I have gained knowledge: 1. NY is chilly in the dead of winter 2. the stompy boots work great in the snow (shoutout to a couple years of post-injury ankle strengthening work tho)

me leaning in cheekily toward the camera. I'm at a snowy train station and the fit features long blue hair, a huge brown Carhartt jacket, a black leather crossbody bag, cargo pants and stompy black platform boots with 5 inch heels

same scene as before but the camera is at what we used to call a "Dutch angle" and I'm standing tall lol

My partner's mom asked me to take photos of the last bouquets of roses her husband gave her before he passed suddenly last week during a heart diagnostic. He was an amazing husband to her and such a great dad to my partner, and I wish we had longer with him. May your memory be a blessing, Barry 🌹

first draft of Wife 🌸🥼🧪💫

Art in a soft, cute style. Kim is a blue-gray cat wearing spectacles and an orange jacket. He has a serious expression. A speech bubble above him indicates he's in conversation with a brown dog, Harry, who has a glorious moustache. Harry is wearing a green bathrobe and making a sly or suggestive face while offering Kim a shovel.

New business card design for GDC! Received a video of the prints today and they came out soooo pretty <3 Pro tip I heard when designing mine and Jake's cards: leave unlaminated blank space to write notes on so you and others can memo what you talked about / how you met / etc.

Meet Basil the Scavenger witch, aka the PC's best worst friend! #basilwitch #gamedev so far: 1: character design 2: concept art gotta learn how to: 3: build a 3D character model 4: use post-processing to convert lowpoly into pixel art style 5: animations 6: put in Unity LF tips/ideas/resources!

concept art of a character with tan skin and angular basil-green hair swooping over one eye and shaved above the ear. They're standing in a neutral three-quarters pose. A cyberpunk harness over a bright purple tunic buckles a giant steaming cauldron to their back. A green camping lantern hangs from the cauldron, illluminating the character from the side. They have sturdy gauntlets and boots, and a grimoire strapped to their hip in a holster.

I'll be at GDC all week this year! Lmk if you want to meet up, I'd love to chat with other devs and especially narrative designers/ directors! And if you're clued in to any afterparties, I'd love to attend some. Deets would be more than appreciated 🙏 #GDC #gamedev

not a smidge of photo editing necessary. Hawaii has been so beautiful

aloha! 🌺 loved this rainbow that greeted us for day 1 breakfast :) looking forward to a beautiful two weeks of seeing the islands, enjoying the water, and doing game dev with my partners! such a romantic atmosphere 💖

Did some finger painting on my flight to Hawaii! I'm planning to make 3D models of them and then use post processing to turn them into pixel art, a la Dead Cells. Basil is the witch you're contracted to keep alive. Bo and Yul are romanceable twin Snake spirit familiars! 💚🐍💚 #basilwitch

a tan person with green hair in a half bob, half side shave cut stands with a hand on one hip and a neutral expression. they're wearing a yellow crop sweater, brown hiking pants, and yellow sneakers.

two twin women with light skin and blue hair. Yul is more femme, with long curled hair in a part updo with space buns. she is wearing a hot pink halter shirt and hot pants, and she's sticking her tongue out. Bo is kinda tomboy femme with a smug expression, a sheer long sleeve top over a strappy black bra, and long green pants that tuck into her black boots.

We played the intro game to Arcs this weekend. Quit after 5 hours, so my gentleman cat won by default 😽 Might revisit the game, I hope it'll go faster in the future since we understand the rules now. I felt it's one of those games that very much wants a sherpa to teach the table

The in-game GUI is also by @leycalateart.bsky.social -- there are day and night modes, also with active and idle states for buttons. The choice boxes are animated! We didn't get 100% of the in-game GUI implemented, so stay tuned for even more customization in the future! #ThreePeachHill #devlog

night mode choice box example with the top choice being actively hovered

night mode text with a night mode version of the bedroom background

day mode dialogue box with multiple characters and an active speaker

The custom GUI design is the work of @leycalateart.bsky.social! these menu screens are gorgeous and made the game look so special🥺 most things have active, idle, and hover states! Jeanie Choi did the programming so everything looks just right. #ThreePeachHill #gamejam #gamedev #devlog

some screencaps from the game <3

anime girl with dark hair up in a bun, a slouchy black shirt, and a crossbody satchel with a red shoulder strap is centered in front of a hand painted illustration of a bookstore. the text reads "She's adorable. Beautiful, really. Her warm brown eyes sparkle and her dark hair is pulled up into a bun tied with a blue scarf. I have just a moment to take it all in before time freezes."

The text reads dialogue of Aya saying "Well, I know that now. I didn't know at the time! It was supposed to be a surprise." Aya is in the foreground, she's a fox girl with rosy pale skin, pink hair and a pink tail, and wears glasses, brown trousers, and a white shirt. She's talking to a tan calico cat girl in a sunhat and green jacket. the cat girl has a bell on her tail and is holding a pot of pink and blue hyacinths.

The scene is in night mode, with dark text boxes, in front of a dark red and black background. A pink fox with three tails and red horns is on the left, Erin the human girl is center in front of an image of a spiky-haired oni girl with a devilish smile who's reaching out a clawed hand toward Erin.
