I spent the price of a PS5 upgrading an 8-year-old HP desktop instead of... buying a PS5. Then I installed Bazzite on an NVIDIA GPU despite several very large warnings. But it was mostly a success! I wrote about the adventure here: gettegarage.substack.com/p/i-spent-ps... #linux #gaming #bazzite

I spent PS5 money trying to make my life cozier

Him: "why are you standing on that tortoise?" The theme for this was "re-imagine something from the museum", so I decided to paint the sculpture (titled: "Figure standing on a tortoise") into a scene. if anyone has any tips on photographing paintings without glare pls help #oilpaint #art #paint

analogous color schemes are so hot right now #oilpaint #traditionalart #pear #art #stilllife

working on my game and finally happy with how the spawning and terrain forming algorithms are working together. So much so that I think I'm actually going to work on something else. Like inventory But code isn't fun to share, so I've also been practicing with gouache #art #gouache #figure

I decided instead of making things up as I go, I'd take an actual oil painting class (IN PERSON!) so someone could remind me which end of the brush to use Behold! A monochromatic pear! I'll be taking all of your pear-shaped commissions now #oilpainting #traditionalart #art

My friends and I are playing an "Oops all Barbarians" campaign and I wanted to make some character portraits! Trading card size (2.5"x3.5") in oil Two members of the party are Chanel and Dorgothy - a zelot tabaxi and a wrestling half-orc nun #art #dnd #oilpaint #painting #tradingcards 1/2

Felt compelled to start messing with a little platformer mechanics Here are the first animations and jump height tuning 🦝 #solodev #gamedev #platformer #pixelart #indiegames

I wonder if it was a surprise that this was going to be the picture they used for his card or if he was given options and this was his favorite #art #charcoal #sketchbook #baseball #sports

Adding sounds really starts to make the environment come alive. Especially when I get the different birds involved 🐦 #indiedev #gamedev #soundfx #forthebirds #simulation

Day 7 sketching sports cards: the twist on this one for some reason broke my brain and I didn't leave myself enough room. oh well they can't all be winners 😅 #art #dailysketch #baseball #sketchbook

Day 6 sketching 90s sports cards: this guy reminds me of my dad if my dad played for the giants instead of farmed #dailysketch #sketchbook #art #baseball

Day 5 sketching 90s sports cards: as every kid in the 90s I was a big Bulls fan despite not living anywhere near Chicago. I'm not even sure I ever watched an NBA game, but I did see Space Jam #art #drawing #sketchbook #chicagobulls

Day 4 sketching 90s sports cards: I got distracted my his mustache and failed to realize how high waisted those pants were until it was too late #art #sketchbook #baseball #dailysketch

Day 3 sketching 90s era sports cards 1995 NBA playoff card 😁 #sketchbook #sports #basketball #tradingcards #drawing

Day 2 sketching from random sports cards I collected as a kid Someday my laptop will arrive, but today is not that day #pencilsketch #sketchbook #art

Working on sketching while waiting impatiently for my new laptop to arrive so I can get back to my game! I also discovered that my trading cards from the 90s make good action references 😁 #gamedev #art #sketchbook #drawing

Back working on bird habitats -- Today's progress is getting the habitat (e.g. trees) to update the habitat and terrain. Finally got the growth and shade mechanic so you can go from meadow -> forest with a few trees #gamedev #godot #indiedev #forthebirds #devlog

I'd like to say my pencil is this small because I've used it a lot, but in reality I'm clumsy and keep dropping it and breaking the end #art #graphite #pencilsketch #sketchbook

I never really liked using graphite all that much. but it's starting to grow on me #art #sketchbook #drawing #figures #graphite

Spent the last hour getting monogame running on my raspberry pi. I'm not totally sure why I'm putting a game dev workflow on a raspberry pi, but I like it. Maybe I'm procrastinating again. #monogame #raspberrypi #gamedev #indiegames
