Man, I can't stress how much I despise devs, and the communities, that justify their choices with "Why would you do it that way?" Like, because I want to? Because that's how it makes sense? Looking at you OBS and your "But you will have a separate source!" for Paste Duplicate. That's👏The👏Point👏

Ayo 2 Electric Ayogaloo - Had a blast speaking #videogames with Bullfrog legend #gamedev Alex, @bulkpaint.bsky.social, today and really look forward to sharing the episode in the future! Huge thanks to Alex for their time and be sure to check them out in the interim! Also follow for release info!

Ayo! Had a great talk with David, @chubigans.bsky.social , today about a bunch of fun stuff! Got to have fun instigating some "Old men yelling at clouds" moments as well 🙃 Huge thanks to David for their time and company! Looking forward to sharing the ep in the new year!

Had a great talk with Ryan, @ryanikeaudio.bsky.social, tonight. Really looking forward to sharing the episode in the future, especially because 2 of my lightning q's did better than I ever could have imagined haha Huge thanks to Ryan for their time! Be sure to check them out! #gamedev #videogames

Everything is honestly fine. I just have a lot of adult stuff I have to sort out as well as try to create a bigger backlog of episodes so that I don't feel like I'm drowning when balancing finding guests and releasing at the same time. Adulting is hard and exhausting sometimes 🫠

Chat, i was sitting with a gen alpha at Thanksgiving tonight and... We are so cooked. Pack our shit in, it's over. We are so done

Hey buddies its time for a midweek #podcast bump! for the latest episode featuring #gamedev Devon Wiersma! Unfortunately I never do anything for spooky season, so how about we just pretend being Canadian is spooky and you can be scared of two Canadians talking about #videogames?

I heard from someone today that Bluesky is just full of extremists and crazy people and it's doomed to fail... Y'all, whose hiding all the crazies? Everyone here seems mostly sane. Am i missing out on all the fun? Or am i supposed to be truly unhinged here promoting cheese olives or something?

Ahoy! New episode featuring indie game dev Devon Wiersma ( @devonwiersma.bsky.social) is now live! Find @ bit.ly/3KQkbg2 & most services! Huge thanks to Devon for their time and be sure to check them out via links in the ep desc! #gamedev #videogames

Every time I read people complaining/criticizing a solution to a problem as not the best, or that there are better options or what have you... Remember, perfection is the enemy of good. Progress is progress and only pushing for "perfect" ignores that progress. Baby steps teach to walk then run

I really hate that people keep saying "Canada Post is a public service and doesn't need to be profitable"... No, it was until '81. Then it turned to a crown corp with a mandate to be profitable. The rhetoric needs to be "Canada post needs to be a public service again". Technicalities matter here.

Well this is weird - In grinding for items in Castlevania Symphony of the Night I have noticed Alucards pos + weapon + enemy pos has a seemingly repeatable drop rate? Either that or I am super bloody lucky and the game gave me 2 1/1024 drops near back to back because I've had a super bad week 🙃

The stars aligned and I was able to use the EoE gif. I'm legitimately shocked I had the chance but here we are!

I HAVE A NEW IDEA and oh god I'll probably get in over my head again with it but 🫠 Oddly it still largely has to do with @theredtunicpodcast.com and will go under its banner... I just... I have to find a #gamedev that will be ok with me stealing their time and the project falling through 🙃

Apparently #MTG is doing a #TMNT set for next year? And it'll likely see a Secret Lair release too?

Had a presentation at work today about what good AI could do for us... In a 1hr presentation MS CoPilot rejected the same prompts from the previous test run and then hallucinated a random user was the creator of the current project despite the presenter saying it was the owner. He blamed settings

All hail VICTOR!!! He's a real-life hero whose selflessness & courage is an inspiration to us all. Wishing you a complete & speedy recovery. I salute you, sir! 🫡

Good on @poncle.games for wanting to go in this direction and help publish games and support the #gamedevs that make them. The focus on compact games is also cool because I've noticed they seem to rely on "making it" to be successful. Love to see it and wish them all the success in the world

Budget DreamWorks. That was my first legitimate reaction and I'm sorry but i don't get how people are saying it's honoring Toriyama. I just can't.

With the ttrpg group being on a bit of a hiatus due to someone just having to become a parent (/s lol), i fear for when we get back to it... Mostly because I'm left to my own devices and I'm just thinking of one shots where all I've written is "redwall captain planet?" Or "chip n dale heist?" 🙃

Mid week bump! Mid week bump! You like learning more about #gamedevs and those in the #videogame industry? Then this is the podcast to check out!

Hey all, don't want to alarm anyone but a new episode featuring Voice Actress Sally Beaumont (@sallybeaumont.bsky.social) is out today for you to enjoy! Find @ bit.ly/3KQkbg2 & most services! Huge thanks to Sally for her time! Be sure to check her out (links in ep desc!) #videogames #gamedev

Hello! And here is one of the reasons i do the @theredtunicpodcast.com . It was a natural evolution of my own reasons and is why i try to always ask "what do you do outside of games". And it leads to cool things like favorite rocks, birds, flowers, movies, etc. Because, shocker, devs are people

"We don't have room for any more stuff animals, I'm sorry" I tell my fiancee as i go out of my way to find this asshole (See: child sized Grumpy Bear) for her.

Well this is a first - I was refused an interview from someone that reached out to me.

