Done! noahpoole.itch.io/sick-leaves This is the quickest I’ve ever made a game, I feel drunk with power. And whiskey. This #fallingblockjam entry really helped me improve my pico 8 skills. I was trying to be so tidy and graceful when I started but ended with a mess. But it’s a working mess.

Ten hours to go for #fallingblockjam! I'm feeling good, this actually has way more gameplay than I was expecting. Just need to make two modes (free play and score chase), do some UI cleanup, and make some music. Seems doable!

I'm somehow making progress for this #fallingblockjam. All I need to do is implement broom/leaf physics interactions. I have it set up so far like @mixolumia.com's excellent pico8 breakout tutorial, which I only half understand. Just need to watch it a few more times and I'm sure it'll click 😅

I don’t want to be pigeonholed as the romcom concept album guy. I really want to write “serious” metal. But I can’t stop thinking about the 2009 film “Bride Wars” starring Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway.

Went to the new LACMA and it was mostly great but I saw some obvious slop, and man, is the art world really all in on AI?

I recently realized that bandcamp doesn’t make it super clear how to see lyrics, a friend was asking me to send lyrics even though he had the bandcamp link. So I made this. Easy!! weirdneeds.com

So true! Make your own website, it’s not hard. I’ve maintained my own for decades with minimal html knowledge. Claw back control of your art from the technofascists!

Props to whoever at @dsa.la wrote this line in the voter guide 😂
Line from DSA LA's voter guide on county assessor that reads "Perhaps a guesser could say this election is a lesser stressor for the assessor, under
no pressure from a potential successor (kind of a depressor), but you may as well
vote for Newland."

I went to the most amazing pinball tournament this weekend.

This is true in vfx too. Roto is the classic example of grunt work that "nobody likes to do", and it's increasingly automated and outsourced. But doing hundreds of hours of roto by hand directly informed my understanding of optics and photography.

Trying watercolors, I kinda think I prefer scanning the pen work and coloring digitally.
