Good idea! This is now called distraction mode - draw while this frickin' thing spins around a bunch.

Art crimes are on hold, there's coding crimes to deal with first.

This is a great song. I wish I'd played katamari damacy - it looked like bizarre fun.

Also, hooking my game up to play this song when the spinning snag comes up. Nintendo should be cool with that, right?

I'm like fine, if this is worrying or something - but also

idk man I just am feeling the need to yell into the void in some kind of meaningful way and this is the best I've got

I would describe my mental state as
"big-time-fucked-up"
at the moment.

New snag for Chicken Scratch where you can only see part of the screen while drawing/guessing.

The pricepoint is going to be relatively low (in the $5-7 range). We also want to do some kind of bundle where you could buy a set of copies for a lower price. And we're also considering having a demo where a meaningful slice of the game would be available.

At the moment we're leaning towards each player needing to own the game for the full experience - but we have some plans in the pipeline to help with making it easier to pitch to a group of friends to play.

A new feature has just been added...

The spawn rates are a little high on this WIP #indiegame but I wanted to show that breaking crates is fun for #screenshotSaturday!

I was super excited about Sable when I saw the original trailer. Was really disappointing to see that the reviews seemed pretty mixed.

LAN connection stuff for games truly feels like old computer sorcery.

It feels like I shouldn't be able to connect two copies of my game this way - but I'm not going to complain about it.

Hey #PitchYaGame! In Deep Fog Signals you're stuck in an outpost deep in a sea of toxic fog & oxygen is running out. Choose which transmissions to decode with scarce bandwidth, coordinate unstable crewmates, do science with chunky devices & interpret strange signals from the deep 📡 #indie #horror
