Queer indie dev. Kinda feral.

I co-run a video game cooperative called Studio Terranova with @mabbees.

A friend of mine is in town and wanted to go, so we went. Photo here is from a game called Dino Derby where players have to race to the end but in a certain order.

I finally got my hands on Yabu no Naka (In a Grove), an Oink Games deduction game that I played years ago, had a lot of fun, and then was unable to ever find again, despite the publisher being pretty popular here.

Yabu no Naka scratches a specific itch I have for games based on classic Meiji-era novels that also have mystery-solving like Clue; I was recently reminded that A Certain Chapter in Ace Attorney Chronicles also scratches this itch.

This very specific itch.



Than being sick since the end of March. It’s been an ongoing issue with my health for the past two years, but the periods of health recently have been shorter and the sick periods have been longer.

I guess the good news is since I made a timeline of my illness and am now showing up at the doctor on some of my worst days, they’re starting to believe that there’s “something going on” rather than patting me on the back and sending me home with acetaminophen.
