Out of everything I've done since joining @hoodedhorse.bsky.social, getting Olden Era on the cover of @pcgamer.com is the closest I've come to having a "made it" moment, and i'm over the moon. Thanks to @robertnjones.bsky.social for the op and GG to the Unfrozen team. Great stuff!

The cinematic trailer for Menace is brutal and gorgeous - created in partnership with Syama Pedersen (Warhammer 40K fan video “Astartes”, and contributor on Amazon’s Secret Level).

Doing my bit

just shared this in a group and realised it’s the anniversary of this absolute s tier tweet by @jon-snow-420.bsky.social

NGL lads Gauntlet mode in BF6 is dope. One of the most refreshing modes since extraction became a thing. I just wish BF6 had given extraction another go as while RedSec is fine BR isn't always my speed. But then I tried Gauntlet and it stole the show for me.

Against the Storm has consistently featured in @pcgamer.com's "Best PC Games" coverage, one way or another. A testament to how genuinely great this team and this game is, and I'm humbled that I get to help them achieve their dreams.

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

Are there any editors taking tabletop pitches these days? It’s been a minute since I’ve done freelance tabletop coverage so I wanted to see if followers had a pulse on what’s out there. I have a great idea for a Pokemon TCG story that I need to find a home for. 😈

16 jobs here, for anyone who's missed them 👍🏽

I have no idea what the FT is talking about here, but I think this may be the best thing I've ever read? www.ft.com/content/ce26...

Been a busy start to the week, but yesterday we launched ENDLESS Legend 2 into early access, and it's off to a great start! 92% positive rating with nearly 200 reviews. So proud of the team over at Amplitude. store.steampowered.com/app/3407390/...

Tbf, nothing will ever beat the GW website front page at that time. "The Queen is dead: PREPARE FOR SKIRMISH COMBAT!"

Is PR still relevant for game marketing? IT SURE IS! Ads, influencers, showcases — they all matter. But without PR tying them together, you’re climbing uphill. PR adds the credibility, relationships, and trust that sustain long-term momentum. Read the blog → buff.ly/RJl3tyw

Today we're celebrating a little something that our game portfolio couldn't exist without: Swords. ⚔️ We're kind of obsessed with them. And excited to be part of the Sword Celebration event from @mythwright.com! https://store.steampowered.com/developer/mythwright/sale/swordcelebration2025

Hi! I was laid off from Firaxis this morning. I wrote leaders and civs for Civilization VII (NDA for now) and Deadpool and Storm for Marvel's Midnight Suns. I also wrote the award-nominated Hindsight. I'm available for full time, remote work starting ASAP. DMs are open: emmkid.info

sorry y'all, i'm still in shock. i wrapped up writing something i'm really proud of yesterday, so at least I got to see that through. second layoff in 5 years baybee lets gooooo

Losing my shit at how great Menace is shaping up - feels like *the* game to next sit alongside the likes of XCOM and Xenonauts, if the RPG/management side of the game is half as good as the combat I played at Gamescom www.gamesradar.com/games/strate...

Got asked which game I thought would make a good movie, settled on Mass Effect trilogy (as a film trilogy) pretty quickly, but with the Indoctrination Theory as canon for the finale. Really I just wanted an excuse to think about the Indoctrination Theory again, which was so annoyingly perfect.

And that's a wrap on #gamescom 2025! Had a great time, great to catch up with friends and make new ones. Until next year!

Managed to fit in a trip to my ancestral homeland, the Haxenhaus. Just one more day everyone!

And that's a wrap on Day Four. I need food.

Only at Gamescom: a dev we don't work with who came to the booth met someone from another publisher, who was also at our booth. The dev was pitching the publisher his game, while playing one of our games to demonstrate what he wanted to do in his game, as he was pitching his game.

All I'm saying is. A coffee would be good right now

My watch has started. Gamescom day four let's goooo

And that's my last press appointment of gamescom 2025 done. Time for one last selfie before I pack this bad boy away. Thank you to everyone who came to see our games!

Gamescom day three most of the way done, except for me my watch doesn't end until Monday because I have to man our indie hall booth over the weekend. Really great showing off all our games and seeing the good reaction though.

Gamescom day 2 is done and I have blisters. We found the Hooded Horse stall and met our two closest contact from there, Matthias and Joe. It was a very people-ful day!
