April 2026

July here,

Wow, this is later than normal. Even after we remembered, it took me a bit to get to this. It's surprising that we haven't made any of these posts for a month, but that's because some of the stuff we did went under the reviews section. We've been busy on all fronts! April feels like it went by in no time, and yet our birthday at the beginning of the month feels like ancient history at this point. In these kinds of conditions, I have a hard time really summing anything up.

So I'll say that things are pretty good. We haven't been completely stable in our mental health, but I don't really want to dwell on my own meltdowns here today. I'm thankful for everyone, and especially Trinket. My beloved doll is always there for me, so I promised to always be there for her too.

We took up some gamedev again. It's been a while since we did that. Years! Still, it's in our blood. We started out trying to learn Godot but eventually switched to the Lua-based Love2D and are having a lot more fun with it. It's nice to get down into a more code-based and lower-level engine than we have previously, and the game is slowly taking shape. We're balancing this with writing and streaming and everything else, so it's not fast but it's fun. We're inspired by a lot of the FDS games we played on stream, especially Fire Bam. Maybe the more silly FDS games we can reference along the way, the better.

That's all! I don't have much time this evening to write, but life continues apace.
