I don't know @castpixel.bsky.social but their art is always a delight on my timeline.
Senior illustrator, with 20 years of experience and a specialty in game art.

I haven't been able to find a paying project for months. Can you help? Every share is appreciated.

This is good advice by the way.

In Brazil. So far it's nothing like the film.

I'm always fascinated by the race question in British forms. What's the point in making categories so narrow that even a plain white dude like me has to select "Other"?

Another fun live recording of @lateralcast.com. Some highbrow art history about Hans Holbein the Younger's 1533 painting The Ambassadors served on a bed of cock jokes. Don't get that mix anywhere else.

Lovely to get together again for an #EscapeRoom in London. Slightly easier to get to than the Belgian countryside...

I would buy a management sim about tax law from Size Five Games but this looks like an incredible lineup even for normal people.

Stop what you're doing and book a trip to Torchdale's "Monster Mashers" in Belgium. Then don't read anything else about it so you don't get spoiled too much. It's an incredible >2 hour experience. My mind has blown. #EscapeRooms

Met some of my favourite YouTubers at DASH this weekend. #CrackingTheCryptic

It's me on a hill in a silly outfit - must be DASH again. #playdash #dash12

Had a fantastic day helping to run the London edition again. Lots of great people & great puzzles, thanks to everybody involved!

Knives Out 3 isn't out yet so I watched The Residence instead. Loved it! Can recommend. #whodunit

This is making some good points.

Stop reinventing the wheel. The web was doing just fine before your bloated frameworks crawled out of the sewer.

Can't believe it's already been a week since leaving #gamescom behind. Such a great time has been had, meeting so maybe wonderful people from the world of games.

Great Humble Bundle with some really clever #puzzle games. (And some that I haven't played yet that are probably also very clever.)
For the next few weeks we're celebrating 12 years of Draknek & Friends. We've got a few exciting things going on, including:

🎂 The Developer Steam Sale
🎉 A Humble Bundle of all Draknek & Friends games
🎊 12 years, 12 games giveaway

If you know me, I will have told you this already, but just in case: Both of these games are excellent.
The Black and Blue Bundle is now available on Steam.

The bundle comprises the inky black odyssey Inscryption by Daniel Mullins Games and the architectural adventure Blue Prince by Dogubomb.

Buy the Bundle now: store.steampowered.com/bundle/56346...

Can confirm that you get a pretty nice view of London at Horizon 22.

That's it from #gamescom this year. Once again it was so much joy meeting all the great creative talented friendly people there. Hugs to you all!

Back in Cologne, investigating #gamescom.

Country / region identifiers are hard, Ryanair revisited.

Switzerland under "A" in the list of EU countries (just above Gibraltar's "A" entry). And Faroe Islands prefixed "Von der Inselgruppe". 👍
