I help port awesome adventure games to the Mac. I also develop games for the Playdate.
Comet has some new key art, and I LOVE IT! It was a lot of fun to work with @mekadow.bsky.social to explore Stella's design again and make some new art that represents her and the mood of the game a little more closely. This was spurred on by a push from @spaceindie.bsky.social...

With Sony moving away from physical discs after 2028, I just want to say one thing: as long as it's possible, you can count on me to keep releasing physical boxed editions of my tiny games. 🔥

As I performed a pull-to-refresh action in a mobile web browser, I was reminded how that started out as a third party idea during the early, halcyon days of mobile development and not everything had been established yet for the rising platforms.
