After months, finally finished it. I can recommend 👌

This is an excellent read. I've been thinking about two of my favorite games, Limbo and Inside. Creating an experience that feels bespoke at every moment and relies on no gameplay loop padding is extremely challenging. The long dev cycles on these short games doesn't surprise me.

Looking for playtesters for Biophobia! The playtest would take 15 min of your time and help me a lot! Specifically looking for gameplay/user experience and artistic feedback. Keep in mind, it's very much an art game with a challenging topic. Pls reply and I'll send you a link 🙏

Really proud to have contributed to Tempest Tower 🙏 It is a fun and adorable game with baby Peepers. If you want to know what those are you should get the free demo now on Steam.

Tempest Tower is showcasing at TAGS! You can grab a ticket here www.copenhagengamingweek.dk

Was setting up a new build for Biophobia and decided to play the old version again I released in July. It's come a far way. Hopefully I'll be able to release it in the next months.

I got the flu and stuck in bed... 😭 any recommendations for slow wholesome movies?

Its disheartening to see someone who victims blames multiple times behind closed doors, is positioning themselves as an advocate for diversity publicly. We can’t create meaningful change without authenticity. Let’s all strive to commit to trust and integrity. It’s what our industry needs 👏👏

"... the eye of the camera, the eye of the actor-protagonist and the eye of the audience - are all male, and it is with the erotic pleasure of that eye that any viewer ... regardless of any gender, must identify ...

What is your development/coding process? I always first make the ugliest spaghetti code. The cooking is important👩‍🍳 Once I know I will use the mechanic, then I clean it up nicely✨

a friendly reminder: if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all 🤷‍♀️💖

Games also compete with social media: products with a clear service to users. Instead of making a “cool” game or copying successful ones, focus on the value the game provides, intrinsic or practical. But more importantly, create something that brings you joy. Otherwise it’s all just a waste of time

Creating textures for muscles. This one is the outer muscle of the belly (the oblique muscle), or well, at least my interpretation of it.

A lot of significant UI design choices come down to doing something slightly differently or omitting the ability to do literally one thing on a screen. E.g. Skyrim’s 4-way menu to select a submenu slows down access to every submenu but it removes all controls / prompts for cycling between them.

I'm adding tiny details to the gameplay of Biophobia. I think when your game is about a challenging subject, you have to use your craft to make it appealing so people can connect. I aim to create a visceral experience that balances awe, horror, and compassion. Hopefully, it will feel just right.

Reposting this guide from twitter because I COOKED here. (and still refer to this at work even now!)

For Christmas Day, Israel went and bombed the last operating hospital in North Gaza. It persevered, so today Israel assaulted the building, all medical staff has been forced into concentration camps, and the hospital was set on fire. Israel's genocide can't have any survivors in Gaza.

Trying to model female pelvic anatomy. I learned ovaries are actually 'tucked in', not spread out like you see on anatomy illustrations.
