Please please please Valve send me the new VR headset for Christmas.

I'm excited about the Steam Cube! I don't currently have a next gen console in my living room, and it would be cool to have my PC library there. Also good to put pressure on Microsoft who have mismanaged Windows into shit.

I dont use generative Ai in my games because if I dont personally lick every part of my game how will people know its mine

We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA. Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

I updated the demo to version 0.2, with a lot of bug fixes! Go play it!

I still haven't bought Doom: Dark Ages because of how they fucked over the composer from the previous game, and how they botched the final DLC.

A question about text styling: Should coloured text include any punctuation right after it? Both options seem a tad messy to me.

uma tail is so perfect for virgin killer sweater i'm kinda blown away its not drawn more

The wide monitor is helpful when watching 3 Discord livestreams and taking notes.

I helped with this!!! Go check it out, it's good!!!

I gotta play around with the renderer options, as I think a lot of the performance problems are related to that.

The Matt's Hidden Cats demo is live on Itch. You can record the game, share it with others, and your progress will be compatible with the full version. (probably) kupo-games.itch.io/matts-hidden...

A bit bummed out that I'll miss the Animal Fest.

Interesting programming quirk: Anyone playing the Matt's Hidden Cats demo on Itch will be able to unlock Steam achievements. But only if they own the game on Steam, which is not possible unless you get a special key from me.

Last minute bug discovered: I click the BlueSky link, it takes me to Twitter.

First 10 levels of Matt's Hidden Cats dropping in a couple of hours for free.

My dog sits in dramatic poses to get my attention.

Added a new stat to the game.

@kupogames.bsky.social I Was Recently Browsing the Internet and I saw footage of EBF. Nostalgia hit me straight to the dome. im so happy you are still making games so i decide to make a small fanart of my Favorite character for Hidden cats! #art #fanart #epicbattlefantasy

It's like cops and robbers at my local park. Hordes of kids in balaclavas running from the polis while launching bootleg fireworks. Good show.

It's very satisfying how quickly you can put together an appealing store page on Itch.

Apparently on Steam I can only notify wishlisters about a demo one time, when it first drops. I was gonna publish a Matt's Hidden Cats demo in English only, and update it with the other languages later, but I guess I'll do that on Itch or Newgrounds instead.

Mamdani: "New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants, and as of tonight, led by an immigrant."

Lol, good luck with that.

I'm at the "if this unimportant feature doesn't work it's getting cut" stage of development and it's quite nice.

I put the radio on for her so she can’t hear the fireworks.

Btw, nothing bad happened when I ignored Google's deadline. I think it just means that Android 16 users can't download my app, but that's like 1% of users. Google just loves to waste my time.

Uploaded a new version of EBF5 to Google Play and it seems to tick all of the boxes that Google requires. But I haven't actually ran it yet to see if it works at all. Wish me luck.

Here's what the daily downloads on the Play Store look like for EBF5. There is zero correlation to any app updates or anything I do or any special occasions. It's completely random.

Google forcing me to update my apps, but they redesigned the dashboard and hid the "upload new version" button 3 clicks deep. I will never criticise my own UI design ever again.

Didn't really have a choice this year.

Hey, my ratings on the Play Store are still pretty good. Maybe Google should be featuring these more instead of shovelware.

When I made EBF5, there was no issue with having a folder named "text" and a file named "Text.as" in the source folder. Years pass, and the compiler can't tell which is which. I probably wrote down a note about how to deal with this, but I can't find it. :/

145 trick-or-treaters this year.

Watch Weapons and Bring Her Back this Halloween.

I made art from regular household items!

This year’s pumpkins.

A halloween treat... Episode VII ARS DORATHIA #pixelart #rdein_dev

It’s a good thing my brother gives me some Elden Ring tips because I don't read item descriptions and I kill a lot of NPCs. I just hit things with a big sword but that seems to be working okay.

I get the feeling that Elden Ring has a lot of replay value if you wanna try out different character builds, BUT it's so long and grindy that I'll never have time for that. And for that reason I think it should offer options to cut down the grind like Valheim does.

I guess the one case where this was worth it was the Valve Index. PC VR is clunky but I love that thing.

Whenever I buy higher-end electronics I feel like a beta tester for features that will be much cheaper and more polished in the next few years. I need to stop sabotaging myself.

When a platform asks me to send them a signed invoice for an expected payment I wonder what decade this is.

Is it classist to make fun of people with bad home decorating taste? (I hate every class)

My dad asked if he can play “Snake” on his phone, and I wanted to say “yeah obviously” but finding a version that isn’t shit is probably quite a chore.
