Today in Night Owl X,

We're working on our idle animations for NPCs, breathing some life into the world.

Really enjoying how much of a piece of shit this NPC comes across as now.

Strange to think I released my first ever #TTRPG book over 3 months ago!

In Death was a labour of love that I'm very proud of, and it's surreal it out there in the world and in the hands of players.

To any who've picked up a copy already, thank you and I hope you enjoy it.

Today in Night Owl X,

I started adding in talking animations for NPCs, which will come in tandem with some more complex idle animations to breathe a bit more life into the world.

Writing all of this guy's lines like Edgar Allen Poe poems and it's *killing me* 😭

It's been 20 years and I still don't know why they made him look like that.

Today in Night Owl X,

I spent some time working on the Barber Shop's "Secret Menu" - a slew of hidden hairstyles for players to try.

Today in Night Owl X,

These dumb point pop ups took me WAY longer than they realistically should have.

This week in Night Owl X,

I made these little door prefabs for the two existing shops. One takes Nox to the Clipper Wings barber shop to choose new hairstyles, and the other to Hoot Cups coffee shop to purchase movement upgrades.

Had a great time hosting In Death at Angry Cherry yesterday 😁 Was incredible getting to see the system in action and sharing the game with new players. Thanks to everyone who came out to play, the game team, and Angry Cherry for hosting 🎉

Really enjoying the CRT filter on the N64 Virtual Console. Between that and the Switch N64 controller, its as close to the original as can be. 🥰

Miro has become my go-to for pretty much every project in terms of pre-production and organisation. Literally can't remember what I did before my little every-growing miro boards of madness.

My set up is so mismatched. Game Dev meets writing a novel about a victorian apothecarist.

Think I've nailed it. 10 Points to whoever gets it - though of course, I could NEVER legally confirm if you guess it right. 😏

"Babe, come back to bed."

"Not now, darling. I'm making pixel art of derogatory bird-themed parodies of alternative music culture celebrities."
