After a crazy 30 days, we can say that Fractured Library is officially FUNDED, and guys, we're getting a Library cat! We're honestly still in shock by the response, but the main thing we want to say right now is thank you, and we'll have lots to share soon! #cozygame #fracturedlibrary #gaming

I've been seeing a lot of pixel artists struggle with Bluesky's image compression, so I'd thought I'd share how to get clear, crisp pixels on the site! Share to help a fellow pixel-artist! #pixelart #tutorial

I found this video very insightful for character-driven storytelling. My main takeaway was this: Do your characters drive the story forward in a way that's different than if they were replaced with someone else? Do they steer the story, or does the story steer them? 🧵(1/2) #writing #storytelling
