I know all the game industry news sucks, but it feels like everyone is treating this like the end of video games all together instead of like, the beginning of a long and over due renaissance. When all the dust clears, what will be left is weird and cool art shit and its gonna be fuckin dope.
I have trouble getting over this dumb idea that my sketch book has to be this polished product and every page has to look amazing.
One of the best feelings in 3D Modeling is looking at a the model you made, and realizing its still named "Cube" in the explorer. #lowpoly
Jesus wept. I just called my US rep and senators and told them they have to do everything they can to stop this genocide. I told them I don't care if they're in the minority. They have options. I told them to chain themselves to the White House fence. Please call your reps, too. reps.fyi

God help us.
Work continues on the BSP import. Reworked my character controller a bit as well, and adding swimming/water control. Far from complete but a good first attempt so I can traverse some more areas. Still using Q2 maps as tests. Far from "gameplay ready" still, but getting very close

I was already in my 30s when I found out you cant really take a turtle out of its shell.
Got a late start, but here we go. #Megamanlegends #gamejam #tronbonne
Officially early-announcing a #MegaManLegends -themed #GameJam for this year! I'm giving people plenty of time to prepare and plan, but development should only officially start on November 1st! Beginner devs welcome, check it out here! itch.io/jam/mega-man...
I'm just making it up as I go at this point. I should really stop and figure it out... but I don't wanna. #lowpoly #gamedev #indiedev #demon #succubus #monstergirl #indiegame
A block out that started going in a different direction than intended. #lowpoly #gamedev #indiedev #demon #succubus #monstergirl #indiegame

Black hair has always been underrepresented in games, but we want to change that 🙌 So this week we added 20 new black and textured hairstyles into Loftia! We hand-sculpted each one and built a custom shader to add depth and softness. Quite proud of how they turned out ☺️💛
If you're mad at itch.io / steam, that's perfectly understandable. But also, sign the petition formed by the ACLU here action.aclu.org/petition/mas... If visa/mastercard can do this shit because of 1000 signatures, we shove 100k+ back in their faces. Spread this shit. Aim for a million.
Mastercard: Sex Work is Work. End Your Unjust Policy.
Mastercard's new policy unfairly targets the adult content industry, making sex workers more vulnerable, especially Black trans women. It must be stopped.

I feel like there generally shouldn't be reporting on 'successful indies' that doesn't also mention the massive swaths of indies who can't run 'successful' studios because no one will give you money if you're not already successful
It's wild how you can get really under the hood of a game and completely recode absolutely everything, and if you do the job well enough... It doesn't look like you did anything at all for the last 3 days. #indiegame #programing #indiegamedev #coding
Make sure your RPG battle transitions, scene composition, and attack animations are at least as cool as this Taiwanese DOS RPG from 1995
