I need new shoes but I can't get past this screen for the life of me so I guess I'm not buying new shoes today, good work Vans.

Chillin outside a brewery in Durham and I swear to God I just heard an irl Wilhelm Scream

Oooooooof.

If I saw a random glowing portal when I was out I would probably go through it

📆Wanna hang out and talk shop? Epic's Technical Developer Relations team will be at the Unreal Los Angeles Meet-n-Greet event on Monday 4/6! Please register using this link if you're interested, as venue space is limited: communities.unrealengine.com/events/detai...

Impacted?

Thanks to all those who reached out about the Epic layoffs. Lots of unknowns, but I'm still at Epic and I'll keep doing what I do. Check on your game industry friends, things are tough out there.

If anyone saw me gush about Rhythm Doctor a few months back but hasn't found the time to play it, @jacobgeller.com covered it in his recent video and did a perfect job of demonstrating why it's so special. Check it out if you're okay with some spoilers! youtu.be/P2at_X2SCNU?...

Phew, that Pokopia ending isn't playing around 🥹

Somebody make a mecha version of Hardspace: Shipbreaker, please. I want to disassemble a Gundam.

I'm glad I listened to all of the people saying Pokopia is really good, because holy beans Pokopia is good (I haven't played a Pokemon game since X/Y).

The first week of March is National Consumer Protection Week. Buy from reputable sellers when you buy online.

Somebody lend me $5,000 so I can adopt the 😅 emoji, I need it

LOGGING ON

Today marks the completion of my 10th year at Epic, so I'm celebrating with a beer at the brewery that opened up right around when I started. Time sure flies 😅

You can listen to a mashup of some of the battle music I wrote in this awesome new release date trailer for People of Note here! Early the biggest musical challenge of my career so far, please share and wishlist on Steam! 🙏🎧 #PeopleofNote #annapurnainteractive #IridiumStudios #gamedev #jrpg

Really excited for this one, the stuff they showed at MAGFest was incredible

"Clair Obscur was 95% Blueprints" I've been eagerly waiting for this talk to be uploaded, great job Tom and team 💪 youtu.be/t1CrbTx6O6w?...

Flying home just in time for Valentine's day so I can kiss my wife and kiss my dog and tell my cat that it's about time she made herself useful around here

Just got Five Iron Frenzy tickets, let's gooooo

@christotten.bsky.social Really good stuff! Stoked for the release

Hey #UEAudio and #MetaSound fans, consider submitting a talk proposal for UEFest this year! Deadline is Jan 22nd. www.unrealengine.com/en-US/news/a...

I don't know where else to say it, so I'll say it here.. I am well and truly spent. Out of juice. Nothing left in the tank. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Ok yeah I finished Rhythm Doctor and I'm about to make this game my whole personality for a bit.

Rhythm Doctor is so good y'all. Truly asking the hard questions, like "why does a rhythm game need more than one button?" and "why can't a rhythm game make you cry?"

Look out, folks. I'm back on my bullshit

Clair Obscur: Expedition Good Boy

So like.. what are you supposed to do if a product is under warranty and the company just doesn't respond via any of their communication channels? CFPB complaint? Small claims? I have some outdoor Hue lights that died after 8 months and I'm running out of options here..

Apparently my talk is live!

Sheeeeeesh My Hero Academia is really sticking the landing

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Keeper not being up for Best Art Direction is a crazy choice. Four of the five nominees are sequels, seems they don't value originality?

Halloween costume might have been too deep a cut

Keeper in a nutshell

Starting Keeper: "Oh sick, this lighthouse has a pet bird" Halfway through: "Oh wait nvm, I think this bird has a pet lighthouse"

For like the 4th time this year I have "completed my slides" and nothing will ever compare to the joy and relief one feels upon "completing their slides".

I keep thinking about the symmetry of Hades 2 and Hollow Knight: Silksong both being second games where the original had an emo sadboy protagonist and then the sequel being about a girl who is just incredibly task-focused and direct and probably shops at Athleta

Yeah so in case you aren't up to date on your NC politics, we're not really doing the democracy thing anymore

Always blows my mind when the random people you're talking to at the hotel bar are surprised to learn you aren't local

Obligatory Jenny Nicholson Tweet

I keep telling myself not to get my hopes up for the MAGFest hotel lottery, but I can't help it. I've tried to go 5 years in a row now, and I straight up can't. That's such a shitty way to run things.

Anyway, here's some thoughts that nobody asked for. If you don't want some light spoilers then uhh skip this thread but I'll try to be vague about late game stuff.

My one sentence Silksong review: It had some moments so bad and unfun that I would have quit any other game, but it had some moments so incredible that I just *had* to see it all.

Spent the night farming Silksong's hunter's journal. Just a few more things left for me to do and it'll finally be time to go fight the final boss and wrap this thing up (just in time for Yotei). I think this will end up being one of those video game accomplishments that I'm super proud of.

I stg I'm about to start building this Lego at the airport lounge bar and nobody can stop me

Here we go again!

Me, watching the new Demon Slayer movie: "oh wow this is just like silksong"
