Hello everyone. Christmas is coming, so children are counting the days until the gift delivery. But why wait until the 24th to enjoy some presents? Why not enjoying the whole month1? Comes in the scene Advent Children calendars. To each day its treat or small toy, an appetizer for what to come.

A small note on this post: there is a good music to listen while reading this blog post and I can confirm as I’m typing this post while doing so: 300 MB, bu Neil Cicierega. youtube link. I didn’t know to start this blog post, but here it is. I got myself a “new” laptop. After my current one didn’t survive its first coffee cup, I was for a few weeks without a computer anymore, only with smartphones and a Raspberry Pi. …

And it all started with a tileset and a bet with a friend – Me. Everything starts with exposition It’s that day again. The Ritual. Today, another child will be given this challenge, this task. How many times have I seen those children leaving this place to never come back? Three, four? What’s the deal with the Ritual? What’s the deal with sending children and not us, the guards?

Hello there. I said in an earlier posts I had things to write off on this dusty place of a blog. Well, why not start with the biggest personal project I currently work on? …

Wait, it was that easy? - Myself. Hey there. If you’re reading this blog post, it means the v4 has been deployed on Retroactive/Rétro-actif. It took me roughly ten minutes1, which was took me by surprise. I’ll still have to iron out the remaining kinks, like the lack of OpenGraph to get better integration in social media sites2 or the lack of thumbnail in the index page, which is discussible. …

Hello there. Welcome in the Retroactive blog v4, I hope the wait was worth it. Do you happen to be struct by the blank canvas issue? The plain canvas that holds a creator from doing the first move? I also live that. But something also interesting with me is that I love gathering those canvases. …

Hello there. First blog post of 2019, feeling like writing again. This time in english. I’m progressively moving from my native tongue for the lingua franca for multiple reasons -the main one being the desire to hone that skill- and what better subject I could start this year than talking a new project, right, right? A tale of royalties of barren territories Nuclear Throne is among my favorite games. It’s a quick’n’dirty twin-stick shooter in a post-apocalyptical setting where a ragtag band of mutants fight climate and hordes for the long desired and mysterious Nuclear Throne. …

Hello. I’m writing this blog post to mention the fact I’m opening up an old and abandoned project’s sources for anyone’s curiosity. It was an attempt at porting a Pico8 project to Love2D for now forgotten reasons. It ended up as a sandbox project to test a few things. The source is here : Github Here's a screenshot of how it looked at one point And I’m going to copy the README of the source repository I just wrote for people that don’t want to check it out on the link. …

Hello everyone, this blog post is an attempt of a motnhly report of my Pico-8 weeklies. A bit late, though, I planned it to be posted around early February. If you’ve been following me on social networks, you could have seen me posting every Friday a new Pico-8 sketch since the first week of January.
