I may be captain of the ship that's more often Muppet Treasure Island than Master & Commander, but all credit goes to the AUG team🦄

Happy sixth birthday, @aspiringunicorngames.com🦄
I'm proud of what we've built, of the work we've done; for folks at @thebehemoth.com on Castle Crashers to @obsidian.net on The Outer Worlds 2.
Most of all, as a dad, I'm proud that my kids like the games we make 😍 #gamedev
We had so much fun on this one!
Incredible work, team!
@obsidian.net showed off some incredible new gameplay for #TheOuterWorlds2, including some of the new UI Aspiring Unicorn Games created!
Check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7zA...
More coming soon; watch this space! 🦄
I’m fairly convinced the “four leaf clovers are lucky” thing was started by a parent who just wanted some quiet time.
Such a cool idea; glad we were a part of it!
Every. Time. I see what AUG’s #TheOuterWorlds2 team is up to I’m absolutely floored
Just incredible work 🦄
So excited to finally share what we've been cooking up!🦄
Me making programmer art:
I paid for 256 colors, I’mma use 256 colors
You’re doing great, buddy; just hang in there :)
Time for another row!
I'll need lots of space for all the titles AUG will be shipping this year 😉🦄
A helluva a year, but I couldn’t be prouder of my team🦄
🎵 Fros-ty the snow-man is tech-nic-ally the hat on top
🎵 The magic in the hat doesn’t re-ally care what shape the snow is in
This project was a blast!
Miss you too, buddy!
Haha thanks! I’m really just glad they had such a good day; could’ve been a sugar-fueled rager, and not the good kind
Also; cheers, fellow dad! Hope you & the King clan are doing well!
Twins are asleep, the house is a mess, there are tire tracks in the yard from the rental power wheel cars (did y’all know that was a thing?)
But they had an amazing day.
Happy birthday littles & happy parent-aversary to us
This is awesome; we need to be sharing more & more often
Does anyone know of a compendium for all of these kinds of resources? Or is it a xkcd.com/927/ kind of situation?
The Law of Cool UI in #gamedev:
Every game since 2002, regardless of genre or style, will reference Minority Report (2002) at some point in its development cycle.
See also: curved HUDs, mostly transparent & boxy menus, and blurry/down-sampled backgrounds
Like most businesses, running a co-dev studio is mostly looking at spreadsheets
Today though, it's asking candy companies for bulk discounts to send my team a little somethin' somethin' for the end of the year🦄
If we haven't met yet, I'm Andrew; a former "AAA" programmer who ventured out to create a UI/UX co-dev studio named Aspiring Unicorn Games 🦄
My team & I are just about to wrap our 5th year; it's been a wild ride so far (see below), and we're looking forward to 2025
