought an EA game at launch
- bought an extraction shooter
- working a job that I constantly get thanked at

2025 made quite the turn toward the end, haha.

Tomorrow is my last day at my current job before starting my first big kid design job in over a year NEXT WEEK! I'm excited to be doing design work again, but even more excited to never set this alarm anymore.

Here's to the last time waking up at 4:30am for work!

Happy October! My schedule is about to smooth back out a bit meaning more game updates, more #pixelart, and possibly more streaming in the near future!

In the meantime, have a sneak peak of the #kickstarter poster reward by @tinaisoladesign.bsky.social

Started working on a new dungeon area today! Can't wait to populate this with enemies and progress toward the next boss!

Worked on more puzzle interactions today. You can now turn off the fireplace! Wonder why that would be useful :)

Had an incredible stream today! Made a ton of progress on the point & click puzzle. Might finish it up tomorrow!

Huge shout out to @qmezu.bsky.social and @eightbitsabyte.bsky.social for sharing their communities today :)

Looking forward to another stream tomorrow at Noon CST!

Starting to plan out the screen between zones. Sketched out a layout idea today on stream. I wonder how much of this will make it to production!

Dang it :( This is the main thing I was worried about. I prefer closed weapons, as I'm a battlefield player through and through, but I believe a decision has to be made. How in the world are you going to balance weapons within two distinctly different structures... #bf6 #gaming #pcgaming #beta

Progress is being made! Come hang out while we code, pixel art, and wake up!

Nope, I'm good. I loved the beta and I'm excited for the game but EA has to prove they can get it over the line first, and following up a wildly successful beta with "Yearly releases like CoD" is NOT the right call. Do better #EA...

This is not a drill. @cdutson.bsky.social is back from a relaxation filled week in the sun. Time to clip every mistake during this playthrough of Otherwar!

#twitch #indiegames #indie #pressengine #playthrough #otherwar
A reminder that my vacation is over and I'm back tonight playing Otherwar! It's Tower defense! It's Bullet hell! It's vaguely religious! It's gonna be a good time.

Big thanks to @pressengine.net for the opportunity (and the key)!

As both an indie dev AND an animator, I'm very much here for #IndieAnimationDay!

Messing around with how to animate this spin attack for our incense burner boss. Lots of smokey, fluid, AoEs are on the horizon.

Working on a new character. This is not what I pictured when I started, and I assume it won't look like this when I'm done.

Also got a ton of help from @grogdev.bsky.social today, adding #IMGUI to a new branch of the game for debugging.

Post your jank.

Your 7/10 games

For me, Too Human takes the cake! I LOVED this game and I truly miss the time of jank Co-op action RPGs. Bring back Champions of Norrath and Hunter: The Reckoning too!
