A bartender at some random izakaya in Tokyo recognized me as the guy who made JETRUNNER. I'm pretty sure the odds of that are close to zero, so what the hell.

I have been in Japan for less than a week and I've already developed a para-social relationship with a convenience store brand.

Went to a pig cafe in Japan. Got my balls crushed.

Chocolate eggs lose a lot of their authenticity by having no shell to peel.

The #AGDQ2026 run of JETRUNNER was nuts. I can't believe how consistent @xyphles.bsky.social is. What a monster. Doing dev commentary on a GDQ run was on my bucket list. I loved every second of it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=88O4...

I've never really jived that well with build-slop, but for some reason the Octopath series just does it for me. I think it's something about the boost system that just makes it super easy to see a path towards a broken build that beats any fight in four turns, and breaking games is just fun.

Just beat Ghost Trick. Very fun to play some proper reveal-slop again. It really scratches that Ace Attorney itch. Would recommend.

It's almost time for #AGDQ2026 and I know which run I'm looking forward to the most. Being asked to do dev commentary is such an honor. I watch GDQ every year. Getting to be part of the show is a dream come true. gamesdonequick.com/schedule/62#...

Growing up is learning that so many game design decisions that made me go "Smh, I can do better" when I was young, were done the way it was done for very good reasons, and that most of the improvements kid me thought he had would have been very bad. Very bad indeed.

My choir had a concert on Saturday and I'm just so freaking proud of our performance of Go the Distance from Hercules. (Yes that is me there in the middle, being very loud, making it near impossible to hear any of the five other second tenors. Whoops!) www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FbD...

Almost shit my pants reading the games list for the next Games Done Quick. That's my boy! That's my JETRUNNER! Xyphles (Who is running the game) is an awesome speedrunner as well. I'm so excited for this. gamesdonequick.com/games

Shoutout to Silksong for scaring off every other game that was going to release this week, letting us hangout on the front page of Steam's Popular Upcoming all week. I take back everything I said. @teamcherry.bsky.social

The Knightling has so much going for it. So many fun mechanics, so much whimsy and joy. It has most of the ingredients needed to be one of those rare games I just plain love. It's also littered with very annoying design decisions that I'm trying my best to stomach, but it's really getting to me.

I finally found a font where the number 2 looks super sick and I'm so stoked.

What's your bigger "Monkey's Paw" moment? This is mine. Never asking for a game to please release soon ever again.

Announcing your release date this close to launch is just plain rude.

Now that I've gotten every banana and fossile in Donkey Kong Bananza I'm finally qualified to review it. Game's fun. Smashing thing is fun. I hope I never see these smahing mechanics ever again. Digging around looking for Bananas is just not as fun as searching for Moons in Odyssey.

Tomorrow is a big day. It's one month until launch, and the end of summer vaccation. In other words: Hell is about to break loose. Time to finish the video game. See you all on the 4. of September.

It feels really nice to be drawing again. It's a real shame I can only really make time for it when a game is in pre-production.

Finally my new drawing tablet arrived after Adobe rendered my old drawing laptop useless by removing DX11 support. Time to start some pre-production on an unannounced title 👀

This is what they took from us

It was about time someone at the bigger publications VICEnd up and wrote about our game. I'll be here all night. www.vice.com/en/article/j...

Donkey Kong Bananza is sick, but you have to much power to allow any challange to have identity, and the world is too mallable to allow any moment to stand out. That said I do enjoy punching the world.

I just had a terribly scary nightmare that we're launching JETRUNNER in just 6 week. Haha. Oh we just announced that in our newest trailer, now did we? Oh... Oh no... JETRUNNER launches September 4. Play the demo now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MxQ...

We've just finished turning JETRUNNER's most boring environment into a work of art. The third world in JETRUNNER spans ten floors of a giant skyscraper. You climb higher with every level. Sick concept, but the levels themselves were just white pillars resting in water. Solution? Parks everywhere.

You know what they say about hiring professionals to do your capsule art? Yeah, people are not joking, it's just a good idea. Way better than just tossing stuff we have in engine together and hoping for the best.

The wishlist chasing meta is tiresome, I feel like a streamer begging for twitch primes. Smash that wishlist button famsquad!

I'm so good at taking vacations I get it all done in the evening, so I can work more during the day.

The amount of reviews we have on the JETRUNNER demo with like 50+ hours of playtime blows my mind. The demo is just 10% of the game!

There's an entirely community driven $600 dollar bounty on running JETRUNNER and this is what people have to say about it. JETRUNNER is better than money.

How is everyone's pride month going? It's going well, I hope. Me personally, well I just accidentally committed a hate crime. Whoops!

The really fun, indie game #Jetrunner was teased at the Best Indie Games Summer Showcase, where I have joined the voice cast! youtu.be/JWhrCpaEmGo?...

Almost the entire Neon White community seems to have migrated over to JETRUNNER this last week. I've spent almost ever waking second since our announcement watching streams of the game and talking to runners. The reception has been unbelievable. It all started with this: youtu.be/CV9feICJunE?...

It's my baby. My precious JETRUNNER. Finally formally announced to the world.

Dark DOOM was good, but way too long. Got very sick of it by the end. Surprised I liked parrying in an FPS as much as I did though. Saw it in the trailers and thought it would be big ass.

Dear diary, today I caught a plot hole mid recording session and had to rewrite a scene with the speed of Hermes to not waste too much valuable recording time.

Had a conversation with some peers about healthy ways to deal with frustration and stress. Tons of examples came up: Meditating, taking it out through martial arts, etc. I didn't have the heart to tell them I take it out on my friends by reviving the "every pokemon vs one billion lions" debate.

Replayed Journey the other day. First time in 10 years. But this time, I journeyed alone. My first playthrough was defined by comradery, and I thought the game would be naked without it. But when "alone" it becomes a new story about how you're never truly alone, because we are one with the world.

Every pro Fahrenheit argument ever is single handedly torn to shreds by the simple convenience of seeing a minus in front of a number and instantly knowing you're about to spend the day in the ice dimension.

It's finally official! Curveball is going to publish our upcoming video game JETRUNNER. Launch is approaching fast and I'm about equal parts scared shitless, and excited beyond belief.

I love eating cream cheese with crackers. It's like eating cheese with a spoon, except you get to eat the spoon. We'd be eating soup the same way if we weren't massive cowards.

Just learned I've been spelling one of JETRUNNER's main characters name wrong for eight months now. Didn't realize until someone on the cast kept pronouncing it wrong and I had to find out what was up. Turns out I'm the goober.

I'm not going to name any names, but I'm currently playing a game that rounds its FPS limiter to the nearest 5, and I want you to know, that if you do this, it becomes impossible to set it to 144 FPS, which is ideal for 144Hz monitors.

Combat encounters in Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley be like

I've never baked cheesecake before, and today I learned the hard way that that apprantly isn't something you can just do two hours before your guests arrive. I didn't know making jello would be like that, ok?

"Oliver, what are you doing at choir practice? Didn't you have your tonsils removed yesterday? Can you even talk? How high are you right now?" Gee, god forbid a guy has hobbies...
