LLMs are making me wish I didnt spec into programming even more than I already did. The one positive I had going was the idea of a stable income for the people I care about and now I can't even provide that.

If you're looking for work in gamedev, here's a thread of guides I've written about everything from setting freelance rates to writing a good cover letter I've been in gamedev for over 13 years and been on both sides of the interview table a lot, so these are all the things I wish I'd known 🧵 1/6

this was the last stage track i composed for dragon drop - verve! i'm sure i'll end up doing more in the future, but i had the BEST time working on this game's soundtrack. dragon drop really helped shape my style into what it is today! #vgm

i do not want the games industry to recover. i want something new to be built atop its now ashen foundation and i want those who previously brought ruin, rot, and misery to be outside looking in as they give up and seek some other well to poison

I have so many thoughts and love many things about the TADC finale including how messy it is. The things which are chosen to be represented figuratively vs. literally feels so intentional and beautiful. I think its more self-aware than people may give it credit for.
