Playing Hades 2, I’m so impressed. The entire package, from the music to the characters and backgrounds, as well as the gameplay itself, is exceptional. I highly recommend it.
Trying the new procreate brush update. They seem nice but I’ll stick to the brushes I like.

My first Pixel art wallpaper illustration. This was done for a work project. Drew it on procreate, exported with pixaki to scale it up.
had a lot of fun with this, pixel art has a different set of challenges.

It used to be that a company was seen as successful when the headcount increased. Soon it will be reversed, firms will be rewarded based on how few employees they have.

I'm searching for genuine discussions and information on AI's role in deep work within the design field. If there's a community focused on meaningful exchange rather than just monetizing the trend, I need to find it.

Figma's product announcements were fun. The site builder being separate from the ai tool seems kinda odd long term
