I know I don't post schedules here anymore, but I'm celebrating three years of streaming this week and am excited to play some games again that were part of the journey's beginning! Arknights, Darkest Dungeon, Zelda, and Paper Mario are on deck this week! Cheers to three years!

Well this is ridiculous.

Why the hell is Distrokid copyright claiming an in-game song when the composer of said in-game song is also the DEVELOPER???

Shit makes no sense.

IT FINALLY HAPPENED!!! A lot of you may not see this as a big milestone or a big number, but dammit, it’s important to me! Two years of grinding is starting to take off, and I can’t wait to see what comes next! Thanks for the support, and cheers!

The results of tonight’s drawing stream. In order, I drew Kirby, Sonic, The Knight, a Slime, Sans, Cuphead, Peppino, and Pikachu. Enjoy…or don’t. Up to you!

OKAY I FIGURED IT OUT!!! Simply changing the packed scene call to a load function fixed all of my problems!

Thank you to all the #gamedev people that reached out to help fix the issue. Sorry I couldn't provide additional context, but thanks again!

I don't know if what you're describing happens here, but I've been getting this every time I try to debug. Not sure what's happening here, as I haven't changed any of the scripts on-disk.

Hey, #gamedev people of BlueSky, can someone help me figure this out?

In #GodotEngine, I'm getting a null error for a bullet I'm trying to instantiate, but the bullet is properly referenced and I'm still getting the error. Anyone know what's going on here?

I saw this posted elsewhere and thought I'd weigh in on it here.

I'm a dude with a bachelor's and a master's, and now I stream five days a week, upload videos, and do game dev and music. I may not be making money doing what I do, but I'm happier than I've ever been, and that's what counts.

Whoever decided that #Hololive and #SCPFoundation should share a shelf at this bookstore deserves a raise, this is a genius marketing tactic.

Oh shoot, ayyyy, 102 followers! Either the shill struggle has been paying off or some of you are bots, but either way, didn't think this would ever happen on a social media platform! Thanks, all!

The next schedule arrives two days early! The #Blender learning, #DragonQuestIIIHD2D, and #ZeldaTP runs continue, and I'm going back to #Unsighted and TRYING to stream #Inscryption after the video did well enough! Come whatever may, things should be a lot of fun!
January 11, 2025 at 5:14 AM
I got you
December 24, 2024 at 5:09 PM
The second half of this is subject to change, but this is what I've got going on this week! I got #Subnautica, #Antonblast, #DragonQuestIII, and possibly more #Blender, plus I'll be tackling the #DynastyWarriorsOrigins demo and streaming a mystery game! You won't want to miss what I've got going!

LMAO!!! Well, I dare argue that no one can love me more than I love me, but I’m curious to see if I cracked anyone’s top 5 this year?

Probably not on this platform, though. All things considered I don’t think I get nearly enough traction to be noticed by this algorithm lmao

I'm going on vacation this coming weekend, but will still stream! For now, I got #HollowKnight, #ResidentEvil4, and #gamedev while I'm still home, and my vacation streams will start with #BanjoKazooie! I might put something in the Tuesday spot, but I dunno yet. Either way, hope to see you there!

Still undecided on a name for the seagull project, but here's some footage of the game to get a better idea of what it is I'm making! Hope you like it!

Okay, this "Invalid Handle" thing is new. Anyone know how to resolve this?

Nearly two years on Twitter compared to slightly more than a month(?) on Bluesky, the difference is nuts. I think my outreach hasn't changed, but whatever, I'm still enjoying things, so thanks everyone!

For this week's schedule I'm playing a bunch of #SquareEnix games! Running some #FinalFantasyCrystalChronicles, #DragonQuestXI, and #KingdomHearts2, doing #gamedev (of some kind), and starting #DragonQuestIII HD-2D! There's a lot of fun to be had, and I'm looking forward to the JRPG madness!

I finished Silent Hill 2! Man, what a rush, loved every minute!

Now I’d go and get the other seven endings, but uh…yeah, I don’t have time and I’m not going to all that effort. Trails Through Daybreak and Metaphor ReFantazio are calling my name, so back to cutscene hell I go!
