Silksong is exactly as hard as I could have hoped for. Some of the run backs are literally evil, half of the regular enemies are nightmares, and it’s all perfect for me. Not for everyone, but absolutely for me. Bless you @teamcherry.bsky.social for making exactly the game you wanted to make.

Rathalos is always guaranteed, but damn if its intro in Wilds isn’t cool as FUCK. Love my red idiot.

Can we just throw an extra few hours into every day so I can build a game, make a little money, and get back into the games industry?

Currently having my soul withered by mundane work lol

Ramen on a snowy night hits different, maybe the Midwest can get it after all…

I was interviewed for the NYT article about graphics, and I will say that @jasonschreier.bsky.social is 100% on point in this "response" article. The over-focus on graphics isn't the problem - it's a symptom of mis-management. Mis-management of priorities, of resources, of people, of talent.
Why do video games cost so much to make these days? A recent NYT article pinned bloated budgets on the graphical arms race, but that's only a small part of the equation. The real problem? Rampant mismanagement.

This week's column is a spicy one: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...
Why So Many Video Games Cost So Much to Make
Graphical fidelity is only part of the reason that game budgets have swelled to hundreds of millions of dollars

Hey how do I ‘start’ a personal game project when I’m already working 45-50 retail hours a week, is this even possible or should I just stay focused on not dying

Someone has gotta bite on these resumes I’m sending out 😮‍💨

I’ve tested multiple triple A projects! I designed a game with some industry vets and it’s real! Let me be a QA at least, I promise I’m cool. 💀💀

Trying to put my feet up on the bar at the movies but some kid down the way is doing the same and bouncing their leg like crazy I’m gonna screech

Time to start wiggling my way back into the games industry. Couple years of QA, couple years of design, surely I’ll find work… right? RIGHT??

Nothing hits quite like the 30 seconds of phone time you get while walking back from taking out the trash at your busy job.

Someone point me in the direction of some non-contract QA or junior/associate design jobs, I need back into my real career. :D

If you're games industry and following some folks already, reply with who you are and what you do, and then re-post this or whatever it's called. Let's try and find each other on this new place
