carboob bassist @davemakes@mastodon.social

Ok, #introduction time. My name is Dave.

I've been a graphic designer, a UI/UX designer, and now I make games. Probably the most well-known thing I helped make was a board game called Mechs vs Minions.

I'm working on a game called Pan Galactic Railway. You can check out http://spacetrain.space for info.

I'm from Chicago, but I've lived in Japan for 3+ years now. My favorite Japanese food is okonomiyaki, which I cook every week.

I like games, illustration, and music with weird sounds.

ps this is my game pan galactic railway, it's about piloting a space train. Here's the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpOW19qH3AI

using version control is important because if you feel like you're not making enough progress in a big project you can revert to what it was 1 year ago and be like OH YEAH THIS SUCKED COMPARED TO NOW

camera dollies past dave with bass on backwards somehow, just kinda rhythmically moving hands around it and awkwardly stepping side to side

camera pans to josie bowing a cow carcass like a cello

cut to teen girls clutching at their hearts and screaming in ecstasy

my bass is literally on the other side of the planet that's how bad at bass I am

there we go

more pico-8 nonsense

been making some cool nonsense with pico-8 lately

This is the best instructional video on YouTube. The indignation of this person at even having to explain the simplest thing is glorious https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXVWunARFWs

holy fuck, sense8 is amazing

I've been missing out

We are at an art museum and T is pointing out people in paintings who she thinks has big dick energy

for sale: baby brass knuckles, never worn

we have this semi-outdoor stairwell in our building and a starship troopers size beetle got lost in there and all these dust bunnies and spiderwebs got him all gunked up so I got chopsticks and pulled the gunk off him and took him to a nice spot outside

did jumping jacks and ran down 3 flights and around the block and back up so that's my exercise for forever right

fuck this brain

thank you for validating my joke, masto friends

so there's a slack with some former coworkers in it

and one of them is named "flash"

and he got certified as a scrum master

and I posted "scrum master flash is my favorite hip hop artist"

AND NOBODY EVEN REACTED

so those friendships are CANCELLED
