new year edition
progress on my next game Idlenet, an idle/incremental merging game made with LÖVE in lua, has been steady. for the latest developments, please read the newest development log!
a lot of the midgame is being smoothed out now and the game is getting very close to having source available. i will probably soft-announce the game in early access around a steam next fest, we’ll see…
maybe i’ll have or maintain an ongoing doc for idlenet spec but that’s for when i have more than like three devlogs written haha

| (almost 500 commits now since starting the repo in 2022! and the game’s still not done!) |
for games i am playing and not making, check out my backloggd, i swear i’m keeping it up to date. some “highlights” lately:
- gran turismo 7 released its spec III update back in early december, so i’ve gotten back into the game. yas marina and montreal’s CGV look fucking amazing! and the 296 GT3 is great fun too
- american truck simulator is getting a british columbia, canada DLC soon… so i started trucking again

who asked

- clipse let god sort em out - im a clipse fan so this album instantly hit for me. insane comeback and some of pharrell’s best beats in years paired with much needed high quality raps.
- fugazi - minor threat’s complete discography compilation is probably one of my favorite albums of all time. i should have listened to repeater much earlier…
- a lot of 70’s king crimson thank you to robert fripp for holding the KC discog hostage from DSPs for so long for me to start self-hosting my music collection
closing words
for the dozen or so fans of my previous game, there’s also a second game/project i’ve been “secretly” working on since october, still in the prototyping stage, and it’s a spinoff set in the crackhead jack universe. i really doubt i’ll announce more publicly this year, but who knows? maybe when i clock in 200+ hours in aseprite or something