My drug dealer DM'd me with "got a bunch of new mecha musume in and I'm having a labor day sale" So i guess I'm buying more model kits today 🙃

"Hello Red Tunic i hope this email finds you well..." Apparently my name is Red, surname Tunic, now. Most of them are to try and get me to pay them for self admitted AI seo (lolwut) but some of them are from real people which is wild. This name is old enough to drink, think I'll keep it lol

Mid week bump y'all! Don't forget to check out the latest episode featuring #gamedev Remy Siu!

I am now dangerously close to running out of background footage for episodes which means it's time I start recording some game play again and... I legit have no damn idea what game to record. Part of me reallly wants to replay Golden Sun or Dark Cloud 2 but... I also need to kill my backlog

Hey everyone! Start your engines because a new episode featuring #Gamedev Creative Director at Sunset Visitor (@sunsetvisitor.studio) Remy Siu, @remysiu.com, is now live! Find @ bit.ly/3KQkbg2 & most services! Huge thanks to Remy for their time! Be sure to check them out! #videogames

Had a fun talk with #gamedev Mairi, @mairispaceship.com , today! Was really cool to get to talk about what a puzzle designer is for games and live events is! Huge thanks to Mairi for their time and really looking forward to sharing their episode in the future so be sure to follow for updates!

Had a fun conversation with #gamedev Courtney Millman tonight! Also finally got to say "So you like stuff?" for an ep which was great. Huge thanks to Courtney for their time and follow for future updates! Also check them out via www.artstation.com/courtneyfayart as I don't think they have a bsky!

Undercover is officially out today! AAAH! This collection of dark, moody, #synthwave cover songs was over a year in the making after a couple of them went viral on Instagram. Y'all asked for a whole album, and here it is. 🥰 distrokid.com/hyperfollow/... Enjoy the vibes. XOXO

Man, one thing I don't get for some games is they go "Hey here is a cool and unique mechanic for our game!" and then do everything to hinder your experience with that cool mechanic. And then to give you a water level where it darkens even harder by taking your 360 aim and giving you left/right.

Because I didn't have the character counts gonna just quote tweet this with #videogames lol Also, anytime I catch someone off guard with my lightning round questions, I feel they were a success. I need to think of some new ones though, goth dommy mommy is getting over used but I love it so much lol

Hot damn vanilla beans are expensive. Like sure, could have played russian roulette with beans from Amazon and just... Wasted my money but still, hot damn they ain't cheap. Also they ship via Canada Post... Hot damn I'm setting myself up for a failure here with the impending strike

Statistically men answer/say yes more for reasons i could assume but not wanting to wade into. Like boy howdy do i try to get awesome and diverse representations of #gamedevs to be on @theredtunicpodcast.com but I can't make anyone say yes. It's definitely a 2 way street. I keep trying though!

Hey y'all, you think Itch.io and other game stuff is the end of it? Nah, Stripe and Shopify are in tight together. Shopify execs have some wild ties to a lot of goose steppers as well I won't be shocked if Shopify cranks LGBTQ+ stuff higher on the risk scale and blocks it in the future as well.

I swear this was pure serendipity that the episode released the same week as the game's 1 year anniversary! If you like adventure games, be sure to check out The Crimson Diamond!

First time really sitting down to try and play Zelda II and... Holy shit this is not a good game. The "difficulty" is really just unbalanced bullshit and nonsensical designs/puzzles. Whats better most say "Get good" and no, sod off. That's not an appropriate response to this mess of game design.

I got something that rocks for y'all with this new episode featuring #GameDev Julia Minamata, @juliaminamata.bsky.social, developer of The Crimson Diamond! Find @ bit.ly/3KQkbg2 & most services! Huge thanks to Julia for their time and be sure to check the ep desc for more info! #videogames

This was supposed to be the first episode i pronounced "Algorithm" correctly after @chelwongaudio.bsky.social asked "was that a bit?" And i realized I've been pronouncing it wrong for fking years. Guess what chat! I failed miserably! Caught myself halfway through. I'm a professional, i swear.

I feel viciously attacked right now but they are probably right. Not everyone is gonna be the hawk tuah girl and get a chance to join the top grifters and then run away with all their money all from one comment she likely stole from an older family member when she was 12.

I realized yesterday I've been saying algorithm wrong for years. No one ever questioned it, they just assumed i knew what i was doing. I feel very smart. Here's to finally starting to say it correctly 🙃

I've been meaning to update/change my intros for the "video" format for a good while and finally said screw it time to do it. It's not perfect and I'll probably swing back around to it again in the future but for now, I'm happy with it and it's a much needed update for the @theredtunicpodcast.com .

Good job, proud of you OneNote. You started syncing to nothing (Because fuck OneDrive) and when you started creating your own nonsense discrepancies you just started deleting entries. This is why we can't have nice things with M$. Now to find a better solution to whatever OneNote is.

Hey, it would mean so much to me if y'all kept up the pressure with phone calls to payment processors to show to them how much people care and that they can't just ignore it—my livelihood depends on adult games not being censored! You can find info and phone scripts here: stop-paypros.neocities.org

It's funny to me just how garbage the Pokemon TCG community is that they have to branch out to ruin MTG as well. Buying whole Pkmn boxes to leave sealed & "collect" which is just code for "scalp later" wasn't good enough they've moved to MTG. Scalpers are absolute cancer and ruin everything.
