Thinking about returning to indie dev streaming.

I haven't been because what I've been working on lately is the trailers and pitch decks. But honestly, why not stream making those? It's probably the most important part of the whole process.

Congrats on how it's been going. It's been a real boost to see as a VR dev.

I should just pick a game in my steam that no one plays and leave it running all the time just to have something that i would have 7000 hours in that raises an eyebrow or two

I've managed to convince some friends who've never played FFT that when Ivalice Chronicles comes out we're going to be doing it like a DnD campaign with each of us getting a unit

in all seriousness kinda yeah, but I'm sort of approaching with a mix at the moment. I'm actually really happy with the bit i do at the start. trailer goes over that shooting farther targets, cutting cleaner, throwing items closer to things, all do more damage; which i agree is kind of the big pull

Making the trailer for ValoR Tactics and I'm constantly torn between making something that looks more modern or just remaking the unit introduction from final fantasy tactics

When the Final Fantasy Tactics remake got announced my phone got blown up with so many notifications I thought someone died

Bouncy's an INCREDIBLE animator and its been a huge pleasure to help produce this. We're nearing completion of the project and I couldn't be happier with it.

indie game where if the floor falls out from under you you only start falling after you look down like in looney tunes

This is still the single coolest way to build a deck

Mind me asking how you got a hold of Nintendo? I signed up for the Nintendo developer portal but it's been radio silence since emailing them

the hand gestures are is actually so clever. no reaching for a button that spawned in an awkward spot, or having too much to press. its just all the commands with the same physical space

Really looking forward to this. Felt like design space in fighting game single player was a little sparse, but having the ability to utterly break the game with custom and upgradable movesets is such a fun thing to explore. I was actually prototyping something similar but for a platform fighter

absolutely incredible work. reminds me of t3ssel8r's unity stuff. i didn't know you could do a 3d pixel art render pipeline in gamemaker, that's insane.
