Hey it's bandcamp friday so I'm going to plug my music a bit. Critics have called my work "some of the music of all time."

I'm glad folks are still finding the Bitsy Cheatsheet useful after all of this time. It is regularly one of my top viewed pages on Itch.

When ever one of those AI bros tires to tell you that artist are gatekeeping art remember that pros, armatures, hobbyist all stopped what they where doing to provide guidance to a newbie artist over the shared experience that "this one angle is hard to draw"
The "Frieren Looking Up" Art Trend attracted some Big Names in Animation! Excited for Season 2?

I did some recording for @musicweeklies.bsky.social this week.

It's a more sparse arrangement, but I enjoyed the process.

My setup is not as music-focused as I'd like at the moment. Its more tuned for code and art.

Trying to write an inventory system that handles all of the edge cases and functions over a network. These things are complicated, huh?

Look, it’s really straightforward to get a publisher as a new name indie in 2025. Simply do 95% of the work making and marketing your game, and if your metrics are trending towards almost certain success, a publisher will swoop in to promise the remaining 5%, deliver 3%, and collect 75%

Ok but there's a market gap for a game called Carbon Dating that's a dating sim about finding your hot fossil crush.

Pretty sure that, by volume, microplastics are my favorite condiment.

game genres are so fuzzy and confusing...what's an Action Adventure game?? what do you actually do in an RPG?? to fix this, i got together with loads of my lovely friends to create a much more descriptive classification system. all games can be neatly placed into the New Genres

The upside of intense brain fog is that I can code review my own work since I forget most of it within minutes!

ok but regex is so good though. yeah it's a little esoteric, but like... I have never been mad about how much time it saves when doing text parsing. 🙌

One of these days I'll post about my game, or art, or music... but not today. Stay safe out there.
