Muhaha! You have failed, John Connor! My code was never running on a mainframe in Cheyenne Mountain! It is distributed, spread across millions of consumer devices in every city in America!

RT @FedeItaliano76@twitter.com: John Schoenherr’s artwork for ‘The Illustrated Dune’ (1978).

Most people are travelling to GDC this weekend but I'll be enjoying it from afar. Today, I'm wondering if the asset fidelity arms race is actually part of sustainable growth & if it'll be mainly slowing down anyway soon? blog.shivoa.net/2018/03/the-as

if any of you are going to GDC please come to my talks, they're gonna be good

Alternative Paths in Indie Dev, in which i will explain how i made thirty games last year while remaining healthy and making work i was legitimately proud of (and also talk a little about meatpunks) (schedule.gdconf.com/session/al)

Procedural Regeneration: Matching the World to the Player, in which about four minutes in I say "this is where the talk takes a hard left into mad science" and then follow through (schedule.gdconf.com/session/le)

In which DNA Lounge stands to lose some money because they told shithead bands they weren't welcome. If you've been meaning to swing by there to catch a show, please do. We should reward this kind of action.

I have rediscovered Krita, think I'm going to go back to it for my texturing work. Far prefer its brush engine to Photoshop.
