I feel I have to constantly remind myself that each photo I hold dear to me has an emotion it brings out A memory, a moment, a place in time… The ones that end up being great are the ones that pull that same emotion from those that weren’t there. The photos that tell a story. These are our communities grails When only you get those feelings, it’s ok to let it be a grail for you. Let it have that value to you. The passion is the hunt for the captured moments that give more than just a beautiful shot šŸ“ø Gm

Playtesting @ParallelColony and getting the chance to accessorize my Avatar. Had to ask for some shroud purple pinstripes on gunmetal. I like it simple šŸ˜‰ Sad the playtest is ending but happy I’ll get some of my time back šŸ˜‚

This is huge guys. Not very many teams get to showcase with Google. //
A huge moment for @Parallel Studios is around the corner, as we are showcasing Colony at the @googlecloud booth during @Official_GDC 2026! For the first time on a public stage, we'll be running live demos of the industry's first on-demand asset generation pipeline operating inside a live-game environment. Nothing pre-rendered. Nothing pulled offline. Just real-time in-game content creation, fully powered and scaled by @googlecloud. This has been a long time coming, and being featured at the Google Cloud booth at one of gaming's biggest stages is something we don't take lightly. More details are dropping soon, but if you're heading to GDC, please come find us at booth #1227. We'd love to show you more of what we're building.

When you are driven, life is a chase. The key to enjoying the journey is to stop and enjoy the amazing moments along the way. A plus is being able capturing a few šŸ“ø

I may have had to leave the rotors behind me, but the view from a high wing isn’t bad either āœˆļø Gm

As a photographer, sometimes there are just moments when you know you are exactly where you are supposed to be.

šŸ“£ Two-Month Update: What We’ve Been Building (and Why It Matters) I haven’t said much over the last two months because I’ve been heads-down ripping apart every part of what we’re doing—refining what works, cutting what doesn’t, and doubling down on the products that can genuinely win. This update is overdue, so here’s exactly where we are across Games + Wayfinder, and why we’re taking this direction. šŸŽ“ Trading Card Game (TCG) @ParallelTCG Our goal is simple: be the best. To do that, we’re leaning into the things that truly differentiate us while making sure we don’t alienate traditional TCG players. What we have today: - World-class card art - A world-class pack-opening experience - A uniquely high-skill game Until now we’ve mostly lived on gaming PCs, but that’s changing. We’re on track to ship a major overhaul in Q1, built for what the top of the mobile TCG market actually expects. This new build is already shaping up to be exceptional—faster, cleaner, more intuitive, and more appealing to mainstream players. Post-release objective: scale. If the game scales, everyone wins. That’s the target. 🧬 Colony @ParallelColony Colony is intentionally unlike anything else: It sits between a Grok-style companion experience—where you talk to your Colonist—and a 4X lane-combat strategy game. Why this combination? Because it gives players both: - A cozy, expressive relationship with their Colonist, and - A deep progression game with real strategic choices. The 4X category has the highest LTV in gaming and almost no innovation. Colony brings something truly new, and we’re holding ourselves to a very high bar—anything less than incredible execution won’t do. We are tracking toward a Q1 2026 release on iOS and Android, and it’s looking extremely strong. Post-release objective: scale. šŸ¤– Wayfinder @AIWayfinder What’s becoming clear in the data - Wayfinder’s edge is Autonomous Strategies. We’ve built a live strategies platform on the site today, currently testing with five autonomous agents: - Hyperliquid Funding Rate Strategy - Prjx Concentrated LP - Stablecoin Strategy - Hyperlend Stable Optimizer - Moonwell wstETH Loop Strategy More strategies are coming in the next weeks. To make this easier for people to deposit into—and ideally make money through—we’re launching a dedicated sub-site focused entirely on access and simplicity. We’re also releasing a strategy harness that lets anyone build strategies and benefit when others use them. Autonomous agents are the future of investing. And we intend to be the place where that future actually works. šŸŽ® Sanctuary @Sanctuary_B3 The Sanctuary playtest last week was a highlight. Hundreds of players jumped in and finally experienced the world in full 3D. A few takeaways: - People genuinely enjoyed it - Many had played Arc Raiders already, which made the validation even stronger - The core loop works, and seeing it resonate at this stage is huge There’s still a long road ahead—it’s a large, feature-rich project—but the foundation is exactly where it needs to be. No timeline to share yet here. Special thanks to our partners @b3dotfun for bringing this project to life with us! So What’s on the road ahead? Wayfinder Doubling down on Autonomous Strategies and making them accessible to everyone. @AIWayfinder TCG World-class mobile release on iOS + Android, launching Q1 2026. @ParallelTCG Colony Best-in-class mobile 4X with Grok-style companion interactions, also launching Q1 2026. @ParallelColony On a personal note, I am optimistic about the future and hope to come up from the pain cave I have been living in to turn things around a bit more frequently in Q1 as we approach release. Thank you! //

What is the price of freedom? Most of us spend over half our lives trapped in our heads, thinking and overthinking instead of being fully here in the rawness of the present moment. A recent loss made me reflect. At the end of life, do we wish we had spent more time online? More time in our thoughts endlessly spiraling, or trapped in our fantasies? The cost of living in your own head is missing the world around you. The beauty of Earth. The warmth of connection. For me, photography and long days in the wilderness have been my anchor. My way back to presence. My way back to life. What is the price of freedom to you?

Life is all about managing the transition and this little photog has retired from the Army, completed an international move, and is now awaiting the start of a new chapter. āœˆļø Just thought I would drop a proof of life… GM šŸ˜‰
