I'm Koko [It/Its] and I make weird games!

Most of the time, this means I'm making a jam games in a week, but sometimes it's a physical ttrpg or zine!

I'm both MtF Trans and Therian, and I tend to reflect these things in the art I make.

Because it needs to be said:

The Salvation Army does not exist to save you

The Salvation Army exists to convert you

And if they cannot convert you, they will not lift a finger to save you

Do not support those whose “charity“ comes with conditions
It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

I dont have any finished art of these fellas but i do have this sketch i made on a stream earlier in the year. I want them to look a little different from this but this at least shows off the 4 eyes.
Man, naming shit is so fuckin' hard. ;3;

The WORDS I use don't SOUND real. It sounds so made up.

"MalSies Syndrome" feels too divorced from reality.

Are there any writers, or like- other indie game devs who know how to get over the cycle of renaming parts of your story over and over again?

Been seeing more clowns lately and honestly, good for you, glad you get a turn to be normalized a lil more. Pup players are everywhere, everyone has at least one babyfur friend, therians are howling up a storm, it's clown time. Honk-honk 🤡
Yeah, at about 1.5 years of having a game up that offers both, my ratio of browser plays to downloads averaged 4/1.
man! Obscure digital recording media my beloved,,

One day, I wanna have a collection of every strange proprietary way to store data that never caught on >3<
Some people use CD's for their nostalgic collectables.

Other creatures grew up with the PSP.

I'd like to submit a name proposal for this inevitable wave of nostalgia: Gloomer Shooters

For the cynics who think it doesn’t matter, that the compensation for authors whose work was stolen will be so low it’s not worth fighting, I personally think it’s worth making the monetary punitive damage these companies suffer as big as possible to deter similar theft in the future.
A federal court ruled that ANTHROPIC illegally copied MILLIONS of books to train its AI.

All authors and publishers whose books were downloaded by Anthropic from pirate websites are subject to receiving compensation. This could involve your work.

Wooooah, the GROWL on that ambiant noise is cooool!

I really love your character designs in this, too! It's like if Mike Klubnika worked on Blair Witch!

"You may be here forever."

Got a new world-wrap setting made for my PSX-Styled indie game! Its the first vector math code snippet I made by myself, so I'm kinda proud of it.

Welcome to v4 of the Blue Sky Game Dev orientation 🧵!

Let's get you started with the basics of Bluesky, finding other devs, and posting about your games!

Btw, this is based on the artist orientation thread from @purlane.ink; make sure to check it out if you’re also on the art side of game dev!
Welcome to the Bluesky artist orientation 🧵!

This will get you started on the basics of how this network works, how to connect with other artists, and how to get your art seen.

If you’re a furry, I also highly recommend checking out @buttplug.engineer's furry orientation thread below:
Welcome to qDot’s “So you’re a furry that just joined bsky” 🧵

A guide to other posts on the network and servers furries should know because I’m sick of repeating myself

First up, @kamu.bsky.social ’s Furry Roll-call thread. Comment to let others know you’re here.
I saw it, hell yeah!!

I love little jam games like that!
Start of the new week!

I think I'm going to try and post at least one thing from my current project that I'm proud of every week.

Hopefully that will keep me motivated and maybe inspire one of yous!

YOOO I love the One-Page Jam, I signed up last year and had a blast- fuck yeah.
The best thing I did to improve my aesprite workflow was just... learning all the keybinds I regularly use. The linked image would previously take 20-30 minutes, but knowing keybinds shaved off 5-8 minutes. That adds up when you're making TONS of sprite variations.

I’d make the case that Caves of Qud is one of the standout works of SF in the 21st century thus far. It’s taken over a decade; it’s sprawling; it has its own idiosyncratic but consistent epistemologies that are only learnable by fucking around. So to see it recognized by the field is so validating.

SEXUALITY AND GENDER IS SO SCARY TO HAVE TO FIGURE OUT ALONE. SO THE FACT THAT A FURRY HAS THE POWER TO DRAW A PICTURE OR WRITE A STORY THAT CHANGES SOMEONES WHOLE LIFE BY GIVING THEM A GLIMPSE AT THEIR INNER SELF TO DREAM ABOUT & EXPLORE? THATS NOTHING LESS THAN MAGIC TO ME
My big secret is that the like... top ten games I tell everyone to play? I finished maybe seven of them

Sometimes I just play something and I FUCK with it hard enough to be like: "Yeah, this outclasses anything else I've been playing."

Sometimes life happens and I don't finish it- still sick tho!
Oh man, this is still around, hunh?

Well, I'm back to making games- that means new projects going up on Itch, and I may be opening my old Patreon.

I know not that many people follow me, but I hope I can look back on this moment now and be proud of where I've come from.
