Ahhh, sorry about all the random reposts of old stuff! I'm referencing things for a new journal entry, which should be out soon!!!

Narratives are one good way of exploring emotions/psychologies of characters, how else could we uncover them? Imagine drawing/typing up a "space" without beginning or end, just differences between two points, a big ol' mess which reveals an undogmatic tracing of inner life

Two outfits for Dragon Bash this yeaaar #GW2 #Asura

Some music 👾 (using the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon sound-font)... visuals made in Blender and rendered in #Godot! #8bit

Some more #Myst inspired modeling, trying to get that saturated fantasy steampunk feeling!! I used lots of trim sheets with #Godot vertex shading

HELLO MY NAME IS MARKET PLIERS

TODAY'S PIECE WAS INSPIRED BY THIS COZY GAME (if homesteads are your thing, pls check this gw2 tribute out it's so cute @slyllama.net did AWESOME) Mwehe the jade bot with le fishie :] Takeaways: - GOUACHE WILL SAVE YOUR ASS - I still don't get colour theory, we YOLO #watercolor #dailyart #doodle

Thank you so much for the kind words on #JadeSpring… once again I’m like “whaaa 😭”… 💚 I’ve been taking a tiny internet break (ish), today I started looking at my next game pitch again! Hoping I can have a strong idea of what I wanna make by the end of Feb

Tiny 8MB #JadeSpring patch: * Fixed wobbly light rays, like really wobbly * Attenuator keyboard plays snappier * Ambient sounds better track to camera * Small hint about scaling decorations * Small hint about clearing whole garden

My vibing 'sura (he is wanted in multiple nations for financial and tax fraud) #Asura

Jade Spring is released!!! 💚 If you want a Canthan garden to cleanse and renovate with a variety Tyrian-inspired decorations, this little #GuildWars2 fan-game might be for you.

Making progress on my Linux build :D but there are still a bunch of things I can't do on there... so I make some progress on my work, but then I have to scurry over to Windows, do a couple of things, scurry back, etc xD

#gw2 #guildwars2

Woohoo!!

AHHH, IT’S TOMORROW!! 💚 All merged into the main branch

Behold the Creature!! With trails and weighted animations

Omg, I feel like my actual idea is nerdy and boring compared to the hype-post xD but... for work we need to maintain big lists of products, and it's been really cumbersome... I tried using the #Godot engine to basically make a "game" which makes editing and rendering them easy, and it works!!

Nobody panic, but I've had an idea

flight

I keep seeing “code with LLMs or get left behind” and every bad outcome is blamed on “poor prompting”… but if your AI-powered process demands full unit test coverage and a comprehensive spec, isn’t that just… programming again at that point? Sly don’t get it

HELLO EVERYONE!!!

👑🫐 #gw2 #guildwars2

Folks are explaining their profile picture origins... mine is from Syti who is an AMAZING artist, and I've been so happy with it for a good while now!!! 💜

At long last, finishing getting the Asuran Portal into Jade Spring! (It doesn't take you anywhere..... yet) #GW2

goodnight

Jade Spring is a cozy #GuildWars2 gardening and homesteading fan game, and 1.0 is out on the 1st of Feb, woohoo! We have weed-picking, bug-clearing, fish-feeding, and 70 hand-made decorations from across wider Tyria 💚 read on for some more info...

A Winter Farewell

Yesterday I brought my hard drive home but forgot my graphics tablet pen... today I brought my tablet back to be reunited with its pen, but forgot the hard drive... 💀

So cool to see Spry Fox go independent!! Spirit Crossing has such an amazing style (and friendly concept), but it was only through Netflix... I wanna play!!

For some reason, my IP/cookies think I’m a hospital… like not a nurse, but the hospital itself… the ads on my phone are all for wholesale MRI scanners, healthcare software, and steel pipes O_O

Speaking of the final stretch before release, I made a new internal nerd tool for #JadeSpring which lets me live-adjust how decorations appear in the game and preview!! It should help speed up this last part of sculpting decorations and adding them to the game #GameDev

Psst… you got games on your phone? 🥺 #GuildWars2 #Asura

THE LEGEND IS BACK!!!

I'M EXCITED, managed to get loading times for #JadeSpring substantially down by threading, and only loading each decoration once, even if they appear multiple times!!! @areyoshi.bsky.social was a huge help in identifying some ways to adjust this system 🥺

My little #GameDev bash script/concept... this is for copying from an external disk to a PC (and I have one for the reverse); it's great for working across multiple computers! It checks if the disk is present first, prints out a list of changes, asks for your confirmation, and then does a delta

Farewell #GW2 Wintersday, always so fun 🥰 here's the wall I artisanally crafted while @areyoshi.bsky.social actually defended the map and saved us

Ugh, more AI stinkers in VS Code. I found that you can disable it all by setting chat.disableAIFeatures YEET!!!

Some art I've been working on for Dwelt (next game), trying to develop my painted style even more and keep the topology really efficient!!! It's been fun to develop #Godot #GameDev

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!

I've been collecting my robot game experiments from 2024 as part of pre-production for the new game!! At the time I wasn't very happy with much of it but, looking back I think there might be a bit of potential in there #Godot #GameDev

I forgot to pack my graphics tablet today, so I had to draw this in Paint with a mouse but 🥺 AUGH

Chapter illustration done for Cortex Prime Handbook few years ago! The actual book has a diagonal crop on the right so it's a bit awkward on its own like this. It was an extremely fun project to work on (cities!! my fave) and I'm really happy to share the book with all the amazing artists there.

Under construction for Jade Spring, the windmill from #GW2 Gendarran Fields!! You can check everything being added here: slyllama.net/journal/jade-1-0doc
