I can usually be found making video games, playing video games, or sleeping. Currently working on cozy plant care game "Plant Sitting" in Godot!

one of the classic japanese game hobbiests, Kenta Cho recently tied together 111 of his single-button games into an old-school wario-ware you can play on your phone (he's been making tiny free games since the 80s)

Sometime game dev is fun. But sometimes it’s slogging through a big list of boring tasks e.g when localising. However, if I put some good music in and work on it each day I can eventually get it done. So can you!

I am still working on my game but have big news! On top of my current position as a game dev instructor, I will also take on a new game dev position to prepare for my move from America to Croatia!

Mentally I'm here, knitting a bunny sweater at the 1987 Winter Consumer Electronics Show, on a Nintendo knitting machine that will never be sold to the public.

While you can't see any water yet, the can is filled by using a hand pump, and can water flowers by holding down the mouse with the can equipped. Each "watering tick" will display a water particle system raining down on the plant!

First video test for PlantSitting! Placing physics objects and rendering them to not clip through objects while held was a bit of a pain, would you like a video on how I made it work?

Working on some normal maps and lighting to get the look of the game set up, these textures will be replaced later on but I want to start building out some plant nooks! Next up, putting our watering can to good use and the addition of a sink to fill it from.
