After a few months off I'm happy to share that Leeds Games Toast is returning next week. We're close to the train station, and we (gadly) get game makers from across the North, NE, NW joining us to hang out and chat with fellow game makers

I know I'm not setting any growth records with my channel, but incredibly proud to have reached this milestone. If you're one of these subscribers, tysvm 😍

Are there news outlets that *only* publish researched stories at the expense of time to market? I'm increasingly feeling like if the story broke within an hour of it happening, it's not worth reading (the writing, not the story). And if it doesn't warrant an emergency broadcast, I can wait.

Pro-tip: if you're going to drink whiskey and stream REPO with 12 other people, don't have the bottle on your desk 😳

When did the film journalism industry collectively agree it made any kind of sense to include a marketing budget in the "break even" amount but not the budget? If it needs to make $350m to break even, it did not have a budget of $140m. Words mean things.

I'll never understand websites that try to seize control of the back button to prevent you from leaving. Do they not understand the sheer bloody-minded petty stubbornness that drives me? Try that shit one time, and not only am I definitely leaving, I'm never coming back.

I think Imma have to call @microsoft.com's HR department because that Windows startup pop-up for connecting to your phone and using 365 has not been respecting my wishes for years now. No matter how many times I go through it saying I don't want it, it eventually comes back. No means no, Microsoft.

Not exactly setting my portfolio on fire with this one, but in my first few weeks as a games programming student, I made this for an assignment (we weren't allowed to use/make assets, only primitive shapes).
