My Bluesky and a Little Update
12 months ago
Seeing everybody else switching over and remembered I already have a bluesky account, so check me out over there if you want.

I barely touch twitter in the first place (or bluesky), honestly, ever since I left and came back I've been having a really difficult time posting and staying active on furaffinity too. Since twitters has always been a hellhole, and even FA is kinda in a sketchy place right now, figured it probably wouldn't hurt looking back into my bluesky and posting stuff to that.
This doesn't mean I'm leaving FA again (I learned some very important lessons the hard way), but I haven't been super active on here anyways, and it'll probably continue being that way sadly.
Sorry you guys don't really see me anymore, I just have a really hard time motivating myself to upload art, or even make more finished art that is upload worthy in the first place. I dunno if it'd help, but maybe the more quick twitter-like format of bluesky will help me be able to post more, but I can't promise that.
Honestly I guess I've just lost interest in posting and watching numbers go up.
Anyways, I guess since I'm here, might as well give an update on how I'm doing. We got moved out of a old, black mold infested farmhouse and into a better home, so I'm now in a safer and more stable position.
I did a couple commissions, those were really fun and I'd like to do more. I should also probably looking into doing some trades again, but I haven't felt like going out and searching for people to do trades with.
Also started learning programming and making games, but you probably already know that. Uhhh our Gain Jam 2024 entry "Brewing Cat" got 5th place and the "Best Art" award, so I'm really happy with that! ^w^ Currently now I'm just working on another game of mine whenever I can, this is probably what I'm going to be spending most of my free time on. So while I may not be pumping out much art and animations for you guys, I got a sick ass game cookin' that I think all of you would love. (Since I'm talking games, might as well drop my WG and itch here https://forum.weightgaming.com/u/ja.....ctivity/topics https://itch.io/profile/jacotomo )
I'm trying to think what else... I've been attempting to make music for my game in beepbox whenever we're riding to work and have nothing to do. It actually kinda sounds decent, so idk people will probably get to hear it in the future and give me a better idea of how well I did. I've always wanted to make music, but it's really hard to start, especially when you're an adult and aware of how much you suck. >w> BUT YEAH might end up becoming a musician too, cool.
Yeah, I think that's it. Overall, I'm just spending my free time making games and doing the occasional commission.
I'm gonna end my rambling here, thanks for reading through this journal and sticking around, even when there hasn't really been much of a reason for yall' to stick around ^w^ <3

Don't worry about the art thing and just focus on what makes you happy! I think Brewing Cat was the only game I played during the game jam and I really liked the animations for rubbing the character's stomach! If you keep working on games instead of individual commissions than we'll still support you regardless! ❤
I enjoy working on commissions too, it helps me get more invested in the artwork I'm making when I'm working with another person. I just struggle creating for myself or upload fodder.
