Oh wow, weโ€˜re more than lucky to have him and his awesome animal studies.

I'm pretty sure there are still some 234x60 px clan banners from old browser games somewhere on one of my hard drives...

Gamedev is fine, no worries.

I saw a documentary about the vagus nerve the other night. If I recall correctly, the benefits of breathing exercises were scientifically backed, yes.

Awesome. Since we canโ€™t change #3 as game devs, letโ€™s start by disabling social media notifications.
Stomach breathing is already part of the daily routine, I assume?

They sound alike! ๐Ÿ˜œ
I guess thereโ€™s nothing wrong with your brain. Try these three things first:

-7-8h of sleep a night
-daily magnesium (the good kind like citrate)
-a steady income.

Yours truthfully,

Haha! I certainly should try... Fortunately Brendan Body already did the heavy lifting for our community:

Thanks to him, I discovered The Mane Quest. What an awesome resource! Keep up the awesome work!
We desperately need something like this for birds. 98% of birds in games fly wrong ๐Ÿ˜„.

Please remember to repost and like stuff you see on here. If you have enough energy maybe even leave a nice comment. That will always make someone's day.

Maybe it's just me but I feel like I'm seeing a lot less of that in the #gamedev space compared to last year.

A little #gamedev trick- varying pitch to suggest fullness.

Loving the bowl cut! Donโ€™t you need five different silhouettes anyway? So oneโ€™s gotta be one, right?

I started working on giving Makena a friend! This is the second of the five ghost club girls.
I gave her a bowl cut for fun but uh... I actually kinda like it?
Is it a look or do I need sleep?

Thank you to everyone who sent in a voice acting application! The talent was incredible, and the decision was really tough. I listened to every single submission and took notes.
