At the #SFMoma for their exhibit with TheMix (@indieexchange). It’s pretty cool to see games in a modern museum space and see that they “get it.” “Are games art?” debate is over, but if your exhibit doesn’t have them playable like this then you’re doing it wrong. #GDC2024
What’s it take to make a great game? Watch our documentaries Grounded & Grounded II to get a glimpse into the process of making The Last of Us Part 1 and 2.

Replying to @AREA5
@AREA5 work back in the day on The 1UP Show was so foundational to how I would think about Spawn On Me visually. I’m still trying to get to something close of what that work did. They continue to inspire me totally this day. Can’t wait to watch this.
Our new interview is with @AREA5! We talk to @ryanodonnell, @talkingorange, @jasonbertrand, and @CesarQuintero about creating The 1UP Show and working with Naughty Dog on Grounded 2.
“As the years go on, The 1UP Show gets more and more memory-holed.” youtu.be/9KS0vXOXGCQ

Also: @OuterlandsDoc is still in production, believe it or not. A lot of life has happened to members of our team, slowing the production process some, but we continue to work towards completing all ten episodes.
Remaining Tasks:
NAVE: Final graphics
Cannons: One studio shoot, minor edits, final color, final graphics.
Train Jam: in post, we’d like to do one additional trip + shoot to bring the episode up to the quality of the others, then final post, color, and graphics.
