Today I learned "Jetstream Sam" is a metal gear character and not like. a fucking. nintendo 64 game about jetskiing
I really hope I don't sound like an asshole when I remind people this game is for me. I'm just trying to be preemptive about my boundaries. I'm trying to be proud of the fact that I'm finally making art for myself again. Puppygame was not something I thought would get an ounce of attention
This might be difficult to understand because of how commercialized games have become but someone can make a game without giving you what you want even if it would be easy to do so. Games are art. You wouldn't lean over someone's shoulder while they're painting a sunset and ask them to add the moon.
Im surprised by how many people are asking for modding support for puppygame. I've never had anyone ask for modding support in one of my games though wnd this feels like the last place someone would ask for it
This will be the US if the SCREEN Act passes. Call your Senators before August 5 and tell them that you oppose the SCREEN Act, KOSA, and the KIDS Act. Use the official lookup tool at www.senate.gov/senators/sen... to find yours by state.
people need to understand that games on steam largely do not ‘underpeform,’ they either hit the algorithmic tipping points and become viral successes or they do not exist. they sell bad day at a garage sale numbers. this is a reality constructed and encouraged by valve
"Bee, why'd you put the milk in before rhe cereal? Silly puppy" would be your first thought, and a rookie mistake at that
I worked on some new visuals for Stomp today and honestly it just kicks ass so much. I can't wait to make a new trailer I have so much new pretty stuff to show off
I grew up in a small town with pretty much no queer scene at all so it's a little funny going out and seeing queer people in public in the city and my response is "!!!" and they seemingly don't even register me because queer people are just normal to them

I wish I knew that the trans march was happening earlier than 20 minutes before it ended 😔

One thing ive discovered by living on my own is that if i hold fun hostage until im done my chores or whatever i kinda just lock up, and that honestly explains a lot about my childhood
Basically the art style I'm employing here makes no attempt to hide the digitalness of its nature. Nor is it trying to accurately emulate any old consoles. It's almost a caricature of that vibe while being modern in other ways (there's plenty of high res textures, audio isn't usually compressed etc)
i think if you were to pet her, her "fur" would feel like that fuzzy layer of static that builds up on a CRT screen. do you understand what im saying
Im sitting here petting my dog and playing fetch with it and suddenly twelve hundred strangers lined up waiting for their turn to play fetch with my dog
To summarize this thread more bluntly: dont make me regret sharing this project with you. Not that anything all that bad has happened, but I know how weird people can be to creators. This is a game I'm making to heal my relationship with art. I don't want it ruining my connection to my sona.
why is every third car car outside my window today just slamming down the horn for 30 seconds straight today

I try to be friendly and kind and keep my space online welcoming and comforting but remember I am effectively a stranger to you. This game is a space for me to play and goof off, and the puppy is a representation of myself.

The thing about me is I'm literally just some random girl none of you know making a video game about herself as a puppy for fun and to recover from burnout. I'm literally just a stranger playing with toys for fun over here.
