We're playing in a group of 9 and it's very chaotic - sometimes you miss out on puzzles. It's a good time but a nice relaxed duo playthrough might have its own charms!

I'm gonna be at Render File tonight in Toronto! They're a band that improvises music to live gameplay. It's a great vibe and I'm thrilled they chose A Short Hike for tonight ☺️ www.eventbrite.ca/e/strings-sp...

Ugh. This is a disaster for Toronto. Ripping out protected bike lanes on Bloor Street, Yonge Street, and University Ave will gut the city's bike network. Crashes will increase. And no, traffic will not be faster.

Toronto devs are having their own "Barbenheimer" moment today. Congrats to @softrains.bsky.social & @kittencupstudio.bsky.social on the launches of Ambrosia Sky & Capy Castaway! One's a melancholic sci-fi clean 'em up, the other an adorable animal adventure, & both are absolutely worth your time. 🍁

Yeah! I I used this built-in edge detection shader for A Short Hike: docs.unity3d.com/530/Document... If you want to peek at the code for it, you can download the shader from this forum post: discussions.unity.com/t/image-effe... I used it SobelDepth mode - see the "fragDCheap" HLSL function.

I get the sense from the organizers I've spoke to that it takes quite a bit to pull off at all, I wonder if a larger size is beyond their funding. But it is a shame I had to avoid entire aisles all together. It would be nice if next year they could use some of the surrounding rooms.

Panel 1: Shen is looking cute, with his big sparkly green eyes, cupping his hands together and resting them against his right cheek while tilting his head the other way. He says, to a character in the foreground (the messy blonde haired "Pro Hater" from some of my previous comics), "You know, every grudge you hold is like a weight upon your heart."

Panel 2: We get an x-ray looking into the pro hater's heart. It is surrounded by heavy dumbells and barbells, and has weights attached to its legs and arms like Rock Lee from Naruto. It is curling a dumbell with its right hand with a tense expression.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a man in business attire is disrobing and walking down a road away from a city, passing a sign that says “CITY LIMITS”. A narrative caption reads, “I left society behind.” Panel 2: it continues, “I became one with the meerkats.” The man is nude and wearing face and body paint and fake ears to look like a meerkat. He is posed next to a family of meerkats on a dirt mound. Panel 3: one of the meerkats is checking the mailbox outside their burrow, says “this came for you, bro” and hands the man an envelope. The man examines the envelope which reads “URGENT NOTICE FROM I.R.S.”
