Hi there! I'm Russ!

• I make games 🕹️ in Godot and Unity and tools 🛠️ in Clojure (Babashka)

• I wrote a pretty-printer for GDScript (log.gd repo, also in the asset library) that I now can't live without.

• 🎮 I've launched two games in 2024:

  • Dot Hop (steam, github) is a grid-based puzzle game - simple but challenging, and hopefully not too hard.
  • Dino (steam, github) is a mashup of my jam entries from last year - platformers, some top-down, some beat em up, some overcooked?! I'm molding it into.... something... and launching in Q1!

• My jam games are available on itch.io: russmatney.itch.io

• 🎥 I share devlogs on Youtube, and I stream live-coding on twitch.tv/russmatney

• 🌱 My blog is a meandering org-roam exported mind-garden: russmatney.com

I'm working on games and tools full-time - I want to build up enough support to do this indefinitely, and keep the source open to everyone.

You can support me via:

• Github sponsors

Log.gd is a pretty-printer for GDScript.

It's a drop-in replacement for print(...), and it adds sensible spacing, indentation, color, and line-numbers to your logs. For me it helps a ton with eye-fatigue and debugging.

Dot Hop is a grid-based puzzle game. It started as a PuzzleScript jam game, but I've reimplemented it in Dino to add several themes, more puzzles, and friendlier UX.

Wishlist Dot Hop on steam!

I'm focusing on Dot Hop lately to get my first Steam launch done with a reasonably scoped game. Wish me luck!

I'm driving towards a full Dino Steam release - wishlist Dino on steam!

Dino started as a Godot monorepo and sandbox for game jams and writing my own addons, but it is transforming into a genre-mashup of sorts.

A Clojure and Babashka based window-management tool, for bringing repl-driven development to your development environment, on Linux and OSX.

A clojure (and babashka) interface for interacting with org files.

     

Come watch my streams on twitch to see these in action!

• Emacs (via Doom)
• Org-Roam
• Godot (4) and GDscript
• Aseprite (pixel art)
• Clojure (as much as possible)
• Babashka (for all things scripting)
