I finally finished my new visual identity and website!
I'm really happy with how everything turned out, and how much of an upgrade this is in terms of both identity and professionalism.
Should be good for at least another 4 years now!

APWOT is beyond amazing. This has to be some of the best writing on games you can find today, and the design on this is simply fantastic. Clearly a labor of love by all involved.
Well done @cazwis.bsky.social 👏

Slept on it, and I still can't believe they gave us fully catered and unfettered access to Edinburgh Castle last night.

One more week to DICE Edinburgh!
I'll be hosting a roundtable on the Wednesday to discuss how we might shape healthy, vibrant studio cultures that will stand the test of time.
Can't wait to discuss this topic with fellow industry leaders as they share their own experiences, insights and stories!

Found a big stick
We stared down some deer

Gamescom is next week, so it's time to start packing!
And while I have all my stuff out, I thought I'd share the list of things that I never leave my hotel without.
Here's my EDC (everyday carry) for surviving gamescom on easy mode:

Proud to share that I'll be leading a roundtable at DICE Edinburgh on studio culture!
The DICE roundtables have proven to be one of the most valuable and insightful experiences at any conference for me, and I couldn't be happier to host one of my own this time.
