Professor Grobo's Involuntary Quiz Time by miomancer Can you answer all 15 questions? No. You can't.

itch is up again so now you have to play my game sorry miomancer.itch.io/professor-gr...

shameless self-promotion implies the existence of shameful self-promotion. why would you be ashamed of promoting something you’ve made? aren’t you proud of it? anyway please look forward to me posting about my new game for a third time once itch is back up

i have 13 games on my itch page now which is pretty unlucky so i must quickly make another game before i die from curses

oof, thanks for letting me me know. i saw the search feature wasn’t working on bluesky today so i figured it might be something like that

did itch dot io shut down the second i posted this? god must really hate mio

posting this game i just made again while my heart is still full of love

i made a silly quiz game about a fictional universe you know nothing about (yet) miomancer.itch.io/professor-gr...

crazy coincidence LOL i just thought to myself "what is the opposite of that"

just a vile treacherous Videogame that lies and steals. like Void Stranger for the steam machine (2026)

i have a checklist where i have 30 minutes a day of 1) programming 2) art 3) music production and 4) playing games, and the idea is that it gets me to START those things, which leads to me spending longer on them. i rarely do them all each day, but the point is to do a variety of things

or drawing a single line rather than drawing an entire artwork. the activation energy to do those things is much lower, but it also lowers the activation energy of continuing by a LOT

for me, it’s just STARTING these things that’s hard, but i enjoy them once i get going. if that’s true for you as well, then i would recommend lowering the bar of performing the activity. for example, “playing a video game” feels like work, but just turning on a console? that’s way easier

one time someone explained in detail how they were going through a really rough time and after they finished i accidentally said “wow that’s so cool!” so i get it. i think it cheered them up a little because it was so stupid tho

just went to make sure i was muted before drinking a sip of water. i am not in a call

doing a #gamedev thing! i was gonna keep this game secret until release but someone's blog post made me change my mind

i am already this but for game development and it is perhaps my most fatal of flaws

i could never be a youtube because i would refuse to make thumbnails of myself making a stupid face so no one would watch my videos

when planning games i usually just make a short list of Goals and write down a bunch of Ideas for how to achieve them. i make sections for different aspects of the game but it’s less like a checklist and more just not wanting to forget what i’ve already come up with lol

it kinda sucks because a lot of the time the point of my games is a surprise and i want players to experience it as that. maybe i just make unmarketable games, not because they’re bad but because marketing them defeats the point

i pretty much always just post a link to the game and say “play it pls!” without actually SHOWING the game because i want people to go in blind. but i think that stops people from going in at all

i’m always torn between wanting to share progress on my projects and wanting it to be a surprise. it depends on the type of project but most of what i like making leans towards “it should be a surprise”. but idk how people would find out about it if i don’t post stuff from it… what a pickle

i would happily trade the capital incentives that drive massive marvel movie projects for groups of people who believe in each other to be able to make cool stuff at a smaller scale. it sucks thinking about all the passion projects that could have been if people had the chance to thrive

i can’t say nintendo games are poorly made or anything (they employ plenty of talented devs), but they’re not FOR you

metroid prime 4 is yet another reminder that if you happen to enjoy a modern nintendo game, that my friend is a happy coincidence, a chance byproduct of whatever nintendo has been doing for the past decade

it really feels like conversations that would happen in a dream

i wish i understood japanese so i could figure out whether touhou dialogue is actually that insane or if it’s just Like That in the english transation

all super mario bros checkpoint recoveries high quality

what if you wanted to make games,... but god said, Curse of Wrist Pain
