I haven't touched my art supplies in years. Now in bed due to #MeCfs #Longcovid, I am picking up the pen again for my #gamedev project - a narrative bullet heaven about #chronicillness. This rainsuit protects mind and body against the melting precipitation of the Curselands - if intact..

Somehow I've managed to find stuff to do in #gamedev for 10 years without being able to code a single line. 😅 Now, this time has come to an end: I'm happily learning #godot. Dunno if that improves my hireability, but it feels good to finally DO stuff myself: starting a low-scope game about #me/cfs.

The mental load of having a chronic illness is equal to the physical burden. Anyone else relate to this? #longcovid #cfsme #chronicillness

After a hefty crash I've started workplace adaptations for my Orthostatic Intolerance. We raised the desk by 5cm so my fully reclinable chair fits under it. Taped my keyboard to an ikea lap table and put my mouse on a chair to the side. Now I can work again! (when I can) #longcovid #mecfs #gamedev

I'd really like to be more active around here, but it's so hard to find the brainspace with MeCfs/Long Covid. When everything is exhausting, thinking time is at a premium.

Alright. I'm not entirely sure I'm good at this whole social media thing, but new year, new steps to stumble over. I'll try and shout the (hopefully) marketable essence of my soul into the digital void. Hello folks of the internet! Let's hope this year is a better one. (am I doing this right?)

if i thought this site was going to moderate properly i'd subscribe to it happily & talk about the benefits of doing so to my million+ followers across youtube, twitter & twitch. as things are i'll be saying it isn't worth it. hearing similar things from my pals with big online followings

I was really looking forward to paid features on here. But given the recent decisions, I will not be paying for or subscribing to any bluesky product and I will encourage others not to do so either until they actually enforce their community guidelines. No moderation? No subscriptions.

Yep, seconding this. I still think this place is better than Twitter simply because they've got baseline protections against hate speech and banning/blocking features that work. Blocklists also help a lot too. But that's just utilitarian and I won't give money to a company that feels undeserving.

I loved going to #GameDev events, talking to devs showing their games. Often it'd evolve into an ad-hoc design analysis/consultancy session. I can't go now due to #ME/CFS, and I miss it. So if you want to go through a design or narrative issue, write me a DM. Lets set up a call. I'll help for free!

Hey folks, I'm Dan! I do game design and narrative design as well as game writing. I've been homebound due to Post-Covid and can't attend any events, so I'm trying to connect over here. Always happy to nerd out over games ant system/narrative implications!
