Projector/home cinema setup for my bedroom was easily the best investment I made this year 😪

Back to my project! Fine tuning some camera stuff (I am very proud of how dynamic it's slowly becoming) and playing around with the earliest beginnings of some actual level design.

If there's one thing indie dev specifically has taught me it's empathy. I will never ever ever complain about a bad camera in a 3D game again.

A few months ago I spoke about a game I'm assisting on where we have a plan for if the creative director is captured or murdered. This is that game, and Rasheed is that Creative Director. We don't know how the game affects his safety, but he wants to go through regardless. Any support helps!
After years away from game dev, I couldn’t stay silent about my people’s dehumanization. I made Dreams on a Pillow 🍉a game inspired by a famous Palestinian folktale about the 1948 Nakba.

I’m crowdfunding it now—please back & share!

Someone smarter than me please help me understand how to start designing 3D platformer levels 😭 are there any particularly good resources/places to start?

Today was my last day at Playground! V sad to leave so soon, but that London-Leamington commute hollowed me out looool. 5 hours a day breathing in diesel fumes and brake dust left me _constantly_ exhausted. But thankful to have gone through it, and super excited for the next job 🤞🏾

Secretly, Sonic Dream Team is one of the best Sonic games, full stop

If I wanted to get an iPad purely to use Procreate, what model should I be looking at? I'm sick of my dodgy XP-Pen tablet and want drawing to actually feel nice

Okay, I am doing a self-promo and, considering the timing, I'd really appreciate a share.

I'm Dan! I am a programmer and designer on I AM YOUR BEAST.

I am unbelievably proud of it, it's probably the best game of my career so far, and it launches in 6 DAYS from @strangescaffold.bsky.social
