Killer Inn has released into Early Access today.
Shout me if you play it and I can stop by and say hello.
store.steampowered.com/app/1598230/...

I think I will aim for a Wednesday stream? We'll see.

For Website:
- If I navigate to another page via the header links while editing, should probably switch me to editing that page (maybe with a warning if I haven't saved)

For memberships:
- Allow only certain member tiers to use the messaging feature instead of just an enable / disable toggle.

Some more for website design:
- Transparent header on more than just the homepage, and ability to change the background to something different on each page.
- Set different headers to different colors (Heading 1,2,3,4,etc)

Copying and pasting website sections from one page to another!! A more robust copy/paste system and not just duplicating a section on the same page 🙏

It's pretty unlikely that I will play the game myself for fun or on stream. I've played it quite a lot for work, for a very long time. Trust me, you don't want to see me play anyways. I am not good at it. 😆

I don't think my position at the company is important but I will answer it if asked.

I will probably keep my own streams related to my own projects [CEROS / A Game of Chez novel], but I don't mind answering questions if they come up in my chat / streams.

I don't mind if you share this specific info on/off stream: That I am part of the [development team] that worked on [KI / Killer Inn], specifically that I work at [Tactic Studios].

I don't usually speak about it often, but during release time I don't mind this information circulating.

For anyone who ends up playing KI on release:

Feel free to poke me on Discord or @ me on any socials if you stream it! If I have time I can stop by and say hi / answer SOME questions (I may decline to answer certain things to be safe due to NDA)

Branding Received. 👀
Some stuff is still in progress but all the major pieces have arrived. I've started implementing it slowly across the board, and with this, I will soft launch CEROS in February.

Going to see what I get done this weekend, but possible stream next week! www.twitch.tv/msmaddhatt

Doin me a concern mom.

Restocking my reward stash (that might be 10 confetti cannons in those boxes).

its a bag of marshmallows directly in my mouth

You know I don't do things halfway. I go all in and boy howdy am I going all in on this. 🤠

I am alive!!

I swear to you guys I am COOKING in the background!! Soon™

Do you think downloading Love and Deepspace and having hot anime men breathe heavily in my ear will reduce my stress levels?

CEROS and personal branding stuff is next on the docket and I get to see what she's been cooking up tomorrow morning. 👀

CEROS will stay a mystery until early 2026, but it's going to be well worth it.

I haven't just straight up posted the new character art for the book because it feels like my pile of gold and I want people to look at it but also like hisssss don't touch it it's MINE you know?

It's just so beautiful. Making some more promos with it this weekend x

I think I lean more towards illustrations, fantasy/horror, but yea I just want dark spooky cool art on my feed and it's getting there but I also get a lot of overseas artists (which is also cool!)

But I know my Canadians are on here somewhere 😤

I really badly want to find some Canadian artists on here?? Art with dark vibes. 🇨🇦🖤

It's sooo peaceful on here it's crazy

Therapy Diaries: therapist asked me how I felt after the session and I said I felt like I needed to go to Starbucks for a little treat.

Therapist also asked me what I would like to take into the next week to think about and I said I would like to leave it all here please and take none of it.

The first official character art not done by me is in the rendering stages and MMmmmmmmAAHHHHHHHHH.

I will hopefully be launching an official ARC (Advance Reader Copies) campaign early 2026 to get some early reviews and preorders, so keep an eye out for that, and follow on Insta if you haven't already for book content!

I think I'm going to have a much easier time pitching the 2nd book to agents for multiple reasons.

For now I'm focused on Insta content / building my following there, and slowly chipping at these book jobs that need to get done before launch.

Also book update I am crossing my fingers for Spring 2026??

There's still quite a lot I need to do. I think I've abandoned the idea of a lit agent /publisher for the debut novel, so I'm funding everything myself, but we're well on our way!

Told my therapist a quick rambled summary of my book because it came up and I could not tell based on her wide-eyed expression whether she was super into it and wanted to read it, or wildly concerned for my mental health.

It was one or the other. Did not confirm.
