At this point I am speed running game dev applications. I think I applied to like 15 different openings in the course of like an hour and 30 minutes just now - I feel like I'm gonna pass out lmao

I don't think people understand how hard it is to work in the video-game industry right now. If you've been laid off, it can take months if not years to find new work. If you haven't been laid off, you're anxious that you will be laid off. This week's column: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Currently waiting for fab to approve my plugin's upgrade from python to C++! Looks to be roughly 10x-15x speed improvement. Now THAT is convenient optimization folks! www.fab.com/listings/307...

Hey have you ever been like "I don't want to delete that duplicate asset and tell it where the duplicate is. in Unreal Engine's content browser because the loading bar takes forever" and who has time for that nonsense? Buy my plugin so you don't have to!- That's it, that's the ad. xoxo gossip girl

Hey yall. I have retreated to Sweden and used what little money I have to get me here.

Please, Please, PLEASE consider donating

It's official! My first ever Unreal Engine plugin is live on the fab store! It's an optimization tool that automatically searches your project for duplicate assets, and reconsolidates them. They don't have to be named similarly at all for it to work

Been working on a new pngtuber for when I start streaming again in April! ✨ This Goblin started out as a silly OC, now she has taken over my life 😂 Hope you all love Roody as much as I do! #art #oc #pngtuber #digitalart

if you asked me to diagnose the western game industry's current problem it would start with "landlords have absorbed basically all disposable income"

Just finished my 3rd interview in 3 days, feels good to have some options, really hoping 1 of these 2 prospects pans out 🤞 Definitely going to go lay down and let all my anxiety butterflies explode out of my ass now 😂

Here are some techniques I discovered through 14 years of shader programming:

The problem with hiring is that I can't hire everyone. I find that it's always such a hard choice. Everyone I meet is generally pretty cool with few exceptions. And I'm like... Awws but I wanted to get to know this person too....

When you forgot to mention material permutations, and translucency during your interview with the technical team and realize just after the call shuts off

is it weird and clingy to connect with people on linked in who recently interviewed you?

In 3 hours I might be having one of the most important interviews of my career. Wish me luck! Got a good feeling y'all!

Here are some WIP shots from Unreal Engine 5 from this weekends progress Ive been focusing on shaders for the foliage and reworking some of the lighting and doing some Designer work on the Birch bark I will be taking the trees into Zbrush and sculpting some detail onto the trees

It’s that time again 😭 Sweet Baby Inc are a team of Writers & Narrative Designers, and we did not work on Highguard. Ask yourselves what it is about Highguard that reactionaries have connected to us. That should clarify who they are and what they’re upset about.

We had a wonderful article written about us by KongBakPao 💚 Check it out: www.kongbakpao.com/remnants-of-... #indiegame #cozygame

Here in Canada we have a billionaire, Jim Pattison. I just learned today he's apparently very pro ICE I ALSO learned he's 97 So what I'm saying is, he's ready to leave this plane, and if anyone maybe wants to accidentally bump into him, or feed him a slightly expired burger, please do.

It's magic! This one is pretty much just cylinders and Planes #godot #shaders #vfx #gamedev #gameart #indiedev
