Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Drywater, my mobile survival game, is getting NPC Towns in the next release - including a general store and a bank you can rob! In the meantime, there's also a new trailer! youtu.be/o6Nf3IV8wiU?...youtu.beDrywater – Official Trailer | Wild West Survival Pixel Art GameYouTube video by Applied Flux 010
Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 09/09/2026As much as I hate to admit this, because I hate Apple, the fact that Apple is comfortable releasing a foldable now has me much more open to the idea of finally picking up the Samsung Galaxy Flip that I've been eyeing for 3 generations now. But also a Fold would be dope. 010
Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 09/09/2026It's insane how this game continues to grow and expand. @whatleydude.com shall we rendezvous on our shared planet soon? 110
Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 08/09/2026There are parts of society that I just vehemently despise. The whole process of a "pharmacy" is one of them. Why do I need to come sit here while you fill my order? Why can't I just have a prescription dropped off at my door kike everything else. 001
Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Listening to Enya makes me think of @kevinctofel.bsky.social. Hope you're doing well, friend. 010
Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Drywater is up to v1.4.4! New visuals, including some nice dynamic lighting, as well as improved rivers/lakes, completely overhauled worker system, and portals.

Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 08/08/20263 months ago I decided to build the video game that I've always wanted to play. It's called Drywater, and it's a mobile survival game set (somewhat) in the Old West.

Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 10/07/2026Rewatched "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" on the flight home this week. I'd forgotten just how unbelievably awful this movie truly was, and primarily because the two leads had the chemistry of a brown paper bag and a piece of sandpaper. 000

Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 15/06/2026It's still wild to me how the MCU came all the way to Infinity War basically printing money, then got through Endgame and promptly lost the plot entirely. Is there even ONE post-Endgame MCU movie worth watching? 000

Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 11/06/2026Just saw that there is ANOTHER #Halo game up for sale, for $60, that is apparently just a repackage of the original campaign? This would be the THIRD time (that I'm aware of) that MS has sold the same junk. And they wonder why XBOX is struggling. 000

Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 09/05/2026Is there anything more engaging than sitting next to someone who is scrolling through Instagram with their sound on? Legitimately rage-inducing. 010
Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 06/05/2026When I worked in an office environment, I wanted a reMarkable so freakin bad. I used to actually carry an iPad (I know, it's true) with a stylus around when I worked at RadioShack. Now that I'm WFH, though, I'd struggle to find a use for something like that. 020

Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 24/04/2026@lastpass.bsky.social you guys *desperately* need to add a "merge duplicates" option to help manage the Vault. Also a duplicate detection. "It looks like you already have a login for this, do you want to merge them?" App vs website for instance. 010

Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 29/03/2026The *only* positive I can see from this whole Strait of Hormuz fiasco is that it *could* theoretically, jump-start the renewable resources drive.

Ricky Cadden @rcadden.bsky.social · 29/03/2026Someone needs to figure out to let consumers update all of the media targeting solutions at the same time. I WAS shopping for a mattress.
