I'm not doing that great mentally lately, but the Twilight fandom and my beard growth help me hold it together.

i shit you not, i just looked this up: Twitch Plays Pokemon got the second badge in about 50 hours

J'organise un show de drag à thématique Twilight! C'est le 16 juin prochain à 19h30. On est un beau cast de kings, queens et creatures ✨ Très hâte de partager ma passion pour cette saga légendaire avec vous 💖 (Au cas où j'aurais des followers de Montréal) my.weezevent.com/twilight-en-...

Exhibiting a game at an experimental games expo in Montreal today! Thread of cool games to come

I've been slowly but surely growing a beard that I'm very proud of in the last 6 months 😊 I've reached that without going on T (using minoxidil only, an anti-balding treatment sold OTC that I use off-label). So happy to pursue succesfully my transition goals 🙌

There's a Playdate OS/SDK update out today, 2.7.2. (Get it in Settings > System > System Update). While it doesn't have a lot of features for players, it sets the stage for a big new part of Playdate: networking. That means developers can start writing things like—that's right—multiplayer games.

You’re all going to be so good at paradiddles by the time you three-star 100% of this game! #playdate

Pyramid Head!!! Only missing Sonic, and I'll have the top 3 most attractive male characters tattooed on my thigh.

Just released a new game! It's a short (5 minutes) autobiographical rpg about my experience with sterilization. Playable on mobile and desktop. It's nice to work again on games that are meaningful to me 💖 I hope it sheds some light on an unfair system! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #rpgmaker

Nooooo

So happy with my Playdate holder

Let's gooooo

Co star being transphobic 😔

Ready to go meet other cool game devs at GDC!! My fisherman cap + girly pop pink shirt is the peak of my gender expression 😌

Don't believe the haters, I do have a mustache. (I'm the haters)

Mark your calendars! Our 2nd Catalog Anniversary Sale is right around the corner 🎂👀 100+ games will be on sale starting at 10 AM on March 6th ✨

Thinking about buying Down the Oubliette or Sketch, Share, Solve on itch.io? Why not buy this bundle instead and get a ton of other games as well! #playdate itch.io/b/2863/calif...

It's surprising how quickly software/apps/games can be built today... then I look at what is required to distribute the app on the App Store, Steam, etc and it's such a disproportionately large task. Platform holders are snoozing.

Animated light cookies are fun to play with

In the before times software this erroneously bad would have never made it out of beta. Or would have been pulled and laughed out of existence. That companies like Google are still parading it front and centre is as ridiculous as it is appalling and damaging.

Fuck it, sharing this again for the CEOs in back

I've been so full of anxiety, rage, and grief these past two weeks. The moments of hope that shine are the times I've spent with friends, holding each other, and reaching out to check on one another. Communities are important, more now than ever 💜 hold onto each other 🫶

Feeling cute and cowboyie again

New gloves, cap and necklace.

Really gonna scroll past without sayin' yee-haw?

You know what would help indies? If they weren't losing 40% (30% plus returns, chargebacks and taxes) of their income on the primary PC storefront where they are in fact subsidizing AAA games which get sweetheart deals

dating: - hard work - emotionally draining - people say stupid things sometimes having a cool rock: - low maintenance - emotionally fulfilling - rocks don't talk or if they do it's in a language we don't understand

Basically the entirety of my "notifications" on Threads are "picked for you" posts that I would literally never want to see. All the failures of Facebook in a Twitter format. Sticking with bluesky.

remember when i went to my first GDC and someone asked what game dev role I ideally wanted to do, to which I replied "writing, doing narrative design" to which he replied "oh, so a job that'll be taken by AI in 5 years?" because I remember

He's fuzzy or what. (2 months on minoxidil, no T)

Working on a small autobiographical RPG Maker game about medical access to sterilization. It brings me a lot of joy to make games on topics that are important to me (and to not have to make game with no programming involved in my downtime).

Extremely rare "Forklift Certified Mario" pin, awarded to Nintendo of America warehouse employees in the late 1980s for passing certification to operate Class 1 forklifts.

Jesus Fucking Christ

Here's my hot take, I think *all* Star Wars movies are not very good.

Just watched the Star Wars Holiday Special for the first time, and I'm angry at all the hate it gets. It was good. Sure, very cheesy, and at times cringey, but that's what I expect from a holiday special.

Super Mario Sunshine is the only 3D Mario platformer in which Mario gets tired of hanging from a ledge. After 17 seconds of holding on, he will start shaking uncontrollably, and let go 3 seconds later. In the other platformers, he can hang from ledges indefinitely without issue.

'Tis the season. ❤️💚🏹
