i gave a talk about my favorite part about making despelote at gdc and they made it free to watch! it was a really nice opportunity to gather all my thoughts and put into words this idea that games can actually be really great at capturing the world. watch it here! gdcvault.com/play/1035816...

release within the next few weeks

New devlog~ we also talk about prepping for and the contents of the event we recently co-hosted, Dissonance: "Unrest" youtu.be/Ubpm0JezK7Q?...

Had a chance to play this and many other great games at Dissonance 不穏 last weekend. Visual metaphor & memoir in bitsy form. Also so interesting to recreate a personal game from many years ago with a stronger technical, creative skillset along with a recontextualized life perspective. Remake/Re-view

Thank you to all the visitors, friends and participants who came to Dissonance: Unrest. Really appreciated the sense of a small and quiet community forming around strange / wonderful games in Tokyo. It was a great event and a pleasure to co-organize as .iris with futurala!

I’m so grateful to @thisisdotiris.bsky.social and @futurala.bsky.social for believing in my game and inviting me to be part of this 🙏🏻 It was such a tightly curated display of weird and unsettling games

「人間はなぜ「不穏」を恐れながらも、「不穏」に惹かれるのか？ 不穏なゲームをプレイして、その答えを探してください。」 TAMAインディゲーム展覧会Dissonance 6月20日21日（土日）開催 パルテノン多摩 @futurala.bsky.social @thisisdotiris.bsky.social dissonance.tokyo

Thrilled to announce that "A Passing in the Night" will be published by PLAYISM!

making a game about when you feel like your lived reality is so much like a nightmare that living in a literal nightmare world would almost make you feel better about it #screenshotsaturday #スーパーゲ制デー

testing on a low-end setup #gamedev

It's been a challenge trying to balance the walking pace & the mood of APITN. We've settled for now on adding 3 modes: normal / hyperfocus / zoneout, to keep things slower but vibey/music-oriented #gamedev #ue5 #walkingsimulator #screenshotsaturday

Forgot to announce here that we are showing "A Passing in the Night" at "Dissonance: Unrest" in June with some very cool & weird games (we're co-organizing the event as well!) DATES 6/20~21 LOCATION Parthenon Tama, Tokyo PRE-SALE TICKET ¥300 WEBSITE dissonance.tokyo
