Hold The Mine has been in development since December 2023. Here is a timelapse of the shots I have taken almost every day from the first day until today.

Happy #PortfolioDay!
I place and sometimes animate pixels. I really like top-down environments, tilesets and limited palettes.

A top-down view of a cathedral-like structure, with many columns. At the very center, a giant baldachin, firmly standing on twisted columns. The altarpiece is mounted in a rich baroque frame, surmounted by stained glass rose window. A tall, bat-headed vampire is guarding the altar, with bats flying around. A richly adorned pipe organ can be seen to the eastern gallery. Along the transept in front of the absis, two enclosed naves host a Pietà statue and a reliquiary.
Many huge chandeliers hang above the central nave, and lots of candles are scattered around the cathedral. A few zombies and skeletons are marching towards the entrance, where a group of adventurers is preparing for battle, being surrounded.

To the side of the absis altar, downward staircases lead to the crypt. A huge skeletal dragon guards a closed gate. Many huge chandeliers hang above the central nave, and lots of candles are scattered around the cathedral.

Below the Cahedral, an underground Ossuary crypt, with walls made out of bones and skulls. An eerie light permeates the various locales, featuring grates, numerous walls of wax, monumental coffins and pillars. A Lich warlock is channeling dark magic by a sarcophagus.

The Tower above houses a giant bell. A faraway city can be seen from the terrace, as a Griffin guards the bell beam.

A secret room with four chandeliers features many tombs. There, a lady-like demon with bat wings floats above a marble coffin.

A topdown pixel art remake of Ruin Valley, from Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen. Many ancient structures can be seen emerging from the steep cliffsides and lush tropical vegetation: temples, tall palaces and mysterious pathways and towers. A moltitude of pokemon and trainers can be seen around. To the east, the ocean with tall waves and a jagged coastline. Water and fossil pokemon live there. At the center of the valley, the legendary pokemon trainer Red is entering the Dotted Hole ruins. Peculiar rock formation resembling regi pokemon are scattered throughout the environment.

A top down, aerial view of a city and its outskirts by a swampy river. The streets are filled with people, and the architecture has a distinctive early twentieth century aesthetic, with rich bent iron structures.

A collection of tiny pixel art pokemon scenes, featuring:
1. Chinchou swimming under the waves
2. Lanturn jumping above the waves at night
3. Corsola on the seafloor
4. Horsea in a cave underwater
5. Seadra in a kelp forest
6. Kingdra among whirlpools
7. Swinub at home, sleeping on a carpet
8. Piloswin taking a bath in hot springs
9. Mamoswine traversing a snowstorm
10. Cleffa hovering in space
11. Three Clefairy dancing at Mt. Moon Crater
12. Clefable in the middle of a pond, looking at the stars
13. Porygon in a strange labyrinth
14. Porygon2 running on a mobius strip
15. Porygon-Z floating in an old screensaver
16. Bonsly sitting on the porch as the rain starts to fall
17. Sudowood taking shelter from heavy rain in a mountain cave
18. Mew looking at the viewer through fish-eye lens
19. Sunkern floating in a summer meadow
20. Sunflora basking in the sunlight over a sunflower field
21. Celebi flying through Ilex Forest

Hi :) Quick Tamamon update ✨ I've added:

- a swimming dash 🌊
- a climbing dash 🧗

I hope that this will allow for more interesting and engaging climbing and swimming sections. Please let me know what you think!

Been working on some NES compatible mockups for a game of mine! I haven't made absolutely sure everything is compliant yet-- I'm just having fun exploring.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Been playing lost Eidolons Veil of the Witch, and I'm surprised !
Tactical RPG like Fire Emblem but with rogue lite mechanics, I thought it could have felt meh, but a good mix overall.

If you want to play "Hades : The Tactical", it might not be the same universe, but mechanically you won't be lost

Dans cette étude menée par @buffer.com sur 18 MILLIONS de posts, la conclusion est claire et nette : si vous ne payez pas, vous n'existez pas. Si vous payez, vous n'existez pas non plus ! Sauf si vous avez l'abo le + cher et là, les bots vous ciblent directement, alors vous avez de "l'engagement" 👍

Graphique de portée médiane X premium VS X non premium entre août 2024 et août 2025. Les non premium frôlent avec le 0, les premium entre 700 et 1000 (avec tendance baissière en prime)

Graphique d'engagement médiane X premium VS X non premium entre août 2024 et août 2025. Les non-premium s'ecroulent depuis janvier 2025 pour toucher le 0 depuis juillet 2025. Le premium passe de 0,3% à 0,4%.

Graphique de portée médiane X basic, premium, premium plus et X non premium entre août 2024 et août 2025. Non premium et basic sont quasi inexistants, Premium l'est un peu moins. Premium plus est le seul de vraiment visible.
