Yesterday marks the first time I had ever streamed content entirely solo before. I felt stiff, awkward, nervous.

But more than anything I felt good. I might make it a regular thing.

That means there'll be announcement posts, but I'll tag them so you can filter them outta the feed

Thanks. πŸ‘

Shoni Island on Steam Settle, build, and survive on the enigmatic Shoni Island. Manage quirky NPCs, farm, and appease four unpredictable gods. Solve tricky puzzles, uncover hidden secrets, and balance chill with challenge ...

Hey folks.

I'm not affiliated with the nice people at Golden Horde Studios. But they requested people review and critique their demo for Shoni Island. I'll send out a review review another time, but it's fun, once you get past the super-early-build bugs. πŸ‘

Can I just, like, ASK people to call me a certified leaker? It's not like I can post a million predictions on 4chan (rest in piss) to gain notoriety

Here's a prediction for you - Nintendo is gonna release a DS emulator on NSO and they'll remake Wario: Master of Disguise

not gonna lie, didn't see "Mario Kart Priceout" on anyone's bingo cards for this year

so are those priced out by Dougie B. gonna end up gentrifying Sonic Racing: The New One that I Forgot the Name of?

also what the fuck is the point of a "game key cart"

Hopefully my Fascinating One-Liner Training (trademark pending) can be put to good use here

Or at least be good for a laugh or two, I'm not picky

Media Discourse, the Culture War, and a Little Bit of the Stupid Pill Things are weird right now, especially in gaming. But why is that? I don’t think you’re gonna magically find out, but feel free to check out my thoughts on it.

Heya, folks. Gonna cash in on whatever goodwill I've fostered thus far, all sneaky-like. Just make sure you don't tell anyone. I have a Wordpress blog up, and it also has my first rambly-thought essay. Check it (if you want to):

Y'all ain't ready for my Community Guy era. Just you wait. Like, a few more days? Maybe? Probably. Safe to assume, yeah.

On the real, I'm not getting paid (yet), but it's nice to be able to farm experience so I can make games a real career. Best of luck to all of you, too.

oh, I can also do English-Spanish (LatAm) localization and proofreading. despite my preference for no caps and simpler language, I'm actually a force to be reckoned with when it comes to editing

anyone know some cool #indiedev studios that

a. need a junior-level writer/narrative designer and
b. are open to either cold emails or Bluesky dms for contact

preferably remote, based in the US to avoid too many timezone issues

portfolio available upon request, naturally πŸ‘

worst part about applying to a big chunk of really cool jobs using your really cool resume and really cool portfolio is the barrage of not-so-cool rejection emails that say "sorry, your really cool stuff isn't really cool enough" in the most boilerplate uncool language possible

A small paragraph from a portfolio review that says "Hey Humberto! (Humberto being the poster) Thanks for sending your portfolio along. It's a really great start and I really enjoyed my time with it. I've added a couple notes below, with page numbers to lead you in. Obviously none of these are prescriptive, but hope they help!"

Steps are difficult, but knowing you're headed in the right direction goes a long way.

I want to more than sincerely thank @sweetbaby.bsky.social and specifically Leah, who I had/have been in contact with, for taking the time to review my writing portfolio

30 million users is crazy, i'm just glad i have my stupid little idiot corner where i can look at fun games, fun people, and not a crap-a-lanche of hate and bigotry

it's no coincidence that this is the longest i've been "active" on a social media site

thank you for being you, bluesky πŸ‘

heya folks, signal boosting myself here

i want to foster an environment of folks all willing to help one another get experience in #gamedev (not just me)

so if you've got an #indiegame you're working on, and you need some help of any kind, and you see this, feel free to self-promote

i'll start by listing things i'm familiar with:

writing (characters, narrative, descriptive text)
editing ^
sound mixing with Reaper
vague 3d modeling in Maya and Zbrush
C++, Java, Python (all very basic level)

that's... more than i thought, hmmm

heya #gamedev folks:
