No Players Online - the full version of the viral abandoned online FPS horror game - is back on Steam. 🎉

The game was falsely removed weeks ago, just after launching, which has severely impacted the studio's survivability.

Please spread the word, and support it! ❤️

Some photos I've taken over the years... 📸

Fun fact : The first photo is the Church of St Mary at Mistley Heath. Essex, UK. It's where Matthew Hopkins, The Witchfinder General was buried. I took a long trip there only to find out his grave was destroyed so couldn't pinpoint the exact spot 🤦

Was just about to wonder where my boy was at and he poked his head out. The grey thing is a covered cat bed on its side and he was sleeping in it. Graham is just the goofiest.

Shunichi Nagasaki’s Shikoku (1999) is equally a stunner, a J-horror cash-in on the era’s fad elevated so gorgeously by Noboru Shinoda. Love love love.

Anyway now I need to try and sleep, or at least close my eyes and ignore insomnia for a bit.

Okay. Not remotely caught up on uni but I need to start planning my next essay and researching for that. And at some point work out the masters application process and what I would like to do for it. Plus, devlog #1 for These Corridors Are Endless and a couple more revisits of some old art.

What game me you fall in love with video games?

Honestly, original Doom. It's so simple: you have gun, you shoot demons, there's MIDI approximations of metal music and it's so basic, but it never stops being fun and purely kinetic.
What game made you fall in love with video games?

There’s a couple of them but I gotta go with Ocarina of Time. My 8 year old mind got blown away when a whole world opened up in front of me after the kokiri forest! I was so excited to play the game every day to see what I could explore!

I had an argument with my boyfriend's other partner the other month and ever since both of my parents have been doing that passive aggressive "I don't know if I could stay with him knowing he was staying with someone who treated you that way" and I am just. Tired of monogamous people.

there’s a scene in the new documentary where Elizabeth Taylor is talking about the stigma of AIDS and how she got involved in the movement and it’s fucking everything

Final Fantasy XIV has a mount called the SHAGCAT and.
I. Have never needed something as much as this.

Trying to pick a favourite gargoyle to get tattooed is difficult, to say nothing of medieval illustrations and spooky films. I know I want to get some beautiful ladies to contrast all the scrunky old dudes I have.
Every time I get another tat my sis goes "what ugly old man have you got now?"

I wonder if it wants to hurt me the same way that it was hurt?

A large part of my process is taking a screenshot of the unfinished thing and then staring at it on my phone at 3 AM to see what needs fixing, no I will not be taking this under advisement.

I keep thinking about that article about "performative reading" and aside from the obvious it just makes me wonder how many people go around thinking everyone's doing something to get their attention. I suppose it makes sense regarding how some people view tats/piercings, to say nothing of my scars.

I've just discovered that apparently the incredibly bad taste marketing for the Netflix Ed Gein thing masks that it has some meta commentary about the state of true crime fandom and celebrity culture and now I'm kind of interested to see how much dissonance is involved.

I'm sorry but I can't imagine the only game I played being Fortnite or the only film I watched being Marvel, I just can't. That's very snobbish of me but these things were slop before AI, they were products, not art.

Stop me if you've heard this before, but, we're getting there. I'm much happier with the legs.

Really weird to see people being so reactionary as to say "any sort of nudity is automatically porn" regardless of context. If you can't look at a naked body without sexualising it that is very much a you problem and a "stay away from me" problem. Plus the kind of puritanical aspect to it sucks.

Trying to work out how to put bush in pixel art. Innovative stuff.
