a short demonstration on the adaptive battle music in Diorama Break! (@studiomassimog.bsky.social) this design is my attempt at taking the common implementation technique of crossfading between two variations of the same track and attempting to iterate on it further- (🧵)

It's time... Today is the initial release of the chapter 1 demo for #DioramaBreak! I'm the lead character artist, focusing mainly on the (pixel art) dialogue portraits and CGs, but I also helped with character designs and guided the overall art direction early on massimog.itch.io/dioramabreak

Diorama Break. This is absolutely my shit. RPGs with laser focused MCs/unreliable narrators. The combat is really fun if takes a learning curve. My heart dropping every time they tell me everyone dies shows I'm already all in. I really need full gamepad support.

My tactics JRPG demo is out TRY IT, TRY IT, TRY IT!!

sorry.

Announcement! Demo will be available January 2026! www.dioramabreak.com

PAX West 2025 Retrospective blog.massimogauthier.com/p/pax-west-2...

Also really happy with the positive reaction at PAX, first time we're really showing something complete-ish in public so it's super gratifying to see

We'll be at PAX West! *Exclusive* first taste of Diorama Break gameplay (do not ask if it will be good; it is *exclusive*). Booth 654 in the Arch expo hall, near Aether Studios and Fraymakers. And the schedule, apparently.

Finally out of my antonblast phase

I think a lot of people are missing context when it comes to disputes about AI coding capabilities, so I tried to get an AI coding tool to reimplement a feature in my game to see how well it would do: blog.massimogauthier.com/p/seeing-how...

All systems check- ready for blast off. ANTONBLAST launches onto Steam and Nintendo Switch on December 3rd. 💥
