if anyone is in SF this week

this weird escape room-ish experience i've been working on is coming together. it is inspired by the experiences of Gazelle Samizay helping artists and queer people evacuate Kabul as the Taliban re-took it. im super proud of it!

we are also doing technical tests and a soft opening Sunday and Monday nights respectively. let me know and i can get you into those!

quick note: we've officially extended the deadline another week (to end of day next Friday, the 15th) to submit to the Experimental Game Workshop at GDC this coming year! if you still have something you want to submit, you have more time to pull together something!

see the below couple posts for more info about the session and where to submit ↓

Hot art tip for saving money:

You can refill your Micron (or similar) pens when they dry up. There are several YouTube videos, but basically pop the end off, shake out the sponge-tube, drip whatever ink you like into the sponge slowly until it's wet through, then re-assemble. Voila! Like new!

I think I originally discovered this through a post on Mastodon, but I’ve long since lost the original post, so if you’re out there, thanks OP!
