I made a video essay! It's a love letter to 3d software crammed in between several hate notes about 3d software companies. Maybe it can be something you put on in the background while you do art. :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4md...

Top Gnome is now officially out of Early Access! Haven't been too active on here for (mostly) this reason. Took way longer than it had any right to, but that's just how it goes in gamedev I guess?

I had a great conversation with @onyxprismstudio.bsky.social that we're going to continue for a podcast, and one of the points that is so important for developers to understand is how difficult and vital it is to get playtesting done and to understand what people are saying about your game.

An interesting thing we have noticed about our game.
Once you get used to the mechanics and "git gud" it behaves kinda like a mental fidget spinner.
People with ADHD seem to be able to focus in conversation better, including the devs :)

I find confident decisions comes from one of two places:
1) Prior experience and mistakes
2) Reflecting your thoughts off of others
If you don’t have the former, seek the latter.

It takes 1 second and saves you trying both sides and somehow only plugging it in right when you look at it
