Been vibe coding the shit out of some of my favorite game genres. Bullet heavens, idle games, strategy and even a bastardized Balatro.

I've been quiet on here recently. With the games industry imploding I switched industries and I am now working in AI. I've also been focusing on music production and have been releasing a ton of content over the last few years. Life's never been better, reach out if you like.

The video game industry is dying thanks to being mired in late-stage capitalism and now AI is coming to remove the barrier of creation. The game devs who adapt will take back the industry from these corporate overlords. Start working on your IPs now #gamedev.

Talked to the fellas at the office. Looks like we're making Levers and Chests! Tipping point was PC Gamer saying it seemed interesting, lol. Yeah I still love PC Gamer.

Avoiding all levels of politics and religion like they are the bubonic plague has been a great life hack.

My bank just informed me that if I don't use the money I keep there they will keep it all for themselves. Why am I not surprised, post-capitalism is upon us.

Gave @MarvelRivals a spin. Some impressive production elements for sure! So many characters not sure how anyone can find their preferred play style. Matches are nice and short so doesn't feel like a slog. Need teamplay though or your squad gets worked.

@GeorgeCrudo The improvement is dropping the barrier of entry, allowing any to build a world, script it and find the fun factor for others to enjoy. No more clunky engines or code just creativity.

people keep saying "every pixel will be generated" but nobody can ever tell me how this is an improvement for video games. games that can't guarantee full game consistency and intentional design. don't sound or look appealing to play in any way.

One of my favorite purchases this year is this Ninja appliance that creates perfect slurpees. It can do a lot more than that but that's why I got it. Your #XmasList sucks without it on there.

Not every idea is a winner. I just spent hours building a feature for my game that plain sucked :D I hope another, better idea emerges from the ashes of this dud!

One of the best new shows in the last decade and it can't even get a 2nd season. Just pathetic @netflix. I am glad I don't donate to your goal to drag content down to the lowest common denominator.

'Scavengers Reign' co-creator Joe Bennett has confirmed on Instagram that Netflix will not be renewing the series for a second season. He posted a teaser produced at Green Street Pictures showing what was to come in season 2 if the show had been able to continue.

Melvins up close and personal. There’s some serious fuzz going on here — but worth it to hear them break into Sabbath. I’m guessing this is early 90s.
