Did I skip yesterday for some chillaxation? You bet! am I hoping that nobody notices? Yes siree. Do I know that you'll forgive me because today's update is pretty rad? Not quite, but I've got my fingers crossed!
Salty just handed me the most recent release. It doesn't have the updated s...

Foreword for my Patreon followers: Hello! As someone who has visited GDC in the past years, but who is not always able to attend in person, I was excited at the opportunity to answer the open call for games talks for the simultaneously running event,
Hey all. The week of Pairnormal work continues. Progress is coming along great, although at the moment--and for the next couple of days we're not working on anything too flashy.
Right now I am tackling one of the biggest steps in Pairanormal, which is going through the entire script and adding pacing, emotion, so...

welcome back, folks. It's more Week of Pairanormal, this time with a cool music update!
The new UI has been uploaded, and Salty's gonna be adding it all in tomorrow. Today I'm working on the story, adding in character expressions for every moment of the game. I'm also adding in music and sound effects cues! The g...

Today I've uploaded the two new animations of Mari and Stacy for their exclusive scene. I'm also creating the finalized assets for the UI (we've been using hastily-drawn placeholders until ...

Hey all! while I was out in Vegas for another project, I wasn't able to work on Pairanormal (not to mention, I've been battling a wicked flu these past couple of weeks). But I'm back now, and this week is all clear to recover, but also put a dent in Pairanormal. As such, expect an update from us every day!
Here's...

Last night I chugged three cups of black tea and finished all the art necessary to complete Pairanormal's demo chapter. Next week, while on another paid project in Vegas, I'll be doing a final pass on the chapter's story.
I can't tell you how good it feels to be hitting a project milestone. I really believe we can deliver this...

Hey all. We're hard at work wrapping up the demo chapter of Pairanormal. Sorry I haven't posted much, but here's something to hopefully tide you over. Our rad musician Maglo made the 3rd piece of music for the game, and it's the Daytime theme. Take a listen! It'...

Can you believe it?!? the demo is in the final stages of completion. What you're looking at here is the last art that has to be made for the game, which are all the character animations. Meanwhile, Salty is testing and editing the game's story, which has been put into the game. We are also waiting on the last song to be put in t...

hey folks, now that we're nearing the end of this demo chapter of pairanormal, I've had to plan how the development cycle of this game is going to go, and what the game's availability will be for backers and non backers. I think I've figured it out, and am going to share this plan below:

This is "TENSION", the new track by our music producer Mag.Lo. Not only is it a VERY danceable beat (in my opinion, anyway), it's the perfect mood-heightener for all those tense moments in the game.
Thanks so much for kicking us money over the holidays, folks! I can't emphasize enough that awesome music like this would NOT be ...

Hey folks, quick update on Pairanormal--
all the backgrounds, special images, and UI for Pairanormal has been made for the demo. Right now, Salty is setting up the game's foundation code wise. In the meantime, I'm animating all the characters and adding the final touches to the demo's script.

Pairanormal is coming along, as it always is. I'm in the process of creating UI mockups. Once Salty turns them into usable game, all that's going to be left is to transfer the demo's story (which has been 100% writ...

as you all know, we're in the final stages of Development for StarSllam. I figured since everything's getting wrapped up, I'd take the opportunity to go back in and clean up some of the art, make everything look a little more unified artistically. This is a mockup I made with the new tiles: what do you think?

Hey patrons! What a wild month it's been.
A week ago, Salty contacted me and challenged me to wrap up StarSlam before the Year's end. I've just finished putting the final touches on a giant Game Design Document that does just that. As such, we'll be making the credits for the game soon.
