Long-shot, but:

I'm looking for full-time work in game development.
If you have a project (or know of one) seeking help in the animation, tech-anim, game design, character art departments, please feel free to reach out!! I'm currently local to the PNW and I've got six years of dev experience.

The desire for more co-ops / direct ownership and for developers to see residuals for the games they work on.

We're an industry that is fueled by highly passionate and incredibly creative people, and that passion is never rewarded but instead traded for a salary until it's time to be let go.

a blue guy (caveman). i've been drawing blue guys again

I intend for this to be where I make my millions

currently workshopping a design for the next great bald cartoon child. a bald cartoon child seems to pop off roughly every 30 years (i.e. Charlie Brown, Doug), so its high time we see a new one

Inspired by @radiatoryang.bsky.social's excellent Big Hops level design blog post and encouraged by Chris @luckshotgames.com, here's a thread where I dove back through the commits to look at our iterations on a single level in Big Hops.

Hey #PitchYaGame!
I'm making an atmospheric 3d platformer where you're a robot pole-jumping through an underground complex!

🏃- Unique staff-based movement
🏚- Huge abandoned megastructure
🎞- Wordless story to piece together

The game comes out the 10th of November!
Wishlist it here: s.team/a/2980260

it felt like we started taking access to these exciting art tools for granted, and everyone started acting like their parents for a bit there. glad to see some freaks coming out of the woodwork again, I hope they get louder

it makes me happy to see amateur/unpolished art creeping its way back into popularity again! a lot of independent art from the last decade felt like it was trying to imitate the aesthetics/tone of big budget studio stuff and it stopped being cool to experiment

#BigHops is in Steam Next Fest!

It's a good hour long taste of our adventure: you'll use your tongue, learn to climb, find veggies you can build paths with, and borrow a stranger's backpack.
