LAST 24 HOURS TO SUPPORT THE CHARITY As we approach the last 24 hours of the Play for Peace: Games for Palestine Charity, I want to share a few thoughts, learnings and thanks for everything these past 10+ months. Charity bundle link: itch.io/b/2979/play-... Thread below⬇️

Update on these babies, from top to bottom: - Isabelle, she's growing one HUGE leaf on her right and I'm proud of her - Guoba, wanted to high-five me twice and dropped two paw leaves (propagation time!) - Cheryl, moisturised, in her element still pink - Salad, ate a fly ?? no remorse

Someone was trying to take a portrait of their two fave Chickens, and this happened.

i realise this looks like a lost journal entry, i am not getting lost in the mines of editing dialogue 💀

LET'S GOOOOOOO the charity is still open ✨✨ please stare at it! buy 1 free 1 type deal, you get games AND most importantly, support a good cause!

day 21 (now 22) of jam, we are about 3 sessions away from completion before I get thrown into the mines

Hey, hey! I am filled to the brim with whimsy to have provided a quick additional voice in Blinkomania, a DELIGHTFUL student film which just premiered today! Many thanks to Charlie Nightingale for having me on! This film rocks. ❤️ It’s also a MUSICAL? Go check if out! youtu.be/9_8aCpLqgew?...

The support for the Games for Palestine charity bundle has been immensely appreciated these past weeks. With 6 days to go, we are about $14k from reaching $100,000. Please RT and support the bundle itch.io/b/2979/play-...

I went to the supermarket today with my family and I went looking for more succulents (I bought the top two) And the supermarket decided to give out free succulents this week any time you purchase up to a certain amount of stuff (we bought groceries!) SO NOW I'M HOME WITH 4 SUCCULENTS????

Participating in my first game jam as a director and writer; Here’s one of our characters, Tristan, designed and drawn by @haikuhello.bsky.social! What a wonderful lad he is! Very excited to see him all prepped and in the final game!

"You should leave the States"— There's more nuance to what I'm about to say than can fit in 300 characters, but: Take a peek at the countries that'll deny residency if you 1) have an autism diagnosis, 2) receive govt benefits, and/or 3) are unable to meet work-hour reqs due to physical disability.

Both of the games I've solo-written this year started off as [gestures nebulously in vague energy of narrative]… Meanwhile, with "Undergrowth [2.0]," it was "I already know these characters and am prepared to tag-team heinous and unprecedented levels of emotional damage with @azufx.bsky.social" 😆

BLUE THANG

Don't you love it when you write a really specific item that you don't see everyday, and then literally seconds later the universe places the item you just finished writing about in your field of view? :') I didn't need to cry today man But that's my lovely 10th day of jam update 🐳🏴‍☠️

The oafs at @akuparagames.bsky.social are once again trying to ruin me by slashing the price of my award-winning game to a vulgarly low level. Protest this insanity by buying multiple copies and gifting them to your local representatives as evidence. store.steampowered.com/sale/akupara...

In addition to all the other Youtube fuckery, I just got an email saying "Auto-Dubbing" will now be on by default You can turn it off by going into Studio, Settings, Upload Defaults, Advanced Settings, and then turn it off It will then ask why you're turning it off. Don't hold back, let them know.

"Good friends buy their friends SKONG"🫂🫂🫂 Thank you SKONG friend @myaturii.bsky.social ✨🫶🏻 for tempting me with a game I can't play right now 😔 but will play religiously after Spooktober /j For now I'm dodging all the spoilers that come my way

I'm awake the night after making a choir pile with @jettbarker.bsky.social and I'm still very emotional about it I've missed being choir and I've missed singing with someone else or a group of people (soon)

Having writers that live 15 hours apart in timezones means @j-cuevas.com and I occasionally do what we call as the Google Docs séance (or J-éance) At work, can't join VC but you see your co-writer writing away? Say hi / Ask a question and words will start to appear magically and make sense.

3rd day of jam got me going like

We are just under 33 hours to the sales of our Play for Peace: Games for Palestine charity bundle! Nearly 400 games in one amazing bundle, with all proceeds going to Gaza relief through @unrwausa.bsky.social. Thank you for your support and RT. Link: itch.io/b/2979/play-...

Oh yes, because number stats are fun: We received a total 33 sea shanties from the singing auditions! Thank you shanty humans!!!

I'd like to make a post to say thank you to everyone who auditioned for Nova's Ship once again 🐳🏴‍☠️ I don't know when it'll happen, but I know I'll eventually make my own personal roster and hope I get the opportunity to work with more of y'all one day ✨🫳🏻🍪

Hey everyone, one of the games I voiced in got delisted for...child abuse? Never did like this crackdown on game content, this is just rubbing salt into the wound now. Give Kanau and Karamu and all Chattercap's games a go, they're really good!

I'm running for SAG-AFTRA national/local board positions to continue fighting for a community that has been disempowered for too long. Since 2018, I have served as a founding member of the dubbing steering committee, thru which union dubbing coverage has increased by over ONE THOUSAND PERCENT.

I am incredibly proud to announce my candidacy for President of my union. We are living in an extraordinary moment in history, and it would be the honor of a lifetime to help lead us through! Visit thecoalition2025.org to see our Mission Statement, our Platform, our bios, and more.

making games to feed my shitposting habit

My friends are enablers of my silly ideas, and I am of theirs. It's like an excuse to hangout to make stuff. 🫳🏻 And often times it's moments like these that snowball into the best, most fun experiences. It's something I cherish quite a lot as my creative outlet to combat my 9-5 🙂‍↕️🫂

1. It's not that difficult to find folks willing to collaborate on short-term creative projects when you're an artist with artist friends (& friends-of-friends!)—even in cases where no one's being paid But 2. Literally the only way your thing will get made is if you take the first steps to make it.

Boosting this again because Tina's one of a smattering of folks who've been working on improving industry accessibility—and these results are 1) anonymized and 2) passed along directly to folks working both at the studio level and labor org level!

@taylorsconfused.bsky.social sent me this and it truly does feel like this when I spawn in inboxes

I share choopy because it is my life duty

Background designer has been found! We are still looking for a UI designer!

Hyakuten Games has an unpaid #castingcall, looking for voices for masculine and non-binary characters - join us in a creepy vampire circus visual novel! Ends 22nd Aug! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I've made an updated and even more compact TL;DR on tricks for voicing children and why high-pitched != young. The ingredient that's missing here is fully clicking into character-brain, but given that I was already in Presentation Mode (i.e. "Don't 'speak in cursive,' man")…I reckon that's alright.

Today's out of context audio quotes: "I love that mine went full send into the weirdest parts of having 'vague Willy Wonka energy,' and yours just...talks like a regular human being."

Every day my joints are shocked and disgusted that I would use them for their intended purpose.

CASTING CALL (NU and Union folks welcome!) "Nova's Ship" is a super silly pirate-game (with a side of eldritch horror) on the Game Jam Waiver, which means ✨everyone can read for it!✨ Also, the dev team will look fairly familiar to folks familiar with the "Undergrowth"/"A Song For a Swig" cohort… 👀
