@jpop.bsky.social hi James! I just taught my 1st game design class in Palmdale for a community I’m creating called the High Desert Game Devs. I wanted to say thanks because I quoted you from a presentation you did at College of the Canyons, where you discussed the psychological effects of jumping

Today I saw the singers of #Persona 3 Reload and Persona 5 in person. Man…I feel a lot. I’ve been a fan of the games and especially the music for my entire adult life. Every single game I’ve ever made, I’ve made while listening to some persona ost. I’m so lucky I got to be at the first U.S. concert

I was so excited to see the new Kirby Air Riders gameplay presented in the classic Sakurai level of detail, but I’m a bit sad that Top Ride mode is gone. This was actually my favorite of the original modes. Despite that, the game looks fantastic! I’m so excited for it.

This month has been really challenging for me after being laid off. I tried challenging myself to land a job by today. It didn’t happen. It’s okay. I’ll find something. I decided to still celebrate myself on my birthday by seeing the newest Ari Aster film. Just like the rest of his work, masterful

Losing your job in a volatile industry is one thing, but having it happen when extreme racism makes being Latino something to fear is a whole other story. Kidnappings in broad daylight. Concentration camps. It’s all so mentally draining. Somehow though, I escape by making games. #gamedev

@gvg.io just caught the top ten multiplayer video you all released. It made me wonder if there’s any possibility of you guys doing a top ten video on cancelled games that people WISHED they got to play. That’d be super interesting. Mother 3, StarCraft Ghost, Contra 64, Kirby Tilt and Tumble 2, etc

I’ll soon be available for game design, creative direction, and consultancy opportunities while I develop my own projects. I’m also open to paid speaking engagements if you know of any! If you’d be willing to share/repost this, or just send a kind word, I’d truly appreciate it. Thank you! ♥
