Is substack worth joining? What do people like about it? What do you do with it? Oh my god I’m old.

Been working on a VTT app for a bit. Stuff like Foundry, Roll20, etc are all awesome but I wanted something dedicated to local play where I could control fog of war & other bits on a laptop and have it represented on a tv that we have on the table that the players interact with. #dnd #ttrpg #vtt

There was a set of DirectX plugins in the late 90s/early 00s called HyperPrism DX that I loved. Arboretum Systems sadly disappeared years ago, so they have been lost to time. I've spent the last few months trying to recreate them as VST3 plugs. Check it: github.com/themightyzq/... #audioplugins #vst

Hey everybody! The Descent is still an excellent horror movie! Also, I will always think of the 90s game when I think of the title of that movie and remember that it made me want to barf!

Been puttering around with a nerdy project during the evenings this past week: Converting maps generated with donjon into Doom levels. I got the idea when I saw a utility called PNG2WAD & figured JSON data would be more reliable than images. Plus, I can get info like doors and stuff! #doom #gamedev

Man. The OoBE for Switch 2 is ROUGH. Picked this thing up two hours ago and just now getting Mario Kart World downloading…which looks like is going to be a lengthy download.

An older video, but new to me. Really interesting how this game theory is found in so many aspects of life, politics, nature, etc: youtu.be/mScpHTIi-kM?...

Freedom isn't free, but this week it's 33% off! Eye of the Commando is on sale during Steam's Third Person Shooter Fest, all week! "Contra, but RPG?" Sure! Etrian Odyssey with a minigun? Why not? store.steampowered.com/app/3016480/... #indiedev #gamedev #godot

With Static Mode and the HDR Toolbar, HDR now adapts to your workflow, supporting classic narrative and traditional mixing while retaining dynamic power. Check out the video for more information, youtu.be/SjTWqBoEObQ or visit the blog for some examples on how this works sweej.tech/blog/2025-hd...

LinkedIn is a silly place.

Sammiches says HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYBODY and HOW DID I GET INTO THE GARDEN. #dog #hound #despiteallmyrageimstilljustadoginacage

Oh shit I must be working on something evil. #sounddesign #gameaudio #evil #666

Inappropriate…ly delicious.

My wife & I, as we're finishing up @criticalrole.bsky.social's Campaign 2: The Mighty Nein: "Oh man, that was awesome! Let's get caught up on some other TV shows, movies, and stuff!" ... *Starts Exandria Unlimited*

btw for those interested there is an open-source project to turn a raspberry-pi into a MT-32 github.com/dwhinham/...

Remember that piano I recorded in a church a while back? Well, I created a DecentSampler instrument out of it, and it's available for free on DecentSamples! Check it out: www.decentsamples.com/product/brok... Thanks, @dhilowitz.bsky.social ! #samplelibrary #piano #samples #decentsampler

Look at this beauty. An old SuperScope (Marantz) 8-track cartridge recorder...Now I need to find some blank 8-tracks! #recording #sounddesign #samplelibrary #retrogear #8track #audio

Started at Raven in 2000. Worked at id. Spent 7 years at Xbox HQ. Moved to the UK for Playground. My career’s been tied to Microsoft at every turn. Seeing these layoffs is heartbreaking. If I can help, please reach out. Much love. #Microsoft #Xbox #GameDev #layoffs

Been messing with Decent Sampler the past few days—built a custom instrument from my recordings of a busted piano in an old church. Fun diving into features and designing the UI. Always love giving broken sounds new life. #DecentSampler #sounddesign @dhilowitz.bsky.social

This absolute legend at the Vasa Museum.

I’m on a plane to Sweden, drinking wine, and watching Evil Dead Rise. I hope all of the youngsters are watching my screen right now.

Been running my new D&D campaign for a few weeks now. Running 5.5e and having a tough time with the D&D Beyond search function and the app user interface. Does anyone have any digital alternatives they'd recommend or just use the physical books? #DnDBeyond #DungeonMaster #DnD

So proud of my mom. She took a cross-country road trip to visit me in Seattle after my dad died. On the way, she had an idea for a short story. She is not a writer but she plugged away on it over the years and she released it today on Amazon! #mom #newwriter #newbook #books #kindle a.co/d/32rjQQV

After seven years of service, it’s time for this old girl to rest. 🫡

Today, I grabbed an old Calvin and Hobbes anthology because I needed to record some nice page-turn sounds...Then I just ended up reading Calvin and Hobbes for a while.

Finally landed on profile settings on my 3d printer that seem to be consistently working for miniatures. Designed using @eldritchfoundry.bsky.social! #3dprinting #dnd #miniatures #eldritchfoundry
