Life update: I'm learning Godot

Apologies for the lack of updates on gamedev stuff or art in recent months. It's been a difficult year for personal reasons I won't get into, as well as the same reasons it's been a difficult year for everyone else. The world sucks right now. You get it.

Nonetheless, a little over a month ago now, I decided I needed to ...

Quick note about SLARPG's second anniversary

Hi everyone! Just wanted to set expectations for SLARPG's upcoming second anniversary on the 20th. I've been asked a few times if I have anything special planned for the occasion, and unfortunately the answer to that is "no."

Ideally, I would have liked to get the big update with Hard Mode and whatnot (and/or the digita...

ponett post PSDs: Summer art 2024 from patreon

Hello, PSD tier patrons! I haven't had as much to share for this tier as I'd like because I just haven't been drawing as much as I'd like, but I do have something cool in store for this tier in the near future.

For now, though, have the full resolution source files for the two beach drawings I did this summer! If you sa...

ponett post Behind the scenes: Unused dialogue and alternate scenes! from patreon

Hi everyone! It's been a bit since I did a big behind-the-scenes post. Apologies for the wait. I didn't intend to take such a long break from these, but, well, I'm still kind of struggling with post-project burnout even a year and a half after releasing SLARPG, and I'm trying to get back into the swing of making things as I s...

SLARPG: The Lost Songs! (plus a second run of the physical OST!)

Hi everyone! Sorry for the lack of Patreon updates recently. I've been moving slowly this year, but I'll try to have something new for patrons before too long.

In the meantime, I'm here to plug some new (and less new) merch from Bee and our friends at Turtle Pals Tapes, for anyone who might have missed the announcement ...

SLARPG Postmortem: One year later

ponett post SLARPG Postmortem: One year later from patreon

It's already been a year.

Quick update

Hi everyone! Apologies for the lack of posts on here in recent months. Creative burnout has simply gotten the better of me recently. I'll have a few posts to share in December to hopefully make up for the inactivity, though. Stay tuned!

Hi everyone! Here's something a little different for a behind the scenes SLARPG post. While working on the game's story, I developed a list of "writing tenets" outlining some of my main creative goals for writing stories set on Reverie, as well as some general fantasy storytelling tropes I'd rather avoid. Some core worldbuild...

For my next behind-the-scenes post, here's something special (and big): the earliest story outline ever written for SLARPG. This was put together in late 2017, prior to the demo, at Bee's request. At the time I was still primarily working on Act I and the foundational work for the game as a w...
