Getting ready to publish a new Flash game on Newgrounds in 2026.
Getting ready to publish a new Flash game on Newgrounds in 2026.
Apparently the Newgrounds API lets me unlock NG medals even when the game is not being hosted on NG. This allows silly things like requiring players to buy the full game on Steam to unlock medals. I'm not gonna do that, but it seems to be possible.
Found some unused sound effects and added 13 more cat sounds to the game.
Super proud of this splash screen.
It doesn't drop any frames while loading assets, and uses your cosmetic settings. Much better first impression.
My most viewed YouTube short is now a 6-second long outtake. The algorithm insults me.
Last minute but very impactful optimisation: fixed the white screen that appears at the start of Find Matt's Cats while it's loading assets. Now you get an animated splash screen with a cat.
Preparing the Newgrounds version of the Find Matt's Cats demo. Compressed it down to 50mb without much noticeable difference.
Watching Find Matt's Cats videos on Chinese YouTube.
I suspect this is an old integrated GPU just not handling certain effects correctly.
Watching someone play my game, everything seems to be running well, then occasionally something like this happens
The YouTube algorithm gives me psychic damage.
The site is called KEY mailer and I have no idea how to input Steam keys. The core feature is buried somewhere under walls of sales tactics.
The site KeyMailer used to be moderately helpful when I launched EBF5 - a few content creators got keys and it was very little effort to use. Now the site looks incredibly sussy and pay-to-win. Hard to find anything and most features are paywalled now.

Mozu and Anna with their clothes and weapons switched. Mozu is determinedly aiming a bow and arrow, while Anna is awkwardly gripping a naginata, thinking of a laughing Matt.
Mozu Fire Emblem and Anna Epic Battle Fantasy clothes swap comm for @mozudyne.bsky.social :3
Here's an enthusiastic Find Matt's Cats sneak peak, from Switzerland, in German!

I have received devastating news.
I complained about YouTube's search before, but something good I noticed is that if I search for Matt's Cats, and there's a video about many Steam demos, YouTube takes me straight to the correct timestamp for my game. I like this.
I am suffering by missing out.
Make shapes move without AI.
I think doing a 6-hour livestream gave my other videos a big boost in the algorithm. That's kinda cool, but I can't do this full time T_T
One of my shorts passed 10k views for the first time and is still going!
My professional TikToker arc begins now.
I'm serious you guys are gonna be invaded by the US.
I used to be anti-nuke, but now I think every country should have nukes so they don't get invaded by a country with nukes.
Canada needs nukes.
Fanart for @ziyan.wtf
Idk if this ebf related.
Very cool!
Finished my 6 hour stream. Hanging out in this one now:

I'll be livestreaming later today. Maybe I'll include a facecam this time!
