@JonasTyroller hey Jonas, curious if you still stand by your "Best Code Architectures" video or would you revise any of your advice after this interview?
Wordy Rain is 20% off during Steam's Fall Sale! Grab it if you haven't already, especially since I'm planning a little Halloween-themed update later this week... store.steampowered.com/app/3767020/Wo…
Prune, my bonsai puzzle game and love letter to trees, is finally out on Steam for its 10th anniversary! RTs appreciated!
Baby Steps, the game I've been working on for 6 years with @gabecuzzillo and @maxiboch, is out on PC and PS5! We've put a feature-length film's worth of stupid cutscenes in this thing, and I hope you like them. But if not, you can skip them.... OR CAN YOU???? RTs appreciated 🙏
@bfod @gabecuzzillo @maxiboch congrats!
1 year of development in 1 minute! 2023 Let's go!
Prune is coming to Steam on September 25th! That's like, less than a week away! store.steampowered.com/app/3903490/Pr…
@Niuxyz definitely would be interesting to try and make a game in a genre that you normally despise or otherwise would not play. Agree, for horror there's probably a lot of ways to interpret it that would be different than the norm
Need a couple more beta testers for Prune on Steam - DM me!
For its 10th anniversary, Prune is making the leap from mobile to PC. How many of you remember this quiet, meditative experience from 2015? "A puzzle game about cultivating growth and the joy of letting go."
I'm not usually one to reminisce, but this time I couldn't help it. Prune changed my life. It felt like something bigger than me, like something I uncovered. I was shocked by how many people it reached--and grateful that it helped them find a little quiet in their busy lives.
Not sure I'm gonna win against the algorithms here, but would appreciate your wishlists on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3903490/Pr… (it means the game has more of chance to get in front of new players)
Prune, my digital bonsai game about cultivating what matters, just turned 10! In an age of endlessly fractured attention, I still believe it has something to offer--now more than ever. So to celebrate, I'm finally bringing it to PC. (steam link below)

Please forgive and be patient with me, as producing content is a new thing for me. I created a Substack to assist in the readability of the op-eds. I realize the long form post on X isn't exactly the best. Here are the two op-eds I've written currently. Thank you for your time
