hello
i haven’t made a post here for 5 years. thats scary. i think most of you left. if you haven’t, why have you been refreshing the same webpage for 5 years
i have made a couple of video games!! how cool wow great great great
they are both free and you can play them right in your browser (but only on computers – not really designed for phones)
here they are:
number one: TWO PLAYER
it’s a short (5 minutes ish???) single player video game about playing a video with your friend. it’s got multiple endings. i made the entire thing in about a week for the game jam 7DFPS
ok onto game number two:
it’s a puzzle arcade game where you push blocks around and navigate through a maze. it’s fun!! i made it in 2 days for the ludum dare game jam. ‘randomise user’ on youtube did a feature on it :)
here is a video of me playing it:
i’m working on turning it into a phone app. it nearly done, just need to sort out some bits and then submit to the android/iphone stores
there is also a third game i’m working on but that one is bigger and unreleased, but i’ll save that for another time
in other news i think i have gone mad. twitter and other social media has made me incredibly anxious about posting things online because of focus on the number of likes or responses or ‘engagement’ and there’s too many ‘real people’ with ‘real names’ and posting there makes me feel very stressed. i got to thinking about how 7-8 years ago when this blog was properly actually active with lots of people viewing it, i never really felt that here. it was my place and i was in charge and i didn’t feel stressed out if nobody noticed or liked what i was doing. i could draw a dumb picture and put it up here with 0 pressure or expectations or anxiety or comparisons to others. i’m not promising i will keep this place updated because i am bad at that too, but i’m glad i made this realisation, that attempting to post only on social media instead of this blog was/is pointless and made me feel awful all the while. there’s some rubbish pictures on this website that i made when i was an awkward teen but they’re my rubbish pictures and i’m ok with that
ok bye
