A Pound of Flesh link: https://karagna.itch.io/a-pound-of-flesh-concept

For this year's Global Game Jam, I decided "Hey why don't I solo dev an entire visual novel in Renpy with absolutely 0 prior knowledge in coding?"

And so I did! Presenting A Pound of Flesh (part 1), a short vn where you play as Agatha, a girl who begins working at a quaint butcher shop.

It's around 20 mins play time, and if there's interest I'll most likely add on more sections as well! Right now you can only play up to the end of week 1 because I only had 36-ish hours to code and draw the entire thing. Let me know what you guys think if you play it!

Macca Masquerade by The Gek Games

Unmask the Cult in this Strategy RPG

Last month, I made a demo project for the Global Game Jam 2026 called Macca Masquerade. Since then, my brother and I have been adding new features and updating the project, and it's now officially complete and ready for you to play!

In this strategy RPG, play as the assassin Kali on her mission to infiltrate the Macca Masquerade and find the elusive cult leader: Maester Beckon. Challenge attendees to duels and unmask them to uncover clues.

Each time you defeat one of the members, you receive their mask, each of which has unique abilities and updated stats that will add more strategic opportunities for you in battle.

🎮 Play the game here!

That's a wrap on another Global Game Jam! The theme was "Make me laugh", so Doug and I embraced the silliness with this one. https://shadowmint.com/ggj2024/ Play with a friend, chuck stuff on your jousting lance and make the king laugh. You can check what stuff he finds funny by showing items to him. Also, you can steal stuff from your opponent's lance or get in their way, throw stuff around and other shenanigans. Then joust and see whose won the king's favour! --- I leant hard into the PS1/N64 style graphics on this one! The music was stupid fun to make as well (we went with the mouth noises diversifier, so I had to sing the music, lol, feel I should apologise in advance). Oh! ...and credits: Doug: Coding, voice for the king & sfx Me: Art, animation, level building, music Still amazed there was just enough time for us to get some cinematics in there for the joust sequence, but I'm so glad we did! ...and the corgi, because there's always got to be a corgi. (also kinda thinking about doing a post on the weird game projects Doug and I have made over the years?) (or just like, here are all the corgi cameos?)

I participated in Game Jam again! Here's all the art I did for our game. Plus for the first time I did the writing!

One gory picture under the cut. It's based on Goya's Saturn Devouring His Son so be warned

Earlier this year I worked on the promo art for the local Global Game Jam.

It involved making a few different renders of these low poly characters that represent common roles in game jams.

I learned a lot while fiddling with ripped MGS models and I got to apply much of that knowledge when making these characters.

Audio Witch & Programmer Wizard. They got lucky I had time to animate them a little.

Game Design Sage & Graphics Rogue. They weren't as lucky.

Get the band together, we're going jammin'!

It even got printed as a massive banner. (which I got to keep)

Bonus pic: Tida being unhingedly in love with it.
