I'm surprised (and mildly annoyed) that it hasn't happened already. Not that it will change people's minds, unfortunately :/

Excited to be at Game Town's first game narrative event!

There's something in you that the world needs.

Fantastic work; congrats Florence!!

Machine Learning Integration and Game Architecture Here’s a quick blog post about machine learning integration in game, specifically dealing with system architecture, infrastructure, data collection, and working with Unity.

I've spent the last couple of weeks thinking about how to best architect games that use machine learning for bots. If this is a topic that interests you, you should definitely take a look!

Held og lykke Florence!

Sitting in the area marked "Game Development Galaxy"; pretty on point!

I took part in 2020 and had a great time; highly recommend!

Proud that I managed to contribute additional writing to this! Started playing it yesterday and I'm so grateful that it's a somewhat short game that's right up my alley!

Any particular type of sickos that you were thinking of?

Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

Thoughts on 2026 As we leave 2025 behind and begin a new year, I thought I’d take a moment to write down a few expectations I would like to set myself for 2026.

Some thoughts and resolutions as we head into 2026 simon.com.mt/blog/thought...

I relate to this SO much at the moment! Hope it calms down soon for you!

Don't forget; artists, writers, composers, anyone in game dev... you can also put a "no AI" clause in your work contracts! Protect yourself and the work you do while taking a stance.

Thank you Tommy! <3

Looking forward to playing both games! :D

Thank you!! I'm looking forward to it! Hope you're well, long time no see!

I've turned 36 today!

I don't normally ask for anything, but this year, I'd love it if you could share something small with me.

Whether it's a small sketch, a poem, a short story, a photo, a small game, or music you made; as long as it's artistic and meaningul to you, I will appreciate it! <3

Ending 2025 by wrestling with LaTeX for a document I'm working on

One of my favourite places in Malta, the Hypogeum of Ħal-Saflieni, also has interesting acoustic properties! (It's also a prehistoric temple that's entirely underground, which is even more fascinating to me)

Ooh, exciting; I loved living in Copenhagen when I was doing my MSc! Best of luck with the move!

Here's hoping it makes it to Stockholm! :D

Aargh, I'm in the UK right now and would have loved to try it out, but I leave on the 2nd!

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

Why stop at asking LLMs to generate references for you? The logical response if you can't find an article reference generated by LLM in a library is to get the LLM to generate the article for you, as it is clearly all-wise and knows everything. Job done.

After so much time, blood, sweat, and tears poured into the game, we finally launched @battlemarked.bsky.social yesterday!

I'm a massive fan of D&D and TTRPGs so it was an honour and a privilege to work with an IP so close to my heart.

I hope players enjoy the game as much as we enjoyed making it!

Thanks! Turns out I actually cited it in my PhD, whoops! Serves me right for leaving academia and not really engaging with the field in the last 5 years or so...
