Keep your mind on the goals today! The worst time to drop the focus is at the middle of the run, as it were.

Keep yourself together and push through! You got this!

I got Madman's Dice a category on Twitch today, answered emails and got some more polish work done!

Excited about the final results of all my labor! Can't wait for everyone to see my next game! :D #gamedev

Good Morning Post 2426:

A smile can solve many problems, don't you know!

It raises our mood, reminds us to ponder our state in a more positive light, and even just makes us work better!

So don't forget to smile, for your own sake!

Officer DaMickey @officerdamickey.bsky.social · 1d

It's not even sadness or frustration thinking about it, just a usual sense of curiosity - to people and to what's going on.

I don't know, I guess I just wanted to pitch these thoughts to the world and see what people thought too.

Officer DaMickey @officerdamickey.bsky.social · 1d

I feel an odd sense of distance when I observe all the camaraderie among Vtubers and creators in general and I usually sit off and watch from afar.

It's like, I'd love to be part of it but somehow being an observer and never quite being totally in one group makes more sense.

I got the streaming schedule right here! All streams start at 7PM EST!

I almost decided to play Dark Souls 1 on Thursday, but I've never played Doom 64 before so that sounds fun!

Hope everyone has a great week! #gamedev #twitchtv

Good Morning Post 2425:

Staying calm during a crisis takes courage and practice. Don't let your nerves overwhelm you, but let them guide you; see the fire and trace the paths!

You can do this!

Had another excellent stream! Despite the power turning off for a minute there, I had a great time playing Caesar III! It is tough but rewarding to master being lord of a city!

Huge thanks to @bubz491.collects.games for the raid! We raided over to @masteraxelfury.bsky.social 's birthday stream!

For one brief moment I forgot games came with a manual, and Caesar III comes with a PDF of it and

And

It's over 100 pages long.

I was expecting a bit of reading before streaming but what??

On the emails thing, I have to keep reminding myself that sending formal requests for someone to play my game IS a business thing.

I have to remind myself constantly that I AM doing business.

Anyone else get that feeling when it comes to emails and all that?

Officer DaMickey @officerdamickey.bsky.social · 2d

Doing another quality pass on Madman's Dice today before I stream tonight, feeling excellent about its story and the gameplay!

I'm also sending emails to formally ask people if they want to play it - my nerves go crazy when it comes to shooting those shots! #gamedev #indiedev

Happy Sunday!

Good Morning Post 2424:

Some mornings start later than you'd want. That's okay - some days are lazy Sundays that need a bit of time for ourselves.

Some time makes itself into rest - other times we set it. No worries needed!

Sometimes, we have to make a big gamble to succeed in this life.

But if we never take a chance on ourselves, we never will exceed our limits and go even further beyond!

So take a breath and hit send on your dream.

Officer DaMickey @officerdamickey.bsky.social · 4d

I got an email asking me if I need a 3D animator for Madman's Dice.

A game marketed to be made in RPG Maker. 3D animation.

Either this person did not read the game page at all and is spam or they have some wizardry that I cannot trust.

Weird either way, eh?

Had another outstanding stream! We finished our first run of Silent Hill f and even got the secret joke ending!

Huge thanks to @shelbysnailvt.bsky.social and @pendingfate.bsky.social for the raids! I raided over to @lunavt.bsky.social who was playing Pokémon Z-A!

Took today a bit slower since I did a lot of bug squashing for Madman's Dice yesterday, but I'm happy that things are going well!

I'm trying to determine what comes next after Look Outside and Silent Hill f - two more weeks of spooky month for streaming, what to play next? :D

A universe without hope for the future is a bleak reality indeed.

Thank goodness we live in one where there's always a hope for tomorrow!

Let's keep at it, my friends!

Officer DaMickey @officerdamickey.bsky.social · 6d

Had another excellent stream! We succeeded and we did indeed...Look Outside!

Seriously, go check the game out! It's so good!

We raided over to @ninistarlight.com who was playing Slay the Princess! Another outstanding title!
