People outside the games industry don't grasp that this is absolutely unheard of. Workers don't get royalties, and we definitely don't get performance bonuses. When we make a hit game we sometimes just get laid off

life updates: - can’t afford the Good tasty cheese anymore but we persevere - somehow have 3 boxes of Roast Chicken flavoured gravy in the pantry - found out if I cut out gluten it might fix my skin issues, but I bake sourdough weekly now - got Moose a kitten, his name is Pickle

The perception of cheaply made games by like 1 dude minus all the contractors that blow up hurts us because when we ask for a real budget, someone says "well I saw an article that this other game cost $60K to make and sold 1 million copies" and that ends the convo

Really enjoyed the Jump Ship demo

happy pride and remember to live out of spite

It might not look like it from the surface but i spent a long time reworking the player systems. It now plays like a rogue like gloomhaven where you draft & collect equipment for each hero. Hope this was worth it in the long run. I am feeling pretty confident it was. Excited to share more soon!

Hello #PortfolioDay!! I'm Nat, an animator in the games industry! Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate has launched so I can share a snippet of some of the animations I worked on during my time as Animation Lead and Motion Capture Director. We animated in MotionBuilder and Unreal Engine 5 🥸

why yes.....Frog Bard has cute profile avatars you can use on your steam profile

youtu.be/N17wHsoHiG0?... I made a short video detailing gameplay animation, along with some responsibilities you could expect on the job. The hope is to help shed light on some aspects of the role, as well as help newcomers have insight into how to gear their work for an application. #animation
