💚PAID CASTING CALL (1M, 1 F)🖤 Deadline: July 19, 2026 at 11:59 PM EDT Payment: $350 USD flat Looking for a Hispanic VA and a transmasc Black VA to cast for my short aro visual novel, AroDynamics! You can find character bios, lines, and submission details here! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Another micropatch this week! This one fixes a niche bug that could crash online games if every player had thorns and died at once. Also improves online stability in general.

Watched a lot of streams today and noticed some visual artifacts as a result of the Steam Deck compatibility changes I made. Today I released Micropatch 1.5.2 to fix some of those issues. Nothing major and will be compatible with older versions. steamcommunity.com/games/160342...

Got an email today about a broken text string in Doomsday, so I went ahead and pushed a teeny tiny patch to correct it. Won't affect Switch (that's handled by other people and a bigger process) but that's all the update is.

I forgot my charger so this ended up being a pretty short preview- but thanks to everyone who came along. Feeling very positive about what I have so far! I'm going to make an effort to come out to some more PIG Squad coworking nights this year too, so no worries if you missed it.

For those of you in the Portland area- I'll be at PIGCon this weekend! Assuming I can snag some space on the floor on Sunday, I've also got a few unannounced things to play with. Come over and say hi if you get the chance!

Dick Cheney was the last horcrux.

HAPPENING NOW: Oregon asks Judge Karin Immergut (a Trump appointee) to block the Trump admin's federalization of 200 Oregon National Guard troops to deploy to Portland. 🧵

My very first Physical Merch Drop is now LIVE!!! 🎉 I have lotsa fun stuff leftover from old zines and collaborations, as well as handmade clay trinkets!!! Hope they're cute enough to check out and share 💕 ko-fi.com/mattibeearts...

Somewhere out there is an indie dev who just delayed their game after Silksong's launch just to immediately get hit by Hades 2.

why the fuck would you shoot Charlie Kirk of all people

I was able to get my COVID vaccine yesterday, but they're now demanding my wife show up with a prescription today after "a message from headquarters." Schedule your shots ASAP.

Every morning some new bullshit.

You can get away with architecting kind of shitty when it comes to coding but you absolutely cannot when it comes to narrative writing and it always cooks me at the start of every project.

My game just dropped and 10% of all profits will go to the Godot Foundation! #godot #gamedev #indiegames store.steampowered.com/app/1712700/...

Withholding payouts and deleting games from user's libraries is simply unacceptable. Payment processors also look like they're in dire need of a political check on their influence.

Thanks everybody who messaged me! I'm going to start filtering through the portfolios I've received some time tomorrow. 💪

Yes. I'm the only person who works for free on my projects.

Do you want to draw evil little creatures? Looking for some freelancers for an upcoming project. Experience with Spine / puppet animation is a big plus. DM me your portfolio if interested.

I am stupid and had them closed. They are open now!

Games only grow when playtested but you have to do hundreds of hours of spreadsheet tasks first.

I have finally finished reviewing all 500 auditions to the voice roster! I don't have the time or resources for individual feedback, but figured I'd catalogue some of my thoughts here for those it might help.

If anyone wants to shitpost their way into an alpha build, I'm in sore need of placeholder bad programmer art and completely lacking in time to produce it.

Void Stranger is incredible but it's about as hard a sell as Chihayafuru.

Pretty sure they're just exploding rockets for the love of the game at this point.

Since I see a new surge of people looking for work: You should know that this exists!! 🩷 #gamejobs

If I wanted to be a bigot I'd demonstrate my superiority by knocking down a privileged class, like white senators, instead of going after the already downtrodden - which is loser mentality.

The year is 2028. Nuclear winter has shifted our food source to six eyed rat-deer. Everyone meets at Gregg's house to barter for electricity since he's the only one with a solar panel. I am still listening to auditions for my voice roster.

Valve recently evaluated Doomsday for Steam Deck compatibility! To make things a little easier, I did an extra text pass to increase the font size of some harder to read elements. Full Patch Notes below store.steampowered.com/news/app/160...

Doomsday's original design was heavily inspired by the Arkham Horror board game. Up until about 6 months before launch you would draw random start of turn cards to impact the board every turn. This is how I shared the feature with the game's UI artist.

Was at the ren faire yesterday! I think I kinda rock the beret.

I now have a creator page on Steam! You can follow it to get notified the next time I create a game, start an event (to, say, beta test a future project), or to lovingly gaze at the Doomsday Paradise screenshot list on demand. You can find it here. store.steampowered.com/dev/Lemonade...

The demo quality I got for the voice roster is waaaay higher than I was expecting and what I've seen historically. Through about 70/500. I do wish more VA's had creature demos! Videogames usually have lots of little guys that need voicing. I'll have to ask for that next time.

Getting bank robbers to ask permission before stealing people's life savings would kill the bank robbing industry.

Have loved my time with Expedition 33 but very mixed in the story. It's incredible in so many ways and absolutely missed the mark in so many others - it doesn't get much more indie in terms of structure for both good and bad.

My wife got both her middle split and her pull up this week, meaning she is now both genders

Alright, starting to actually assemble the voice roster! Thanks everyone who submitted! Probably about 500 submissions altogether- and it's really staggering how good some of you have got. This is not going to be an easy set of auditions.

Last call!
