Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Probably not Newsom, then, the man's a borderline republican who hangs out with right-wing podcasters, he's going to get ripped to shreds. But I don't think "Normie Dems" want a return to "normal" either, they want big sweeping changes, if not an outright sledgehammer to the system. 001
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 22/09/2026The last time Harris was in a competitive primary, she didn't do very well - perhaps a bigger national profile might help, but she still has loser stink. Newsrom is only a big name because he's California's governor and talks a big game when it comes to Trump, everyone else will tear him to shreds. 000
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I feel like the 2028 primary is gonna be a very different beast from 2020, partly due to the political environment. The base is at its most left-leaning in decades, socialism is slowly clawing itself back to viability and that "normal Democrat" brought us Trump 2 by not doing enough on everything. 100
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I honestly doubt it. Trump is MAGA, he's the god-king of the cult. The Republicans are too terrified of the power he wields over the maniacs who have demonstrated a willingness to murder politicians on both sides of politics in Trump's name. 020
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Dungeon Delights now has a SAGE 2026 trailer! This is my first time making a proper "professional" game trailer, especially in DaVinci Resolve, but I think it came out pretty well! Also, shout out to @kashdanmusic.bsky.social for composing the music used in the trailer! youtu.be/jowVcTOTYN8 #GameDevyoutu.beDungeon Delights SAGE 2026 TrailerYouTube video by Candescence 071
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Oh geez if you're actually gonna do all of them I hope I can update my demo before you get around to playing it, lmao, but yeah this year's got a lot of bangers for surestatic.klipy.comPiccolo Says 'All Of Them!?'ALT: Piccolo Says 'All Of Them!?' 000
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 12/09/2026And before anyone asks, yes, I still have choice paralysis when it comes to choosing the voice actors. I'm gonna try and choose today, but there's too many talented people and my anxiety doesn't help. Oh, geez. #GameDev 072
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 12/09/2026The SAGE 2026 Demo is live! I intend to update it later with some voice acting (hopefully) and bug fixes/tweaks. #SAGE #SAGE2026 #GameDev #GameDemo sonicfangameshq.com/forums/showc...sonicfangameshq.comDungeon Delights (SAGE 2026 demo)A fantasy-themed "FNAF-style" game, where you have to survive a night shift at a medieval fantasy restaurant... 092
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Not a surprise, islamophobia has been a core theme of the hate brigades that stalk Mamdani and El-Sayed. 000
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 08/09/2026I think the Ocarina of Time remake looks... okay? It's frankly a mixed bag. Young Link looks a bit off and not expressive enough, young Zelda looks hideous, and I don't mind the more detailed art direction, but I do think they need either a different tonemapper or dial up the contrast significantly. 000
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Also, side-note, currently inundated with auditions from VAs for the female characters for Dungeon Delights, and uh, I'm gonna have quite a bit of trouble choosing, lmao. 000
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Here's a week-old kinda-outdated gameplay video for Dungeon Delights, with some very early character art from @ravrous.bsky.social! (He does do NSFW art as well, just for disclosure's sake to be on the safe side, fyi.) youtu.be/JahjMZb0hwg?...youtu.beDungeon Delights Early WIP Demo FootageYouTube video by Candescence 010
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Been working on a fantasy-themed FNAF-style game prototype for little over a week, submitted a booth for this year's SAGE and now I need to somehow replace the placeholder character art by the time SAGE goes live in less than a month lol #ScreenshotSaturday #GameDev #SAGE2026 083
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Probably by making it too legally dicey for contractors to sign on to the project. It's just too public, whoever starts construction would immediately be sued. 0195
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 28/06/2026To be fair, the Bible isn't particularly consistent on that. Even scholars can't agree on whether, for example, Paul was against or tolerant of slavery (or who even wrote most of "his" writings). I mainly just stick to Jesus' teachings, at least those are fairly consistent and morally sensible. 000
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 28/06/2026You know, with all the Deltarune Chapter 5 chatter, I don't think I've seen anyone talk about these two seemingly unused enemies that appear in the second diner room if you return to it later: 010
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Hot take about Switch Sports Resort - Sportsmates aren't good, but Miis with the standard featureset were always pretty shit tbh, they're only tolerable if not good with the extended customization in Switch Miitopia/Tomodachi Life. Ultimate Angler had the perfect "updated Mii" look. 000
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Just finished Mina the Hollower (somehow managed to one-and-done the final boss), @yachtclubgames.bsky.social put out another fantastic game! I hope we see more of Mina and the world that they've created, it has so much potential and I feel like we've only gotten a relatively surface-level look in. 010
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Watched the premiere of The Amazing Digital Circus: The Last Act last night, it was fantastic and @gooseworx.bsky.social and @glitchprod.com hit it out of the park, bravo. I rarely go to see movies but my local theater was packed and had the most energized audience I've ever been a part of. 000
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 22/05/2026You don't owe anything to anyone, you and your crew made something amazing and should be proud of that fact. It sucks that you gotta deal with shitty "fans", but, sadly, that's nearly always an inevitability when dealing with large fandoms. 000
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 20/05/2026It's obvious the dev team put a lot of actual thought into the new style and character designs, there's so many new little details and while everyone cringed at Katt's new design at first it makes way more sense for her actual gang background and her solo merc occupation. 000
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I feel like the puppets were maybe an inspiration, but it's definitely more possible that the developers decided "hey, maybe we should actually make these alien characters actually look like animal-like aliens rather than humans with animal heads on top, that would be interesting". 100
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 20/05/2026Hearing about the "discourse" around the Gamoverse pilot makes me groan. You don't have to like a thing but bloody hell don't make it everyone else's problem. Some people seem genuinely offended that a ton of people happen to like a specific piece of media, as if it's some kind of sacrilege. 000
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 28/04/2026That is some very fine geo. Also, you definitely made her curvier, I'm pretty sure. 010
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 28/04/2026Not much to say other than "damn, she looks *good.*" 010

Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 03/02/2026All Bill needs to do is say Trump was on Epstein's island, under oath, and just watch as all hell breaks loose. Anything more damning than that would be icing on the cake. 060
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 27/01/2026Unreal, maybe with some Blender on the side if I need to use it for animating (though it might be easier to animate using a control rig in Unreal, depending). 110
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 26/01/2026Probably just Estella to start, and certainly rigged. 120
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 25/01/2026Also, looking for a 3D artist who does anime-style stuff for game and animation stuff, I'd mainly like to commission models for the sisters atm, but I'd also like to do other characters as well. Someone who can also do adult stuff and/or furry/alien characters would be nice but optional. 7131
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 25/01/2026With the web novel version of Henshin Sisters done, I guess there's now the hard part of reworking into something more suited for mainstream publication - probably removing the erotica, maybe reworking the structure, etc. I really need an editor. 020
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 25/01/2026The final chapters of Henshin Sisters plus the epilogue are done and posted.

Reposted by CandescenceNovelty Cistern @noveltycistern.bsky.social · 02/01/2026the thing that strikes me about the Grok "apology" thing is that even those of us who are against "AI" as it is marketed to us have trouble not falling into the basic fallacy that they are trying to sell us, i.e. There's A Little Guy In There 221671287

Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 23/11/2025Yeah, Rubio's throwing Witkoff under the bus here, no doubt about it. 040
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 07/11/2025To shunt this fight to right before the midterms, with the idea being that it could potentially supercharge what is likely to be a blue wave. It's essentially a live hand grenade that either goes off in the GOP's face now or later. 130
Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 07/11/2025You're missing the fact that the compromise would've kicked the can down the road right to before the midterms, where this whole fight would've started all over again with the GOP at a disadvantage. Schumer played a shockingly savvy hand that the GOP could not win against. 4643

Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 09/10/2025Nah, he left Bluesky because it it wasn't crypto enough for his liking and actually had centralized moderation (which he no likely). ATProtocol is more than mature enough, it's just that it actually takes work to spin up a new instance, unlike Mastodon. 020

Candescence @candescence.bsky.social · 20/09/2025So you completely ignored the feedback about the adult content censorship? The part about "consensual" content forces creators to walk around eggshells, "consent" shouldn't matter for entirely content without real people depicted. The new guidelines are too restrictive and ripe for abuse. 000
