hello! freg!
8 panel comic P1: A title panel; borderless. We see a highly stylised --and decidedly grompy looking-- frog sitting atop a lily pad. The overly exuberant title above them reads "Hello! FREG!" P2: A close up on Freg, as their mouth opens slightly, a look of realisation on their face. The text reads: "Oh! Freg has something to say!" P3 & 4: Back to the POV form the first panel, as Freg gradually hinges open their jaw impossibly wide, almost 180 degrees. P4: We dolly back, as an absolute ream of text spews forth from the open mouth. "Jumping no longer elicits the feeling of sheer joy in me like it did, once upon a time. However, jump I MUST, because what else can I do? You ask my, why, then, would I continue to jump? Dear reader, you may as well ask me the same of breathing." "To not jump is to admit defeat. To give up entirely." P6: We switch to a dramatic low angle, with a fish lens effect, as Freg stares up at the sky, which is filled with cotton candy clouds. P7: Freg --saying "I must away"-- "jumps" off the pad. I say "jumps" because Freg looks like they are simply being dragged by a computer mouse into the air. P8: We end on a borderless panel, far back from the lily pad. The only sign Freg existed are a few ripples in the water around the pad.

Love making trees
My voxel take on a Golden Chain tree, commonly found in the UK. Not so fun fact, the bark is toxic to dogs a voxel model of the most common tree in the UK, the London Plane. It was a tree bred to grow in the UK as it is strong enough to thrive in winter and root through clay ground.

free advice for game developers: try to make the next smash hit video game, such as grand theft auto. if you do, you'll be making more than just a video game – you'll be making millions of dollars

Yes!! If your game is going to be localized and you have text displayed in game on assets - IE posters, objects - make sure that it can easily be swapped with localized content.

Likewise, make sure your puzzles aren't only solvable with colors or audio clues for accessibility reasons.

It's good to check your puzzle designs to make sure they'll work when localised into different languages.

I wish I was allowed to be 1/100 as bad at my job as these people are that are in charge of massive teams and ppl’s livelihoods. Omg.

I legitimately didn't know they were competing with Steam and it's crazy to me that they burnt so much money on what sounds like something with very little (or wildly misguided) market research.

remember that time when I wrote an article explaining how and why alt right types like to infiltrate wholesome communities and how to be resilient against that behavior?

Doodle of a Sylveon cornered in a shower and being rinsed, throwing its head back and letting out a woeful wail; reminiscent of most cats’ reactions to being washed

just a reminder that bandcamp friday is tomorrow & streaming services are interrupting music streams with ai generated shit, flooding the database with artists that don't exist in any way other than profiting the platform owners

so instead of paying a monthly fee, buy an album or two each month ok

Just one week left on my contract with Blizzard! I'll soon be open to freelance and fulltime work in games and games-adjacent media.

My contract with Blizzard sadly ends in just two weeks. Come October, I'll be looking for fulltime or contract work as a senior writer or narrative designer. If you need someone who can write sharp characters, poetic prose, and emotional stories, I'm available! www.hazelmonforton.com
hazelmonforton.com dr. hazel 🐇 @hazelmonforton.com · Jul 8
It's #portfolioday! I'm presently a senior narrative designer at Blizzard, but before that I was at Bungie and Arkane. I wrote for the Writer's Guild award-nominated Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, and a bunch of critically acclaimed seasons and expansions in Destiny 2.
