There was an opportunity to give players context for why games release the way they do, but instead, it was designed to incite anger directed at a few devs.

Like many writers’ first, overly ambitious, semi-autobiographical works, Tinselfly is a story about its own creation. Setting: a sci-fi universe where spaceship travel is dying out, and wormh…

Even writing a note like "Started working on cut tool" only to replace it ten minutes later with "Finished cut tool" is helpful is that odd? does that matter? It helps.

Started using Evernote to keep daily logs of all of my projects and it's been a big productivity boost. Having an external memory upgrade is great.

“My daughter has the most important job in the city.” Oh, there are just no words. We Built This City by @mareasie in @clarkesworld is the most precious, bravest, and most alive story.

One step closer to lab grown meat, with no animals harmed in its production! I'm weirdly excited for this. https://t.co/E4MjvzNOql

This marks the first time any lab-grown meat has been given the US agency's safety stamp of approval in a major win for the burgeoning industry.

A creative career isn't a race. It's a hike. We're going different places and we're arriving at different times, but if we're very lucky, we get to walk together for parts of the path.

Wrapping up flying mini game for @tinselfly. Despite its simplicity, it has to be a complete game: you can start and stop. Save progress. See transitions between modes. So I'm in game jam mode now: trying to get it done quickly, but written well at a sustainable effort level.

More ordinary, solid shuttle is nearly done. Moved some pieces around and added new ones, to make it less like the flying camper from Spaceballs, and bring it more in line with other ships in this universe. Also trying to make it prettier. Still potatoey...but a pretty potato.

saw the original Top Gun for the first time to see what all the fuss was about. Found it meh as action, alternately inscrutable and gross as romance, underdeveloped as character study... .but... morbidly fascinating as an exploration of a strange, alien culture?

while being a cute fuzzy cat in Stray is great, what I love most about this game is how effortlessly navigable the environments are. Usually I get hopelessly lost in games, and there isn't even a map in this one. I must study this closely. and also have fun

New shuttle design. The old one (color) looked great by itself but was too large, too lacking in cargo space, too visually confusing when they visually overlap, and it really wasn't communicating its purpose: that it's a simple transport for ferrying researchers around.
