I WANNA STOP COUGHING

The Darkest. Timeline.

socksmakepeoplesexy.itch.io/tessas-rpg-n... Another touch-up update patch for Tessa's RPG Nightmare.

Perfectly breaded and seasoned fish is orgasmic.

It’s been a minute since I drew her… #slayers

www.twitch.tv/paunchosmith @paunchosmith.bsky.social is streaming Tessa's RPG Nightmare!

I think I'm just gonna take another week and dive back into gamedev and not pay attention to the world again. This isn't good for my head.

We'll be going live with Polly RPG tonight at around 8:00 PM. Should be a cozy time.

I don't wanna jump to conclusions, but after 6 years of nothing, I think I may have finally contacted a light case of the COVID. Gonna give it a bit before a test, but I do know someone that talked to me recently was near the end of it, but she wasn't 100% over it.

Three years. Still miss you every day.

Will never tire (read: will always tire) of people who only engage with big budget AAA games saying "Games just aren't [adjective] any more."

Reeeeaaaal tired, man.

GOD man. I am so happy with Tessa's RPG Nightmare. I wanna play more Cookie Cutter RM2k3 jams! This event has been so crazy good. So many awesome games, so many new creators. I'm blown away by how much creativity is on display here. itch.io/jam/cookie-c...

socksmakepeoplesexy.net/games/tessas... The PollySoft page and post-mortem for Tessa's RPG Nightmare is now up. If you've not played the game yet, I wouldn't read this as it does contain some spoilery information about the game.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUq0... It's a jam.

socksmakepeoplesexy.itch.io/tessas-rpg-n... Updated Tessa's RPG Nightmare to fix the minor issues some players experienced or reported! Thanks again for playing!

Making Tessa's RPG Nightmare was such a boost to my mental health. I literally tuned the world and everything happening out for a straight week and dove into my creativity and I came out the other side feeling much better. Hasn't even been out twelve hours, but I'll treasure this release for that.

So some of my pals are running an RPG Maker game jam called the Cookie Cutter Jam. I have participated. Presenting the very first computer video game from "Kagamisoft"... "Tower Of Truth". Please enjoy. kagamisoft.itch.io/tower-of-truth

I'll be releasing a post-launch update for Tessa's RPG Nightmare that'll fix the typos pointed out. Only two small minor bugs have been reported and those'll be addressed too. Game's still 100% fine to play now, however. Thank you to everyone that's given it a spin and shared their thoughts.

Finishing an RPG project hits a lot different than most of my other games, already. Her Lullaby and Afterward were both huge undertakings, but this feels entirely different. I can't believe I did that in seven days.

Download version should work now.

New game is currently only playable in browser. Folks seemed to be having issues with RPG Maker 2003's installer, so I'm looking around for solutions. If I can find one, I'll put the installer back up. For now, playing in browser is fine.

socksmakepeoplesexy.itch.io/tessas-rpg-n... I just released Tessa's RPG Nightmare for @farawaytimes.bsky.social's Cookie Cutter RM2k3 Jam. It's big, and dumb, and rewards talking to/interacting with folks a lot. I hope you enjoy!

Game is 99% content complete! Just need to wrap up a couple assets and do a test run and it's DOOOOOONE!

indies vs AAA: nothing will save the industry. only hobbyiest games and trash art games will survive. like cockroaches

Thanks to one incredible gal I am going to play Chrono Gear on stream! IM BEING WEEBED AND I LIIIIKE IT twitch.tv/toad22484

www.twitch.tv/toad22484 Toad is playing Chrono Gear! Toad knows nothing about VTubers (and you really don't need to to enjoy the game) but this will be a fun playthrough!

What you can look forward to!

Final boss and epilogue are all that are left for me to complete! God this has been such a huge rush of inspiration. I've not felt this motivated in so long.

Cooking up the finale to my Cookie Cutter Jam game and holy crap I'm having such a blast lol. Maximum dumb is GO.

socksmakepeoplesexy.net/sockscast/in... Sockscast episode 182 has landed! I repeat, Sockscast episode 182 has landed!

You know you've been doing too much RPG Makering when you start typing normal things and catch yourself inserting RPG Maker syntax. \|\c[00]Been a wild last 4 days xD

Confirmed: Mayor Mamdani fucks.

Still a banger.

At the homestretch now. I think I got about an hour or a little more of RPG in this bad boy. Should be ready for release in a couple days. x)

Found a way to condense a bit of the last 1/3 of my game that I think feels a bit more fun. It's a bit of scoping down and we should always embrace scoping down. Very excited to know I have a game that's gonna be ready sometime in the next week and that I've had a blast making it.

By the by I extended the jam deadline by a day so everyone has the full weekend after this one to finish. You've also still got a couple more days to pick up RM2k3 for only two bucks on steam!

Retrothon 2026 submissions are now open! rgltv.com/events/retro... A week long celebration of retro speedruns - we can’t wait to see what you’ve got!

Game is about 60-70% finished now. Playtested everything up to this point and we're good to go. Got the rest of the day to start digging into the back half.

DMV FGC cornerstone and friend of mine Ludovic Mbock has unfortunately been detained by ICE. Folks are trying to raise money for his legal fees, please donate if you can. www.gofundme.com/f/support-lu...

Alright, I'm cookin'. This is gonna be great.

Dumping all available free time in the next 10 days to finish a game for John's Cookie Cutter RM2k3 Jam. itch.io/jam/cookie-c... Join here.

I should rebrand my game releases from PollySoft to Pollyslop.

Taking a small break from Tri to play Artificial Dream in Arcadia was a smart move. I love Tri but it requires SO much more of my brain than Arcadia. It'll be nice to have a couple DRPGs to bounce between for a bit while I pick away at some smaller things I've been wanting to get to.

I finished my cookie cutter jam game! It's a small RPG that takes about 45-60 minutes to play. Give it a look! farawaytimes.itch.io/demons-keep

oh hey John Oliver's back.

I will forever love a petty bitch.

Knocked it out of the park with this week's speedpaint. This is probably one of my favorites I've ever done, and it only has five colors! #TalienArt #GenshinImpact (process: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZF2...)
