I would have loved to have used tools but I ran out of shards haha I just needed a reliable way to avoid landing in the muck constantly so I figured sticking to the side and getting sucked in was the way to go

finally it’s over 😭😭
i don’t want to even know how many tries that took

Huge congrats to our pals at @outerloopgames.bsky.social on the big reveal of Dosa Divas at SGF!

another stylized aesthetic explosion experiment.

stylized discard instead of alphablend in fragment shader for a sharp contrast + glitchy pixel look.

Wife has been binging The Traitors so i've been backseat watching, just finished the season 1 Australian version - wow, my heart broke for Craig! Watching the realisation set in, the emotional devastation wash over him, communicated with just a look, a nod - so gut wrenching! Well played by Alex 👏

I finally get to a respite after a miserable week of horrible sleep and constant guzzling from the firehose of wretched world news, and the whole PSN is down 😭😭
