I am scared ... I had a bunch of edge cases in my head and had figured out solutions for these.
But I keep finding new edge cases, and honestly, I have currently no idea how to resolve this one.
Because human-authored side projects are still important to learn new things…

I'm working on McKinley, a Mac app for making SF Symbols, launching soon around the end of August!
Do your vector editing within McKinley, or import SVGs from any source. Make variable symbol weights by setting line widths or adjusting geometries. Preview in-app, including animation, and export straight to an asset catalog.

A Future Identity: Away With The Flat
In between of things, while the project is going slowly, I've been thinking about refreshing the look of the samerion.com website, along with giving the project a whole new logo.

#Godot has been around for 12 years now, but I think I've only become really aware of it and learned about specific games made in it relatively recently.
I've been wondering, which were the first "full size" commercial Godot games that got mainstream attention by people not involved in or following indie game development, and when was that?
Big news! 🎉
Earshot Podcasts was officially approved by Apple and launched on Wednesday!
I've been a little quiet because #ACB2026 has kept me busy, but I wanted to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who tested early versions of the app. Your feedback, bug reports, and ideas helped make this launch possible.
If you haven't checked it out yet, I'd love for you to give it a try and let me know what you think.

I just released mipGAM - Game Assets Manager.
A tool built with Godot for Game Developers and Pixel Artists to explore your sprite-sheet collection.
It scans selected folders and animates the found sprites in gallery- and details-views.
This is my first ever release as a solo dev - exciting and nerve wrecking.
Boosts and feedback are highly appreciated.
