Re-did that Power Girl pixel art. Was aiming to do a more 90s Cacpom Vibe this time, but gave up on that halfway lol. Thankfully the face turned out cuter, though

Huh, just realized that a lot of what i wish bluesky's would do is implemented by just... people with an art only account or whatever

One of the most important skills you can learn as a young artist is how to disregard critiques from people whose opinions about how you draw don’t really help you.

Random ttrpg trap: mini black hole/ sphere of annihilation inside something you're seemingly meant to break. Goodbye hammer. Alternatively: one of those inside a flesh golem as a countermeasure to it being sliced apart

Random runner ups (unordered): - spyro 2: ripto's rage - mario galaxy - terraria - Magicka - hyper light drifter - OneShot - Portal 2 - Shantae and the Pirate's curse

3. There's a little girl who appears telling baku he's helpless in episode 1, unclear who to me. could be nem? if so that has worrying implications for her "accident"

4. this one isn't scary but his meeting Zero seems to occur after walking through his own mind's door, so that's interesting.

2. people noted that the cram school baku went to is featured in episode 1 when he overcomes his nightmare, but haven't seen it mentioned how the dream seems to be about failing to save nem from being shot

(look at the dream's narrative BEFORE baku reveals himself as Seven + how the nightmare aims directly at NEM when baku re-emerges from meeting Zero)

1. Kureha seems to be operating like Baku did at the start of the series, not using a rider form, but instead just fighting with skill and TONS of lucid dreaming skll, implying that this was the best code had for a LONG time

Sometimes i remember being "competitive" in games means you're really good at making a spreadsheet of systems made from someone else's spreadsheet.

FIENDCATCHER VERSION 0.2 IS HERE! This is my first public playtest in over a year, and I'm super excited to share the progress I've made. Come visit the realm of Sordalis and sow some chaos! emoglobin.itch.io/fiendcatcher #gamedev #indiegame #playtest

doing a gamejam with a friend. Space travel via gravity fields. Added a level bounds/killzone and a black hole this morning after about 45 min

Recently, I've come to the realization that when I'm upset, i tend to alternate between sharing absurdly specific passions and giving crestfallen lamentations. Sometimes within minutes.

"I'm not allowed to have dreams. Those are something for humans" .... "I saw this fascinating competitive pokemon tech the other day. Apparently roar was used on a farigiraf to-"

I was half asleep on the bus, and I read "lease company" as "lesbian coalition" somehow, and now I keep picturing an armada of girls armed with guns that fire yuri books

A friend suggested I try adding candlelight for the nighttime scenes. I spent about a day and a half trying a few methods out, and settled on a simple toon-style binary shader. It accounts for shadows too! Oh wait, I was supposed to be writing dialogue....

Everyone knows the TRUE gamers are playing mini metro on a plane seat so good that it starts to lag after a bit and then you're just waiting for like 10 min for 5 seconds of lucid GAMER time!!!!!!
