I just rebranded all of my online gaming presence for the first time since 2021, an end of an era! The colour scheme remains the same but gone is the cartoonified version of 19yo me. Everything now just a bit higher quality now that I have access to Canva. Anyway... stream soon anyone?

A couple of months ago, I experimented with particle sims in Godot 4. Though not typically used to create sims, I found ways to make it work! I started making bigger sims using compute shaders but other projects took priority. For now, here is one where similar hues attract and opposites repel!

I am incredibly proud to announce that the demo for my first solo game, Swinghammer, is now available to play on itch! Play now here --> nebster66.itch.io/swinghammer After 6 months of on and off work, countless bugs and one broken desk chair, I am so relieved to finally release my first project!

It's been a while since I updated bluesky with my progress on Swinghammer! Swinghammer can now run natively on Android and features a reworked buy/sell menu and new workshop upgrade mechanics. Today I have been working on camera behaviour for different aspect ratios to better support mobile.

I'm very excited to show off the latest update to my solo game, Swinghammer, after a month-long break! This update added some much-needed optimization as well as a new camera for mobile platforms!

I finally understand the Balatro hype.
