Games industry needs to change. Sorry to all those who lost their jobs.

Coming back to bluesky after a long hiatus. Some thing about me
- Passed my Viva in Designing games with children. Now a doctor of games 😁
- Working on Games/Digital Tech for Health and Education.
- MTG Whatnot streamer (very new)
- Presented and won best demo paper at IDC25

At #IDC2025, demos highlighted the power of child-centered design—AI pals, board games, STEM kits & more. Fast pitches + lively discussions = big inspiration! Making complex ideas playful, tangible & meaningful for kids.

If you're a fan of board games (or skirmish games) do try Halo Flashpoint by @manticgames.bsky.social
It's a really well designed versus game with that 'Halo' feeling.

Turned on my PS4 for the first time in nearly 3 years and it got so confused

Happy new year folks!

I started DMing this year. A pirate #dnd5e adventure. I've been slowly learning how to craft the world and experience inspired by the amazing @sherlockhulmes.bsky.social and the @highrollersdnd.bsky.social folks. Can't wait to see what HR brings in next year!

In my first few weeks of my new Research role, I got to travel to Newport to speak with NHS Gwent about digital tools for neurodivergent care and data governance. Key points around:
- Access to tools
- Accessibility considered
- Co-production approach where all key stakeholders are considered

Today marks 1 month of my new job at University of Glasgow as a Research Assistant on a part time basis.
Exciting project on integrating digital health tools into the NHS.

Hello to my new followers on here! I am looking for a few more participants to take part in my PhD study. In this instance I am particularly interested in speaking to participants who identify as female.
