All it took was a fair amount of artists and game devs to leave and I can happily say the bluesky feels like it's going to sustain momentum.
So farewell twitter. I'll be grabbing all my images and videos and leaving this bot infested, horribly managed, bigot tolerating platform
I might end up selling the source code since that's something some people are doing. Though they charge a pretty hefty amount and it's usually for limited access. I wanted to create something someone can use as much as they want. But I want to add a few more freatures first.
I've been building a little engagement interactive game for platforms like tiktok for fun on the side as a little programming challenge project. It's been fun to see it working in action and I'm keen to see what else I can do with it.
I was originally meant to go to two but only ended up at one event for MIGW this year and honestly it felt good to be able to just wind down and relax instead of stressing and racing everywhere. Plenty of time for socialising and networking next year :)
The #ffxiv fan celebration event in Melbourne was fun, glad to have had people from the FC to hang with and even picked up a tattoo to rep my fellow WHMs.
Didn't win the Cactpot raffle but maybe next time :P

We’re thrilled to share that Jump Ship has been nominated in multiple categories at the devGAMM Awards! Winning could give us some monies and help fund further development, so if you'd like to support us, cast your vote: form.fillout.com/t/hZWP7Kgy7Aus
And as if that wasn’t exciting enough, Unity (that game engine we use) has nominated us for the Most Anticipated Game award! You can show your support by voting: create.unity.com/unity-awards-g…

Shoutout to the absolute legend that is @maxcruisemusic your music is amazing and this vinyl being in my collection will be such a highlight. Jamming out to it now!
Any of my mutuals going to Games Week Launch Party tomorrow night at Fortress? Giving megadev a miss this year but keen to catch up if anyone's around.
Told my partner/co-game dev to test a new co-op section with me for our upcoming game. She had no idea I was about to propose.
