PMG won the Knickerbocker Award for Best Games Journalism last night at the @nyvgcc.bsky.social! It feels like we've come such a long way since we first launched this thing nearly eight years ago, but winning a journalism award at an event in NEW YORK CITY still seems totally mad to me.

The actual expression I make when deciding where to place my skill points.

Major news time! I recently launched my music composition website, featuring some samples and a contact form for instrumentalists / vocalists / composers who might want to collaborate in future! Samples: tailoredsoundtracks.com Join my roster here: forms.gle/FKR5g1vBX5vc... Reposts appreciated :)

Here's a preview of my first completed video game soundtrack! The full OST includes 12 tracks including 5 distinct ending themes, each reflecting the consequences of the player’s actions. I'll post a link to the finished game when it's published :)

'Sounds Like Fate' - a track inspired by games like Destiny 2, Halo & Elite Dangerous. Probably some Game of Thrones and The Expanse in there too! 🪐 If you'd like me to compose something similar for your game, animation, or film project, drop me an email at [email protected]

Once again, 'make a quick video for socials' has snowballed into learning a new game engine. Enough, brain. Enough.

We're putting together our monthly newsletter! If you have January opportunities for writers, let us know - we're particularly interested in sharing opportunities for writers in the North of England, and for writers of speculative fiction.

I'm stunned that there hasn't been more chatter about Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon as we come into the end of the year? Someone that isn't Bethesda done did Their Own Full Elder Scroll, in the year of our lord 2025. I'd expect that to be a bigger deal!

Thank you to everyone who responded to the UK govt consultation earlier this year. It makes it very clear where the sentiment lies

Congratulations to the entire Nioh 3 production team and my VA colleagues on the premiere of the latest trailer at the awards last night! Actually my second appearance at said awards, after the Black Myth Wukong trailer in 2023.

I wrote something for this about how to write better branching, based on my own experience! It's gonna be a fantastic handbook of thoughts, anecdotes, and advice from some very talented writers, so you should totally sign up right now if you like that sort of thing

For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore. Our review: https://bit.ly/49bVn01

Really hard to whittle down to 10... so I'll consider this a starter pack. *10 Games to Get to Know Me* Clockwise from top left: Elite Dangerous (2014) - My most played game for the last 11 years. 'It's not rocket science...' Morrowind (2002) - My first open world game. Got jumpscared by thunder.

I'm a deeply flawed individual, but I bring joy to the world.

"...or wherever you place your emphasis." I listen to so many podcasts that I must have heard every possible variation of this phrase. There's no one right way... but some sound more natural than others. If you still can't get this or any other sentence sounding right - give me a call! 😁

Jackie Hart: Headhunter will release on 24th October 2025. Wishlist today! store.steampowered.com/app/3509730/... #pointNclick #indiegames

Hi BlueSky friends! I need to be able to afford train tickets to visit my partner for his birthday next week, so until then, my commissions are £30 for a single character bust portrait! Send me your blorbos to draw!

When you try to start a light-hearted game in the family chat... ...but it gets marred by controversy.

Getting the help of the gods is never guaranteed, but a little contribution increases their benevolence. Jackie Hart: Headhunter coming to Steam this October store.steampowered.com/app/3509730/... Starring: @sarahmcmanusva.bsky.social @voicesbyandrew.com and Adam Diggle #screenshotsaturday

The vacation trick worked and I had a full day of directed sessions waiting for me after the conference. And to top it all off, I received this lovely review from one of the clients! 💙 Will share the project when I can!

Networking's never a chore when you're surrounded by people who truly care about what they're creating. Spent a wonderful whirlwind couple of days at Develop:Brighton last week listening to talks and panels, meeting loads of new contacts and bumping into existing ones.

Call for a voice actor! We’re looking to cast a female actress for our next game. Vocal age 25-35, Northern England accent, preferably Mancunian, incl. Pakistani and Indian Mancunian accents. That’s you? Then send a sample to [email protected], marked “casting call”. Paid gig, ofc <3 RTs!

New business cards ready for Develop:Brighton, 8-10th July

No idea why they call it the golden hour. Singapore, 2019

Bring it on, Brighton! Looking forward to connecting with professionals across the entire UK game-making industry, 8th-10th July! If you'll be there, I'd love to discuss your projects and help in any way I can! [email protected]

I've been given permission to announce I voice a character in the English dub of upcoming AAA game, Nioh 3! Many thanks to Morgan at Light Fader for bringing me aboard!

Second year of posting pics of London foxes in May This guy was just hanging out in the middle of the street at 3am

Full of joy and inspiration after 4 days at the One Voice Conference 2025, London. It's surreal but wonderful to go from the isolation of the home studio to being surrounded by super talented, enthusiastic, caring colleagues. Thanks to Gravy For The Brain for putting it all together!

These goats are too smol

They say to never work with children or animals, but I had a lovely time working with both last Friday! Thanks to Lucy Wordsworth for being my on-screen bunny partner in this improvised interactive avatar experience, Tall Bunny and Sonic for their relentless enthusiasm, and Target3D for inviting me!

Congratulations to Stubby Games for launching the playtest of Void/Breaker! Sometimes it can be a challenge to accurately convey the feeling of playing a roguelite fps, but their launch trailer nails it! Request access to the demo here: store.steampowered.com/app/2615540/...

This has just been added to our local play area. I really want to give it a whirl but have visions of being the comedy segment on the evening news.

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked, "If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?" Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

In-person dubbing sessions have a different energy to them. It's like playing Guitar Hero, only with an audience and higher stakes! It makes for a very intense few hours and you emerge wondering where all the time went! Many thanks to Morgan at Light Fader and Adrenaline Studios for having me!

I've been sitting on this for 2 months and if I don't just post it I never will... so here we go. gofund.me/a0504391

The least flattering lighting, but great to meet my @typhonmediapro.bsky.social castmate Doug in person a couple of days ago! Lovely to put a person to the online persona after several years! Can confirm, top geezer 🙌
