I spend too much time playing games.

Once again had a lot of fun working on the #globalgamejam 2025! It was chaotic as game jams always are but managed to come out with something we're happy with. #GGJ2025 #gamedevelopment

I've also updated my Team Fortress 2 multiplayer level, adding some screenshots and generally prettying up the page. Much more minor stuff with this one though. #TF2

Been spending a bit of time going back to the project that I worked on this year for the Global Game Jam, fixing some small issues and tweaking little things. Nice to see annoying bugs get squashed.

In previous titles in the Pokémon video game series, Pokémon took action once per turn.

In #PokemonLegendsZA, Trainers and their Pokémon will move around in real time during battles, and Pokémon will unleash their moves when their Trainers command them to!
