Per jam rules, the assets are all available for public use, and so the art/sound effects/music are under CC-BY-SA-NC, and I’ll probably post the original hi-res character portraits to my website at some point

But what’s in the game is all here in the meantime: https://codeberg.org/technomancy/apotheosis-upload

Character art was done in ProCreate for iPad, tile artwork in Affinity, and audio in Bitwig Studio using Plogue’s Chipsynth64, a Commodore64 emulation

apothesis upload, the game @technomancy and I did for the #lispgamejam, is up https://technomancy.itch.io/apotheosis-upload

it’s a cyberspace hack/n/slash in the vein of Hades/2

it was a lot of fun to work on and I think we’re gonna keep working on it to get it closer to the original vision

just a girl hacking away #lispgamejam

it’s possible I lean on particle systems too much, but I love the emergent results of these things #lispgamejam

believe me, it took a lot of restraint to type “. “ instead of “enter”

sometimes the best way to test something out is to find the easiest way to judge it in context #lispgamejam

new from me on this Bandcamp Friday, a soundtrack to “Which hand?”, a puzzle game from local studio Play Hooky for which I also did the sound effects

https://matthewlyon.bandcamp.com/album/which-hand-original-soundtrack

It’s an interesting game (sadly only releasing on Windows, they provided me with web builds for my testing) about figuring out rules by trial and error.

There’s a sort of mystic/cultish aesthetic to the artwork and in working with them on the aural aesthetic we settled on mostly acoustical instruments. It's the first thing I've done that isn't synth-forward.

Play Hooky has also shown off a really cute (also windows-only) “bag building” game Fairy Circle at the local game dev meetups https://store.steampowered.com/app/3962850/Fairy_Circle/

I’ll have more to say later from my music alt (link in bio) but my album is out, the label calls it “leftfield electronica” and I think that fits, pay why you want on bandcamp and also streaming:

> Lyon has a knack for finding and arranging sounds others would not consider, and somehow forcing them together with his expert songcraft in a manner you're likely to find consistently rewarding.

It’s one of my “five albums to know me”, & I’m very happy with how it turned out
