Had a "normal" job in healthcare insurance tech that I burned out of during the pandemic. After months of applying to other bland tech jobs and getting nothing, decided to say yolo and applied to every indie game studio I even slightly qualified for.

started playing Dark Cloud (1) on meg's ps2 and man..... this loop and these mechanics are so fucking peak man... this needs to be an indie game but with like animal crossing style collecting furniture and outfits in the dungeons too

Colorgrave is a studio you're likely sleeping on. They produce some of the best pixel art games with extremely tight design calling back to a wide variety of handheld genres, and not one of them has over 500 steam reviews. Please check them out; they deserve way more love than they get!

Seeing the various game awards come out this year makes me feel really disconnected with gaming. The new games I've played this year include Fantasy Life i and Blue Prince and nothing else. It's a little sad! I wanna be more connected! But I guess this is what happens when you're making a game

I've barely played any video games this year. I mean I've played a bunch of video games but barely any new to this year. At this point my GOTY is probably Against the Storm, again

I bought Clair Obscur earlier this year but I still haven't played it. Instead I'm like "Let's replay mediocre JRPG Tales of the Abyss" and "Let's repair my gamecube specifically to replay High-quality JRPG Skies of Arcadia"

Started replaying Tales of the Abyss with @bugbearstew.bsky.social and I am deeply unwell about this man

Who up missing Cohost

Anyone have a seller/store they like for loungewear pants? I need a few more, I'm wearing all mine out

I don't know if I ship Thancred and Urianger but they are, to me, the epitome of "blowjob brothers"

finished some silly #pixelart sprites for my Fabula Ultima campaign. needed to make sure everyone has a full turn-around of course

When he says “hit it, Joe”, I don’t think first time viewers are going to be prepared for just how hard Joe hits it.

I was having a bit of a bad time grinding scrip for my gatherers but then I switched to fishing and I'm like YES... HAHAHA... YES!!!!

Heard about the Louvre jewel heist and my first thought was “finally, some good old fashioned normal crime”

Explaining FFXIV crafting to @bugbearstew.bsky.social: "Ok so I have to craft a new set of armor so I can craft a better set of armor. I'll use THAT set to craft an even better set of armor. Then I can use that armor to craft my relic tools" I swear it's fun

I finally got to the end of FFXIV Dawntrail/7.0's story so I can do what really matters: crafting and big fishing

40k hit and 10 days to go to raise the last 16k!!! we can do it and we can go past it >:)

Started playing FFXIV again and was getting pretty bored in Dawntrail MSQ but as soon as I unlocked gathering my sicko brain lit up and now I'm here for it

I was looking for Robot Alchemic Drive but I found Tales of the Abyss instead, which I can force my boyfriend to replay with me

I think social media websites should be good and friendly to people trying to live their life and not bad and actively hostile to their userbase

Our indie Roguelike RPG where you play an Angel that rebuilds his brain back from scratch is over 50% funded on Kickstarter, with 2 weeks left to go. We need ⚔️ YOUR HELP ⚔️ to cross the finish line! (Kickstarter, Steam Demo & Discord links in first comment 🔽)

blanksword officially over that 50% mark! 17 days left plenty of time to hit our goal and then some! lets fucking go

I've been playing a lot of Against the Storm recently and a really fun emergent game to play with it is to have someone who knows nothing about how the game works advise you. It's like being the good-hearted but incompetent king with an evil royal vizier

blanksword is just under 50% !!!! lets get it there

Doodle of the Blorbo of the Moment

I resubbed to Tidal because my partner mentioned that their recommendation algorithm was pretty good. I am 30 or 40 years old and my ass is still getting recommended boys like girls and god damn it, my ass is still jamming to it

Is it fucked up that I want to get back into FFXIV solely to craft and fish. I do not care about the plot of dawntrail I just want to make things and get mad when I make things bad

I don't like to stir the pot but fuck it. At the end of Homestuck's life, Andrew Hussie deleted the official discussion forums for his comics, for no apparent reason other than he didn't want to moderate it any more. This decision hurt hundreds of creatives, many of whom were my good friends

One of the things I see people use to justify Homestuck’s actions, unprofessionalism, and inability to finish a point and click video game is that it’s a small group of underfunded queer creatives, when in reality it’s Hussie using his wealth and legal team to push away anyone but underpaid diehards

Sad news: we did everything we could, but we couldn’t save The Unofficial Homestuck Collection. Here’s what’s been going on behind the scenes. Sorry in advance; it's real bad.

oh hey I don't have to aggressively crop my great Snap & Grab commit messages anymore! anyway, new design verbiage just dropped.

Another #UrbanShadows character, this time belonging to @sonyafiore.bsky.social!

Hi there! My partner Felice (USA) and I (France) are looking to bridge the gap of 3000 miles of ocean! Please help us cover the costs of travel and get some discounted arts for a limited time!! tinyurl.com/yemdmform

Really taken by how pretty this yarn's color is

going to knit & crochet festivals is so fun. My boyfriend will come along and ask me "is this knit or crochet" about the samples, and I'll answer him, and then he asks "how can you tell" and I try to explain that knitting has V's, to which he says crochet also has V's, and damn he aint wrong

Not an artfight, but still gift art for a friend in our #UrbanShadows group

Every time I see Chrono Cross I think "I should replay Chrono Cross." This is despite the fact that I've completed the game to the end several times and experienced every branching path. The story might be a mess that's completely unrelated to Trigger, but I still love it and everything else.

I'm late to this but let's go, I have nothing better to do tonight

Is it a good video game? No. So is it a bad game? Can't say I agree. It is a truly singular experience, unbridled ambition combined with hardware that could not handle it. The frustration of the gameplay is only matched by the sublime silliness of the story.

I'm late to this but let's go, I have nothing better to do tonight

For my birthday @yako.itch.io and I made a cheesecake yummm

Next #Artfight attack! Character belongs to @kokoronis.com #Artfight2025 #teamfossils
