I had the opportunity to work as a texture painted on Valorant's Reckoning cinematic!
It was a big challenge working on Omen's textures since he has so many different materials and small pieces, but it was great!
Huge thanks to Lightfarm for having me on the project.

The latest version of the demo includes our very first Dream Eater boss fight and playing this makes me feel like we have a real game on our hands. Corpse Processor is basically an exit exam to check if you understand parrying, because we want you to use all the abilities going forward.

If you're looking for work in gamedev, here's a thread of guides I've written about everything from setting freelance rates to writing a good cover letter
I've been in gamedev for over 13 years and been on both sides of the interview table a lot, so these are all the things I wish I'd known

Why does 'finding the fun' fail so often as a design strategy?
#gamedesign
New designers are told to prototype and 'find the fun'. But the naive version of this is a garbage tactic that mostly results in poorly thought out prototypes that are never going to converge on gameplay.

After opening up blender as a first timer yesterday and closing it an hour later in a light rage this is too relatable.

10th anniversary Journey thread, recreated:
I was the art director of thatgamecompany's Journey. It set the course of my career and my art. I'm forever thankful to the community of players and their incredible love for the game. This is a thread comparing early dev images and how things shipped.
