keep the old ways alive. when nobody else remembers how, you will still be creating worlds, even as the internet is killed.

a steam review for satryn deluxe that reads:

reviews like this give me so much life.
a steam review for Merp in Merpworld that reads:

"For the longest time, my favorite games have been the same. My top three have been Slime Rancher, A Hat in Time, and Celeste for maybe five years now. Nothing has ever really come close to topping those three games for me for the longest time, and I kinda thought the creation of games with that much heart and soul poured into them had become a lost art. I'm happy to say I was wrong. This has reached the spot of my second favorite game of all time. I can't say what exactly about this game makes me love it so much, but it's just amazing."

+ a lovely depiction of the cast by @lurnoise.bsky.social. (please hire her!)
an illustration by lurnoise.com depicting the Former, with flowing cyan hair, white binder, and blue cloak, holding her lovers, the Attractor, in a flowing yellow dress with red sash, and the Breaker, barely donning a flowing orange cape.

below sit their children, a fiber sprite (the titular Merp,) and 2 water sprites from Satryn.

the family is set amidst a stellar nebula.

the momentum from simultaneous updates + a sale on all commercial platforms wouldn't have been life changing but it could have been a few extra meals. maybe this is done to prevent spam. maybe gabe could sell 1 yacht and hire staff.

making indie platformer number one million and one was probably not a sound business decision, but as a creative brain that yearns to learn it was a DELICIOUS challenge. platformers are so hard to get right, and creating a lot of high quality authored content that doesn't repeat was very tough.

silly comic. been a while since i made one of these.
a sketch of a comic. a young kid and an older person are at a bus stop. the older person is smoking. the kid says, "you know ... cigarettes can kill you," then smiles up at the old person, who stares back.

the person looks at the kid and considers them for a moment. "i know, kid. that's the point," they reply.

the kid makes a confused, funny face as they process this, then responds, "you aren't supposed to want that."

the old person stares back. they look tired.
