When he grows up:

The Beauty is an absolute boner of a show. It's not good. But I'm obsessed.

I am obsessed with this lore

Long lost Winchester brother

Abolish ICE

I was informed that because I'm not white I can never achieve a manic pixie dream girl aesthetic - is true? Are there Asian mbdgs??

So inspired!!! By Bre + Danni talking about building inclusive communities like @gamedevperkup.bsky.social + @gdocexpo.com ✨✨✨

Our community's been inundated with this particular scam for a few weeks now. DON'T GET GOT! SPREAD THE WORD. #scam #scamalert

...cooter's out!

My MAGfest group plans have fallen through so I'm now going to be a lone sad orphan. Anyone have a group I can join? I already have a Gaylord room and transport. Just need friends 😭 and safety through community.

Started a new gig with @outpost004.bsky.social ! I'd met their co-founder Kyle through @gumbonyc.bsky.social years ago and I wouldn’t have gotten this opportunity without that community. Being part of a 3,000+ creative network makes us all better at what we do. ❤️ #newgig #community

Last night's panel event New York Hall of Science @nysci.bsky.social was a blast!! It's always gratifying to chat with students about careers in game dev / interactive media.

Looking forward to this tonight! Gonna talk about @womeningamesnyc.bsky.social + @gumbonyc.bsky.social at @nysci.bsky.social

wow I worked on an award-winning video game 🥹

Are we still doing starter packs on bsky these days?

asking "how goes the job search?" is the professional equivalent of that busybody aunt at Thanksgiving going "so...no boyfriend yet?"

*Rizzard, ftfy

after 5 years of working in a people-facing role, it feels good to be in-engine again.

Graphic Design Contest. $500 prize! The Brooklyn Seltzer Museum needs a graphic to represent the upcoming National Egg Cream Invitational. We can't afford to pay all submitters, so we're ONLY asking for rough concepts / mock-ups NOT expecting to get any fully fleshed out usable designs for free.

This is way too cool!!!!

So happy this is out!!! The team worked so hard so go support ❤️❤️❤️ and for anyone in NYC come have a drink with me and a couple other team members partiful.com/e/NgcVNxKUd3...

yeah that's right eat shit AGAIN cuomo you filthy sex pest fuck

Yes, please still buy Possessor(s) to open doors for talented people like @awfultyler.bsky.social and everyone else who worked so hard on it... www.rockpapershotgun.com/following-la...

Can't believe I'm saying this again so soon, but I've been laid off from Heart Machine. Please check out Possessor(s) on Nov 11th, I'm incredibly excited for you all to experience what I've been working so hard on the past year. Gonna just keep on moving forward and makin art mattgraczykart.com

Unfortunately my time with the lovely teams of Hyper Light Breaker and Possessor(s) is coming to an end tomorrow. It was a great time working with such passionate and talented individuals on this team and i'm wishing everybody a whole lot of luck and perseverance with job hunting in these hard times

Hi everyone... So this happened a bit sooner than I had originally anticipated. I am actively looking for work (along with so many others in this industry 💪😔🤘). If anyone is looking for a goober of an animator to join their team, please feel free to message me. <3 www.linkedin.com/in/annavriel...

Even if im no longer a part of the company i hope that folks still play Possessor(s) because we, the devs, put a lot of hard work and love into it. We want to see it be enjoyed by folks~

Excited to get back to running monthly playtest nights at Gumbo !! I've got big shoes to fill following @hamra.digital 's excellent tenure 🤩 ......

Layoffs at Launch: that's game dev.

My time at Heart Machine has sadly come to a rather abrupt end. I was there for almost 6 years, & had been working on Breaker since summer 2020. It was a pleasure working with them! Now, a new chapter begins.

There's no more valuable hire than Myriame. Seriously

this game makes my jaw clench and my heart go boom boom boom!!!!!!!! let's get it to 10 reviews in its first day!!! (that's when the steam algo magic happens apparently) store.steampowered.com/app/3894020/...

Perfect Liar - a modern juke-em-up / a speedrunner's purgatory / a bite-sized dose of cortisol OUT NOW ON STEAM. Support this tiny indie dev. Let's get this game to 10 reviews in its first 24 hours!!!! 💪 💪 💪 store.steampowered.com/app/3894020/...

After 7.5 years, my time making music & sound at @heartmachine.bsky.social is ending w/ the recent layoffs. I'd love to keep pushing boundaries -- please reach out if you think I can help solve your audio problems, especially if you're doing something artistically wild. RTs appreciated 🙏

100%. The @videogameworkers.bsky.social Freelancing Committee has union insurance ranked as our #1 priority. The process of securing affordable insurance for all union members will admittedly be a long road, but it’s one we MUST take. So often health insurance is the “carrot on a stick.”

I'd love to see game dev unions focus on advocacy for policy changes so groups like @gumbonyc.bsky.social can purchase group health insurance for members. A lot of game devs are freelancers / contract workers, esp. these days where w2 jobs are scarce. For some, it's literally life and death.

Felt Education provides free remote English classes for immigrants. The migrant crisis is worse than it's ever been, esp. for mothers with young children. Maybe you've seen them on the subway selling candy. It's getting cold and they need help. Please donate 🙏 givebutter.com/Rk6L5Y/back-...

@skatestory.com bout to be goty in a brand new category
