Caught this huge cruise ship putting in to port, while on a walk. So big...
Apparently they had an outbreak of Norovirus, and dumped all their tourists in town today.

Incredible news!
If the scheme stays the same, seems like it would apply to any creative workers paying taxes and living in the Republic of Ireland.
Uses a broad definition of arts that covers a lot of work too.

Mentioned this a while back, but I've come into possession of a bunch of Vogue and Good Housekeeping magazines from the 60s onward, which don't seem to be archived anywhere.
Does anyone know of any ways to digitize these quickly? I'm willing to scan these by hand, but I bet there's a quicker way.

Hikeys with Psyché.
She was very brave, and kept zipping down hills and leaping up into trees with her momentum. Wore herself out!

Stood up the last wall with a bit more help, just now.
The next two walls should be easier, but gotta save those for a future weekend. My legs are stiff, and my delicate programming hands are blistered and just about out of grip strength, lol.
Was great though. Turns out I love carpentry!

Got a late start yesterday, but we finished framing wall 2!
Starting to feel like, if I had materials and a plan, I could probably build a small shack. Might take me a few weeks though.

I'm simply the last bulwark between this kitty, and someone else rolling over and flattening her into a pancake.

My "game dev jobs continue to implode" plan involves equal parts spinning up an overambitious solo indie project, and getting experience in practical Economic Depression skills like carpentry, machining, soldering, and welding, just in case.

Made a little geometry diagnostic tool for this game, and it ended up being kinda pretty.
I want to turn it into a level loading effect, now.

Thanks so much for coming out to support our game's launch, y'all!
I've gathered reviews from folks whose names I recognize, and passed them to the rest of the team. Everybody who streamed and shared it, or left an encouraging word has helped us keep working on our silly little human zoo sim! <3

Cool to see concepts for some of the cut zones from Sonic 2 too. I love the strong color schemes and identities for each area!

This got me looking at other concepts, and Hirozaku Yasuhara's illustrations are so charming.
