Dear trans people who see this: you are all very brave, and I could never be as brave as you. I cannot express the respect I have for being yourself even if it makes the world hate you. That is all.

Solaire will not be part of party based tpg fest mostly because the demo is not done but also there are only two party members in the demo.
Thats not a party thats just two people hanging out.

In Massachusetts, we have a responsibility to protect the vulnerable and stand up for those who need it. We don’t throw trans kids under the bus for political points. We protect them—and all of our neighbors—because trans rights are human rights.

Sometimes I think UX designers must just be really hungry based on how they name stuff.

Once again I’ve got a bunch of new followers (hello!!) from people reposting starter packs (thank you!!!) so I should probably reintroduce my game (again) - Solaire!

Daniel is sharing his starter pack of game devs that don't use AI, so I figured rather than just repost it, I would quote post it with my three no AI game dev starter packs.

Creating this no-ai indie games starter pack is one of the best things I ever did on BlueSky. Lots of great developers in here, making things with their own hands, some of whom I might not have found otherwise!! go.bsky.app/78u8M6Y

Im not only going to outlive every transphobic fossil in office but im gonna turn their grave into a gender neutral restroom when they die
Someday soon hes going to be over and trans folk will continue to exist and, hopefully, thrive, for as long as there are humans on this planet.

I've thrown out some optimistic dates about the Solaire demo coming out but realistically it'll probably be a couple months more until it's like, actually ready.
I don't think it'll be later than Q1 next year though, most of the meaty content is done I just want to give myself ample time to polish.

Wrote a few paragraphs bringing up an issue with my manager at work regarding some processes and the response I got was essentially “That’s a good point, let me get copilot to rephrase that and I’ll raise it with people”
Could you not just…send them what I wrote? Or put me in contact with them?

People making internal corporate power points try not to put completely pointless gen ai slop on every slide for no reason that makes it all look extremely unprofessional and shit challenge:
impossible, apparently.

Hey! Are you an indie dev who doesn't use gen AI and have a game you're currently promoting? I'm looking to make a starter pack and you could be in it! Reply below with a link to your game 👇 go.bsky.app/78u8M6Y

Figured I'd put this out there again!
Under 1k follower creatives! Mostly gamedevs and artists, but a few music folks in there too!
Still some space for more people, too!

Currently asking friends for feedback on WIP music for Solaire and I'm having to preface my strange instrument choices with the fact the brief I gave myself was "Battle bgm for when Queen Elizabeth comes back from the dead and oh no she's got a gun!!!!"

The main design goal of Solaire has shifted in the last few months from "make cool rpg with fun gameplay mechanics that add depth" to "use that to engineer as many scenarios for funny faces as possible" and like I hope there'll be like one or two that people other than me find really funny.

Solaire broke 30,000 wishlists over the weekend.
I don't know where people are still coming from, but I am glad people are excited for the game!
Thank you all so much! I'm working hard on getting the demo out soon :)
