Today, 136 years ago. At least, that's when he pulled the trigger. "La tristesse durera toujours", but he was wrong. Nothing durera toujours. That's a trap too -- perhaps tomorrow's sadness is unique and different from today's, but it's all just oatmeal. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hEM...

GameBrief@gamebrief.bsky.social · 2w agoCalling a moving train level polish touches undersells it, environmental movement usually breaks combat math built for static ground. Did it fight you or come together clean?
designed a logo for Eye of the Commando — a cool dungeon crawler inspired by 80's action movies! 😎 big thanks to @madjackmcmad.bsky.social for commissioning me, it was a ton of fun!! Check out the patchnotes to see his pixel rendition of my logo (or better check it in full in game) 🙂

Been working with this fellow and he's a delight. Creativity and responsiveness, easygoing back and forth, and high quality work. We're not done yet, so I guess there's time for me to regret this post, but I won't.

Everyone in the city where I live is very excited about a racoon with my name. Surely I can translate this into selling more video games. Let me just think on it for six weeks, please hold.
You're not alone little guy. Imposter syndrome is everywhere.
