It was an absolute pleasure to be a guest on the @indieinnovators.bsky.social podcast to share my experiences working as a #solodev and around the #indiegames scene over the last few years. I still have a long ways to go!

Hoping to announce my latest project soon™, so stay tuned!

Gm again Bluesky! It's another #solodev Saturday for me! Got my #coffee and I'm ready to go!

This weekend, I'm continuing my environment modeling and hoping to add a few new mechanics :)

Any other devs out there doing the same?

Hmm no that can't be right, let me consult the flow chart again...
Oh uh-huh, yep, it's right.

Finished the @okanagangda.bsky.social Summer Game Jam this weekend. It was an absolute blast! We made a Tamagotchi inspired creature collector called "Gotchie Doggie" for the theme of "Dog days of Summer" Special thanks to @ogopogoid.bsky.social who did all the art for the game! 🍻

Isn't that the one with an Ice Palace, and essentially what is the Hammer of Dawn space laser from the Gears of War on steroids?

What's the problem? Oh wait thats the one with the wind surfing scene, right... Carry on.
