Psycho Patrol R Looks good.

Still actively searching!
Would greatly appreciate a signal boost to get this opportunity in front of the right people. 🙏

Looking at games like Eternal Strands breaks my heart.
Years of work for a peak of 700 players.

The industry has changed. Even when done competently, offering the same experiences that have been repeated over and over won't bring them anymore.

Have no idea where I would use this, but this looks so good.

One of my clients, whom I've been working with for a few years, is looking for a Combat Game Designer for a very promising mobile co-op ARPG.

Any advice on how I can signal boost to help reach people with solid industry experience?

#Linkedin at it again.
I don't understand where are those new #Ai developed projects and tools?
Can it LLM create a quick and simple internal tool to automate simple tasks? Yes.
But where are we pushing 500k projects out of the door?

Finally had time for a proper #BG3 playthrough over the holidays.

Me having struggled with dungeon design, It's impressive how Larian's dungeons make functional and lore sense (except Temple of Shar). You can only place so many statues and pots before questioning why the structure exists. #gamedev

After spinning plates nonstop all year, the holiday slowdown fills me with dread. That work withdrawal hits hard.

The Zone is absolutely massive.
I'm all about exploration, but I don't think I have it in me to explore every location in #Stalker2.
Phenomenal work by the environmental artists and designers.

Music shapes the world. Testing lighting effects connected to the music you make in FVC. As you play through a chord progression, the day becomes night. A new day brings a fresh progression to hear. #indiegame #proceduralmusic #automationgame

AI will accelerate an already prominent issue in the gaming industry: regurgitating, mixing, and repackaging exhausted game concepts without even a marginal expansion or progression.
How many times do we expect players to buy another survival game or a reskinned version of Slay the Spire?

I know you can push it with blueprints and lights, but I absolutely love that I can get 200fps in Satisfactory while looking at my monobase. 👷☕

It's Monday, and I've already seen 4 ads for AI features in apps we are paying for enterprise tier. Wonder how long it will take the industry to cycle off the bubble.
