Sorry I have not been so active recently - I have had some health issues and have been on a variety of whacky medications. My mood has been up and down in a way that I have felt uncomfortable sharing with others. I'm sorry!!

Hey! Happy new year!

I was close

Feel like Grapple Dog 1 is gaining more of an audience as it gets included in bundles and goes on deeper sale. Keep seeing people finding it for the first time. What's weird is there's a lot of folks going 'this game has issues!' and I agree I fixed them in the sequel that is also out.

Humble Choice September Bundle is up ($14.99) buff.ly/gDyiGHx #ad

Oh hey! Grapple Dog is in the Humble Choice lineup this month! Go get it + many other cool games !!

9 years ago today I was drawing boats in Helsinki.

WE ANIMATED A REBECCA SUGAR MUSIC VIDEO!!! ICE WATER IS OUT NOW!

Doing a lot of prototyping recently and feel like an idiot. How do you make video games please

There's only 6 days left for the Kickstarter with less than 50% funded! It's a big stretch, but any exposure for the game will be good in the long run 🐦 #indiegame #videogames #gamedev #roguelike #Kickstarter

Beat Harmony of Dissonance. It fixes a lot of the problems with Circle but is also weird in its own ways. Controls a lot better, is a lot clearer, but also introduced this weird two castle system and a lot of the upgrades are unclear. The bosses are really disappointing.

🟩BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!!🟩 WE ANIMATED A MUSIC VIDEO FOR REBECCA SUGAR'S UPCOMING ALBUM: "LONELY MAGIC"!!! 🎉🎉🎉 See the "Ice Water" music video and check out the whole album 8/29!!!!

Why doesn't every dev simply spend the better part of a decade on their projects?? Why don't more people simply win the lottery?? Why doesn't everyone wear shoes on their heads ???

ever wanted to decide what i speedrun? congrats! you have from August 20th to August 31st to decide what game with an iconic femme protagonist i learn in a 12 hour challenge, all benefitting Malala Fund and @framefatales.com (and also i'm doing a lot PLEASE WATCH THIS VIDEO TO LEARN MORE)

I guess I should finally finish Hollow Knight huh

Oh hey I worked on this game!! Not sure how much of my work is still in there but check it out !

Cute Newt is happy to have finally announced our game, Wildekin! It was shown at Gamescom earlier today. Wishlist Steam: bit.ly/WildekinSteam Wishlist Xbox: bit.ly/WildekinXbox #Wildekin WildekinGame.com Explore, build, survive & thrive! Play with 4 friends online in this wild adventure.

I see a lot of developers on Reddit scolding amateurs about how they should market their games and I just want you to know I hate you.

Have a name and concept for the next game.

And then they gave the character an option to transform and get a sword and shield anyway ??

Playing through the GBA Castlevania's and my god Circle of the Moon is an experience

One Grapple Dog design thing I've been thinking about recently: Making the Luna bosses was so fun, making the Pablo bosses was like getting blood from a stone.

It turns out there is a fair amount of Grapple Dog porn out there. Okay. Fair enough.

Announcement time!! 🚨 Grapple Dogs: Cosmic Canines' Stage Editor will officially launch August 8th!! 🪝🐶 BUT we are also making it available as a Public Beta RIGHT NOW!! Wow!! Head over to GDCC in your steam library and type in 'gdccisagoodgame' to get access :)

started makin a metroidvania. Had an idea.

Saw Fantastic Four. Really liked the retro 60s set-design and props. Reminded me of Billion Dollar Brain (another film I love for its chunky analogue vision of the future). Storytelling was hmmm not so good.

Have like 5 design docs written for Next Game and can't decide between any of them. Keep working a little on everything. Oh dear.

I heard Grapple Dogs Cosmic Canines will be in the new Nintendo Direct. It already came out last year but I think they'll put it in there anyway just to do me a solid.

Now it's a race to see who makes 1-1 in Grapple Dogs first

would anybody like an announcement??

Also, I finished Grapple Dog! I enjoyed this quite a bit! Gameplay was fun(if a bit difficult to control at times), the Story was basic but has a LOT of charm with the dialogue, and the art style is great. Highly recommend this one!

Zoomed in action!

Having a not fun mental health time at the moment.
