I love it when my friends tell me about their OCs and lore. "Look, I made a guy. This is why he can't ever find peace. Here's his dick"
Yay I'm finally done with the devlog! It's actually a postmortem about my recent games in using different VN engines and also me announcing I'm taking a gamedev hiatus until probably spring next year since I have a lot of shit I should do. itch.io/blog/1615249...
A Giant Postmortem for 6 Micro Visual Novels, or On Trying Out New VN Engines
lmao you ever just... make a postmortem longer than the 6 games you just published? This devlog is going to be a long one since it involves not just the postmortems and my thoughts behind Potato Chip....

I don't want to shoot videos I don't want to post tutorials I don't want to show my process I don't want to pour varnish I don't want to turn my canvas I don't want to record my screen I don't want to cultivate parasocial relationships I just want to make pictures and shitpost

The TOS being so strict that they control you offsite is the problem; sites like Patreon and Kofi have offsite clauses too. The social criminalization of the suggestion that somewhere you might be doing nsfw is a problem. It's branding a person as obscene and we need consumers to stand up for us

Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. If some lady handed me a free sword I'd still take it though.
a couple of female eurasian bullfinches foraging through bushes 🍃 i haven't worked with gouache in a minute, but fell in love all over again with this piece
Occured to me that I can collect all of these in a single post, on account of the carousel. Anyway, some postcards from elsewhere:
