does anyone know anyone who has done interesting work with procedural pixel art environments? front-facing specifically, not top-down i would love to see some work/read some thoughts/talk some shop etc :) #pixelart #proceduralgeneration #technicalart

OK, Steam + GOG + Itch now all have V1.00 on them. Let's goooooo!!!!!!!!

For those who don't subject themselves to my LinkedIn waffle or whose algo has spared them... I've joined the Killer Filler crew helping with bizdev and marketing. I love how focused the proposition is: Incredible shortform video for between your main games marketing beats 🎮🎥 LETS TALK?!

If anyone is/wants to make a game about: 🚌Travelling/living in a van 🏡 Building a barn in the countryside 🌳 Planting a woodland Hit me up 👋 I can give you all the real world highs and horrors of this lifestyle. So many game-like challenges to manage doing this 😅

It's @machcomedyfest.bsky.social this weekend 🙌 Got tickets for James Acaster, Mike Wozniak and Mark Simmons. Will also be checking out a bunch of other acts ad-hoc and generally lolling about town. If you like standup and haven't been, put it on your radar.

✨ It's Limit Break Freshers Week ✨ This week we'll be giving you links to resources to help you get started on your LB journey! Today is about Onboarding members and explaining how to get started with Limit Break. Having trouble setting up your Pushfar? Check out: limitbreak.co.uk/pushfar-guide

The one where the wife insisted on using a terrible photo of me to experiment with the YT algo 😅 New #BarnLife update... youtu.be/hwuuo_Qf2wk

There's bluebells in the woodland next to our field and this year they've breached the boundary. Good.

Went to see Project Hail Mary finally. Just a few days after finishing the book. Both are incredible. The book does more "science" but the film levels up the story through music, sound and nails the humour. Go see if you haven't already! (Not least for @adamburt.com debut extra performance 👀)

Alongside being on @limitbreak.co.uk committee I’m also getting involved as a mentor for the first time! I’d really like to mentor an early career programmer who is either self taught, a career switcher or from a non traditional route - as there’s not enough of us!

What's the best book you've read lately? Looking for recs, anything considered but especially: 🤓 Personal development 🤔 Leadership 🎮 Games industry 👽 Sci-fi 🤣 Comedy/funny autobiography Suggestions appreciated 🙏

A super digestible summary of why we absolutely SHOULD be taxing the super-rich. It sounds silly that it even needs explaining, but here we are www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWXy...

Don’t miss your chance to make a difference❗ limitbreak.co.uk/apply

Think of how many games where the verb is violence. How many games (including the ones nominated for tonight’s BAFTA awards) where you shoot, fight, kill. But when games want to explore the topic of violence in a meaningful way, that’s the issue?

Why did none of you tell me there's another tree planting Gamedev?! 👀🌲

A Sneak PEAK of Something Coming to Task Time⏰ - store.steampowered.com/news/app/218...

Spell checker is taking this place down from the inside...

Not the #IndieDev hero we deserve, but definitely the one we need 💪 @oneofmoo.bsky.social has a real talent for simplifying the business side of things which so many over-complicate

Absolutely fierce category, glad I'm not the one making the decision. BP would be a deserving winner though...

People who do accessibility as part of, or as the entire scope of their role - be the mentor you needed when you were starting out. Limit Break even has training if you're not sure about how to mentor! We need more game accessibility people to invest time into the next generation of professionals.

🏃‍♂️‍➡️ RUN TIME🏃‍♂️‍➡️ 🏃‍♂️‍➡️ RUN TIME🏃‍♂️‍➡️ 🏃‍♂️‍➡️ RUN TIME🏃‍♂️‍➡️ Procedural generation at 🏃‍♂️‍➡️RUN TIME🏃‍♂️‍➡️ Geddit? (also at design time, node graph edits update in real time in the Unreal editor -> a very satisfying workflow)

Realised I'm a professional hypocrite. I exclusively work with teams who have a very specific niche identified that they focus on being experts in. Which means I work on a broad variety of things... 😅 🤔 Maybe MY niche, is ✨businesses with a niche✨ Yeah, that'll do

Woodland update: Back in December, my wife and I planted a small woodland. Here's a Rowan tree busting out some new leaves. Good work little tree 🙌 #BarnLife

"Basically, it's an anisotropic multi-sample accumulation" "Basically" doing a lot of heavy lifting there 😅. Way out of my depth in this VFX talk, but some crazy cool tech on show.

Coming out of the long weekend with a tasty serving of procedural generation at @everythingproc.bsky.social Excited to be repping @apparance.bsky.social 🙌

Spending a lot of this long weekend on trains. Fortunately, for a good cause, on the way to @everythingproc.bsky.social. Next stop Rotterdam, then Breda 🙌

Budget hotel with an incredible view, whodathunk it #London

I love making cute videos for @limitbreak.co.uk !!! I love doing volunteer work for marginalized voices in the games community!!! I love this silly little career I have!!!

Exciting new life experience today. Getting a train from Birmingham Moor Street into London Marylebone. Two stations I've never experienced. What an Easter treat. Stay tuned for more dull man updates...

Hey everyone, have a...

This is the best indie game marketing content you'll ready this week 👇

I'm back to doing some mentoring this year! And I have space for two mentees! Interested in learning about video game trailers and video editing in general? Sign up here!

Sign up to be a mentor and/or mentee. I've been part of @limitbreak.co.uk for the past 3 years and it's been a massive support and comfort as I focused my career into games and entertainment, particularly as a remote worker. Highly recommend for established pros and newcomers to the industry.

Limit Break, the award winning mentorship program for marginalised people working in the UK games industry returns! 💖 Part of a marginalised group in games looking for a mentor? 💖 Want to help level up the next gen of game devs? Apply to be a mentor &/or mentee now! ⤵️ limitbreak.co.uk/apply

Made some barn doors from scratch. Really pleased with how they ended up. #BarnLife youtu.be/R5PmPR7MnTQ?...

Come hang out in Breda and get some sweet, sweet #ProcGen skills.

Happening right now! discord.gg/TVSQu5yY?eve...

Reminder: this excellent event with @sonderingemily.bsky.social is happening later today! If you're interested in building an audience to market your indie game, tune in at 6pm GMT! 👉 discord.com/events/88345...

Your options for placeholders: - Make them yourself (difficult, takes time) - Slop (monthly sub, kills the planet, enriches oligarchs, bad assets, everyone hates you and they're right) - Incredibly made game assets by @kenney.nl ($19.95, one-time, supports give-aways to those who can't afford it)

We’re back! Apply to be a mentor and make a real tangible difference, they likely need your support more than ever with the absolute state of everything. Even if you don’t think you have much advice to give, I bet you do! Don’t let imposter syndrome trick you out of doing great things

I noticed last year there was a shortage of mentors to help cover all mentees who signed up. For anyone in games who's thought about learning how to teach, give feedback or want to share words of wisdom, LB would be grateful for the all the help they can get! 💫

We're going again! This year has been a monumental effort from the committee. I'm so grateful to and proud of everyone involved in this amazing initiative.

It's Sunday, that means a new #BarnLife video 🙌 (Except last Sunday, because being a slave to the YouTube algo is hard, ok) Watch us destroy our expensive off grid power equipment 😅 youtu.be/ZHl-qpGUKUo?...

"We strongly advised… to embrace the jank of the game and to show this on all the marketing material. People should know from the beginning what they will get.” - @andriweidmann.bsky.social in the latest @gamediscoverco.bsky.social on 200k selling Over The Top Very brave, very smart 💯
