If you're waiting for #STALKER2 don't forget you can still play the original game in the series, S.T.A.C.K.E.R. : Nuclear Scavenger, which fell through a time-space anomaly into 1989: thapen.itch.io/stacker

I just released version 0.7 of A Painted Ocean, a square-rigged sailing simulator. Sail the oceans of the world, in a ship from 1804, with weather from 1980. #gamedev #solodev

Prototyping a game where you grow a tree

The actual map is text characters. I have blurred it slightly because otherwise the bluesky scaling algorithm does horrible things to it. Red is cities, and that's an airport.

I just finished the first pass at a procedural landscape generator for a flying game, Kerosene Thunder. The goal is realistic 1960s landscapes ~1000km across, at 500m resolution. This is a thread about how it works now. #procgen #textmode

Some things I made-

the chungus now encroacheth.

added a coin magnet relic as well because who doesn't like one of those.

The older cards in the series I made over a year ago and I now I want to revisit them and maybe add a second color 🤔

But I also want to make a full major arcana with different games so we'll see

i'm back on my ascii bs ^-^ i made a new addition to my homepage ellesho.me/page – a handy map! i was inspired design-wise by old text-based mud games. now u have another nav option to find your way around the pages easier

and here's a new blog post about it: ellesho.me/page/website...

Hello Bluesky ! I'm xena and I'm creating The Tower Of Tears. It's a survival-horror mixed in with some light dungeon crawling.

itch.io just quietly put up their new "Adult Content" standards: itch.io/docs/creators/faq#is-adult-content-allowed Read the whole page. The endgame of puritans using payment procs to censor content is to ban everything but the most anodyne art from sale, SFW or not. To erase the line between fantasy and reality, to then silence real voices. No victim of trauma allowed to make art talking about their experiences. No one allowed to make art to put a spotlight on systemic issues with society. No one allowed to bring powerful people to task for their evil deeds. No one allowed to feature even the mere *discussion* of sensitive topics in their work. What puritan activists *say* they want is to ban "child abuse"; what they *do* is ban anyone from *talking about it*.

There are famous books regularly assigned to students in literature classes that would fall under this ban. *The Bible* would be banned from sale for featuring, among other things, sexual violence and sex trafficking. Hell, there are *children's picture books* that would be banned from sale because everything "animal-related" has been lumped in with "bestiality". Puritan activists don't want sensitive topics in art, because that would allow people to call them out for the acts of *real* evil they have committed. That's why they wield the global power of American payment procs to dictate what legal products can or can't be sold: because anything else would squash their efforts before they can start. And it's why we must put a check on that power: it is absurd for a single-digit number of companies in *one nation* to be able to decide what *the world* can buy.

Since the last post I wrote on this subject, there is now a page you can visit with details and resources on how you can get involved in protecting queer creators and sex workers from further abuse by payment processors forcing puritan policies on platforms that threaten freedom of expression: yellat.money Follow the guidance on that site, call the payment processors, and do everything else you can do as the page suggests to make your voice heard. Because as this new "Adult Content" standard shows, it won't stop at queer creators and sex workers. This puritan censorship initiative will affect *everyone*. We will make it through. We've done so many times before. But it won't happen unless we *fight*. Stay strong.

Screenshot of the website yellat.money, titled: "Protect Queer Creators and Sex Workers! Tell Payment Processors to STOP!". It begins: "Get involved! Here are emails, phone numbers, petitions to use and tell payment processing companies that their policies threaten the livelihoods and safe spaces of queer creators and sex workers." It continues: "IMPORTANT: Wherever you vocalize your frustrations and concerns, be polite and chill when discussing in customer service lines or email inquiries. Do not harass or threaten individuals and workers. Please. If you're a Sex Worker, please avoid directly contacting the companies in question, as exposing details about your shop / services could result in them being deactivated by payment processors in question, especially PayPal and Stripe. Stay safe! When contacting Mastercard, do not let them direct you to their Concierge service." The screenshot ends on part of the site's list of payment processor phone numbers to call, including headquarters and regional phone numbers for Stripe and Mastercard.

My statement with regard to itch's new "Adult Content" standard as seen at: itch.io/docs/creators/faq#is-adult-content-allowed, as an artist with work hosted on that site.

Some screenshots from Send 1 on the Sharp MZ-700. A simple but fun space shooter where you need to kill the alien ships that are ejected from the big mothership. This was actually the first game I ever played on my own Sharp (an MZ-80A, so I didn't get the colours).
