The wrong people own the future, your friends are imprisoned and the world is about to end. There’s no more time for deliberation.

It is time for desperate actions.

It is finally time to end the Age of Reason.

Virtue’s Heaven is now out on Steam:

Haven't discounted my games on itch, but if you buy a copy of Virtue's Heaven at full price, you're effectively gifting a free copy to someone who cannot afford it (=buying the game adds a community copy):

Black-Friday anti-sale. Normally many of my games are free, today you can pay $4.99 for them.

Proceeds go to buying me more time to find a job before I lose everything.

Bad News: I don't think I'll get that playable test for JRPG game done before the end of the year

Good News: It will actually be a bit bigger than I initially thought it would be.

Lost another hour to that strange slow-down bug that Game Maker has put into my projects with its latest update.

Tried a slightly different solution that seems to work, but then: This is what I thought with the one I used before as well.

The diplomatic "achievement" of the ceasefire was to recalibrate the tempo of the genocide sufficiently to get it off the front pages and the news bulletins, thus alleviating the political pressure on Israel's western accomplices.

Israel still committing genocide in Gaza, Amnesty International says
The NGO’s chief says last month’s ceasefire ‘risks creating a dangerous illusion that life in Gaza is returning to normal’

If you need something to scroll through on your phone whilst ignoring your family and would prefer to not have social media tear at your corneas then perhaps try binging my weird Let's Play or reading my various interesting blog posts
I plan on continuing with a truncated NG+ to show some alternate options, but worth noting my old-style screenshot Let's Play of an obscure fan-translated JoJo's Bizarre Adventure fangame that began on Cohost has hit end credits of a full playthrough. Read it!

Fiddling around with JRPG game's inventory system and I'm considering the option to NOT let players sort their inventory.

I'm just curious what it feels like if your adventure backpack works like my desk, where sometimes you know that an item has to be in there somewhere, but you've no idea where.

There's a certain joy in engaging in media, without knowing much about it beyond rumours. I've been doing this a lot lately and I found some really cool things that way.

The downside is that every now and then you pick something up that just isn't working for you.
