Our Sonic Landscape is the first game audio conference I'm organizing (along with Rachel and Em) in Vancouver. is this VanCity's first game audio con? possibly! lots of my #gameaudio community out there in the city that I know don't have tickets yet. hope I see you there. www.oursoniclandscape.com

Dear God please yes please

Why is it that I'm scared that good things are happening in my life? Feels like I'm just waiting for it all to come crashing down 🙃

Hey there! I’m Ash and I'm a writer/narrative designer working on [NDA] as well as [NDA 2]. I previously wrote for Destiny 2, Call of Duty: BO6 and MWIII, Skullgirls, and Spider-Man 2, as well as some board games for Disney & Marvel. I also write on comics, such as Ringo Award–winning Transphoria.

New pinned! I’m Luca, a Narrative Designer and writer who has worked on games like Borderlands 4 and currently Grave Seasons. I like horror, a good laugh, and space cowboys. In any order. I’m open to any contract work, so just shoot me a message if you’re interested.

hmm

ok #gameaudio people of the PNW, I have an ask of you. Our Sonic Landscape is coming up and I'm looking to spread the word. I would greatly appreciate if you would share this news with another audio person to let them know about it. especially if they aren't on this site. www.oursoniclandscape.com

Damn level designers...how do you do this shit? 😂 I'm just trying to make a test room for myself and am not having fun lol. This is just straight up probably one of my least favorite parts of dev, just trying to put geo in the world in a fun and interesting way

Happy Trans Day of Visibility to all my Trans friends! No matter what's happening in the world, you've got my support ❤️ Trans rights are human rights

For many different contexts this is hitting today haha tidal.com/track/429326...

Damn I did not have Claude source code leaking on git on todays bingo board huh Link if anyone is interested. There's some wild shit in just the ReadMe github.com/Kuberwastake...

It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you. If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can. Everyone give this a share after.

Can't even make this shit up anymore 😮‍💨

bruh if fabs have to turn off

Project Hail Mary was pretty awesome! Had some criticisms based on how the book handled some things, but overall had a wonderful time!!

Uh oh, I discovered I owned Slay the Spire today...where did the last 4 hours go?

hi speaking as a narrative lead on a GOTY and long time builder of VO pipelines, this has literally been a solved problem for ages with text to speech and other tools so we haven’t ever needed evil shit like genAI for this solved ass problem. This is basic shit.

Lol Lmao even This shit literally writes itself. Of course humans are better than AI...what the fuck did you expect???

Another year, another GDC wrapped This year really reinforced to me how important the game dev community is. I had an absolute blast connecting with old peers and friends, meeting new incredibly talented devs, and making new friends The industry is in a rough spot, but we will pull through ❤️

Oh hey it's the annual Sonniss GDC drop! They've been generously giving away big grab bag sound libraries every year for a while. Free for commercial use, and no attribution required. Incidentally, I've bought a lot from Sonniss since then. gdc.sonniss.com

GG to all the very-early-morning climbers who managed to make it to our annual GDC Bouldering Meetup! Already thinking about how to make next year even better... 🤘🕹️

If anyone is interested in hearing more about haptics, I'll be talking on the AudioKinetic haptics panel today at 1pm! Link to RSVP, completely free does not require a GDC pass! info.audiokinetic.com/gdc2026 #gameaudiogdc #gdc

Logging on to see what's happening in the world after a wonderful day talking to people at GDC

I’m gonna be so real. I’m never going to call it the festival of gaming

In kinda a last minute decision, I got some flights for GDC! Not going to be getting a pass, but if anyone is around for GDC and wants to talk tech audio or haptics, I'll be there! I'm happy I managed to make this work since this would have been the first one I missed since I started going in '23

If anyone in the Austin area wants to hear me yap about tech audio and haptics design, I'll be speaking at GDC^2 this year! My presentation is Sat 03/07 @ 11am. Huge thanks to the UT Game Dev Club EGaDS for giving me this opportunity! Sign up - forms.gle/xsNfxtZxzKBP...

I've been running gdcparties.com for a few years now. Some shitty company BlueberryAI decided they'd just take all the source code for the work I've done and reskin it, advertising it as their own. Jokes on them...it was still linked to my events spreadsheet, and now their website looks like this 😉

Don't ever fuck around with Mario's legal team. They got some fucking hands

Wow, it's already GDC time again! I'm excited to be going next week with Shannon Zhao representing our new studio, Quietlight Games! I'll be hanging around in the park and at parties, so I hope our paths cross if you're going! Here's a sneak peak of what Shannon and I are cooking up with Flora Nova!

Working on a dynamic breathing system in Unreal currently, which has been an absolute blast! Tons of fun learning more about the engine and blueprints. Now recording myself doing different kinds of breaths and efforts (and for multiple health states) is a lot less fun. How do voice actors do it? 😭

If anyone in the Austin area wants to hear me yap about tech audio and haptics design, I'll be speaking at GDC^2 this year! My presentation is Sat 03/07 @ 11am. Huge thanks to the UT Game Dev Club EGaDS for giving me this opportunity! Sign up - forms.gle/xsNfxtZxzKBP...

Ohhhhhhhh boy. I don't have much love for Tencent, but you can't deny how much they're propping up so much of the games industry rn. Riot, Epic, new Ubisoft subsidiary, and so much more. Bad news for the whole industry if this goes through

Oh for fucks sake. Remember when Win10 was supposed to be "the last windows version"? 🙄

Todays music tidal.com/album/194712... Yesterday was a big ERRA mood, super excited for the new album on Friday

Been staying off the internet today to avoid crazy psychic damage. It shouldn't have to be said, but there is absolutely no justifiable reason that the United States should be bombing Iran, let alone a FUCKING ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. Everyone who did this deserves so much worse than I can put in words

I can't believe I really wanted Netflix of all people to buy WB. Now the Ellison's will control even more of the dwindling legacy media 😔

The Hardcore Guide to Game Audio #GDC2026 is available now at @asoundeffect.bsky.social! ✨ www.asoundeffect.com/gdc26/ Looking for details, insights, and a schedule of interesting audio things-to-do during this years Game Developers Conference? #GameAudioGDC #GameAudio #GameMusic

Hey @regameyk.bsky.social if you happen to be going to GDC this year (so understandable if you're not), do you happen to know if there's bouldering being organized again this year? Haven't seen anything about it and it was an absolute blast last year!

This is honestly one of the most incredible vocal performances I've ever heard. The amount of control @maphramusic.bsky.social has over her voice is stunning. Going through her full range, while adding and removing distortion, and not hearing a single crack is mind blowing youtu.be/r6L-GUOAhGo?...

I'd have to say Uncut Gems. I thought it was an incredible movie, but I don't think I can ever watch it again. I've never been so uncomfortable watching a movie

I've never listened to any of Jacob Collier's work before, but this video legitimately had me crying. It's so incredibly beautiful, creative, and sincere, with genuine passion pouring out from everyone. I fucking love music ❤️ youtu.be/BFul90BFjGc

Trying Adderall for the first time today (fully prescribed for ADD) and hooooly wow. Is this how normal people feel all the time? You can actually focus on tasks without having 50 million ideas whirling through you all at once? Crazy

they call it single sign on because you have to sign on every single time you get up from your desk
