Tomorrow's going to be a special stream. I'm going to replay every single game I made with @3halvesgames.com as well as some pre-3HG titles I worked on too. I'll also tier list rank them and give insights into the development for each and every one! I hope to see you there! 7:00PM PT on June 11!

Thank you for all supporting me and 3 Halves Games over the years. As some of you know, I recently got a job wherein I am unable to continue personal game development. I wrote some thoughts I had about how we got here. It might not be the easiest read: 3halvesgames.com Thank you for everything. 💚

A more recent composition for the game, this time for the intro cutscene of Sincerely, Stampy! Still a WIP demo, but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless. I felt really happy with this one, particularly with the outro effect I managed to get. youtu.be/aiwDEuWJnRc

An old demo track I made for Sincerely, Stampy, well before I knew what the name of the game would be, back when I was learning how to create music in Logic Pro. I still enjoy this track quite a bit and wanted to polish it further for a full game release. Please enjoy the listen!

Game jam where you submit two builds. First, a game based on a theme. Then, the jam announces patch notes, and your second build must make the patch notes applicable to your game, however challenging that may be.

the adult content bans spreading through the en-speaking sphere now have already "happened" as such in japan, with visa/mastercard putting pressure on jp sites like dlsite & melonbooks. many sites ended up stopping visa/mastercard payments entirely to keep the adult content on their sites up.

A personal message regarding the de-indexing and de-listing of adult-oriented games: Sincerely, Stampy was planned to include optional light adult nudity. It still is planned to do that. As a person, I have matured when it comes to these topics. I want to include them in this game, so I will.

Screenshot of text from a games storefront page. Text reads as follows:

Mature Content Description
The developers describe the content like this:
This game contains optional scenarios that feature nude depictions of characters. The scenes do not depict genitalia. These scenes are completely optional and do not impact your progression in the game. You can configure the game in the settings to have an alternate version of these scenes without nudity.

Anyway, I put Sovereign Tea on sale again, on @itch.io, which is the preferred way to support my work, as it has the best revshare with me, while also supporting a platform that benefits many other indies. Less than $5 for a 20-30 hour campaign experience: 3hg.itch.io/sovereign-tea

You don't need generation for placeholder art and models in games. It's supposed to look ugly and obviously incorrect. If your placeholders look too real, they will become real, and you may not want that to happen. The adage of "don't prematurely optimize" is applicable for more than just code.

I was asked recently about my views regarding people who mod indie single-player games to replace some characters with their own. This happened with my game where somebody swapped the Tea Princesses with their furry OCs. I don't mind it at all. It's like using custom pieces for Monopoly. Have fun!!

I updated my itch page to include a collection for every single game of ours in chronological release order, because I realized there was no place to see that. So now you can play everything we've made, in order, since we started back in 2015! I put it at the bottom of my homepage here: 3hg.itch.io

Is it true that em-dashes are now frowned upon because of association with a certain generator? What about semicolons? I regularly use those in my writing and always have. You can look at Sovereign Tea for evidence of that if you need to. I would very much like to continue using em-dashes...

I have increased the number of save files in my game from a max 3 to a max 99! The code side of it wasn't hard. In fact, the code side never cared for a max cap to begin with! The real challenge was figuring out a UI and UX I liked for presenting so many possible save files.
