For those who were curious about how Fay looks in #ReynardVN: Here's both Fay and Carl!! Their main game is called #MysticCipher; which is both a spin off to #KillerTrait and its own game series. Art by @mustacheskulls.bsky.social

Genuinely powerful words to live by.

Art motivation 💪

"i just don't like—" ok then block and mute "it's harmful—" censorship is more harmful to actual victims than pixels on a screen "fiction affects—" literally nothing unless you don't have a brain that's able to make distinctions "but i—" no, shut up, go away, shoo

The story arc with Lilia and Silver in Book 7 is making me sob like a freaking baby. IT'S PEAK. Gosh, it's been a WHILE since I liked a character so much.

Me: Writing is so fun!! Also me:

I don't think I can this year cause I'm working on Killer Trait, but next year I really want to participate in Yuri Jam 🌈🏳️‍🌈

In Candied Hearts and its demo, you'll be exploring a room frozen in time: Lakritz' childhood room. #CandiedHearts

Here's how you can speed up your game releases without using AI: - make task lists - learn to prioritise - descope - build discipline habits - remove distractions - take breaks - sleep better for more brainpower - improve your health - take medication (if applicable) - get a faster PC + more

burger dog, dog that’s a burger

I think its important to note that this isnt just another AI scumbag. This guy is making hundreds of thousands of dollars doing this shit. I personally saw him making a $500+ sale at Dragon Con. Please contact any convention you see him at and report him.

sorryyyy if we used to talk but now we don't really talk i just have fluctuating social energy and am terrible at starting conversations i promise i still think you're cool!!

Doce Fim has new horizontal promo art! 🫶 This artwork highlights the romantic and platonic love routes - Lion is romantic, Rikka is platonic. 💝See it in action and wishlist the game: s.team/a/3808270 Art by OpheliasAria on Vgen #VNDev #indiedev #gamedev

One of the reasons you want game writers in game writing positions over screenwriters is that a good writer for games also knows other games (what worked, what didn’t, what not to inadvertently copy). We already have enough institutional knowledge loss without hiring people outside the institute.

I finally wrote something. It wasn't much but it was something. I'll try my best to write some more tomorrow too.

Your reminder that 99.99% of the artists you interact with are sustained by a second job or spouse/family, and followers do not actually translate directly to dollars

For those curious about the ages of my characters in the Cedariaverse: - Aspen: 30 - Crowe: 32 - Fawna: 33 - Oz: 29 - Arthur: 35 - Aslan: 32 - Carl: wouldn't you like to know~ - Fay: 35 - Aster: 16/17 - Pommy: 32 - Paris: 30 - Wren: 30 - Kanaria: 27 - Galvin: 27 - Lonan: 28 - Invar: thousands

If you have an 18+ Patreon, I stongly, *strongly* recommend you sit down and read this article. It's the most comprehensive look into Patreon's moderation practices in recent memory. The articles linked in this one are also worth reading.

Said this on the other app but we rly need to normalize that growing up = becoming a person with the money to afford childhood interests. The idea that you have to suddenly stop caring about cute or joyful things when you turn 18 is the reason so many ppl are so fucking miserable for 60 years after

I think I have a thing for making OCs with height differences and sort of "opposite" vibes. Like... - Aspen (short; anxious) VS Crowe (tallish; warm) - Fawna (short; cheerful) VS Oz (tallish; short temper) - Fay (short; resting b face, serious) VS Carl (very tall; smiley & mischievous)

Tfw I realize that most of my characters are either ace, bi or both lmao

Happy Bi Month to all my fellow biromantics and all bisexuals 🥰💖

September is Bi Visibility Month, so perceiving me may be easier, as all bisexuals have disadvantage on stealth rolls until Halloween 1st.

Offer received and accepted, funemployment ends homies. I release my employment jelly to the wild now, thank you friend.

Reminder: if you are worried about AI replacing you as an artist: don’t use AI voices, If you don’t want composing to be handed over to AI: don’t use it to write text. You get the idea. If you value your job: protect others jobs too.

IT'S BACK

Can you help my queer game about the different forms of love reach 200 wishlists? 🥹👉👈 It has both platonic and romantic love routes and an asexual character! I want to make a game about how impactful and important friendships can be and that romance isn't everything! #VNDev #queer #asexual

Is this what it means to be 30+? 🫠 BACK, PLEASE, STOP HURTING

As a developer that has been fairly public: we're not equipped to deal with the deluge of abuse and hate that comes our way - and I'm an indie, I'm literally responsible for my own choices. Can't imagine having to stand in that torrent for choices the stakeholders forced despite my objections.

I'm really nervous about it but I managed to pull up the courage to participate in a singing event/presentation that my singing teacher will hold for me and her other students in a few months 💗 I hope I manage to sing well 🤞

#CriminallyYoursVN Full Release Out NOW! Our Yandere superhero themed enemies to lovers romance visual novel is now fully out! 💥 Fully voice-acted, 2 routes, and many choices!👁️ There has never been a better time to play‼️ meant-to-bee-studios.itch.io/criminally-y...

How strange it is to be anything at all 🐛 Pssst.. prints of all my new comics available on my website heyheymomo.com 🖼️

I love me some Japanese fiction but, man, whenever there's fanservice with underaged girls I just wanna rip my eyes out. I was reading a murder mystery VN, why is the middle aged detective suddenly trying to touch a girl's boob??? I HATE IT HERE

No, authors aren't burnt out because "writing without AI is slow" We're burnt out because we're paid dirt so we need day jobs to survive

Crafty weekend- embroidered a little guy on some jeans

Does anyone else start conjuring up OC / ship situations in their brains before getting ready to sleep. Like I need to formulate good things to think about to ease me into dreamland, gotta have that self indulgent film playing in my brain

I could keep going

I have extended the time period for my #VGen experimental commissions! So if you wanted to get something different, this could be for you ;) I also have a cute YCH that will be here for some time! vgen.co/Floramisu (Experimental and YCH examples in the images)

This is a GREAT idea! I've finished doing this myself on a public G00gle Doc. I don't want to risk it 'cause a lot of games that don't even have NSFW content have been deindexed.
