Yesterday marks my 5th year of being on GameJolt.

It’s been half a decade, and I still love this platform because it’s lightweight and excellent for content surrounding gaming.

I also made this art for my 5th #spawnday. Spent a few hours using ProCreate.


February 6th, 2021, at 9:26 PM is when I joined GameJolt because I thought it looks cool (I was 15 years old at the time), and it was an alternative platform to post my games with far less strict guidelines.

Screenshot was taken from one of my old videos. This is what my profile looked like when I joined.

I manly post on Scratch at the time but GameJolt is excellent.

I did got in trouble a few times before but that was only because I’m still learning how this place works. And yeah, I went a bit too silly on the emails. Haha.


As of now, this is now my main platform because as you would expect, I grew out of the Scratch platform. Not only because it was mainly targeted for kids but also because it’s very limited in terms of game dev. TurboWarp allows much higher power and control, so that’s also still my main tool I use to create my games.

And GameJolt is a place a socialize, while also being a place to post games, too. It’s perfect.

This is a platform I’m continuing to stay for the long term. And perhaps, I might finally start selling my games in the future. Not soon, but one day.


Not much else to say, but I’m glad I found this. I met so many wonderful people here and so many creations these communities have made.


That’s about it. Take care ya’ll.

I was looking for good video editors other than Clipchamp as a Windows alternative to VN for my iOS devices and my Mac, and I came across this.

I was initially interested, until I realized really basic features, even 60 FPS, were locked behind a paywall.

Really shows how they love AI this much; they still believe it's a "foundational" technology and it positively impacts the world.

I need @Danyo_ to send an assassin to teach them a lesson or something.

Pretty strange that some portions of the game have no voice acting to some extent.

I'm 90% sure other people skip a lot of dialogues because of how unfathomably HUGE this game is.

IT TAKES GUTS TO INTERVIEW @Lester_Tellez!

I just recently discovered MistWarp, which is a fork of TurboWarp that really has very good amount of additional options and customization.

UI changes is something I always wanted because I grew tired of Scratch's vanilla UI designs.

Also yeah, new scene.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

Really glad changes like this are rolling out.

That's cute, but do you feel the need to go out of your way to commit this much towards AI?

Another issue is that Copilot 365 hallucinates more than the main Copilot, so it's not that reliable.

I'm still patiently waiting this obsession to stop.

This is a positive change to our society. Real human-made works should present as it always was.
