I think a trap many artists (+ teams) make is to overestimate the importance of the quality of singular assets, and undervalue how they are assembled, how they are blended together.
You get a lot more out of a consistent, harmonious environment with a good mix ratio than with only good models.

This improved depth fade uses a dedicated depth texture map to offset values with RemapValueRange, PixelDepth, and SceneDepth, for a more volumetric result #UnrealEngine5 #VFX #realtimeVFX #gamedev

accidentally murdered my favorite and most loyal Cult of the Lamb follower in a ritual because I didn't clock onto what "transfer to a higher realm of existence" meant

So, I've chosen to take voluntary redundancy at Sumo Group.
Whilst I had an opportunity to stay, this is the right time to bet on myself, and start a new chapter.
Got some exciting opportunities on the table, but open to speaking to folks about Community/Social/Comms roles. Let's chat!

It's awesome to see a game like Split Fiction come out with positive reviews, we need more unique experiences, more funky camera trickery, more co-op mechanics, more games that use the fact they're *a game* to do cool and engaging stuff.

I honestly believe AbleToPlay is one of the most exciting things to be built in the accessibility space, and I have been grateful to see it grow over many months. It's amazing how well it works, and how obvious it is in hindsight that this should exist.

Tiptoeing down a path of creative work like, "what if this is the wrong direction?"
Dude, just sprint in that direction, even if it does end up being the wrong path you got some cardio out of it.

Here's a solid thread on games business, which is really worth reading if that's what you're doing.
I've learned (and I am still learning) how to run a game studio for the last seven years doing both creative and biz. Here's a list of guidelines that work for us and might be useful for others that were lessons I've incorporated with our experience and guidance from others. 🧵
