me: why do all these awful things happen to me at work like sexism and retaliation and stuff and they never happen to you?
my white husband (without pausing to think): i'm a man
me: yeah..........................
Maxx wanted to watch another episode of Black Mirror and so we picked the one where a widow makes an AI version of her husband and ends up putting him in the attic because it's not really him. It felt so fucking prescient.
I think I've been taught that radical candor is good but I think I was stupid to apply it at work. it's that fucking "the risk was calculated but I'm bad at math" meme AGAIN.
tbh every game should have one (or more)
Whatever is in the mind's eye is not a true creation. Every idea has a true Form and a real object. I am constantly trying to make the true Form of my idea but that's not possible. I must make the real object, flaws and all.
When I create, the art will exist in the way it's meant to exist.
I will make a game as if my audience is dead. I will pretend that no one is left but me and I will create what only I would like. I will deny any urges that ask me to consider the others that may stumble across the files. I will not be responsible for what anyone wants or what would be successful.
put 7 more hours in today getting the rest of the stuff for the true ending with a tiny bit of help bc that last puzzle requires outside knowledge (0/10 for that) but
If you’re a Void Stranger lover, Animal Well scratched the same itch for me.
Yeah, I do yearn for more puzzle heavy Metroidvanias that don’t have complicated systems but I’ll be putting that one on easy 😂
it’s literally me ty
I wish Hollow Knight was less hard and then I would have wanted to play it more. I didn’t really explore the game enough because exploring was punishing unlike AW or Super Metroid. I’ve been told I need to play 9 Sols now so if you haven’t played that one I suggest it.
put 13 hours into Animal Well in 3 days and I actually might 100% this game, this might be the GOAT metroidvania to me
I think everyone should be able to make art but some people who make art should have their art put in a little hole and I get to bury it and pour concrete on top so no one can dig it up
Are you some random account run by an AI trying to tell me, a human, what to do?
if you reply to this post to say anything about my looks I will instantly kill you with my mind. allow me to feel how I want without your need to tell me something different than my learned experience.
sometimes I wonder if I'm just too ugly to have ever experienced sexism
Well, Gmail just made a AI created response, without my prompting or request, to an email I got. It was extremely accurate because guess what they have? 20 years of my email history.
game developers don't owe you fun

photo of a baby touching an old keyboard on an old apple computer from the 1980s
evidently I've always liked touching computers
holy shit bluesky crushed the quality of this photo
black and grey tattoo of a snake that curls from the hand all the way up to the armpit
IT'S DONE!!
this was such an amazing experience and collab with the artist. I know you can't see the whole thing in this photo because it goes up much further, but once it's healed I'll have more photos to share. this arm feels so gorgeous now.
lol well I'm not buying Mewgenics because the dude who harassed me for years who got hella famous for making call out video essays has a voice cameo YIKES
oh, how it's cruel that I don't have an inner visual world, how I can't imagine a red and tawny apple, fresh from the branch, glistening with dew, little teeth marks in its flesh, a browning leaf stuck to the stem, held in a blistered, tan hand with chewed uneven nails
then I realized I'm an idiot
quick question how do I make it illegal for people to make indie horror games where you play as the Bad Man who assaults and harms women?
I'll have to check! I think it also checks the transcript of the video now so maybe that'll help
It's not like my games have other games with the same name, but you try looking for things like
"Pet game steam" or
"Start Running game steam" which is incredibly misleading or
"In The Foundations game steam" which is just not helpful
I have made a new game-ish, and I'm grappling with the name. The games I've made so far have had names that truly are impossible to search for playthroughs or reviews. I cannot have this struggle again.
you see me standing on the sidewalk with a megaphone and all i'm screaming over and over is
PERFECT IS THE ENEMY OF DONE
PERFECT IS THE ENEMY OF DONE
