I quit my job and my resting heart rate dropped 10% within a week. That's how damn stressed I was over the little man in the company computer. I'm glad to be done there, even if the future feels scary.

Ah it feels so difficult to keep myself motivated, even about things that I have passion for, and WANT to do. Brainbad.

I knocked out 4 new models for Striatum last night, in my new Xubuntu install, and got them uploaded to my project with command line git. Feels hacker noises.

Miss Des @missdesgames.bsky.social · 24/09/2025

Looking forward to finishing up Striatum. I've been putting some hours back into it, and the polish is starting to shine.

I had gotten really upset with some of the edges after having modeled my world in separate parts and putting it together in Godot, so I remade the whole thing into a single model. There's a few parts that I could still probably revisit, but it fixed the worst bits. youtu.be/S0s6e2yU9jc

I'm wanting to play some Dark Souls : Remastered again soon. I do think I went too hard with that 10hr session a while back, so it's been nice to step away from it for a while.

Miss Des @missdesgames.bsky.social · 19/03/2025

I have loved technology about as long as I can remember. Playing games is neat, but I'm still a sucker for spec sheets and I think I want to just talk about that sometimes. I might try something new soon.

Miss Des @missdesgames.bsky.social · 15/03/2025

I guess it’s been 4 weeks since I last posted here. Things are fine. Making lots of new art assets for my indie game in blender and throwing it into godot. It’s been a lot of fun.

Miss Des @missdesgames.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

The juice is coming back. I knocked out more than a handful of new models tonight that will add a lot of flavor to my next project. Super excited about it.

Seeing a lot of gamedev advice about how to operate cheaply and seriously have you considered marrying someone who arts (or codes if you're the artist) I'm being 100% serious, left/right brain 2 person teams are hugely OP in micro indie terms "But we need a bigger team" have you considered Poly

Important Blender lesson : Snapping settings are file specific, and need to be reset on every new file. I nearly had a meltdown last night because I couldn't figure out why things stopped snapping to vertex points. Cuz I had copied a chunk of a file into a new one, and didn't set it up right lol

I have spent more days than not the past week in blender and godot setting up the next iteration of the game world. I’m happy with the progress I have been making, and finally taught myself how to make consistent door openings in walls.

Miss Des @missdesgames.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

Shout out to my girlfriend who is amazing at coding and is making leaps and bounds on wrapping up our final envisioned version of our last game jam game.

Miss Des @missdesgames.bsky.social · 21/01/2025

Finally had some energy for game dev work the past week or so. I pulled apart the apartment I built in Blender and started to mash it back together in a different shape with some new additions. The tedious part will be adding colliders to everything in Godot when I get that far...

Miss Des @missdesgames.bsky.social · 10/01/2025

I've had essentially zero energy for game dev stuff the past month and I'm sad about it.

Miss Des @missdesgames.bsky.social · 22/11/2024

The day job slog is really wearing on me. I’m hopeful for a future where I can stop having to do that and focus on things that bring me more satisfaction.

Miss Des @missdesgames.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

It’s the morning after my game jam finished and I have already opened my project back up and started looking at ways I can make it better. I’m a code addict. #indiedev #gamedev #godot

Been using Blender on my new m4 mini with 32gb of RAM and it's been a delight. Materials lag a little to open, but outside of that it's working really well. I'm excited to start making assets for the LAG Jam I'm participating in through Sunday!

Miss Des @missdesgames.bsky.social · 11/11/2024

I have ran my 8gb m1 Mac mini out of ram like daily for the past 3 days. Hype for my new m4 mini to show up today with 32gb to replace it.

Miss Des @missdesgames.bsky.social · 05/11/2024

What if : I just made a video game in a genre I basically never stream but still enjoy. Like wouldn’t that be funny if my girlfriend and I were getting close to releasing the demo. Just so silly to play a video game made by two trans girls.

I see people out here talking about game design documents and I'm like hmm, yes, quite. Yes I totally planned the structure of.... anything. Definitely did not just yolo in there. Definitely still not making everything up as I go along. Totally all planned, for sure. #indiegamedev #solodev

I’ve heard rumblings already of a return to office. I was hired to work 100% remote. The nearest office is 129 miles from me and I’m priced out of living closer. This sucks. I hate corporate America.

We already know some companies mandated return to office to soft exit high salary people. Now that the market is flooded with unemployed devs they can hire the same positions back in-office at much lower salaries! Wow! I love it! 💀

So I’m pretty hype over the m4 Mac refresh and think I’m going to upgrade from my 8/256 m1 to a 32/256 m4 mini. Dongle city tho lol even with 5 ports
