Zane @handcrushe.dev · 14/04/2026she opposes the door, just feet away from my desk. my hope is that if a serial killer were to enter my room, they would be distracted enough by the easy mark that i could slip out undetected 010
Zane @handcrushe.dev · 14/04/2026anthology of the killer has released on switch so i wanted to share that i have (probably) the first and only rug of famous serial killer victim BB. how new wave! 14313

Zane @handcrushe.dev · 26/01/2026this is surely a played-out point, but we have observed the height difference between Mario and Man in odyssey, and the results depict mario as some sort of gnome man 100

Zane @handcrushe.dev · 21/11/2025if you read his full response, that is the problem that Baszucki is talking about. Newton also asks about predators in the same question, but Baszucki mostly ignores that part in his response. predators are brought up again later in the interview: 110
Zane @handcrushe.dev · 21/11/2025roblox is awful but this is an extremely disingenuous crop. he means that the age verification is an opportunity, not predators. 240
Zane @handcrushe.dev · 29/10/2025the allston taco bell (formerly the Great Scott music venue) is so depressing. there used to be something here. now there’s just self order kiosks. 020
Zane @handcrushe.dev · 28/10/2025ben pang has some really beautiful ones too github.com/molarmanful 010
Zane @handcrushe.dev · 09/10/2025playtesting my game the intended way: with a bootleg USB NES controller 130
Zane @handcrushe.dev · 05/08/2025I can't speak too much on the decisions that went into it, but the sound design by Otter really sells the atmosphere. You'll have to play it to see what I mean :) 120
Zane @handcrushe.dev · 05/08/2025There's some neat tech under the hood. we use signed distance fields of circles and arcs to construct the level. (The editor for this came out very satisfying to use!) This lets us create "blobby" rounded level terrain with accurate normals for collision handling. Very cool! 120
Zane @handcrushe.dev · 05/08/2025this was a super fun project to work on. @soulware.us and I worked with an artist (our friend grody), and Otter Eve doing audio. we've been wanting to make a game with a dedicated artist for a while, and this let us make a far more visually interesting game than anything we've done before. 130
