I write, make, draw, play, game, and do handsome faces. I made Hive Time. Currently making Fossil Sweeper (a game about digging up fossils), Winter's Wake & Icicle (and a stack of side things).

If I appear to have boosted or engaged with LLM slop, please let me know. Obviously I do my best to avoid it, but douchecanoes are actively working to make that harder.

All things considered, the Steam Machine prices are cheaper than I was expecting. Supply chain/hardware ecosystem is proper fucked, and feel like I see that reflected here?
Going live with week 2 of Sproggiwood for #TurnBasedTuesday in just a moment. The game isn't quite the RPG I thought it was, but I don't mind a straight dungeon crawler, and some of the writing is fun!

Spent a bunch of time on stream today wrestling with a "RuntimeError: Operator bpy.ops.object.shape_key_move.poll() failed, context is incorrect" error in the Blender addon I'm writing.

After reading through some Blender source code and still not understanding what it wanted, I noticed that the object I expected to be selected/active at the point it errored out was not. Turns out I was setting the active object to a new thing before I'd linked that new thing to the current scene. Whoops.

I know the AI pilled will never understand this but when it comes to art (of all kinds), human effort and the story of that process is the entire point. Jerry's Map illustrates that kind of perfectly. Someone could generate something very similar with AI in no time, but as a result it would be entirely worthless. Jerry's is priceless.
