Gen ai has poisoned the internet and finding reference and inspo images is painful now The library has saved me, what a wonderful institution
My goal when designing a level is to create a space Any Austin would appreciate
Feels good to finally 100% Alan Wake after becoming a fan a couple years ago
AI generated images are a blight on this planet so here's some hand-made Arvo! colouring pages. If you give them a go we'd love to see! Or if you want some inspo, others have posted their results in the discord
Made some colouring pages for Arvo!. Set the scene in UE, screenshots and traced in CSP. Im going to use the discord members as lab rats. I'll post updates if it goes well (or really really not well)
If you've played the update for Arvo! you might have read my favourite line! If you haven't, well, you can check it out on our itch! chronoboros.itch.io/arvo
We submitted to the Games Production Fund last month for the 2nd time which means its Arvo!'s last go for funding. I really hope we get it obviously but even if we dont its been a wild time trying to make it as an indie duo. Anyway! I have a PNGtuber avatar now!! (Thanks @crowdisciple.bsky.social)
We've been gone for a bit but it was for a good reason!! Music: i i i i i i i i i By @/roleplayinggeoff on Insta, @/rpgeoffrey on YT
Game dev taking me to some wild places Thanks @softnsquish.bsky.social for the video and your help 💕
Last week Zwei and I talked about games we played in the big 25 (youtu.be/7qxw3s1DOJI?...) Next week we're talking about Hell is Us on twitch @ / chronoboros
Its been a minute but I am still working on Arvo! even if that means making the social videos
We're working on a new map!
I will be on the Chronoboros stream chatting with Zebedee about my fear of the ocean!!
Going live in 1 hour to talk about inspiration from fears in game design over at www.twitch.tv/chronoboros
We are a week out from the closing of the funding application so my more intricate posts are on hold. Hopefully some concept art for Arvo! is enough to get people interested!
@crowdisciple.bsky.social has been hard at work to bring Impulse to life (feel free to ignore my narration and just let the art speak for itself) Impulse is just a shy little robot who likes to tinker. They are also the go-to mechanic in The Exclusion Zone.
game dev means dedicating a monitor to bear cam + nautilus live streams
I've been working on Arvo! With a friend since I finished uni. We've got our first prototype up on Itch and are working on V2!
We're still making progress on Arvo! and one of the jobs thats been on the list for a minute has been to post shortform content Here's our first go at that
We are in very early stages of development on Arvo! but we do have a prototype/proof of concept to share over on our itch! chronoboros.itch.io/arvo If you have a go, let us know what you think?

check out this little guy I made! I picked up crochet a couple years ago and it's been such a nice break from working/playing/studying on the computer
looking for game design work online feels like im speaking a different language searching 'games' jobs - oh you must be interested in gambling machines 'design' - yeah nah, interior/graphic. take it or leave it I just want to make games and earn enough to live
My portfolio website is live frazercarpenter.com I've tried to include as many details as I could about the stuff I've worked on
do people like the invasion mechanic in Dark Souls? it has been really frustrating trying to play DS3 with a friend for their first time
