So apparently I didn’t understand that on itchio the “Sensitive Content” is almost exclusively used for… a certain type of game. I just want to clarify that this is not the genre for any game in the collection AT ALL. I placed that warning because of the blood/gore and setting

Going to have this custom printed at a local shop for an anime convention coming up. Not selling it of course. Personal use only. This is just a mock up. I wanted the baseball jersey for a “campbells soup” can look

I've started a small research project on Dreamcast web development. If anyone has anything to add such as links, info, or hosting choices, I'd appreciate a reply to the Dreamcast-Talk thread or here on this post dreamcast-talk.com/forum/viewtopi

Cool news! I just tested the new temple level and what I have of the new pirate level on real Dreamcast hardware, and they both run great! This is going to be really amazing stuff. Can’t wait till I can test a completed pirate map!

Thinking of saving up to go to Quake-Con again. Not this year but next. Hopefully they have indie booths again! Prices are probably even higher than last time though
1
Depending on if it runs well, I might make a fly through tech demo of the E1M1 level for download. Show off a big open level in the Quake engine and Dreamcast
1
I’m going to try to run some demo tests on both the new temple level and what I have of the new pirates level. I think I might be putting too many polys than the engine port can handle. Need to setup my Dreamcast again first 😅
1
The remake of the pirate level is coming along smoothly. It has no leaks or “leaf errors” which heavily slow down the framerate. I need to do some testing on Dreamcast though. Right now it’s still theoretically good. Emulation isn’t good at accurate framerates 😭

Alright, It might lead to nowhere, but as I’m waiting for the engine code, I’m going to be remaking the 2nd worse performing map, e1m1, or “The Pirate Level.” I want to bring the map up to at least 30-40FPS if possible. Right now it runs at 20-25 due to my terrible early mapping
2
It still amazes me how much detail Valve put into their levels in Half-Life 2 using only brushes and brushwork. I wonder if they used a 3D modeler for some of the stuff like vehicles and statues and exported them to .map files? Idk

Making a Windows 10 VM to test the PC port of Rizzo Island. I’ll also probably make a Windows 11 VM as well
Alrighty. Drive successfully migrated. Looks like, among other things, development is back on the menu
2
Game development is currently halted as I try to transfer my Windows 10 data drive to a new hard drive before it completely crashes. Different disk types have prevented me from doing a simple clone, and so I have to copy everything instead. Hopefully the transition goes smoothly

This is the program I’m using to create my Myst-clone Dreams of Mine for Dreamcast!

Looking back at Bryce 3D from 1997, which lets you quickly create surreal computer generated imagery. It always makes me think of 90s Trapper Keeper artwork, so let's create a tribute to that style of art using Bryce for PC!

Still have my signed poster from AX 2012(?)! I also have a few shirts in the closet as well!

There are places in this world that dislike Mexican food because the only kind they have available is Taco Bell, and that makes me sad

What started as a simple map edit is now turning into a full remake of the level. It's obviously still a WIP, but it's getting there!

So it’s come to the dreaded part of gamedev where you have to edit your old work then realize how shitty your mapping skills were and find it easier to just start over from almost scratch without moving the entities or the triggers. If I pull this off, the level should be better

Bald men with glasses spitting facts is my favorite YouTube genre
Going to try MIT Open Coursework to learn coding. I really need to learn programming not just for game dev, but for a proper job too. Might was well get my life together at 27 lol

IDC what anyone says, the System Shock 2 soundtrack is straight techno 🔥. I also think it gives an urgent pace to the game
In New Orleans right now with the fam. Got some good pics to turn into textures. Debating whether to sell them or not. Probably just put them up for donations

Does anyone have any good recommendations for photo apps for android that have a "seamless texture" effect? I'm in New Orleans and I want to make some textures from pictures I took around town

I always wanted for a virtual TCG to have YuGiOh style battle animations and effects. But from a user/gameplay perspective, it just makes no sense. Players just want to do the next move. They don’t want to wait for the animation they see over and over again to play. It’s tedious

Christmas present for ya'll tomorrow! Nothing big like a game or demo release, but it's still fun!

Just saw Free Willy With A Vengeance. 3D and visuals were amazing, but the script was laughably bad. I’d say it’s better paced than Avatar, but it still takes itself waaaaaaaay too seriously
Sometimes even with all the money and power one achieves, the simplicities in life is what you cherish most

Surprised this pic from Adelaide hasn’t appeared here yet

Meanwhile, my pretentious and experimental 16mm short film is lonely lol

I don’t think I necessarily hate it, but what I do hate is that it’s a shoddy video that was thrown together in an hour on a whim lol. It’s a Replica MGSV Tape I made, played in a broken Walkman. Only has a few thousand views but it is my most watched.

I've never met a single YouTuber who doesn't hate their most viewed video.

It’s not the big news, but I’ve semi-started up development of Rizzo Island again. I’m turning an unfinished level into a museum of unfinished and unused assets. It will be unlocked after collecting all the CD’s in every level. I just need to get a full version of QME to do it 😐

On the cusp of something big. Something REALLY big for the DC community…

Soooo the video finally finished rendering. And thanks to some shenanigans I caused by accident, the video corrupted 😭. Luckily it was a lossless AVI, so I was able to salvage some of it. Going to need to re-render the first part of it though
