never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.
It's Abbi!

I haven't updated on Computer Mouse in a while, because admittedly there's not a lot to update. Been very busy, and I've run into a couple design challenges I've been stuck on for a minute.
Looking after plants is so easy until one starts dying and every symptom points at either overwatering or underwatering at the same time. And the suggested fix for one issue might kill it if it's the other.
It's weird having been on the internet for a while because sometimes someone gets big and starts showing up on your timeline that you recognise because you used to play Minecraft with them.
for people not into sega IP the dlc characters for sonic racing crossworlds looks like this
A lot of people would be afraid to admit it but I'm so hungry for a yummy burger right now
A lot of people don't realise this but in the UK we have to replace our Prime Minister every two or three years or else the rights revert back to Marvel
Been out in the woods for a few days (still technically am) and missed a lot of gaming news - they're making a Pikuniku 2??
Anyone fancy teaming up for the Godot Wild Jam next week?
Walked into a pub earlier with walls coated top to bottom in punk rock and alternative band posters, but the jukebox was just playing Duel of the Fates from Star Wars. Baffling, but incredible vibes.
hey gamedevs! I know you're always needing music for your prototypes and jam games... well, did you know @skye.computer is giving away over 300 free-to-use tracks? they're completely free (or optionally PWYW 💕) we also made some neat cover art for each volume! skyeash.itch.io/skyetunes
SKYETUNES by Skye Ash
Astonishingly free-to-use tracks!

I feel like there should be a limit on how many sitcom-style misadventures one person can be subjected to in a year.
Writing myself a list of tasks for Computer Mouse and it's starting to sound like I'm designing some sort of sales system. I've started making every 3 or 4 tasks extra whimsical to balance it out.
Finally back to adding new features to Computer Mouse after a couple weeks of rewriting and optimization. Now got a working in-game shop for components, and the physics on items has been completely reworked!
Steamed Hams is old enough that he feels conflicted because everyone younger than he is has no emotional attachment to the simpsons golden age and everyone slightly older than him can talk exclusively in simpsons quotes for hours
22 Short Films About Springfield first aired on 14th April 1996, making Steamed Hams thirty years old today.
On the bright side, built a developer console. Weirdly excited about this, and it's already made testing so much easier!
Started working on Computer Mouse after a short break, had an idea on how to make it easier to handle the random generation, should just be a quick fix. So I've spent the last five days rewriting most of the game.
Had to sell a couple tickets for the Droupout Live show in Birmingham this June, if anyone's interested: secure.ticketmaster.co.uk/rs/1F006289F...

I got a classic iPod for Christmas and it's genuinely improved my music listening experience.
genuinely fascinating that we’ve hit a point where the full monetization of the internet and ai bot takeover has led to a majority of people wanting tech minimalism

I've been taking my time with TotK to try and complete as much of the side content before I beat the main game. I'm missing one shrine, and it's killing me.
