It's always bitter sweet to say Goodbye to the Neo-Twiny Jam. Because it's such a fun event, and so many people showcase how creative they are with so few words!

So let's end it on a good note: raising a record-breaking $820 for LGBTQ+ orgs!

THANK YOU!!!

typography tips with tabitha!

image 1: this is Cinzel, a very popular font for book cover titles. it comes in two versions: Regular & Decorative.

image 2: this is Cinzel Decorative. it is not meant to be used like this! the swooshy versions of the letters should be used sparingly, as accents.

tips to read articles behind pay/sign-in walls:

1. refresh the page, then quickly hit the "stop loading" X.

2. throw the link in archive.org 's wayback machine.

3. click "print"; if the full article displays in the preview, save it as a pdf.

none work everywhere, but i've had all work somewhere!

to me, “you should create for yourself” and “you deserve to be acknowledged for what you make” are two statements that should coexist. chasing engagement will rot your soul, while being neglected will see your passion wither. loving what you make is a failsafe for when the engagement never comes.

If you liked a thing, leave a positive review if the platform offers the choice. These days there are so many people who thrive on leaving negative comments it helps if the rest of us really boost the things we loved. I'm going to make this the year I make other game Devs feel good about their work!
