Game Dev/Musician with trash taste formerly up in Alaska. Could be the frostbite...
Developer of "My Cat Malice" - Out now!
So one of my favorite games is a gameboy rpg-superlite about doing chores…

So now a month out from releasing my first game, and all I gotta do for launch is

-finish up fixing hi-score saving
-one final playtest to set base high scores
-work on thank you gifts for the crew that helped me get here.

It’s super exciting.

My Cat Malice, out August 1st

Finally put at least enough art to make a demo of my cat-zoomie break-stuff platformer My Cat, Malice. This is the furthest I've brought a game and it's about time to start showing it. #gamedev

Built a main screen for my cat-based speed platforming game, which also happens to be my first full game. I'm excited how it's coming together.

Thank you to @wy477.bsky.social for the assistance in troubleshooting and helping me how to think like a dev.

So after about an hour of swearing at the steam deck for defying all my attempts to implement the Input library for Gamemaker, decided to run a Windows build in handheld.

No idea why that worked, but surreal to be playing a game I’m making on a fight stick. Feels like full circle from being a kid…

Just started developing an arcade game about my cat, Maggie. She was not pleased that her digital self could jump into the window easily.

So I finally made the MIDI sync and collisions work in #Godot, and we now have a playable prototype for WhiteManDance. Now begins the act of fleshing it out to a full game! If you want to try the prototype, you can find it here: hiccupetc.itch.io/whitemandanc...

Some rough sketchups of the current project: a simple little random draw game. Has since been replaced by some vector work, but I might switch it out for these since it has a Rorschach vibe to it almost.
