CMS(Content management system). This sounds like "swomble barinkin'" to someone who isn't familiar with with tech lingo. The solution to this isn't a one sentence answer. I believe all developers need to work on ways across the board to fix these type of issues.

Importantly, talk to your users.2/2

Please read this tread. I try my best to be welcoming but it's always easier for me to say "I'm not a team player". I DO want to work with more designers and find out their needs. I use to professionally build websites that provided a CMS for non tech people to edit websites. 1/2

πŸ€”... Namco no longer has that patent so I can get away with it.

And I'd KILL to have a mini-game that popular.

πŸ˜… It took 35 seconds on my Google Pixel 4... I think I'm doing something wrong that's causing it to take that long. I'll get back to you all on this later.

The level generation in Plummies on mobile kills me. It takes about 35 seconds on my Google Pixel 9. Older phones who knows. πŸ˜…

That's the kinda thing keeping me from releasing it on mobile.

Shout out to all the amazing Black game developers, media, and creatives across every part of making games. I’m rooting for y’all year-round.

Go follow Black folks making games. We’re often ignored, then imitated. Tag some Black devs below and follow the ones you don’t know yet.

Don't fall for it y'all. It's trying to trick you into bringing it in your home. πŸ˜’ I ain't falling for that, again.

To be clear about Axolotl with a Gun:

Beneath its whimsical premise, the game is about endangered wildlife fighting back against tech corps and fascists who would destroy their home to make a quick buck. Beyond the cute little guys with guns, it's about defending the diversity of our communities.

Javascript code from loading a project. There is a comment that says "Seriously Troy! Document your code!" the following line is commented out code where a property would have been set. There's a follow up comment that says "The maniac who knows where you live!

Screenshot from the game Year of Frost. The main character is dressed in red, pink and white with a Santa hat on. Two characters are talking in the background. One is saying "I can't find anything else" and another is saying "I can upgrade this place"

A some point I broke the Christmas Holiday theme of Year of Frost. I'm fixing it today, but it's going to be kinda pointless because, it's only from Christmas Eve to New Years Day. Meaning... With all the NEW bugs I put in and have to patch out, I won't have it done in time.

I finished it last night. I've done it before but, I looked things up when I got stuck. I didn't want to end up just playing a walk through this time, so I didn't use YouTube. I tried to do everything from memory.

When people complain about exploring in my games I have to remember how I felt here.

Joy Cons were not made for NES games. :(

I died so many times from false presses, than I can count... πŸ€” I know Legend of Zelda has a death counter but, I also don't know how many of those are cause I'm not that good. πŸ˜…

After 5 years I finally had that wedding ceremony that I wanted. After a year of planning and not trying to take on any major projects, Im anxious to get back to game dev. Today I'm going to be working on getting my groove back to hopefully smooth out the wrinkles I've developed over the last year.

Time is the one thing I don't really have. πŸ˜” That's why it has taken me so long to get this far. But... Ya Boy isn't gonna give up. 😀

Purple button in an oddly mishaped black and white case. The legs aren't symmetrical and the plastic hair isnt symmetrical as well.

So, where am I? I made this awkward button connected to my temporary server. When pressed a voice says "Someone wants your attention" in my office. Currently used when dinner is ready so my wife doesn't yell across the apartment.

And that's only the things I can remember. It's always a case of I have to wait until I get the time to actually work on it, before I can make any changes/updates.
