If ever actually constructed, look for it to be the first DC monument gleefully destroyed in every future disaster movie

If you're a dev heading to GDC, let's connect. Happy to talk shop.

This week’s post is here if it’s useful:

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Explore our Next Level - Jameson Durall XP

Excited to officially share the opening of Jameson Durall XP. We’ve been running for a few months and are excited by the early momentum. Our focus is simple: solve game design chaos, refine systems, and build games that play better.

I'm really enjoying my first Unreal Fest! Hit me up if you're around and we haven't had a chance to connect yet.

In Orlando this week for Unreal Fest 🔥

If you’re around and want to talk systems, design clarity, or where the industry’s headed - let’s connect.

Blue Prince Cover Art

Just started The Blue Prince. Gonna try playing one in-game day at a time. Which is a cute little boundary I’ll ignore the second this thing wrecks me emotionally.

Just incredible

Pentiment is SO good

We have now arrived at the "arresting judges" level of fascism.

Happy #NFLDRAFT to those who celebrate. May hope spring eternal, and your team not blow it. Again.

Sounds fun!

If either of those things happen, the stock market crashes will be the least of your worries.

Thanks! 😀

Thank youuuuu! I'm so excited 😀

Abstract door leading to a new adventure

My time at Insomniac Games has come to a close.
Grateful for the incredible people and the work we created together.

Now onto a new chapter — full-time consulting, creating with purpose, and building the projects I’ve dreamed about.

Here we go.
