i need people to understand "death of the author" means the author can't dictate what you take away from the text, not that you're not complicit in what they do with the profit they make from you buying it in the first place

Been playing Chrono Trigger recently and I love all the little interactions and optional dialogues, except for how I couldn't find the missing cat during the Millennial Fair and then the game chewed me out for it during the court trial It's not MY fault I couldn't find the little fucker!

Launch.

Let this be a warning to you all: nobody steals my charts and gets to be Prime Minister of Canada

"The reason I am calling is that your SIM card is going to blow up after 24 hours" Come on, if you're gonna scam call me, at least TRY and make it sound believable. "My SIM card is gonna blow up"?! Fuck outta here 🤣

Adding my personal Discord server to the Prism Warriors Steam page was a mistake because now every week or two I get DMs from sketchy randos asking if I need marketing help Maybe, but not from you, who frankly I don't trust as far as I could throw

I forget sometimes just how much grunt the Master System and Game Gear have, goddamn Once I finish Prism Warriors and Color Critters (and maybe a secret third thing) I'd really like to take a crack at homebrew

All of these spoke to me, deeply.

If my £10 wireless earbuds come with a card promising an £80 Amazon gift card if I post a five-star review and send them a screenshot of it, that's a worrying sign wrt the earbuds' quality, right?

I have spontaneously decided to register Prism Warriors for the Steam Next Fest in June. Should help get some more eyeballs on it. I already made a single-stage demo early in development, and I can just remake it to reflect where the game is now.

Post your comfort album

Trans Lifeline is a good place to direct resources if you’re looking to help here fuck everyone involved with this decision

Had a big glut of followers today that's taken me up to 300! I'm working on a bullet hell game in #tic80 starring magical girls! Please wishlist it on Steam even if that doesn't sound fun to you, I crave that algorithmic magic: store.steampowered.com/app/3514400/...

He is gonna accidentally kill the pope or set fire to the sistine chapel or something

Fun fact: Prism Indigo's mechanic of tying your score multiplier to your Burst Gauge is actually derived from a game I developed for my university course back in 2016 As you can see, I hadn't quite settled on the 8-bit aesthetic yet even though I was already leaning towards shmups

seems as good an opportunity as any to dump some of my favorite 4chan posts

found this in my notes, good advice for aspiring devs

Can't believe they added the 2006 piss filter to a game from 2006 that didn't originally have the piss filter

I didn't know you could type into the #TIC80 console while the boot-up sequence was still in progress, guess I was a little quick on the draw there Anyway, I have the day off work and have decided to set it aside to do some more work on Prism Warriors

How it started / how it's going

Can I make a suggestion for his wake without upsetting anyone

I love how Dragon Quest's sense of humor seeps into its design, laughed out loud at this "ooh a piecea candy" map with a comically long sequence of chests leading into a Mimic nest
