🌌 Galaxies Spring Showcase 2026: One Giant Leap in Viewership 🚀

🍿 World premieres
📣 Major announcements
🎬 50 exclusive new trailers

Tomorrow at 8pm BST / 9pm CEST / 3pm US Eastern

What are you hoping to see? 👀

If anyone is up for a casual chat, I'm honestly all ears. No sales pitch (pinky promise) or advocacy, just to listen 😊

I'm speaking at Develop Brighton again this year & looking to do some extra research for my talk 🕵️‍♀️

I would really love to chat to some devs or marketing folks about their experience with influencer marketing - the good, the bad, the ugly.

DMs are open (I assume) & shares are always appreciated 🫶

Delighted to announce I have successfully cleared 100GB of space from my macbook and can resume being a good corporate human again.

First event of the year competed ✅

Had a blast chatting with these lovely folks at @pocketgamercom.bsky.social Connects this week!

We jumped into what it really means to be a 'gamer' & what that label can mean in 2026 - the good, the bad, and the cringe.

Had a blast moderating the Creator panel at the Popcultr Marketing Summit last week! Shout-out to my fellow panellists for making it feel like a chat between pals at the pub, and to the @experience12.bsky.social gang for another stellar event within MCM Comic Con. ’Til the next one! ✌️

"Gameplay, gameplay, gameplay!"
