Hi. I'm julien ! I'm 28, from Paris, France and I'm a professional Gamedev.

I like to make games, visual stuff and physical stuff.
Beside that I love cycling, playing baseball and stargazing.

My fav emoji are 🔥🌸👀
Back when i was a teenage, around 2011, French High school Diploma required every student to do a big presentation on a topic of their choice.

I did mine on AI.

For extra point, and because i was a nerd, i built a chat bot demo.

which is why anyone who defaults to having respect for other people and their work rejects ai without exception
the discourse on what jobs are acceptable to replace with generative AI reveals a lot about what we think of other people's jobs

HAPPY NEW YEEEAAAaaaaa:

start saying "happy new year" whenever you want; if you stop producing sound before 2026, you are eliminated. Whoever started the earliest among those still playing in 2026 wins and now has a chance at a guaranteed 2027 win too
I need everyone to make a shitpost game that fits into at most 3 posts on here before the end of the year otherwise thr sun will not rise again
Not enough shitpost games though

For Xmas, I only got my brother a gift card, but I felt bad about it so I wrapped it in an treasure hunt / escape game.
In the end he licked it a lot, took him about 40 min to solve and I only had to help him with finding the last box cause I hid it too well.

Networking tip: Spend 10 years attending events to get to know everyone, get known, have your big groups, then wait for a pandemic and 5 years of not attending any events to wipe that all out, plus the one online tool you used to stay in contact between events to go full nazi and collapse. It's fun!

Networking tips: Make friends with a lot of people in the industry. Never used these relationship for anything professional because you're shit at keeping contact outside of events.
