Today I updated A Body Is Subsumed In The Work to play a lot better in browser in fullscreen thanks to @sean s better unity webgl template.

Do you see the bigger picture and remember the details?

The eye, the main character of the game in front of an image of a mouth with rough dry lips. At the top of the screenshot bright pink paint marker is visible.

The eye in front of an upside down bats face glued to the collage with the pupil and iris of a deep brown eye cut from another image in the upper left.

the eye is near threshold of a red form with protruding tubes. From the holes in the tube green paint marker lines flow to the right across a patterned paper you might see inside an envelope.

the eye over the patterned paper of the inside of an envelope 2 clippings of text read "phone" and "technology can be delivered" a green paint marker line protrudes from the upper left and the bottom right is filled by a clipping of a wrinkled speclar shaded red form.

Here's an interesting #CallForGames for an upcoming magazine on games as poetry: Game Poems

Lots of details to consider, but it is paid!

GAME POEMS

Game Poems is an online literary magazine dedicated to exploring the artistic and poetic potential of short-form video games.

"The subtlety, elegance, and hunger of the human spirit is obvious everywhere in video games, neither constrained by nor separable from the interactive components, bounding boxes, and digital assets that shelter them." —Eavan Boland (adapted)

A really important thing to internalize if you're making art for public consumption!

In this 2D physics-based game, your goal is simple but challenging; Get your ball to the top of a mountain in the shortest time and with the fewest hits possible. #gamedev #indiegame #2d #altgames

If you're maxed out on Discords, I’ve got an irc channel for indie and alt games/gamedev talk at AfterNET at #AltGames. If you do not have an IRC client or don’t feel like messing around with that stuff, you can easily join through the browser here (https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.afternet.org/altgames). No registration is required either. Or start your own. I know why Discord is a lot more popular, but I think IRC is nice too

I'm SO ready to playFacade holy crap. It is a realistic dinner party with the worst 2 people you'll ever meet.

Any #vinesauce #joel fans out there? Or any REAL OGs who actually remember the game from 2005?!

grace and trip staring at SerTapTap like they hate her. She is saying "MELON"

So I'm making a gardening game where you plant pixelated pngs of plants in a series of 7 walled gardens around the base of a tower and each garden represents the balance of audio in a loop. Then when you go into the hall in the center you can hear the full sequence of all the individual loops in order blending between the balances defined by your planting pattern. It's been too long since I worked on a more experimental walking sim type thing :3

A view down the length of a walled in area towards an arch in the base of a round tower. There are flowers and tall trees to the left and right.

gonna repost my fav rant i posted on cohost re: shorter games with worse graphics

This meme is powerful and i didnt fully understand why until now. And i think a lot of people miss the point.

In the garden there's a maze
when you walk in there's no way out.

Screenshot of a low fidelity 3d game. at the center of the screen a wgite gate is nestled in a gap in a hedgerow, there are sprites of 3D rendered trees to either side of the gap and the hedgerow bends and breaks up to the left of frame.

Think I just finished working on my mixed media collage and video game piece: A Body is Subsumed in the Work

Should be releasing this at some point in the next 2 weeks. I'm really excited because it's been over 4 years since I made the initial collage in Oct 2019. A lot has happened in that time but I'm glad to be releasing this in 2023.

Linode has shut down the primary server of itch.io, one of the biggest platforms for small and indie game hosting, and as of yestereve, its founder Leaf was still waiting on a response from Linode:

I just checked and my itch.io page is still up (https://gersande.itch.io — publicly very little is visible today but I have a *lot* of private and hidden projects archived there I would be very sad to lose) but if you use itch.io to host anything and your page/account are still connected, might be worth taking some extra backups today.
