Hi new followers! I’m Rob - been in the games industry since 2002. I’m a game and level designer with a love and passion for environment art which I’m working on during my spare time. Don’t have much to show off currently but here’s my published games from the last 22ish years.❤️👍

Now’s the time America - now’s the time for a nationwide strike. These fuckers at the top only understand money - hit them where it hurts and they’ll have to take notice. Always remember- there’s far more of you than them. Good luck - the whole world is watching and crossing their fingers.

Me, a Blender user, waiting for the guy in the tutorial to catch up with me while he uses Max. Yes he's explaining some techniques for the newbies, but it seems the steps needed are a lot more convoluted getting to the same point in Max than Blender.

My Blender 5.0 doughnut attempt - needed a Blender refresher after not even opening it for most of last year! 😅

For full accountability - 2 screenshots of 2 environments I absolutely will go back to and finish in 2026. Bonus 3rd one (outdoor green one) which is a stretch goal 😅

What small (mushroom) dick energy this guy oozes. What an odious repellent PoS. And as for her - she should know that bullies never stop, give them an inch and they'll take a mile.
Doing a brief dip back onto bluesky to say this is one of the most depressing things I've ever seen.

Dont think I opened Blender once last year - too much RL stuff going on that got in the way. But this year, as long as Trump doesn't kill us all, will be different. Suppose I better do the donut thing as a refresher...

No Jenrick gets removed for plotting.
Politics for too many leaders is just a game, and not a moral one.
It’s why people are crying out for hope.

I mean - having properly thought out systems and mechanics implemented in your game at the ground level that help all players and of all abilities would make this totally unnecessary... but what do I know.

Working is at times hard. Caring for/having a parent living with you who has Parkinsons and Dementia is hard. Combining both can be incredibly hard. Luckily my place of work is incredibly understanding which helps massively. Others aren't so lucky and I really feel for those in that situation.

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

I've signed this - it is completely pointless, open to abuse, an unnecessary expense, and probably more importantly another attempt to move us in a more authoritarian direction.

Not that I would probably be asked to go to GDC, but if I was I would politely refuse - I just have no desire to go the US these days... for reasons too numerous to go into but I'm sure you can work it out.

“In Nazi Germany, satirical content was seen as an existential threat to the regime's authority and was systematically censored, controlled, or co-opted for its own propagandistic ends. This suppression was a key component of the Nazi effort to control all forms of communication and public thought.”

This is an utterly fantastic watch and proof that you can change peoples opinions and mindset.
This is exactly what is going on in the UK right now. Labour has for the most part abandoned the working class - they will come back if politicians listen to them and fight on their behalf.

Not content with Level Designing the absolute bollocks off stuff as my day job, I think I might also take part in #blocktober this year…
