I write, make, draw, play, game, and do handsome faces. I made Hive Time. Currently making Winter's Wake & Icicle (and a stack of side things)

Did a quick little concept sketch for something that Underflow Studios is working on while discussing gameplay stuff. Super rough, but I think it captures the kind of mood we were talking about.
A nice essay on city building/resource management games, and how they frame the value of their worlds, with a focus on the way that Terra Nil mechanically expresses something that stands in stark contrast to its contemporaries in the genre. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NT0KvXMyFgI
Been adding one or two date-based events for the upcoming #HiveTime patch. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev
These two friends spent all day preening each other on top of my bird feeder. I think they might be planning to make an egg.

I'm about to chop some potatoes for my dinner, and there's one itty bitty potato that is too precious. I don't think I can bring myself to eat it. I want to name it Jeremy. I want to keep Jeremy safe and show it the world.
