This tidbit was in the article. 🎈💥 ? "Goldman Sachs warned Friday that AI hyperscalers, including Meta, need to generate roughly $300 billion a year in AI services revenue just to break even on their capital spending—and $1 trillion annually to earn meaningful profits—spooking investors."

✨ Cover illustration for the last issue of Apparition Literary Magazine. Unfortunately, I don't think it ever got released before the magazine closed. A bit more about the illo in thread! #illlustration

Today is the 5th anniversary of Boyfriend Dungeon. In honor of these five years, I present the actual first storyboard for the ending cutscene (SPOILERS!), as drawn in 2020 by creative director @tanyaxshort.bsky.social, to explain her vision to the artists. Whatever tool works, ya'll.

A company first: we're showing Mandrake at Gamescom, thanks to the support of @indiearenabooth.de!

If you're coming to @londongamesfest.bsky.social New Game Plus tomorrow or Friday, you'll find us in the Official Selection area. Here's a taste of what to expect in Mandrake!

Invest in the lore skill. Visit the pub made out of the impaled skull of a murdered god. Get a pint. Go to magic school and learn about neuron stars. No not neutron, neuron. You gotta play Dread Delusion.

DreadXP@dreadxp.bsky.social · 7mo ago

Dread Delusion is out now on consoles! Explore a decaying kingdom filled with dangerous creatures and strange gods as you hunt down Vela Callose and discover what her plans are for the Oneiric Isles. www.youtube.com/watch?v=khzh...

Endpaper illustrations for 'We Who Have No Gods' by Liza Anderson, FairyLoot, and Bantam Books. Thank you for letting me paint these two badass characters! #romantasy #art #digitalart #illustration

A wistful #WishlistWednesday. Mandrake is a rural life sim, and our first game to feature actual weather.

I was lucky to paint the cover for this one!

I have a book out today! Aestred Thurga: Pyre of Faith is loosed upon the world! Gorgeous, Limited Edition spredge hardcover, and some of my absolute most favouritest world-building ever. Plus Thurga herself, her Tapestry and a proper, scenery-chewing Nasty. www.warhammer.com/en-GB/shop/a...

Essentially, I think that LLM-generated dialogue only makes sense if you believe that the product of writing is words. But the product of writing isn't words, any more than the product of justice is prisoners, or the product of love is weddings. The product of writing is meaning.

I had five fascinating conversations for this RPS piece, gathering perspectives on genAI chatbots in games, as seen in Where Winds Meet. Thanks to @meghna.bsky.social, @pyrofoux.bsky.social, @maxkreminski.bsky.social, and @chrisgardiner.bsky.social www.rockpapershotgun.com/horrible-bor...

Cover for SOUL OBSESSION by Kalista Neith and Fae Crate Thank you for having me! I also did the page end design for this edition -- very happy with how those turned out (it's more starry snakes). I think the cover ended up being one of my favourite pieces this year.

Cover for THE TRIDENT AND THE PEARL -- upcoming romantasy book by Sarah K. L. Wilson. Really proud of this one, especially of all the water caustics. And it's always a joy to work with Sarah! #romantasy #illustration

We're making Mandrake, a rural life sim set in a beguiling new world inspired by British history and folklore. Now we're not in the Fallen London universe (Sunless Sea, Sunless Skies), we had the opportunity to add sunshine! And trees! 😮 🧵 #wishlistwednesday

That's the art I did for Mandrake! Thank you very much!

We're not at the end of the year yet so there is still time for some surprises but here are four of the best game key arts unveiled so far in 2025. We'll vote for a winner in December so if you see any good new ones let me know! Not judging the games, but specifically the key art.

Was very lucky to do a cover for a reprint of GODS OF JADE AND SHADOW by Silvia Moreno-Garcia and Arcadia Books 💚

I got interviewed by Chris, our Narrative Director and an overall fantastic human being. Working with him has been nothing short of amazing -- I really enjoy playing a part in developing these characters and the places they live in.

Where would they put their shoes? @erionmakuo.bsky.social and @chrisgardiner.bsky.social peer in through the windows of a family home from Mandrake, and talk about how our art tells stories.

cheers very much @pcgamer.com for the coverage on mandrake this month <3
