Gf wants this bread jar but it is too small to hold bread. I am enraged, what is this meant to be for??

The thing I hate about imposter syndrome is what IF I am actually not good enough

Rider is great because occasionally the suggested names come out with something absolutely ridiculous and it brings me so much joy

After years of programming, I’ve finally bought my first programming book! I usually learn by doing, so it’ll be interesting to see if I actually remember anything I read

We came 164th in creativity out of almost 10k submissions in gmtk jam! Insane!
August 8, 2025 at 5:49 PM
Last couple hours to rate in GMTK jam, and we’re a couple off 50 reviews 🤯

Would appreciate any final reviews if you took part!

Am I insane for agreeing to use Godot for GMTK jam when I’ve literally never even opened Godot before?

I’ve been doing CV reviews for some programmers looking for their first industry role and I just got an updated draft after my feedback. Is this pride I’m feeling? What is this gooey happy feeling lol

In a very unfortunate typo I told my tech director that I’d send him a nude next week

I MEANT NUDGE

I’m in dire need of some silly fun game making, so I’m doing GMTK jam next week it’s happening my dudes

Watch my Impact Day talk where I chat about securing a junior programmer role from bootcamps, internships and mentoring to failures and redundancies

Forever thankful for @manycatsstudios.bsky.social

Does anyone else get this weird empty feeling after big networking events like develop?

Slop is low effort, no heart. Not low budget! There is a big difference
Sorry, I know the word has already outstayed its welcome, but I think the main reason I don't like 'friendslop' is because I associate 'slop' with genAI, and I think it's useful to maintain that specific association. Let that be its rightful home, not as a descriptor for low-budget multiplayer games

Being in the 2.6% of players to complete BG3 in honour mode really hits though
July 6, 2025 at 8:21 PM
Just finished a 7month co-op honour mode run in BG3 where withers kicks me out of the ending party because I was… only wearing pants?

I refuse to believe that game developers just have to accept layoffs as an inevitable part of the industry
July 3, 2025 at 12:43 PM
Looks like another mass of layoffs, restructures and game cancellations. Xbox, Romero etc etc

Can someone smart and business-y tell me why this is a Q3 thing?
July 3, 2025 at 12:41 PM
It’s the last couple days to donate to the pride fundraiser I’ve been running at work. We’ve raised £480 for Mind Out so far, but I’d love to push for a bit more ✨

Please share it around and if you can, throw a few quid at it! It’ll go to a great cause that’s really needed right now

I don't understand. When does the layoff start?

To celebrate — all staff received $7,500 bonus pay, two weeks of paid vacation, and a Nintendo Switch 2
