  • October Next Fest!

    I’m very (nervously) excited to say that October Next Fest has begun! It’s been a long couple weeks with BristolVGE and getting started with advertising the game more heavily – I even unfortunately have a TikTok page now – and it’s ramping up more with this, Steam Scream, and AdventureX in the next month.

    Still, I’m super excited for people to try the game and to see what it has hiding under the hood. The S.S Vandermeer has many secrets…

    Also, I’ve gotten some work on other projects done and they’re shaping up to be very exciting! I won’t be able to say much until at least a couple weeks after DEGENERATE STAR’s release, but I hope you stay tuned for that.

    Have a good week, and check out some cool indie games!

    DEGENERATE STAR is joining the Haunted Publishing Syndicate!

    Hi!

    I am extremely happy to say that DEGENERATE STAR has found publishing support with the Haunted Publishing Syndicate. They’ve started very recently but have already helped with 4 wonderful titles (go check ’em out!) and I’m super grateful to be working with them.

    The official release date (pending world ending catastrophe) is November 6th! I can’t wait to show you what I’ve been working on :)

    In the meantime, I’ve had a busy couple months, and I have an announcement for a different project coming up. Stay tuned!

    Thanks,

    As development on DEGENERATE STAR has been wrapping up and work on other projects slowly creeping back in, I’ve found myself wishing for a better place to post long-form writing about game development. If you’ve stuck around for a long time, you may remember I used to use a Ko-Fi page for this in the early Dream Spectra days, but I think something more centralised would serve me better now.

    I’m hoping to use this for game development updates, design discussions, announcements, and whatever else I can’t fit in a Bluesky post. In that spirit, here are some sneak peeks of the upcoming DEGENERATE STAR behind-the-scenes booklet:

    I should have something more substantial to announce soon, and I’ve already got some more design focused writing on the back-burner. See you then!
