- I should start posting my meals like Kojima used to. And then take a selfie of me in an empty movie theatre.
- I can't believe I technically have over 15 years of game development experience. I still feel like there is so much to learn.
- Making videogames.

- View while I work from my parents place. Spent the holiday making a new game prototype. Seems promising.
- Morph ball slingshotting was the coolest new addition to Metroid Prime 4. I really wish they had added more new abilities that created emergent gameplay and surprising ways to traverse the environment. I also wonder if a bike was necessary when they could have just added a faster morph ball. 🤷♂️
- Finished Pokemon ZA. Liked the ending, felt like it captured the energy of the Pokemon tv show and movies.
- Death's Gambit: Afterlife is 55% off on #switch and Switch 2! Sale lasts until January 5th.
- It’s not mentioned in the newsletter because I forgot, but I programmed the full Shadowmantle battle and was responsible for balancing and integrating all the minigames for the Tenna battle. (1/2)
- I also spent significant time collaborating with Toby and Alexmdle on assembling the Hammer of Justice battle. That one took a long time. Incredibly grateful and lucky for the opportunity to work on these. Glad people enjoyed!
- Why yes I did choose the burger as my Switch profile icon.
- Spent the last few years working on Deltarune Chapter 3 and 4. Toby just posted development interviews and and more info on the development of the game. Take a read : ) toby.fangamer.com/interviews/c...

- Both Death's Gambit and Deltarune are on the Steam Winter Sale. Support what I've worked on if you want : ) store.steampowered.com/app/356650/D...
- I have a really unique game idea that I want to play so bad. I honestly might make it so I can play it lol.
- Reposted by Jean Canellas 🏳️🌈I finished annotating (most of) the translation with 8-4's assistance. I skipped a couple unfinished parts, but it's enough for the translator to properly start work on Monday! Yay!
- Reposted by Jean Canellas 🏳️🌈Now that's Winter, I'm thinking about NEWSLETTER. But I haven't written anything for one yet... Right now, my energy is going towards preparing Chapter 5 for localization. The translation process begins next week. We have extracted all the English text and we are now annotating it.
- Reposted by Jean Canellas 🏳️🌈Terminei a arte maior que tava fazendo do Wplace.live feliz de como ficou, amo essa arte da Endless do Deaths Gambit tinha que fazer, ainda devo fazer umas outline e letras mas to sem pixel agora XD só amanha
- Busted out the Switch 2 gamecube controller for Air Riders.

- Has the narrative changed about long games? Do most people still get upset that some games aren't long enough? I'm talking about 40+ hour games.
- I remember when I was in highschool my big brother told me to never work on RPG because they are boring. LOL.
- Reposted by Jean Canellas 🏳️🌈I had a friend play through an early unfinished version of Chapter 5! Their testimonial was "I am still thinking about it a lot and want to play it more and it's kawaii when toby is worried about if it's good enough"
- The idea that an online game has a "game master" is fascinating. Thinking about how certain values in Helldivers 2 change based on how the developers want the story to go.
- Just found out about webfishing. Good game.
- How much should a game developer play? I feel like every year the amount of good games coming out is getting higher and higher. My guess is game designers should play enough to get a solid foundation then mostly play lots of games in between projects or games similar to what you are making. (1/2)
- Obviously you can play way more than this but its just hard to know when to stop. There's only so much time you got. And on top of that you don't want to keep changing game direction because you played a new game. (2/2)
- We are so back
- If it takes like 5 minutes to get to the “hard” part of a boss which kills you instantly, I think it’s pretty fair that you look up a video of that part lol.
- I really want to make a game design video on how most people prefer games that test muscle memory over anything else.

- My original idea for Death’s Gambit was that in order to beat it, you had to cancel the contract with Death. You’d have to beat the final part of the game with the fear that your whole save file could be erased if you die. For many reasons… I couldn’t pull this off correctly so I didn’t do it.
- Reposted by Jean Canellas 🏳️🌈and here's some quite early #art for ch4.

- I don’t know why we decided to make one of the biggest worlds in Metroidvania history with such a small team, but we did.
- Reposted by Jean Canellas 🏳️🌈Honestly, there's not a real reason to play this patch unless you want to help us out. By the way, it was mentioned above, but we would like to give a status update on Chapter 5 soon.

- Reposted by Jean Canellas 🏳️🌈Working with voice actors was the single BEST experience in the entire 8 years of making Death’s Gambit. So much joy, laughter, and magic. Would never trade those memories for a soulless product that’s “cheaper”. You pay for it in other ways by depriving yourself of the process and SO much more
- Here was a secret minigame room you could find. Pollo means chicken in Spanish. Yes there is a "poyo" button. #kirby

- I would like to make a spiritual successor to “The World Ends With You” ds. But like, way more gay. I hope I get to make this one day.
- Just got one!
- Reposted by Jean Canellas 🏳️🌈Before the game came out, I thought people wouldn't really care about Tenna and simply dismiss him as a budget Spamton. I'm glad everyone seems to like him just fine. I see those two as intentionally similar characters who mutually enhance each other. You know, like Spy vs. Spy.
- Back on the table where I first started coding Death’s Gambit in 2012
- Thanks Terminalmontage, I owe you my life youtu.be/43yyNypLixI
