After working on multiple games with this woman, I truly WISH you guys could see her casting audition videos compared to her competition. It's like watching 1996 Michael Jordan turn up to a high school basketball game.
Alguien me puede explicar por qué esta mujer sale en todos los videojuegos del mundo?

Particularly observant folks may've spotted that I no longer work at 22cans. I've moved on from the team after a fair tenure with them, and am presently in a downtime period before I start a new role with another. WHAT team? It's a secret!👻

My comedic genius is utterly wasted.
'Develop Brighton'? Uh, I'm pretty sure that's the local government's responsibility, not mine. I will not be attending.

Trying to get my Swedish friends to explain what the hell 'Dopp I grytan' is before being forced to eat it and it's told to me like it's some anomalous object that shouldn't be handled with bare skin.

You have no issues with being a grotesque mirror of humanity? Victor does! #deadlock

Posted elsewhere first. I don't play ZZZ all too much, but seeing this robot fella all over the place made me wanna do a lil piece with him.

Scrolling through my old tweets and this really is just going to continue until I retire huh
I love working in games but I do not love when I mention it to people and they somehow understand it to mean that I am the director of a large studio and am very interested in hearing their idea for a game and am willing to fund it RIGHT now if they pitch it to me RIGHT now

♥️♣️♠️♦️ Realising that wraith was a character that used magical robot arms instead of her regular ones (because she's a mob boss and wouldn't sully her hands with the busywork of firing guns or casting magic) helped me to appreciate her design more. #deadlock

The music is there because it's supposed to be a character select anim. Just felt right.

I've never understood the "This game took a long time to make so it's worth of recognition" or "This game had lots of people working on it so you have to like it" mentality. Things aren't good by virtue of effort alone.
Game Science CEO criticizes #TheGameAwards and says he wrote a Game of the Year acceptance speech for 'Black Myth: Wukong' two years ago "The games nominated this year were all excellent ... but I really didn’t understand the criteria for this year's Game of the Year ... felt like I came here for nothing!" "Ultimately, we took home Best Action Game and Players’ Voice. Especially winning Players’ Voice was gratifying"

This isn't actually a statement in regard to the game's quality. Just an observation on the specific "Lots of cooks makes the soup good." approach to critical analysis.

I realise I entirely forgot to mention that I'm @22Cans 's in-house Animator/Rigger! 😁 Everyone on the team is now a test subject for my weekly bake.

Random person on Linkedin: I have a role for you! Does it relate to my experience and align with my prior work? Random person on Linkedin: It's good work, sir :) >Look inside >Literally nothing to do with anything I've ever done in my career ever.

People often laugh when they see my portfolio website and the word 'Animator' underlined and highlighted in different accent colors every time it's written down, but I actually think this approach is totally underkill and I should be playing an "I'M AN ANIMATOR!!!" screamer.

I have an account on the 🟦☁️Website. It's the same handle as the one here. I'm not exactly too compelled to migrate over entirely? But I may post over there when I remember to do so.
