My contract with Blizzard ends in one month. I'm still looking for a fulltime role as a senior writer or narrative designer! If you need someone who can write poetic prose, emotive dialogue, and sharp stories, I'm here. ✨

Oh hey, it's the new thing we've been working on! 👀

We're excited to announce... The Ghost of Yōtei State of Play gameplay deep dive is on Thursday, July 10th with 20 minutes of footage!🎉 📺Tune in live at 2PM PT / 5PM ET / 10PM BST on @playstation's Twitch and YouTube channels More details: play.st/3GybLfm

layoffs suck and i'm so sorry y'all. i think i've just run out of words to capture the enormity of how much this whole industry situation sucks. my team is hiring, and it's a lovely place with fantastic people. if you're looking, open roles are here. www.playstation.com/en-us/corpor...

For those affected in the Xbox layoffs today, we have a few roles open at Gearbox, DM me if any of these are you! www.gearboxsoftware.com/careers/#car...

CDPR is hiring for a bunch of game jobs, y'all. No writing roles on my team at this moment, but lots of other positions. It's a really good place to land www.cdprojektred.com/en/jobs

The comment period for this ends in 3 DAYS. Please leave a comment telling them EVERYONE should be able to get covid boosters. www.regulations.gov/commenton/FD...

Signal boosting this again as well. I'm back on the job hunt and would love to rock at your studio or company. Social Media, Community Management, and comms work is my wheelhouse, but I would love to take a shot at a Producer or Developer Relations role.

Hey folks, just got the news I'll be laid off mid April. I'll be looking for concept and cinematic storyboarding gigs and anything else in between. I've gotten to do feature ownership, mentoring, some ad work, texture vis dev: generally cool but invisible stuff. Translating 2d to 3d is my jam.

Come work with me! We’re looking for an experienced community and support specialist to help us launch Ghost of Yōtei this year: jobs.suckerpunch.com/careers/3335... To be clear upfront: this is a contract role, and can be fully remote but only in the US & Canada. Feel free to DM questions!

hey another bill was brought to my attention - it establishes a sort of student bill of rights and implements specific policies for protecting trans students!! go "Support" this bill if u live in WA! app.leg.wa.gov/pbc/bill/1296 this is more likely to matter I think so spread the word :3

Washington State Legislature is considering a bill that would ban gender affirming care for trans youth. If you live here, let them know we oppose this! Took me like 2 minutes to fill out: app.leg.wa.gov/pbc/bill/1038

As Compulsion's CM & a Black Southern woman, our game is so much more than just a game to me. See you in April ♥️

The famous green owl app Duolingo is going even harder into AI made by stolen content. It's not curated by native speakers so you have no idea if what you're learning is correct. Their algorithm overall tries to hit the happy brain juices instead of helping you learn. So here are some alternatives!

Oh lawd he COMIN'

The Palestinian-made game Dreams on a Pillow is 413 dollars and 13 backers short of respectively 60K raised and 1,000 supporters. Who wants to help push it over towards those milestones? launchgood.com/1948

So, bad news. The studio I just joined, Thought Pennies, has run into some major trouble and laid off most of the staff. That includes me! I am laid off again! Truly, very bad luck. I was only there two weeks before stuff went down.

THE BLACK TTRPG INDUSTRY STARTER PACK! I've created a starter pack of black voices within the TTRPG space for two reasons. One, for community so black folks can find other like-minded individuals. Two, for visibility & to clearly show that we DO exist. go.bsky.app/38LPH9G

Alright the initial starter pack is set up. I'll be adding people who reply to this post and remember the cap is 150 and you need 7 to start. Note, bookmark, etc to keep up with this as I add people. Again it is with consent and opt in for people I know to be added. go.bsky.app/GzGKkZP

I took a bit of a social media break but am back just in time for something very special. As CM for Compulsion Games (who will be on Bsky soon!), I'm very proud to share our official "making of" South of Midnight documentary - you might even see a familiar face at the end! ♥️ youtu.be/wLBOyKqw58A

It's happening again! https://desertbus.org/2024/ Each year I help out Desert Bus by making a poster of their antics, that then is sold during the run, gets a BIG version of it auctioned, and helps raise even more for charity. Check out the start for this year!

Game developers, it's rough out there with so many layoffs. I created a starter pack for folks looking for work. Comment if you want to be added/removed. Let's boost each other and get these people hired!! 💪 #gamedev #indiedev go.bsky.app/2gdae71

I guess I am once again asking for help finding a narrative design/ game writing job. I have been doing this for almost two decades, I am good at what I do, I wrote Lily’s Garden which made a half billion dollars, and I do not have enough money to keep on living, so…help would be welcome

I made a Starter Pack for queer game devs - if you’re new to Bsky, here are a bunch of LGBTQ+ gamedev professionals if you want to network! (Reply here if you want to be added!) go.bsky.app/3mxxW8g

So my ER visit yesterday was beyond expensive. Like whoa. Like I'm in panic mode and asking for help. I'm tapped and drained after medications, bills, and groceries so any help sent my way would be incredibly appreciated. ko-fi.com/tinychaosmouse

My heart absolutely breaks for my friend who lost his grandchild to fentanyl poisoning. No one should suffer such a loss, when it was so preventable. Please, if you can donate, do so, and if not, share this around. May she rest peacefully. www.gofundme.com/f/nanette-ho...
