I had to put together a collage recently of all the public projects I've worked on. Feels kinda nice looking at all of them together.

I'm the least capitalistic person in this office and I've gotten atleast 4 people to start saving and investing.... Mission failed?

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

Can't wait till I can sustain myself off of my own game dev because omg would I wanna spill so much about how horrible game dev companies are.

its crazy that in such an interconnected world, we still prefer hiring in the same country/city. Born in the wrong location? Well looks like some industries are just locked for you.

Airports are funny If I'm on time I judge people for being late. If I'm late I judge those that were on time. I must be the coolest person here no matter.

steam is down, quick post your games here instead!

the weekend update for shel is that I've been having fun moving stuff around and not organizing at all

I absolutely hate English proficiency test requirements, the fact that they expire and also the fact that my country was colonized for hundreds of years so I absolutely had to adopt English but for some reason I have to prove that to you??

Do y'all go and refactor code to make things more generic ever? It's a relatively new thing for me but I'm trying to make things more reusable for future projects and it's proving to be quite fruitful.

If you like what we've been doing with shel, contact protocol is another game in the same genre and y'all should go show them love!

It's been a long time coming but @teamgramps.bsky.social is finally prepping for our first commercial release! Shel: The Cure is available to wishlist on steam now, please go wishlist and spread the word!

being at game devs of color this year has made me want to meet more devs from the sub continent, we get a lot of love for pakistan and india but I'd like to meet devs from bangladesh, srilanka, the maldives and obviously the glorious nepal too! send me starter packs if you got them!

whenever I look deeper into someone claiming to be "innovative" why do I find the most uninspiring copy paste crap, or that they just acquired something else that may have been innovative and encrapified it?

🎉 3 DAYS!! 🎉 We've got some exciting news on the way :) keep your eyes peeled on our bsky for more info!

I wonder how many of my posts have been screenshot and posted to random Facebook groups.

Petition to refer to all job roles that deal with data pipelines as Data Mario from henceforth.

Im like inches away from 1k, if the bsky gods could bless me before our next big game at gramps it would be amazing!

The hottest silksong take I keep seeing pertaining to the actual game is literally "enemies and bosses in this area are hard" People! It's a Metroidvania, go a different direction! You'll get something that makes the place you're struggling with easier!

So its been a few years, but what's everyone's go to first wordle guess?

oh hey, thats me.

discord needs to make it easier to search for a server I know I can ctrl+k but also like I wanna be able to search for this specific server that I know is owned by my friend but I dont remember what goofy name they gave it.

I need a friend who sits in voice and tells me about their day while I clean

Happy silksong day everyone!

is it just me or has agile just become a way to make sure things get rushed in 2 days or less noo matter how complex something may be?

Discord can we please do something about all the freaking impersonators??? Like seriously it's at a point where joining any large server just means you get bombarded with DMs that are trying to scam.

launching minecraft in 2025 feels so magical. I think I'm finally ready for a forever save

So team cherry could just delay silk song by another like 7 days and make history....

YO! I am playing peak tonight on my twitch with a bunch of cool streamers and yall should follow and tune in! the twitch is: twitch.tv/myshiogg

jorts are back?! you're telling me I went through tween years peril for nothing?!!?

Something actually being employed and doing game dev every single day has helped me with is: now I'm actually faster when it comes to building systems I have an idea about, like I can just brrrrr and throw a UI together whereas that would take me a few days before.

I get so giddy when I get to use actual math in my programming! Need to compare two differences? Use a square magnitude instead of a full magnitude because we're still comparing two numbers and we don't need to do an expensive square root! Math y'all!

90% of cool games are cancelled before you even hear about them.

WHY IS THERE A LOGIN BUTTON IN NOTPAD NOW?!?! ITS NOTEPAD!!!

figured out how to handle random events in my roguelike sideproject. I wonder if anyone recognizes this reference 🤔

Everything is a weapon in the hands of a capitalist.

I don't really get the hype around games conferences anymore. I'm okay with the part about attending and meeting people. The part where we just see a bunch of things get announced one after the other, yeah that feels weird now.

feast your eyes on the worst team selection screen ever! well atleast it works hehe

This is quite possibly the greatest YouTube video ever made.

So umm are there any bsky feeds or follow packs for content creators?

Does anybody else feel sad when they get far with a scammer but then the scammer just stops? Like fam I wanna do the dance but I also want to know how you ended up here, don't just block me when it gets to the juicy bits >.<

Does categorizing games in genres hold designers back? Like if I start putting my game in a genre am I more compelled to make decisions along the line of "games in this genre need to have xyz"?

When I start thinking about algorithms in content the best advice is literally "I'm making content for people not math functions" - worried about how often to post? "I can probably communicate a schedule" - worried about algorithmic appeal "imagine one person the vid is for" Works every time.

Anyone else feel like playing Minecraft every time they hear a Coldplay song?

I started using a Wii fit to track my BMI recently, although that little voice can be brutal, honestly the silliness of it all helps keep me consistent and looking forward to tracking things.

I don't think we'll grow as an industry in many places until a few people lose the "games are for children" mentality. People that legit run their studios still have this ideology here and it's keeping us pretty back.

Anyone else stop loading bars at 99 so people don't complain that it doesn't load after 100%?

I miss the days when engineering actually went into "kids are gonna drop this" DS's and Wii's last for ages for a reason!

aight lets play a game! Can yall guess what this game is going to be about based on this gif?

My therapist told me to be nicer to myself in public sooo I guess I'm really proud of my passion for games!
