Congratulations to everyone who made Top 8 at Wombat Wednesday: The Fundraiser for Feeding America's P+ bracket! We raised $1,548 in total, meaning that your contributions will turn into about 15,480 meals! Let us keep being joyful, and keep fighting.

JohnLee Cooper joined us at ThinkyCon to talk about making two puzzle games without an undo button! @johnleeerg.bsky.social

Got tired of reading the news and getting mad. Feeding America backs 200+ food banks around the country and I've seeded with $500 for now. I'll match up to another $500 myself. Pass the hat, RTs graciously appreciated, etc.

I'm givin a lil talk at "ThinkyCon 2025" tommorow at 5 PM EST! about Trail Mix and Life in Captivity, and how there's no undo/rewind in either of them and how that effects the design and response to each game. Tune in! Doing it live so who knows what could happen! Very Nervous!

I've been putting off posting about it because I've been a little nervous- but ThinkyCon starts tomorrow! And I'll be talking at it on Thursday! Last year was really interesting, so I hope people will find my stuff useful.

Trump just said nothing will threaten the “ceasefire” in Gaza, but what Ceasefire? I’m in Gaza — bombs have been falling for 8+ hours straight now. 17 children killed already. Don’t believe the lies. Pls share and raise your voice for Gaza.

Israel is still occupying over 50% of the Gaza Strip, and I'm still hearing the sounds of artillery bombs from time to time. Drones are still buzzing overhead. The genocide hasn't stopped yet! Keep raising our voices.🇵🇸

a weird tennis club we stumbled on hidden behind some houses. was strangely the second tennis club we saw on the walk. how many tennis clubs are hiding just around the corner?

What ceasefire?

Some more art. still making games but it takes too long and nothing i can post. this here is acrylic marker and pen.

NEW: Since October 2023, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit has released dozens of 3D animations illustrating alleged Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iranian sites The style is now unmistakable: satellite zoom-ins, black & white wireframes, and red-textured houses - a new visual language of war

Losing my mind and what look like video game assets but instead were used to justify war crimes and genocide in the real world

Greta Thunberg has been detained in an Israeli cell infested with bedbugs and supplied with insufficient food and water, according to activists: “They dragged little Greta by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag.”

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

Some more acrylic marker stuff. Really fun to blend the colors when wet and also overlay when dry.

A combination of train views and Xian skies. In Xian (and any other major city ofc) theres too much light pollution to see stars, but every night people fly kites with rainbow LEDs on them, creating their own constellations. I had a hard time capturing it in photos or paint but it was so cool

Inside the old city walls of Xian. Theres a solid block of touristy bars and restaurants all lit up vibrantly. But right around the corner it's residential and there aren't even streetlights, just the dark wall on one side and silhouetted roofs n trees on the other. this one is direct from a photo.

Some more imaginary china views, inspired loosely by shanghai and the views from our 10 hours of train ride landscape between shanghai, beijing, and xian watercolor, marker, pen, pencil crayon. I particularly like the mix of orthographic and perspective in the last, gonna explore that more sometime

Some very quick sketches of longtangs in shanghai. we got to stay in a very cute room on a 3rd floor deep in a maze of alleys in the french concession. pen and pencil crayon

I wrote about my photography game shenanigans (with a sample for the cover page!)

paradise-collab.itch.io/paradise-dig... check out the new paradise zine! In it I write about my dream of making a Liquid Videogame, and all the things that might entail.

Something i was rly obsessed with in China was the little ecosystems that formed underneath air conditioner drips. Old temples seemed to recognize this drip-world by having beautifully carved natural iconography disguising rain runoff things. pen and watercolor, pen/cil and color pencil respectively

like these!

If any musicians on here would like to help a young singer from Gaza ❤️ Genocide is not just a murder of a people but also the murder of their culture and Gaza has lost dozens of artists and musicians.

Young refuseniks burn their IOF draft papers in the middle of Tel Aviv They refuse to serve in the Israeli Occupation Forces, and are willing to go to military jail for their position. The new generation of refuseniks is supported by the older, many of them spent months in jail already
