Latter-day Saint, husband, father, brother, hobbyist artist, and developer. Maybe someday I'll actually release a solo game dev project. I know my art's not the shiniest, but I hope you like my stuff anyway!

I love the composition on this! The intermittent gold is a stellar touch.

Do you have any lore with your ocs or are these mostly for fun?

I'll probably release the next build to the general public because my plans for the next alpha are 1) do a visual overhaul to convey information better and 2) make a web build version so players don't have to download anything (I promise there's no virus but you never can tell these days lol)

Releasing a new game version - even if it's just an early alpha version - is somehow liberating, even though it's in a really raw state

Probably 'cause it lets you shift from "polish polish polish" to "okay, now I can work on that refactor that I've been putting off for forever"

In addition to making cores (red spaces) and pickups expire with time, I made the underlying grid turn red as the core gets closer to expiring! I think it really helps the player be aware of that limit without them darting their eyes over to the (currently) hard-to-see timer.

A still image of my falling-block puzzle game. The user interface has been overhauled and the grid now sits at the center of the screen instead of in the top-left corner.

Making some good progress in my little falling-block puzzle game:

- Window scaling
- Better UI
- Tons of backend improvements
- Soft drops implemented (gotta avoid those RSIs)

Aurelia, my witch original character, walking through a dark cave. Her wand is raised and lit, casting some shadows

Iโ€™m really enjoying drawing this witch #oc! Aureliaโ€™s from the same world as the angels that Iโ€™ve posted here in the past

A witch character with a huge brimmed hat, short hair, exposed midriff, and fairly tattered clothing. She has a stern look in her eye and wields a long, pointed wand. Her left eye is covered by a fringe of hair. The picture is only lineart

A witch #oc I designed yesterday! Right now her name is Aurelia.

Very much a WIP

As a hobbyist dev, I love seeing the WIP posts and images. They honestly inspire me more than the polished stuff because I can relate to it more

But at the same time I totally understand the desire to polish off just one more thing before sharing anything lol

A very cropped screenshot of a grid-based game. There is a red diamond surrounded by orange tiles and a few other icons scattered about. Below the grid is the text "0/50", "[cut off] until core expires," "[cut off]: Neutral," and "[Sc]ore: 183"

Really rough and early preview of my current @monogame.net project

Need to make it work now so I can make it pretty later!

Comic. Panels up to the 10-year point are grayed out. New panels since the Ten Years comic, which chronicles the first ten years of PERSON 1's journey with cancer: (1) [two people in bed] PERSON 1 (woman): One more chapter? PERSON 2 (man): Donโ€™t we both have to get up early? PERSON 1: Nnnnnggggh PERSON 2: Sure, good point. (2) [many people wearing masks, walking while looking at graphs on their phones] (3) [birds landing on people] PERSON 2 in beanie and scarf: Hah! They like *my* seeds best. PERSON 1 in scarf holding phone with a bird sitting on it: Wait, how do I take a picture of this one? (4) [two people rowing boats with tree landscape] (5) [Person 1 carries overflowing stack of things to Person 2 in bed] PERSON 1: I brought you honey lemon tea, more pillows, a cinnamon roll, Tylenol, another blanket, aโ€“ PERSON 2: It was just Appendicitis, Iโ€™m reallyโ€“ PERSON 1: *It is my turn to take care of you and I am going to do it right!* (6) [Two people in car] (7) [still in car) PERSON 1: Oh my god. PERSON 2: Oh my god. (8) [car driving] PERSON 1: Pull over! PERSON 2: I am! (9) [both people get out of car] (10) [Large colored panel of aurora borealis over water with both people looking on] (11) [Person 1 sits against tree while Person 2 lies on the ground] PERSON 1: Fifteen years. No sign of the cancer. (12) I *am* having some weird symptoms. Joint pain. Fatigue. I think Iโ€™m losing my close-up vision. PERSON 2: Yeah. Me too. (13) PERSON 2: I think weโ€™re getting old. (14) PERSON 1: I guess thatโ€™s okay. PERSON 2: Itโ€™s all I wanted.

Thank you very much! I do have a couple of game projects in the works, and I'd love to put the characters into a game someday, but I feel like I gotta build up my skill set for that first. So someday, but until then, mostly just for fun.

An angel from my setting. Her halo is four spikes surrounding a small orb. She has silver hair, lavendar eyes, and a pink aura about her. Her wings and arms are all pointy. She wears bright colors, but this is contrasted against a dark billowing background surrounding her.

A colored pencil drawing of a woman with extremely pale skin floating in a dark space amid lightning streaking across the sky. She has long black hair which billows up in two long tendrils, red eyes, and is missing a mouth. On her arms are three dark shear sleeves. She has a sleek black outfit on with two layered skirts and shiny black boots that go halfway up her thighs. From her back flow four reddish-purple tendrils with energy billowing inside them. She has an ominous purple aura surrounding her.
