Who's doing #TTRPG one shots or a short series and is looking for a goofball like this to fill a seat or maybe a guest spot? Any sign up forms out there? 👀 (* caveats apply that I have a day job and am in Eastern time and it's usually both of these that make me unable to join, but who knows…)

Pests got you down? Whip up a batch of (diluted) salad dressing, and that should clear up those locusts no problemo! 🥗 Wishlist the game and grab the demo: store.steampowered.com/app/2127570/...

Saw a lot of headlines saying "wikipedia is embracing ai" being tossed around tabloids, and I'm pretty sure they were maliciously written to make you feel a certain way about Wikipedia. What's actually happening is that wikipedia is demanding payment for data scraping and the corpos don't like that.

Garden your way today, with the Greenhearth Necromancer demo! 🏡 (and gently place us on your wishlist in the same manner as you would gently pet a small cat between its teeny ears) store.steampowered.com/app/2127570/...

If you can't handle me at my 🌱 / you can probably handle me at my 💀! (don't worry, necromancy is always an option!)

if only we could make a dental drill that does not sound Like That

@dmjazzyhands.bsky.social said it yesterday, but happy birthday my friend! I’m so glad we’ve had the opportunity to get to know each other this past year 😄💜

Importantly, it's not a pure clicker game that demands your attention constantly. Plants take time to grow! ⏰ Use it as a second-screen vibe while you work, and don't worry if you have to step away — if your plants die, you can just bring them back over and over again.

We've been calling our game Greenhearth Necromancer "semi-idle" — what does that mean? 🌱 gameplay progresses over time, plants slowly growing as you go about your day 🔮 but check in during breaks to water, cast spells, & engage in narrative (wishlist now!) store.steampowered.com/app/2127570/...

My assignment for Winona Nelson's SmArtschool class: Choose a favorite book and illustrate a cover for it. I picked "The Song of Achilles" by Madeline Miller, and my goal was to capture a similar bittersweet tone as the novel has.

It's been a heck of a journey, but the Greenhearth co-op is almost ready for you to move in! 📦 From mock-ups to prototypes, take a peek at the evolution of Greenhearth Necromancer... Every wishlist & demo download supports us! 💚 store.steampowered.com/app/2127570/...

I need @vicmmic.bsky.social in every season of @dimension20.bsky.social

The facial animations/expressions in the Spider-Man 2 game are really incredible

Silverstring Audio Director @dmvibe.bsky.social just released a new single on Bandcamp! With some biting social commentary as always devinvibert.bandcamp.com/album/1000-c...

i'm out here every day casting extra spells just for the pretty lights ✨👀

Thankfully, you live in a co-op, because a spell named "Prismatic Shower" sounds like you might not get your rent deposit back... 🌈 Unleash your full magical potential in Greenhearth Necromancer, coming soon! (You can also unleash some of your potential early with our demo!) tiny.cc/wishlistushere

As a necromancer, you'll learn new spells to 𝔢𝔫𝔥𝔞𝔫𝔠𝔢, 𝓅𝓇𝑜𝓉𝑒𝒸𝓉, and 𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘦 your undead plants. These spells will allow you to raise a plant from the dead 💀, summon a round "birb" made of water to help water your plants 🐥, and even bring the power of the moon to aid your garden. 🌙 (plus more!)

Happy New Year, all! (Or ongoing Hogmanay!) To celebrate, we're having a sale on Coyote & Crow, the RPG. You can get: The Core Rulebook The Story Guide Screen A Set of Custom dice For just $70! This sale lasts until January 12th, so get on it. www.allplay.com/board-games/... #ttrpg #Nativesky

(pssst) You can also play it *right* now, we've got a whole demo and everything! Click the link above! Give it a shot and keep it open on a second screen while you try to remember what your job is after multiple weeks of well-deserved carbs and naps. 💤🍞

If you're planning out what games you want to check out in 2026: good news, Greenhearth Necromancer comes out this year! 🎉 I cannot say when *specifically*, but the game will take root, bloom, and spring onto Steam sooner than you can say "semi-idle magical gardening sim" ➡ tiny.cc/wishlistushere

I started using sticky notes as short-term to-dos in the last few weeks and now my monitors are covered in sticky notes

I wrote a little D&D supplement inspired by Greenhearth Necromancer!! ✨3 spells and 🍾3 potions to add to your 5e game free on itch!

how your email finds me:

Sunday scaries are worse after a couple weeks, eh? Gotta use this week to get re-engaged in projects I know I love after time away while finding a way to continue exploring the new projects and ideas I yearn to make

Simply forgetting to eat is not my usual MO, but here we are 2:30pm and

It’s 1 in the morning and it’s the new year, and so it’s time to listen to this again youtu.be/Wgh8Gfs2S7M?...

Effectively put together 17,000 words of D&D supplement over the break.

LIVE NOW Join Liz as she shows off games from the Indie Allies for Impact @itch.io bundle, available straight through the end of the year. It's our last Take This Plays of 2025, so don't miss it! twitch.tv/TakeThisOrg

It wouldn't be a winter holiday if I wasn't deep-diving into a personal project.

Of course I’m also 9 years too late for all the good fan art

Finally watched Yuri on Ice for the first time thanks to @neomeruru.bsky.social ! Not as gay as I thought! The skating animations were incredible though

Look, the gay hockey show is cute and sexy and we cried.

I’ve been slowly working on a couple little projects in my spare time this last year but in the new year I really want to kick into higher gear on diversifying the kind of work I do, get back to writing, tabletop stuff, things like that

Who do I know that does logo design?

Ice cold take: The Batman is very good and while Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne doesn’t stand out it might be the best live-action take on Batman on film

NEW on the Blog: Skill Challenges. You know 'em. Or maybe you think you know 'em. Let's take a look at what they were, and what people thought they were. Three games came out this year with some improvements to the tech. Let's look at those, too! barilleon.com/skill-challe...

Again, I truly *loved* this week’s episode of Heated Rivalry, but IT IS A WISH FULFILLMENT ROMANCE. The success of a gay hockey romance TV show, largely watched by people who are neither hockey players nor hockey fans, is not “proof that the world is ready and all we would do is love you”

Quantic Foundry does legit trustworthy analysis of gamer behaviour, and these survey results are shockingly negative toward genAI, to the point where I’m more hopeful that data driven mobile and AAA backpedals on their uses.

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things. Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

Lindsay’s placeholder text is truly a joy to read, I am blessed by it every day

What real placeholder text looks like:

when the CEO is the one saying "everyone is fine with our genAI usage" i ain't believing u
