Welp, I've just found out that my role has been made redundant 🫠... So I will be looking for work!

If anyone is looking for a 2D/3D Generalist or Art Director for games (particularly specialising in stylised projects!) please shout! From concepts > modelling > animating thru to implementation 💛✨

IT'S NON-STOP TODAY.

Launched 4 hours ago and now the game is in Animal Fest. So go buy it, and other games with animals. 🦆🦉🐘

You like animals, right? Of course you do. Otherwise you'd be a SICKO.

In our indie games we use a curated camera (rather than player controlled), in part so we can construct our worlds to those views.

We are taking pitches for the end of 2026 onwards and we'd love to see your indie games!

We have a history of success in the Simulation / Management / Strategy genres, so games like this are always of interest, but ultimately are open to seeing games from other similar genres.

Snapped from Famitsu July 4th 1986's issue, which features as an amazingly stylized Mario on the cover.
The cover with a painted paper cutout Mario carrying a mushroom and with a huge nose next to a Goomba with a seagull monobrow and a smiley face.

If you're looking for work in gamedev, here's a thread of guides I've written about everything from setting freelance rates to writing a good cover letter

I've been in gamedev for over 13 years and been on both sides of the interview table a lot, so these are all the things I wish I'd known

Hi hello #portfolioDay! Im Sarah, a snr concept artist in games, indi Dev, freelance #cartographer & #TTRPG designer from Scotland. I love being an artist and over the last 15 years I’ve worked on projects like #DeathsDoor, #SpyroReignited, Possessor(s), Campaign Builder: Cities & Towns & more!
A shipwreck on a mountain top, with a Japanese-style noodle bar inside. Secret area of deaths door. a ruined templed inside a cave covered in snow. Exterior and interior concepts for an old rundown bar with stained glass. Inside is a smokie dive with lots of plants and hanging cages for different creatures. Flooded street with a character skating over the water, ruined buildings and tech to either side of the street. Large trees grow through old buildings.

An amazing sculutped ceramic at the Coca Museum in Cusco. The direct English translation of the text reads: "PARACAS CULTURE 700 a.c y 200 d.c A culture that had very Good Warriors, this aspect allowed them to survive for a long time. It's tissues are the most complex of this period and the most beautiful pre-Columbian textiles.
