I'm back here to say due to personal reasons I'm going to be gone from social media until around the 20th. Maybe a little before or a little after. If you need to reach me for anything time critical please email me at:

Still working on stuff. I've got some changing tombstones that'll swap around as you move areas and some other...thing? Sorry it's gonna be a while before a new game but I'm still trying to get my life together. Thanks for sticking with me all this time. See you next week.

The gayming pride parade is looking for 10 games to show off during their festival. You can sign up here:
gaymingfoundation.org/prideatsgf/
It's probably going to be fiercely competitive for slots so euugghhh good luck. If you can get in it's worth it as a long shot deal.

I don't have any really cool updates I can show off gamedev-wise. In neat news I got to present the nuovo award for gdc via the internet. I feel like that's kind of a dream thing to get to do. See you all next week.

Had nightmares so I'm up. For this week I've been working towards getting basic character designs in game and combat working. Didn't finish in time to have something worth showing but I'm still trying. See you next week.

Side by side character design sheet. I'll be using this for the final template of the main character. What palette do you like best?

Hey everyone, no dramatic updates this week. I was behind with visiting grandparents and some stuff I needed to take care of in the background. I'm hoping to be back to regular updates next week.

Whelp, time to post another character design set to see reactions. If you can let me know your thoughts and also what you see in the picture. I'm hoping it's understandable at a glance but I might have to go back and try again if it isnt.

What are your thoughts on these two character designs? For Ideal Essie does she approximate the idea of: "an avatar you make in a video game" Please let me know your thoughts. I genuinely need your input as a developer.

Hey Holidays messed up working on my game. After playtests some people liked the game but overwhelming response was negative. I'm trying to get a solid editor to help since I've just gone off narrative course. For this week here are some prototype shots.

Once a week check-in: I got better. Question: Does anyone know any good academic texts by practicing game developers on how to design a good combat loop or kinetic game? I'm currently at the coding stage and it would help to have someone's shoulders to stand on.

Once a week post. I've gotta figure out how to use the player feedback on the title since every social network liked a different one. I've started storyboarding the second draft script and I'd say I'm about 50% through the rewrite. That might change after I have testers if it crashes and burns.

I got feedback on my game's alpha this week from a few playtesters. The bones of the game are good but there are flaws that I need to work on. It's a scary place to be as a developer. I don't want to spend forever rewriting or rush and undermine what could've been good. See you next week!

I know a lot of itch devs follow me. Please consider adding your games here. Every console essentially can become an offline archive to help keep your work alive in the event something like itch gets censored again.

I'm alive. It's been another week. I have a script coming together from a lot of other fragments of dead scripts. I'm nervous about talking about any games since so far whenever I talk about a game it falls apart in my hands and I feel like I let people down. Anyways I'll be back next week.

Hi everyone, last night after a ton of work the HFTGOOM Bonus pack released in Japanese. It would mean the world to me if you would consider signal boosting it here:

It would mean a lot to me for the translation to find players.

Sorry for lack of communication. I am going to be moving out of Florida in October. Arrangements for that ate a lot of time. I couldn't have done it without the support I got from everyone. Please excuse me being distracted these next few weeks until the move is finished.

He Fucked The Girl Out of Me has been re-indexed. I am sorry about the delays. Switching over the remaining keys and building an additional page took time. I put a link to the bonus pack on the HFTGOOM main page with large text which felt a gross but x_x
