Hello new friends! Have you played Seasonspree yet?

It's a cute little game about cute little animal friends, and you control the flow of time by walking left & right. It's really good, and not very long, because your time is valuable!

Just realized my UX workshop could use a video with some animations or something.

So now I've got a script. But I'm not looking forward to the animation part.

Sales is hard and dumb. Someone should do this part for me.

Part of my process for making my indie game is to obsess over the setting and lore so much that I actually write the book that an NPC writes in the game
Part of my process for making my indie game, is to cheer other indie game makers.

I understand the necessary every of Black Friday emails. I just deleted about 16 in a row. And 3 were from Lensbaby.

But let's not make Black Friday texts a thing. Yes, you got my number when I bought something in the past, but that wasn't consent for more marketing.

Looking at you, Lensbaby.

I'm sure there are a bunch of Good Place easter eggs in A Man On the Inside, but this is the first one I spotted

This year I was planning on turning my storyboard, a few Godot scenes and some thoughtfully filmed FMV clips into a trailer before GDC 2026.

Instead, I spent every day of the year applying to jobs and trying to find ways to make myself employable. As I sit ere unemployed, it was all wasted time.

Just read this requirement in a job description

"A burning desire to push the world of design systems into a new age through leveraging cutting edge AI approaches to building and scaling systems"

and now I want to jump headfirst into the most currently active volcano

Getting dangerously close to not having a place to stay. I need to land some kind of work before that happens.

I've been pitching my workshop and volunteering to help startups in the area while still applying to every job I find that wouldn't destroy my soul. But something needs to change soon.

Since it's that season again and I was curious how I'd pulled it off last year, here's the reason I'm off to the grocery store.
I accidentally came up with a new vegan drink that somehow tastes a lot like egg nog today! You should try it.

Peel two oranges and blend them until they get all frothy. Add maybe half a cup of oat milk. Sprinkle in a bunch of nutmeg, then you shake it all about. It's somehow a lot like egg nog.

Steam is cowards, but they also control the market, which makes it really hard to succeed without their blessing. Support artists like this who the cowards deem unworthy.
Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

If you or someone on your team is interested in animating for games, Spine is a super powerful tool for that, and Erikari's the one you want showing you how it works!
I'll be streaming on twitch tomorrow! Spine Rigging and animation ✨

I refuse to use "DNA" when discussing a company. Businesses can't have DNA. Not only does the term humanize corporations that don't deserve it, but using it implies there are features that can't be changed for any reason.

And we've all seen every large corporation change directions HARD lately.

It's been long enough to officially conclude that I don't care for Affinity Studio's all-in-one environment. I get the appeal, but it doesn't make things any easier to work with. I just spend too much time wondering which mode I should be in.

ChatGPT launched three years ago. Now the web is filling with slop.
We can rewild it, but we'll need to get creative...

Today I’m launching The Human-Made Project, a simple and decentralized way to label creative works as being made by a human, not by AI. thehumanmade.org

This is wild. I've been dreaming of a world where NPCs don't all follow the same rigid animation when dancing or celebrating a victory or just existing in an environment, and this is a huge step in that direction.
Gave penguins timing-sensitive motor planning capabilities. In other words, they can try to move a body part to a specific place *at a specific time*. This is vital for NPCs with a sense of rhythm or good reflexes!

The first thing I do when I open a job description is search for "AI," and imagine how quickly my instinctive disappointment with seeing it highlighted here evolved into excitement for what looks like a perfectly parallel reflection on garbage technology.
