Hello everyone! Time for one of my favorite times of the year, -GDC- I mean #whatagamedevlookslike time!

My name is Leyla, I’m a producer at SMS, newly married, a part time Voice Actor, and a full time Hello Kitty fan! I’m bi-racial, neurodivergent, and I’m proud to be in this community!
On our way to lax to go on a weeklong trip and our uber driver is asking me how much we enjoyed our time in LA and if we would come back - I can’t believe I give off tourist energy (I can actually but it hurts)

Turned a big corner at work this week, feels like I’ve officially been here long enough to start answering questions easily with the information I’ve gathered. It’s always rough starting out at a new studio when you’re asked a question and it just highlights how much you still have to learn.

Started the Bit by Bit audiobook by Andrew Ervin @andrewervin.bsky.social and I’m getting a little emo at hearing our young little industry studied like the other art forms! And also like the tech history it is!!! What a cool budding and also incredibly old and established industry I work in!!!

This is one of the most rewarding programs I have ever done and I credit a lot of the good stuff that happened to me to this program (and also my hard work! But the program also definitely helped me work hard and work smart!)
Application period for the @igdafoundation.org VE has been extended! This 6-week online program supports game devs from underrepresented communities around the world 🌏

✨ Curated panels & workshops
🤝🏻 1:1 mentorship
🕒 Light time commitment (~2–3 hours/week in Aug–Sept)

💫 Pls RT 💫

They’re playing sentimental game OSTs in West Hall and it’s really hammering home that today is the last day of gdc25 (◡‿◡✿)

In case you didn't catch it at the GDCAs: HIRE A GAME WRITER 💖

Thank you so much @alexaray.bsky.social for reaching out to me to write/lead this silly little skit about a very personal topic (and get to bust out my Sarah McLachlan impression).

Realising we’re more than halfway through GDC2025……… the conference always feels too packed and too busy and yet! Where has the time gone!!

The GDCAs continue to be the best part of every GDC and I mean it when I saw they reinvigorate me to work in games for as long as I can
