    My indie game I worked on for 10 years was immediately bumped off of New & Trending by @EA spam releasing 11 titles at once. All of the built-up marketing and momentum squashed in an instant. #HappyInternationalWomensDay !

    15 years ago, I started working at @GameStop. Today I returned to that very same store to pick up a copy of #FaeFarm-- my first game in my 10 year #gamedev career to have a physical release!

    I'm so sorry. It's not fun. I'm devastated.

    The list is date-ranked. They are only "ahead" on this list because they released them right after my time slot. And it was a shadowdrop (not announced), so I had no chance to preplan and avoid them.

    Calcifer is certainly enjoying my new @falconnw laptop... Well, at least he's enjoying that I can work in the backyard. Now with @Intel #Optane memory, I can develop Potions wherever I want, switching back and forth between multiple programs faster than ever. #CRE8 #ad

    Not yet, but I will be working on porting to consoles next. Or that was the plan... this wrecked all of my sales estimates. I might not be able to afford to now.

    .@Intel #Optane memory adapts to my use and knows I'll be accessing Potions assets frequently, so loading and running the game is so much faster than ever before! #CRE8 #falconnw #ad

    Over the last 2 years, I've gone from putting on makeup and a blouse for every video call to being bare-faced in a t-shirt like 95% of the men I have calls with. Every time I feel underdressed, I look at the men wearing the exact same and realize how misplaced that feeling is.
