Have you been sitting for a while? Walk around, stretch, or move what you can to get the blood flowing.

Take a few deep breaths and let the breath out in a sigh.

Carry on 😉

I haven't properly announced this before, but given the light of today's events, here we go: my game engine is ✨open source✨

if you're ever feeling experimental or just want to dive in a lot of nerdy code, here it is: https://github.com/isadorasophia/murder

Mathematical italic capital h mathematical italic small e mathematical italic small l mathematical italic small l mathematical italic small o.

WTF?

Oh, I just said “Hello” to you in italics.

(That’s similar to what someone who uses a screen reader hears when you use fancy non-alphabetical Unicode characters to simulate italics or boldface on your fediverse posts. So please don’t do that.)

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but the people taking your mandatory security awareness training don’t need to know all the made-up names for tricking people.
When getting scammed, no one needs to know “this is vishing” or smishing or squishing or whatever 🙄

Steam has approved Gordy and the Monster Moon for release. First try! For Frog Fractions there was a lot of, like, "the description says there's a flying dragon in this game, where is it?" This time was more like "There's a Mac build? Sure, we trust you."
