Very quick WIP glimpse of the game I'm working on this week. It's a project that I started a couple of years ago. I'm using edited/defaced Victorian stop motion photographs as sprites.pic.twitter.com/7lRDUdvMIU

"Flash games" was such a broad medium - everything from polished, big-budget productions to scrappy, throwaway ideas, and all so immediately accessible. I loved that.

It let me work quickly and independently with only a little starting knowledge, let me share my work widely, taught me the basics of "grown up" programming, and got me interested in learning more.

Sad to see the real, final end of Flash Player coming up fast! As with a lot of creative/tech people of a certain age, Flash was super important to my career.

Experimenting with doing something other than eating Chocolate Oranges and playing Cities: Skylines during this liminal, nothing-y week.

Late to the party/unoriginal tweet: I really like the BBC adaptation of His Dark Materials, especially the parts where there's a red panda to look at.
