Fuck they’re sending in the Mantell Troopers

Lovely day to wake up and cry at a Formula 1 podium.

Realising a lot of my formative gaming experiences were demo discs.

I found this at work and it’s the Crysis 2 soundtrack 😭

Had a few tinnies, thinking about starting an underground timesplitters 2 league

Seeing my therapist (the video game World of Warcraft).

I have this visceral recurring memory/feeling of being in Virgin Megastore down the town after it got its sort of factory/industrial makeover (metal stairs down to the vinyls/exposed vents on the roof) looking at Command and Conquer on PS1.

After seeing clips of Marathon I have decided I’m going to be instantly excellent at it. I can already feel that Bungie FPS control. It’s going to be like Ricky The Dragon Steamboat coming out of retirement in 2009 and not losing a step.

I don't know if you can see the changes that have come over me / In these last few days, I've been afraid that I might drift away

Can’t believe I’m gonna watch the Seahawks win the superbowl then go home absolutely full of crisps and play Overwatch with 5 billion people. What a weekend.

When the RPG has a dialogue option to turn down the reward for my good deed.

In Ohio this is just a Tuesday at Jungle Jims.

My horse game got shinier horses and my whole day is made up

She bubblin

Nothing more passively judgemental than the number of chopsticks you get thrown in the bag with your order.

Loading up that level I was looking at before the break

My top 5 goty no order

definitely the most flexible and magical level design tools I've ever used! @2darray.bsky.social is a 3d math genius

Every year I submit WCW vs NWO Revenge and every year I’m knocked back.

Spielberg making alien movies just for me.

Making money in my level design job so I can support my hobby of level designing my wee WoW hoose.

My guild set up in Razorwind Shores…

Wee bit of baking and a wee bit of Battlefield for Thanksgiving. 🦃

DCs Absolute series continues to be outstanding. The panels in Martian Manhunter are gorgeous.

TODAY IS THE DAY

Fuckin love bein Scottish. Dont give me hope, just despair. Make everything shite. Forever. The feelin you get when you get that rare win, that’s what it’s aw aboot. It’s a lifetime of sorrow for that one good day. Class.

Detachable saucer section

Saw this Youtube thumbnail that made me chuckle. Sounds like a good title for a talk about faking player agency in a linear game. Credit Alius on YT. #gamedesign

Power lines extra buzzy tonight in LA, gonnae take a wee walk

I will never forgive Sony for giving me that free copy of MLB The Show

I saw this one cover and got all the Absolute comics.

#Blocktober picking up massively on Blue Sky year on year, which is nice.

The Indie Horror Showcase, which I helped put together, is tomorrow! 6pm BST for UK folks. In the course of putting the showcase together I have wishlisted a dozen games, not including the games I was already excited for which appear. So please come see our hard work and discover cool new games

Ever walk through the level you're designing backwards and think its actually better? #gamedev

I'm helping with level design on @sleightofhand.game ... the idea of this stealthy trainyard map is to contrast compact metro stations vs. long train tunnels vs. platforms where you duck into / beneath carriages #blocktober

*scottishly* That’s yer bubble burst

That’s me yer World Design Director at Naughty Dog. Wha’s world? Meh world. Your world. OOR world. 🤝

The battlefield music is intense I’ve never felt so pumped about compiling shaders before

Going into BIOS to change a setting for one video game is exactly what I love about PC gaming. Make me feel like an engineer. While we’re at it why not put a thermal paste replacement guide up there.

Rolled a 99

Awrite Bluesky folks. Mostly reposting on here this #Blocktober but still keeping an eye on the other place. Very cool seeing people kicking it off so strongly here already. ❤️ #gamedev #leveldesign

Being someone who started in game dev thanks to modding (Unreal Tournament!) modders always have my support and respect. Big news today of the sun setting of @hekili.bsky.social which helped WoW become accessible to millions of players. Glad to see so many recognising their years of work!

Made a wee batch of mornin rolls cos I found proper bacon in LA 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Looking forward to this year, had a few folk reach out and say how happy they were to see this on bsky. 🧡

It's just one entire GTA game from scratch, including the engine. How long could it take?
