It's been a minute: OpenCAGE v0.15.0.0 is now live for Alien: Isolation, adding vast improvements to the script node editor, level viewer, and various asset handlers! More to come! store.steampowered.com/app/3367530/...

Digging through some old screenshots and found these photos I took of Loch Lomond in Scotland and then recreated in MS Flight Simulator.

ROUTINE is available now on Xbox Game Pass, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox on PC, Xbox Cloud, and Steam. Delve deep into the lunar base in search of answers. The only way to go is forward. ▌ ► Xbox: www.xbox.com/en-US/games/... ► Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/606160/R...

This is the most ruthless act of union busting in the history of the UK games industry. Yesterday, @rockstargames.com unfairly fired over 30 employees for union activity. We won't back down, and we're not scared - we will fight for every member to be reinstated.

More than 2000 followers on our Kickstarter for SOMA 10th Anniversary Collector's Edition for Nintendo Switch. Stay tuned, this is something we want to thank you... big news coming soon. www.kickstarter.com/projects/aby...

The behind-the-scenes stills continue to pour in, and thanks to Manuel Duran here's some more! #Alien #AlienEarth #Xenomorph #NoahHawley #ManuelDuran #WetaWorkshop

So excited for this one - seems like forever ago it got put up on Greenlight!

Production designer Andy Nicholson: "The Yutani design motif for the Nostromo was so strong that any other ship of that period in the Yutani fleet would just take design elements from it. I’ve been on both an aircraft carrier and a cruiser in the Royal Navy as part of research on previous shows."

We’re excited to share that Routine is still in active development and nearing the finish line. The incredible team at Lunar Software has been hard at work and just posted a new devlog update. Check it out and enjoy these stunning new Routine screenshots: store.steampowered.com/news/app/606...

The game that has defined my YouTube 'career' returns to @aiandgames.com one last time... A video I've been working on for over a year, with guests including @ultrabrilliant.xyz, @mattfiler.co.uk, and several of the dev team - with help from @creative-assembly.com themselves. See you on Monday!

This summer, @aiandgames.com will be releasing a retrospective on Alien: Isolation featuring interviews discussing it's creation and the techniques used to create the xenomorph AI. Watch a sneak peak below!

We've been cooking away at something special, and it's #AlienDay, so what better time to announce it? Alien: Isolation - The Retrospective! I chat with @mattfiler.co.uk, @ultrabrilliant.xyz, and five members of the original development team, with help from the good folks at @creative-assembly.com.

It's #AlienDay, which of course means a giant OpenCAGE update is out for Alien: Isolation! Introducing the level viewer: a realtime 3D preview of changes you're making to levels using the script editor! Check out the updated docs to learn more :) github.com/MattFiler/Op...

Perfect Organism, my book about horror masterpiece Alien: Isolation, is currently 65% off on Amazon UK. That's a mere £6.99 for a hardback copy, which will never be printed again when the paperback comes out later this year. 👀 www.amazon.co.uk/Perfect-Orga...

Highly recommend checking out this incredible re-cut of Alien 3! Really impressive work by @a34k.bsky.social! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ct-8...

Back to back showings on the UK's biggest screen? Would be rude not to really.

First look at a scene from Alien: Earth (TV show, 2025). Showrunner Noah Hawley (Fargo, Legion) promised he'd draw inspiration from the art direction of Alien (1979), and it shows! After all, this show takes place only 2 years before the Ridley Scott's movie.

It's been a long road this one, and probably one of the heftiest commissions I've done so far, but this might be one of my favourite pieces I've done. Alien 3 is (somewhat controversially) my favourite Alien movie. I love Alien to absolute death and it's the better film, but still. That dog xeno!

The three official VR #Alien experiences we've had so far. Alien: Rogue Incursion by @Survios, Alien: Descent by Pure Imagination Studios, and finally the short VR promotional video Alien: Covenant In Utero, produced by FoxNext.

My hobby project OpenCAGE has just launched on Steam - check it out if you fancy making some Alien: Isolation mods! store.steampowered.com/app/3367530

It took me 7-8 years to start it. Alien: Isolation is just a gem you won't forget so easily. So, if you decide to play it and take some shots, I wrote a little something with some help. Thanks @mattfiler.co.uk and Ryan J Gray for their help. anticowl.github.io/2025/01/21/A...

Just over 9 years ago while poking around in the files of Alien: Isolation I came across an alternate storyline that got cut a year before the game shipped. @ultrabrilliant.xyz did a great writeup about some bits of it, check out the article if you've not seen! www.pcgamer.com/alien-isolat...

Very exciting way to start the week - I'm hiring for a Lead Development Manager to join my Production team on the sequel to Alien: Isolation! This is a hybrid role in our Sussex, UK studio - happy to answer any questions. app.jobvite.com/m?3We5jnwq

There are really only two "mystery box" shows that I felt were worth my time last year and this coming year (for "mystery box shows," think LOST): FROM and SILO. As always, your mileage may differ.

Happy new year! Starting it off with a bang... I'm insanely excited to announce that this February I'll be joining the team at Feral Interactive as Lead Developer! Can't wait to share more 🙌

Oh dang, we're 135% funded with less than 72 hours to go. If you've ever wanted to learn more about how AI is actually used in games (not all *that other stuff*) this is for you! Including how to do it yourself! The more funds/backers we get, the more content we can put into the course.

"Generate a playable world on a spaceship". While the technology is fascinating on paper, it's a little sad to read this when you're running an account that's dedicated to showing the impact of human creation on fiction (and therefore on our lives).

OpenCAGE is heading to Steam! Add the tools to your wishlist now! store.steampowered.com/app/3367530/
