2024-2025 Wrap-up

Episode Art by Sayara T.

It's been a while since the last proper wrap-up post! Let's do a little run-down of what I've been up to over the last few years.

• Rhete, Polly, and I restarted the Sockscast after a couple of years off. Between equipment updates and a much tighter episode run-time, I think we're making better radio than ever. The 2025 GOTY episodes are a great place to jump in!
• Launched a new website! Take a look around — I have links to my various web presences, lists of games I really like, and a whole mess of links to other cool sites. It feels good to have a home online that's mine again, instead of being wholly dependent on services like Itch or Blogger.
• Made five little games for Glorious Trainwrecks.
• Contributed to the 2024 Tunnels of Vextro and the 2025 Vextro Unplugged anthologies.
• Wrote a 45k word Twine, my largest prose work to date (published under a different label), plus a big post-release update a year later.
• Started writing games criticism again.
• Judged for the IGF twice, met some cool peers, played a bunch of very cool games. 
• Contributed to the first Unearthed Treasure Room games showcase.
• Was interviewed by Electric Airship on YouTube.
• Made a little Puzzlescript and then made a collab level pack with friends.
• Made a little Videotome horror short.
• Contributed a map to the Caves of ZZT Remix collab ZZT. 

There's nothing more reinforcing for an artist than having a community of brilliant, supportive peers. My friends in the Socks, Vextro, and Domino communities (plus friends that don't fit neatly into any of those boxes) have done more for my creative drive than anything else. 

This year's starting strong with the Cookie Cutter jam. We're getting an insane number of submissions! I made a whole one-hour micro-RPG in ten days! That's a very fast turn-around for me! After the jam, I'm hoping to polish off at least one of my two extant mega-projects, then slam out some more short-form works. Look forward to it!
