Surprised how much the layout of a page can affect the reading experience 📖 Compared to the digital books, the #ForgottenRealms hardcovers are so much more playful, tactile and fun to flick through. Didn't expect such contrast, /almost/ glad EU had 3-months delay. Newfound love for print! 🤩 #DnD

Instant buy, they are amazing. 😍

RPG tip: Take walks and think about your next game. #dnd #ttrpg

Today I learned submarines have windows 😄 This one is making a pitstop in #Stockholm for the weekend.

Gee, I wonder what the DM who hurriedly dubbed the D&D Multiverse “The Great Wheel" had for dinner that evening... It even has the little plastic stand that keeps the box from sagging 🍕😂 #D&D #dungeonmaster #ttrpg #multiverse

We’ve just launched Arc Raiders! 🚀 A massive collaborative effort by an insanely talented team here at Embark - so proud!! Special shout-out to my lovely @hypathie.bsky.social and her crew for creating such an evocative and approachable UI ❤️ #Arc #Raiders www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpeJ...

In the Nordics, reliance on US email (and the wider stack behind it) is now a strategic risk. 💡 Highlights: DK 89% • FI 92% • IS 97% • NO 96% • SE 91% ⚠️ Risks: AI training, foreign legal reach, geopolitical pressure. 📊 https://proton.me/business/europe-tech-watch#denmark

Visited the Barbican Centre in London over the weekend - strong #LevelDesign ✨vibes✨. Uploaded some ref images - hope it inspires 😊 🔗 midas.blog/barbican #reference #blocktober

#DREM was as perfect a fever dream we could've shared. First time seeing the @auntydonnaboys.bsky.social live - definitely not the last 😂 Thanks for the bellyaching evening of laughs and answering my question during the Q&A ☺️❤️

So glad we are kicking these off - and would you believe it: our #leveldesign blog actually has before-and-after sliders! We're in the big leagues now. 🥳 #THEFINALS #Iteration #blocktober #gamedev www.reachthefinals.com/patchnotes/a...

Last week, for the first time ever, we lost a player character in our D&D campaign. It took me by surprise how real & serious it felt. Genuinely a milestone that gave us all ✨the feels✨ - and yet another reason to love this fantastic hobby ❤️. #DND #D&D #characterdeath #hobby

Genuinely one of the most delightful #Lego sets ever made. Such a fun build - and it's crazy how accurate it feels, for something built out of Lego! Might be an all-time favourite ❤️‍🔥 #wall-e

We're releasing a dev vlog today introducing our fans to 'dynamism', the design philosophy that drove the making of THE FINALS. We hope it gives those interested some insight into what it takes to make an crazy multiplayer sandbox FPS. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjUy...

Today, I turn 30 🥳 Going to have a lovely BBQ to celebrate. Grateful to be surrounded by a loving family, my beautiful fiancée, great friends and our goofy doggo Azula. Life is pretty good :) 🌄 #birthday www.youtube.com/watch?v=n57a...

Instagram’s “Friend Map” sounds like a fun way for friends to share their location. Unfortunately, Meta thinks your friends include Meta's own employees, advertisers, and cops. Here’s why & how to turn it off 🧵 1/5

I wanted an interactive world map to track locations and events for my #D&D campaign. Sadly, I couldn't find anything that wasn't subscription based. So I made my own 😊 - with some help from our AI overlords 🤖. Very excited to expand on this :D #ttrpg #dnd #dm #gm

Rock gnomes were expert inventors and tinkers. They also managed to use their keen intelligence to turn something as generally unexciting as work into a fun and enjoyable expenditure of their time and energy. #dnd #forgottenrealms #Realmslore forgottenrealms.fand...

The curse of averages. They’re the best way to use data to hide the dynamics of a system, the exact thing you want data to help you find.

Really proud to again get to show off some of the Character and Weapon customisation I got to work on for THE FINALS Season 6! @reachthefinals.com youtu.be/7mY-fCTB8cI?...

I’ve been in the industry 20 years this year, and in that whole time this is the classic problem that keeps on giving. The vast majority of industry leaders don’t understand system dynamics, don’t understand non-linear relationships and often don’t understand where ‘good’ comes from. Their….

Do you worry about what your children are doing online? Children today grow up using the internet from a very young age; that isn’t going to change. Instead of growing up fearing the internet, they must be educated digital citizens who can advocate for their interests. proton.me/blog/how-to-...

"Making Apocalypse Now" by @cinematyler.bsky.social features such an incredible level of storytelling, editing, research and love for film. Truly one of the best things I've ever watched. Mind-blowing that this can be viewed for free. youtube.com/playlist?lis... #Documentary #ApocalypseNow

Highly recommend going the #DIY #HomeAssistant route for anyone who cares about their privacy! Forgo the out-of-the-box "convenience" these parasitic corporations offer. Not only is it a fun learning experience, you also have full control over /your/ #hardware. arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025...

It is absolutely soul crushing to have worked on several live service #games that simply disappear when the servers shut down. Our industry sucks at preservation and it only seems to get worse. #gamedev #liveservice starwarshunters.com/news/sunset-...

We’re also looking for experienced Level Designers to bolster our ranks and help us make the best #witcher game ever. If you feel you’re up for that challenge - your kind of crazy may be just to right fit for my team!🔥 Check the opening here: www.cdprojektred.com/en/jobs/7440...

Normalize chasing your dreams in your 30's - - - Learn to draw in your 30's! Learn to cook in your 30's! Open that shop in your 30's! Write that book in your 30's! Start that podcast in your 30's! Pick up that guitar in your 30's! Do the thing in your 30's, or 40's, or 50's! It's never too late.

Really enjoyed the first season of Shrinking & S2 is off to a great start. Glad to have found something fun to watch :)

Holy shit, I am never making bacon in a cast-iron pan again. Oven-bacon for the win!! Perfectly crispy & no sugar residue messing up my cast-iron seasoning 😄

www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYFb... Can't believe I've somehow never heard of this building! Watching the video I swear I've seen the interiors used in some movies (Robocop, Total Recall maybe???) wow what a place.

Attenyion level designers and the like: a small #tip for you: Are you decisions crisp? Andby extensions are your levels “crisp” as well? Chase the crisp

RPG tip: There's no such thing as “official”. No single company holds a monopoly on good game design. Build your own game for your table from many sources. #dnd #ttrpg

Hard agree that "starting over" is often the best thing to do. Chucking a #blockout in the bin so I could take that experience into a 2nd attempt - while removing the irrelevant guff - has been a big part of my #leveldesign process. youtu.be/BMVHI7ZSsqk

I've found that using GIFs is a great way to pitch Level Design & gameplay intent. Using motion to convey depth and dynamics works wonders when showcasing play spaces #ShowDontTell Highly recommend ScreenToGif #LevelDesign #Portfolio #Gamedev

Unexpected side effect of DM'ing for #DnD; A lot of empathy for my old high school teachers. I now know what it feels like to deal with students who refuse to do their homework 🥲 #ttrpg

Super proud of the journey so far. Designing Seoul, Kyoto and Fortune taught me so much - I cannot wait to continue that trend well into the future. Happy 1 Year Anniversary #THEFINALS www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xrj...

We need a word for ‘the reassuring glow one feels when seeing a visual glitch or an imperfect collider in a mega budget AAA game, the presence of which demonstrates that we are all human, and while the search for perfection elevates, we do well to forgive our creative short comings’ Shaderfreude?

If there is one book on #LevelDesign I would recommend across the board, it'd be 101 Things I Learned in Architecture School
