Nerdy Sysadmin/Devops guy who is into nerdy things. Deeply connected to things that let me work with my hands and mind. Love writing, reading, guitar, programming, the 80s and 90s, TTRPGs, video games, and tattoos. Dad to one son and two cats.
I have always loved to draw but never took it seriously. I started to do some studying as well as reading a book that was recommended to me by a friend who is an artist for a living. These are a week apart. The newer one is the first time I have felt proud about something I drew

I have an unhealthy obsession with buy my friends random and cringe shirts. I should stop, but they keep wearing them so I feel like that's a sign to keep going.

Fixed a Panasonic alarm clock with a CRT TV in it and then played some Atari 2600 on it. Love me some nerdy shit. How's your Friday going, everyone? What nerdy stuff are you up to?.

I miss my CRT collection. Lost a large portion of it due to a falling out with someone, been slowly rebuilding it. Not near what it was though.

Well, took me like 6 hours today but I got the Dialogue Manager in my Godot project and working. Mind you this is the first time I have ever done anything like this. My first like, real game I am making. ASCII art, old terminal colors, no mouse input. Lots of in depth system, lots of humor.

Friend of mine found a Model M keyboard while cleaning out his grandparents stuff for them. He snagged it and sent it to me and now I'm so excited to have this piece of mechanical keyboard history.

Game devs, question for you. Should I A) Keep developing my game in C# to run in the OS native terminal or B) start over in Godot? I'm worried that running something in console is too technical for an end user, and Windows 11 base terminal settings breaks my game.

Not a great look for an official that was appointed by the president. #ElonMusk giving the nazi salute to the crowd then the flag behind him. Love to see how the right tries to explain this one away.

Is there any interest in a ASCII art, console based, humorous detective game I have been developing? It started as a way to me to understand OOP better when learning C#, then just spiraled out of control. I have no idea if this is something people want though.

I buy lots of VHS tapes, rip the video and upload it to YouTube. It's a super fun hobby and it lets me get bathed in nostalgia. Retro tech is so fun.

Working on my first big project game and it took an embarrassing long amount of time to get the click-to-move ability to work. But, as an added bug (bonus) you can click on the player and it makes them fly. Neat. Not sure I will take that out, or if I should just leave it and have it be funny.
