I make games.
Senior Game Designer @Ubisoft
Prince of Persia : The Lost Crown
Pinned
Lots of new followers recently! I'm Rémi, a senior game designer at Ubisoft. My latest shipped game was Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, where I worked on combat (👹enemies/bosses), systems , and accessibility (🗺️ screenshots on the map!).
Our story DLC 'Mask of Darkness' is releasing tomorrow!

Time to use this thing for some actual productivity.

Environmental Storytelling.

Simple concept: world design/level art/level design is leveraged to illustrate something about the world and/or its inhabitants. Maybe even help define/redefine the player's relationship to the world.

Drinking with a game director at a launch party. He said something through all the free wine that still sticks with me.

"Making a game is like landing a plane while you are building it, and the plane is on fire."
Everything about making video games is harder than you think.

To compete with Steam you must first:
- Make something as good as Half-Life 1 then 2

- Find a new method of distribution that nobody else has done, at the same time that the old one is dying

- Fail for 5 years with zero competition

- Release killer apps as good as Portal and Team Fortress 2
I legitimately didn't know they were competing with Steam and it's crazy to me that they burnt so much money on what sounds like something with very little (or wildly misguided) market research.

I have not seen that before. Cool! 🤔
I’ve never seen this before! An *inward-indicating* word-balloon tail (that’s the speaker’s right arm descending below the word balloon).

FASCINATING! Does this tail technique have a name? Have folks seen it used elsewhere?? I have so many questions!!! (From HIRAYASUMI, book 3, pg 37)

Allez, pour cette rentrée, je cherche un nouveau taf 👀

Dispo à partir d'octobre, plutôt sur Paris et dans le jeu vidéo, mais je reste ouvert au mode hybride / à distance et à d'autres secteurs !

Si vous avez des pistes ou besoin de plus d'infos, on peut en causer en privé / de visu avec plaisir o/

Equally excited and TERRIFIED to finally do this.

Games journalism is in a rough state, so we've decided to get involved to highlight games that we think pave a positive future for the industry.

And we named the outlet the best/dumbest thing possible.

welcome to noclip_2
IT'S OUR NINTH BIRTHDAY 🎉

So we're launching a brand new channel - dedicated to discovering new games that push our industry forward, previews of exciting new titles and reporting on the issues that face gaming today.

everyone talks about inverting controllers vertically, but i am wondering: who among us inverts horizontally? why???? vertical makes sense (i am one of you!!) but i cannot wrap my head around why someone would invert horizontally ??

(looking for answers to write about this for @aftermath.site!)
