One of my high school classmates is running for congress but I shipped the talking gun game so im sure hes jealous

Throwback to when I hosted a radio show with the local humane society

Respect to the folks playing 007 like Hitman but im playing it like an Arkham game and I appreciate that both are totally viable

In 007 you can speed run a lot of interactions by simply blinding civilians

Acting like thats her worst offense when I got this yesterday

I love that Filoni keeps bringing clone wars and rebels characters into live action projects and then I have to spend 20 minutes explaining to my mom that Jeremy Allen White is playing the slug baby introduced in 2008

Cleaning my apartment just in case I end up in a House MD situation where some attractive doctors have to break in to investigate my mystery illness

Big fan of Minneapolis

Scope creep isn't real if you're pure of heart

Shoutout pride Batman

6 years ago I applied for a job thinking it'd be a cool post college summer gig and now here we are

Lego Batman is a perfect game

I actually think its really important for every traveler to visit JFK at least once. Because anytime I have a bad airport experience I remember "at least im not at JFK"

Can't wait for the game industry to discover what happens when you go years with barely any entry-level roles

My 2005 saturn has never had major issues but it does have lots of quirks like sometimes it refuses to turn off and also the doors randomly decide not to lock

Why did nobody tell me Majima is in Dave the Diver

Lol I just got carded buying a game I worked on

I keep seeing this post asking why America doesn't have good street food and yeah it's because we're uniquely bad at building walkable communities

Every time my family asks when im gonna have kids I remind them I eat goldfish for dinner at least 3 times a week

I recognize that I released a game this year but I'll be honest I think Lego Batman will be my GOTY without question

AT LONG LAST I HAVE FINALLY ACQUIRED THE LIMITED EDITION CRACKDOWN 2 STEELBOOk

Coming back to work after a long vacation

I started eating cream cheese bagels as an alternative to sweets but now im just eating an absolutely concerning amount of bagels

Elderly eastern European man on the train next to me who spent entire 20+ hour ride watching jeopardy and ai generated videos of wolves

Today marks 4 years at Squanch and its been rad Its still insane looking back at how I ended up here from one very bold tweet. When the ABK acquisition was announced I was a little fed up and posted this which led to meeting my now close friend @andyvatter.bsky.social who gave a great pitch

I randomly checked ebay and somehow found a collectible ive been chasing since I was a kid available for like $10

Thank you DJI for maintaining the lost art of sending cool stickers with your gear

In retrospect I think 2 weeks of solo travel was a little too much time for self reflection

Today's project: learning how to play the Neopets TCG

Im absurdly grateful that ive somehow managed to accomplish a lot of my long shot career goals very early. So now ive decided to pivot to my true holy grail and spam this to Microsoft

GEE MINNESOTA HOW COME YOUR MOM LETS YOU HAVE THREE FALSE SPRINGS

I was burnt out so I just spent 2 weeks traveling around the entire US mostly on the Amtrak with a couple flights to make up for lost time It was rad highly recommend. I planned to work on a side project but I ended up mostly just talking to people and checking out the views

Im so bad at networking I had several people at PAX try to talk about work stuff and im just like "sorry im on vacation"

My 2 weeks of travel summarized - Seattle has good Pho - LA too hot - Texas too big - NOLA is the friendliest place - NYC really does have the best pizza - Boston has a really weird relationship with crosswalks

At PAX I had a good talk with a guy who asked point blank why I want to continue working in games with everything going on And I realized for me as someone who started in 2020 fresh out of college theres now this weird sense of responsibility to try and help make things less terrible in the future

Heading back home today. Besides the food poisoning this was a great PAX - Met many coworkers, devs, and fans - Saw probably the best keynote ever from Xalavier - Played so so so many phenomenal demos Shits bad right now but its always wholesome going to events like this for a morale boost

In America you can buy burger from vending machine

Lol I am ending PAX day 1 with food poisoning gg dont trust the food trucks this is awful

Packing is going to tough because I am an idiot that needed these two

Neopets 4 lyfe

Im so sorry to the handful of fans and friends ive ran into that had to listen to me talk stupidly fast. Im running on no sleep and redbull is giving out free drinks

One issue with going to PAX at the end of my backpacking trip is that its day 1 and im already extremely sore from all the stuff I did prior

11 days, 5 hotels, 4 train rides, and one flight later I have finally arrived in Boston for PAX East This was an unhinged adventure. Friends/mutuals hit me up if you're around. This is purely a vacation not here in any official game dev capacity

Meeting @andyvatter.bsky.social 's dog but only using the .6 zoom

This year at PAX I will be cosplaying as a loot goblin If you see me feel free to beat me up and take all my shit

JFK hate aside I do absolutely love this city

I swear to god I always think JFK cant be as bad as I remember and then I fly in and its actually significantly worse

Oh boy did I jinx this.....

Ice losers spotted at nola airport

In the last week I have experienced - blizzard in MN - record breaking heat wave in LA - train collision in TX And I still have NYC and PAX to go This has been the most insane travel experience ever
