Pleased and somewhat confused to announce that there is now not only a review of one of the in-game shows (obviously different depending on how it went), but also a chance to instead get a 1000-word essay written by an in-game critic about the relationship of art and critique

I want you to know that when "YOURSELF" in Clam2 says "I've suffered severe enough damage to all my sensibilities to just mindlessly yay-or-nay-say whatever wacky outcome the little icosahedron determines." that's me saying it, and meaning it, and calling out for help

back to work with fresh eyes on the dialogue I wrote last year and I'm happy to announce that some of it is mildly amusing

The dive bar scene's mostly done but I added in a functional jukebox! I've already got a composer lined up for the majority of the game's score, but if anyone out there interested in donating a track for this section of the game, let me know!

Reminder - if I'm not posting a lot on social media, it means progress on Clam2 is moving along really well! Also, 99% of my notifications from this cesspit nowadays is being followed by porn bots, who apparently are really into niche indie RPGs

Excited to announce the first OFFICIAL WORLD RECORD Any% SPEEDRUN of OPEN MIC! Someone reached out to me on Reddit, of all places, and shared their efforts with me. Absolutely fantastic, I'm a huge fan. youtube.com/watch?v=rXrrRyFd…

The quality of any game correlates directly with how easily and smoothly you can alt-tab/move your cursor from the game to another monitor

Localizing Clam 2 would already be a tall order because of all the wordplay and jokes, but it's made even worse by the fact that every once in a while, I'll accidentally make a typo, notice a few seconds later, and then just roll with it

Rewarding myself for every finished dialogue in Clam 2 by ordering yet another TTRPG core rulebook My motivation has never been higher and my disposable income has never

cackling to myself as I make the most nonsensical, convoluted viral-baiting marketing post for clam 2 I've ever made

Similarly, Clam2’s giant dialogue asset file is called ”testDatabase” and until I updated the Unity version, the project was called ”IsoTestRPG” and had a bunch of fallout 2 sprites in it

My actual production Balatro project folder is called “CardGame” and is still in my “Learning” directory, if that tells you anything about the expectations I had for the game

I constantly worry that Clam 2 is absolute trash and no one will enjoy it, probably because it's so rare that someone actually plays a current build. Whenever they do, however, they tend to like it. This feedback will calm me for another week or so, until I start worrying again.

This is some of the nicest feedback I've received on the current clam 2 build. I will always love running TTRPGs, so if Headliner gives you the feeling of playing a weird underwater comedy campaign at my table, I'm here for it
