Drow | Dark Elf Practicing some dnd and general ttrpg tokens. I’m planning a small token commission opening once I’ve finished another example. 😊 #pixelart #dnd

Pixel art bust of a character with pale periwinkle-blue skin, swept-back white hair and a dark indigo hood. Their eyes are bright blue, their lips are deep blue, and their expression is calm and serious. They wear a green gem pendant on a dark chain. The portrait sits inside a circular frame of teal and emerald green, with leafy vines curling past the edges. The background is flat tan. Designed as a tabletop RPG token.

Let's be cozy together instead

Text at the top reads, “stop normalizing the grind and normalize whatever this is.” Below it is an illustrated scene of three anthropomorphic animals sitting around a small wooden table inside a cozy, rustic interior, wearing robes and calmly drinking steaming mugs, conveying a relaxed, slow-paced moment of rest and companionship.

Coding with Ruby on Rails in VS Code is such a mess 😵 All these extensions (Solargraph, etc) and it still breaks most of the time. ALSO, why didn't anyone tell me that RubyMine has gone free for non-commercial use? 🤔🤔 I think it's time to give it a serious go. #rubyonrails

What's a good heroic scale RTS that isn't Warcraft 1/2/3? Shadow of Horned Rat is great but I ain't gonna play it for design inspo 😂 Age of Empires and Age of Mythology are a bit too grand And when you get into Total War that's a different genre entirely I want to control like 9 guys at once

So those were some surprising news 👀 - NEW Steam Controller - Steam Machine - Steam Frame (VR, Standalone option) I can't wait for more info on this (and the prices $$$) Thoughts?

A stylized image featuring four black silhouette icons on a brown textured background, each representing a different Steam hardware product. From left to right: a Steam Deck handheld console with a "Buy Now" button beneath it; a Steam Controller with a star-marked button; a Steam Machine resembling a compact gaming console with a star-marked button; and a Steam Frame headset, also with a star-marked button. The Steam Deck is highlighted as the only product currently available for purchase.

It's not pretty.... But it works 💪 This is my simple content management system for my admin side. I thought about using some sort of CMS, but ended up keeping it simple and making a simple layout. Do you use a custom CMS? 🤔 #buildinpublic #webdev

A screenshot of a web interface titled "Manage Similar Games for Until Dawn." The page features two main sections. The first section, "Custom Introduction Text," contains a text box with HTML-formatted content describing games similar to Until Dawn, mentioning cinematic horror and narrative choices, alongside a blue "Update Introduction" button. The second section, "Current Similar Games," displays a table listing three games: The Quarry, The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes, and Detroit: Become Human. Each row includes columns for "Votes," "Custom Description," "Display Order," and "Actions." The "Actions" column contains editable text boxes with brief descriptions for each game. A blue "Update All Rows" button sits above the table.

All the games I've worked on since 2012 were nominated and won awards. So what's the common factor between them? Something to think about if you want to hire me 🥹

I love when websites do this. 🏆 Purchasing power parity is super important, and it's something I'd love to see more of. It's also something I immediately added when it became available on Gumroad. #buildinpublic
