Hi! I’m Rowan, Lead Narrative Designer

. In the past I’ve worked at Riot, Telltale, Obsidian, Square Enix, and Blizzard. I’m an advocate for EDI in games and a big ol’ nerd. Games - and devs - rock. I love dessert, crafting, coffee, cats, and you. 🖤

Not that I had intentions to do so, but I’m feeding right into the rumors of being a cryptid. Showing up briefly late at night to leave a comment or two before disappearing into the bayou. Befriending alligators and possums. Causing local dogs to bay into the dark.

I am ???% into a project that requires me to wade through AI slop to make it readable, and let me say with absolute certainty: I will *never* take on this kind of work again. It is exhausting and frustrating and so, so demeaning.

For gamers who aren't in game dev, you should know that we are in one of the worst periods in game dev history in terms of industry stability and the reason you're not seeing that play out through products is because the average development window of games is 3-7 years so it hasn't reached you yet.

Now it’s just one week! Consume will come out on October 30th, and you can be equal parts disgusted, intrigued, and terrified.

I thought AI was supposed to make games faster than usual dev time. It’s been at least a year. Where they at? Where are the critically acclaimed, fully AI-powered games? Show them to me. Bring them forth. Let us see.

Two weeks ‘til Consume, my twine horror short, comes out. In it, you play a monster who puts out an ad looking for someone who consents to being eaten. Stay tuned.

Hello, dear friends. In a month’s time, I’ll be releasing my very first twine game, Consume. It’s gory, it’s horny, and it’s fraught - just the way you like it.

i like how you can see the person that made this was full of spite but the message is genuine and pure so instead of the guy looking like an annoying loser he just ended up looking like a chill unc giving good advises

What if the magic of older games was just the disorganized nature of game studios of the past and a more pliable, less oversaturated market? 😭

Whatever popular brand of sparkling water people were into for a while - La Croix? - can we now safely admit those things taste like nothing? Or is there some kind of ego wrapped up in the sparkling water brands?

Happy Pride month, for all my fellow Queers out there: I hope you find joy, connection, love, support and that you spend time with your community or somehow make it bigger. That you make a new friend, lover, or something in-between (if you wish). Live deliciously, celebrate yourself ferociously.

I feel like most of my followers know this but because I see a lot of cis folks who have a specific blind spot for it: This includes the theme park. I don't care if you want Butterbeer or want to get a wand or are already there so why not just walk in. It's all Her. Everything with the name is Her.
