The timing of my new start isn't lost on me. It feels unfair to be docking in such a promising harbor at a time when so many teams are being gutted, and so many devs are struggling.

Ubisoft released a color blind simulation tool today, called UbiChroma.

The free and open source tool enables developers to test for color blind accessibility issues in real-time. Fitting existing workflows, it can help catch color blind issues early.

I think that perhaps the best revenge you can take in a world that seeks to tear you down is simply to keep creating.

It's been almost a decade since I left Monolith to work at Guerrilla, and I only worked there for about 1.5 years, but that studio was and will always be special to me. This one really, really hurts.

In hindsight.. Janet was peak NB rep. Like I love the cyborgs and androgynous assassin types, but there is something so Real and Important and (for me) Relatable about how she just Is, and looks femme-coded, but Isn't A Girl (and never stops reminding everyone of that).

Murdercat pretty much ignores what's on any screen at all times, but... I'm playing through Death Stranding, and he got SUPER INTERESTED in one of the Dads Mikkelsen cutscenes. Like, climbed up in front of the TV making little grunting noises and wiggling his head around.
