An actual Sully Update: been plugging away on getting public windows, linux, and OSX demos out for Sully!

Also… I was on two panels at PAX over the weekend!

Aiming at end of month, let’s see how this goes

(might just be an open beta demo to collect crash reports from people, but that’s still good)

Sully’s beta is now fully playable on the steamdeck as a native linux app

Working right now on getting the Demo builds building and setting up a deployer to Steam as a private beta

Been tackling a lot of errors on the Linux build of Sully / fixing up the build scripts so they work on Windows and Linux for both Release and Demo builds of Sully!
Two nights ago my Windows Buildbot decided that it no longer liked custom git commands outside of the checkout Github Action so I’ve been diagnosing that! (My Linux Buildbot is perfectly happy still)
This is all in preparation for an OSX build (which dozen of people will use. Dozen!)

(The Linux build will be much more popular due to the Steamdeck)

Also Ustor has been doing a lot! And our animator Val has been killing it lately! Check out this WIP!

I queued up 3 weeks of social media posts in Fedica in prep for an imminent Demo announcement! It was 2 hours for 13 posts which is less than 10 minutes per to queue up (which is pretty good) but it discounts all the image/video collection time too

The less glamorous part of gamedev -_-

I mean: look at all them!

Oh also did some build system work and tried (unsuccessfully) to diagnose the OSX auto-crash problem
