I don't have the proper words to say more than this now but
I was just laid off. My role at Giant Squid is being eliminated.
If your studio is looking for an environment artist, please let me know ASAP. I have 5+ years of experience.
thank you

and much like in game dev, my identity hinges on legacy artifacts that i dare not touch because i'm pretty sure something will break if i do
Being queer is kinda like being a gamedev in that most days you’re just figuring it out as you go

the game hasn't had any updates in well over a decade which is a shame imo, it had so much potential

Always be wary of the technical/non-technical-person divide; it's a fucked power dynamic. Being more "technical" should not put you in charge or beyond the scrutiny of the artists and designers and audio people and animators and everyone else

Every time I see talk about accessibility, it's about people with physical limitations. And that's good to make your game accessible to them.
But to me, accessibility is also making your game accessible to people who can't afford a new computer.
Efficiency is accessibility.

new video in which the Leftist Cooks remind us that we're all just playing pretend at this 'adult' thing. you know, like kids.

New video, in which the Leftist Cooks analyse annoying comments & the nature of insults, explore the idea of children as a disenfranchised cohort, and give an introduction to the fascinating anti-colonial world of philosophical Childism.

Here’s an idea for you to mull over: I could write music for you. You could give me money and I could do it. The music would be good and done in a reasonable timeframe and everything. Just something to consider
