Is it wise to make a game where you can shit yourself? Should we make a romanceable toilet?
Hygiene is the theme of this month's dev update.

Esc Trip is a non-linear oddball vacation sim with a cute sticker scrapbook aesthetic.
It's a labor of love from two indie devs. Please share and/or wishlist if this looks like your jam.

Just a little passion project I've been working on - a Metroidvania search engine :) There's a lot of disagreement in what fits the classification, so my site allows you to filter on the features you love (or hate!)

In 2 weeks I'll have a dev update video for Esc Trip that I'm gonna be so proud of. This 90's mall is so much fun!

Maybe House of Leaves isn't the best bedtime reading choice when I'm on the verge of mental breakdown 🤔

Fuck, job hunting is miserable. I've removed my first name from resumes and LinkedIn. Trying to avoid getting insta-filtered for the crime of being a really fucking good software engineer but also a woman over 45, which is nigh-unforgivable in many circles

We were forced to change our game name, we've also added a movie theater, and save select screen to our game.
Lemme know what you think of Esc Trip's latest!

My indie game Esc World now has a cute inventory system that functions even while you move about the city.
Also got the city's police station and prison starting to go in.
Thanks as always to @southpawgeek.com for the code work.

Alien: Resurrection was not great.
However, it filled in a LOT of missing context for an incredible Super Metroid hack I played last year called VITALITY. It took a huge amount of inspiration from this movie specifically.

Alien 3 was... lots of inexplicable behavior, and I've also found out there's an Assembly Cut that changes a bunch of story stuff. Not sure I want to sit through another 2.5 hours of it anytime soon, though 😵💫
I didn't hate it, but also didn't love it.

This week's movies so far:
Alien (1979)
Death to Smoochy (2002)
Deadpool vs. Wolverine (2024)
Also looking forward to having next week off. No big plans, but hopefully I can think of some creative venture to spend some time on.

I was slicing a bagel open this morning while thinking about how often people injure themselves doing so. Then my hand slipped. I am now a statistic

For those who don't know, I had a very special pet sparrow named Beebee. I found him in a parking lot after he'd fallen out of his nest. I rescued him, and he lived for over 9 years. I lost him in the beginning of October. This is a quick little 1-bit drawing of him.

Maybe my body wants a biphasic sleep schedule or something. Or I'm a finely tuned machine that only needs 5 hrs of sleep.
