Anyone have recommendations for sci-fi themed artists that I can commission artwork for a Patreon banner and social media icons?

I am looking to create a custom card frame for this game! Currently, I’ve just been using an MTG proxy maker to make my playtest versions of some cards. Anyone got recommendations on making/designing card frames? There’s several different color cards and there’s Ships, Structures, and Crew cards.

Been tinkering with pixel art lately. 100% these are made over a reference sprite sheet, but seems like decent enough practice starting out. I'm also testing out different color palettes. Haven't 100% settled on one yet though. #sprite #2d #indiedev #pixelart #knight #templar

While reversing commits, I almost lost a huge chunk of progress despite a soft reset description saying it wouldn’t lose real changes. But Unity said my scene changed so I saved it as a new and then reloaded. Would have lost hours of UI work if I didn’t save a new scene just then.

I’m not a professional software developer by any means. I barely understand how to use git. I pushed a commit after adding a bunch of sounds, 99.99% I won’t use but wanted to try them out. Git kept crashing when trying to push to origin. I already had multiple other commits staged too.

I’ve been on this for a week alone. Granted I spent two days just picking out start menu music and button sounds.. BUT STILL. I haven’t even gotten to having the game mode and difficulty select’s logic set up to have the menu allow you to even start a game yet 😭 And sure, I could churn out

You know what takes an excruciating amount of time? Setting up, configuring, and coding user interface. Making sure buttons flow through menus properly, rigging sounds to button clicks and cursor-entry, setting up a settings and audio menu and tying the sliders and toggles appropriately.

True. Trump and Vance are embarrassments to their positions. A bully does not a good leader make.

So I went ahead and put my first chapter of my story on Royal Road. I have the next 2 chapters scheduled to go live there as well. I’ve even commissioned a cover so it won’t just be using the website’s default. But that’s a few days out. www.royalroad.com/fiction/1072...

Do NOT use a VPN (and preferably a privacy-focused browser like Libre Wolfe or better yet, Tor) before NOT ACCESSING sites that will flood hr@opm.gov with junk newsletters and spam emails. Judging by how well they handle their web security, DOGE probably doesn’t have robust spam blockers.

So, I’ve written two different scenes for my book/story, out of order of where I left off. I knew I wanted these scenes to happen, and I was itching to get to them…. So I went ahead and jumped to them. I’ll go back and get the story caught up to these scenes now that I finally have them put to paper

My instinct is to make the case that USAID is extremely good, actually. But I feel like it’s more important to say, β€œWhat is happening is antagonistic to the foundational document of the nation.”

drastic rewrites that will be required as I get deeper into the story if/when I change certain details. Have you ever repeated a word so much that it loses meaning and it doesn’t look write when spelled out? That’s how I’m feeling about the whole thing…

So, terminology fix. Chapter 1 was changed to prologue. Chapters 1-2 written.. though they’re actively being edited as I continue writing into what is now chapter 3.

I’m a little concern with pacing and the timing of things, but that can get ironed out later. I’m partially worried about (1/2)
