QR code didn't work for me until I added a white border to the top and bottom.
pickle darling game? Completed it mate. Found the new album in one save. Stuff like that doesn't go unnoticed.
hell yea!
thank you, and thanks to f/d recs for notifying me about this. i've been following them for a bit but somehow didn't catch that you were chch-based!? i have many thoughts after reading the bc summary for laundromat, and i'd def understand if you don't have such a penchant for playing/touring anymore, but if you do play here i'd love to come listen. i've been in such a rut for a long time but reading about how laundromat was the fruit of an attempt to come back to the simple joy of creating has me a lil inspired, so thank you <3 congrats n best of luck
p.s. game is rad, loved the escherian metamorphosis vibe of the run-up to the final encounter
yup i'm chch based!! returning to the initial joy of creating is a constant battle, especially when you're balancing it with trying to further a music career, trying to play shows and break even, also wanting to be validated by everyone else, looking at your own streaming numbers... sometimes that stressful stuff is necessary but sometimes it's also pointless!! figuring out a way to find enjoyment and purpose without regard to success i think is important (and also maybe the best path to success??? i dunnno i'm not successful haha)
Woah this is so crazy. When I was making my first game in 2020, I listened to Bigness on repeat to inspire me and get me in the zone. Now you've made game! When I heard the Gameboy version Bicycle Weather I was taken right back to that time and it brought a tear to my eye. Congratulations on the new album! I can't wait to listen to it
amazing!!! that's so cool to hear!! which of your games should i play first??
The only one that isn't completely terrible is Napolean because it was also made in GB Studio!
