Fellow Texans: verify that your voter registration hasn't been suspended without your knowledge. I just double-checked mine following a link in the article; it took all of 1 minute. Make sure your voice can be heard in November.

Now that the Steam playtest for Unholy Roller is out, I can finally talk about what I’ve been working on this summer! There’s a lot I could say about every new feature and visual upgrade in this version, but I’ll just go over the highlights. 🧵1/5 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #art #animation

late but i had fun :) (also using this to shamelessly mention my game #AvocadoAttorney available now on the crystal ball)

Comic of me and a friend talking while walking together

Panel 1
Me (thinking mischievously): "Ooooooo I just got a sick idea for my game's combat system"
Friend (leaning back): "Course ya would"

Panel 2
Friend (annoyed): "Wait don't tell me you're adding a combat mechanic too that's gonna take you like 5 billion years"
Me: "Oh, not to Avocado Attorney, no"

Panel 3
Me: "It's for one I wanna make in the future"
Friend: "How far in the future we talkin"
Me: "Well this'll be game #4"
Friend: "And you're SURE you'll actually get around to making it"
Me: "Yeah I've got it all handled!"

Panel 4
Me (smugly holding up a timeline with faces on it): "It's all part of my 15-year plan"
Friend (looking at it skeptically): "Are we in Year 1"
Me: "Hopefully"

What if I just started unceremoniously dumping lore and world building. What if I made stories with details I'm not sure about? What if I post stuff that will later be incorrect. Non-canon. Discarded. Updated. Sounds like more fun than waiting until I'm sure.

I wanted to share this here, I made this video to show people that making art isn’t ‘talent’ but rather it is something that is learned and practiced. Art is beautiful and art takes time. We all start from somewhere. - #art #artist #furry #furryart #voltron #furrycommunity

I know calling reps is very nerve racking. You're not sure what's the right thing to say, and tbh having a script thrown at me makes things just as nerve racking. I called today, and I figured I'd write up a transcript of how my call went down. Hopefully it helps demystify the process

Office Rep: Hello! this is the office for congressman Billy Bob. How May I help you?

Me: Hey my name is (Gov. name) from (residing city). I had some concerns.

Office Rep: Sure thing I can pass on a message!

Me: Are you familiar with this ongoing push for these online safety laws?

Office Rep: Hmm...Is there a particular bill or law that it involves?

Me: A few actually!

Office Rep: Go ahead!

Me: the KIDS Act, Kids online safety act (KOSA), the Screen Act, Sammy's Law, and the App Store Accountability Act

Office Rep: Got it!

Me: I strongly oppose these laws and I urge Billy Bob to vote no when these bills are up for vote. They do nothing to actually protect children and are just a cover to suppress free speech.

Also There's been a bipartisan push to end section 230. I think Section 230 should be protected since it's important for online free speech. I'm not a fan of this speed running of a surveillance state happening
right now. Have you noticed that?

Office Rep: (Chuckles) Okay, I have it all written down and I'll make sure Billy Bob gets the message. Thank you for calling!

Me: Thank you for listening.

what makes Avocado Attorney special is its simple scene authoring tools making fangames easy to develop evidence presenting sections are a little more complicated than cross-examination and menus because they need to check multiple answers at once, but hopefully the template still makes sense!

Scratch code for the single evidence presenting section seen in the previous post.

Scratch code for the double evidence presenting section seen in the previous post.

I get sad when people in creator communities reserve their reacts/comments for the crème de la crème. Like, c'monnn: it costs nothing to encourage others! Even if their art/writing/game/whatever isn't technically impressive! Even if it's amateurish! ABANDON YOUR PRIDE & BUILD COMMUNITY.
