With every day that passes I can feel myself relating more and more to Frodo at the end of Lord of the Rings. I got out of a relationship so abusive that it nearly cost me my life and nothing feels right anymore. You don't just go back to normal after that.

My reaction to seeing the world’s largest collection of dead fish in jars.

Kate is an amazing person and they really deserve to be healthy again. If you have some cash to spare please consider donating.

Quiet relaxing afternoon in town. Totally peaceful, everyone is chill, oddly nice day out. Random truck driving by: BRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr BEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR BBBRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr……………….

Maybe I should try dating again.

I wish I took more photos.

I wish more people would understand that empathy doesn’t mean giving useless advice or blaming the person for all of their problems.

I guess I’m depressed again? I miss being manic.

Sometimes I question why I ever bother with things.

Me lately.

I just found out that my yinzer uncle (an elected official) mostly writes in all caps.

There’s just something so calming about this.

3 years since my Dad died. 😔

Hoot Pursuit is done!!! Just going to spend the next few days testing and making sure there are no game breaking bugs. I did it. I made a game. :D

I don’t know if this game is going to be any good, but I certainly tried.

Foggy Bug Studios first release, a free seasonal mini-game called Hoot Pursuit, flies in on October 31st! It's a silly little creation but I can't wait to show it to everyone.

Me: My Pico-8 game is really shaping up. I'm proud of this. Brain: Remembers that Celeste exists on the Pico-8 Me: OH NO! My game sucks.

I made a game in 36 hours. Holy crap.

New video! Going on a side quest with Bert the Owl. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hX34...

Okay maybe I can do a game jam, at least with Pico-8.

I've been playing with Pico-8 a bit. I'm working on a mircogame called Hoot Pursuit and here's the main character, Bert the Owl.

What if I bought a cabin in the pacific northwest with a fiber line? I don't need much to live.

How long until I can actually write C# without accidently writing Rust? Oh and I write Ruby and Go at work. So many languages.

I’m not a fan of C# but I really like how basically every question I have about Unity has already been answered. I think Bevy has a lot of potential, but finding answers is like the wild West.

I'm coding in C#. Send help.

Had a dream I moved to Canada last night and given current political climates I have to say it’s pretty appealing.

*sigh* I think I need to learn Unity.

I sometimes wonder if looking at old pictures does more harm than good. I think I need to seriously wipe everything on my phone and iCloud account. Only forward.

Secure Boot Bypass Risk Threatens Nearly 200,000 Linux Framework Laptops https://it.slashdot.org/story/25/10/14/2123205/secure-boot-bypass-risk-threatens-nearly-200000-linux-framework-laptops?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed

Angry and wishing I could be some degree of "normal".

I really wanna try a game jam, but dang I’m nervous. I don’t really have any art skills (never developed them) so all I can really do is program.

I've implemented the most bare bones dialog system for my game and it only took 6 hours. I really wish UI work was easier in Bevy.

I should probably just take a few days and learn Godot already.

I love working with Bevy but I am questioning my own sanity after seeing how easy it is for people to make games with Godot. Rust is nice thought.

Game development makes you crazy.

Anyone have advice on staying motivated during long projects? I'm not tired of working on the game by any means but it is starting to feel like a slog. Maybe I should make another dev log video to show off what has been changed?

I’m starting to write music for my game and one of the songs is legit titled “The world is crumbling around me but I still love you”, just in case you were wondering if the silly raccoon game was going to contain any cognitive dissonance.

I'm considering streaming some of my game development sessions but I have no clue if anyone would find them interesting.

Building a really basic example level so I can start playtesting Bandit Boys!

Hey! My game studio has a website. foggybug.games

Do I know anyone who plays the ukulele who would be comfortable recording music for a video game? Just instrumental no vocals. Paid.
