A classic Grandfather Stalk bail up. It’ll be expensive to produce, but should we make this so it actually takes all night in real life to get through? I mean, think about the immersion!
Got the trophy, but still not quite finished with Fantasy Life i. It’s not as good as the old DS game, but I’ve still enjoyed my time with it.
I am so happy with this little metal Morgana statue I picked up in Tokyo at the SEGA store. So much cool Persona stuff, I had to exercise restraint!
Absolutely loved Bitsummit in Kyoto, despite getting pretty smashed by food poisoning on arrival in Japan. Looking forward to getting down again and actually being able to hit more of it!
Ugh AI written ad copy is so off-putting. This pattern is probably my most hated one.
A little work in progress on my blood angel captain for my space marines kill team.
Some absolute classics in this tub, I really need somewhere I can display all this stuff rather than storing it all away!
Makes me think of the game The Dig, which had a very compelling purple pallete.
Ahh man I finally beat that brutal Astrobot stage to get the full completion. What an undertaking!
it's been hot minute since I last painted af figurine. now just 33 more to go...
Behold my greybox UI. I promise this will look very different later!
Coding a big ol' delicious stats tracker to my game so I can do all sorts of fun things based on obscure choices the player has made.
A well-calculated move. Straight out of Sun Tzu's classic text, 'The Art of War.' Or my own masterwork: Zapp Brannigan's Big Book of War
Had to get our little supermarket doors working right, can't be working on a build without that lil satisfying animation.
Want to role play as an LLM? I had an ‘AI’ draw me this delightful picture. yourslopbores.me
Married 10 years today. Absolutely flown by and I’ve never felt happier.
Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed. (mine may be the wrong vibes to be fair)
So my son said they had ‘space ice-cream’ at school and I got a sudden flashback to these…
A little trip down to the market earlier today and picked up this big old box of fruit and veg for $35.
bought my first manga on a whim while in a country town bookstore.
I have a lot that no-one remembers, but this was one of my more obscure all timers on the C64 back in the day. (it was between this and Adventure Game Construction Set)
Merry Christmas ya’ll! 🎄 May all your games ship bug-free, and all your ideas be winners.
Managed to smoke three chickens, carrots and apricots today. Ready for Christmas:)
