Pretty dresses, plastic chainsaw knights, and designing video games. Level designer on ‘Graft’. Formerly of Monolith Productions. Designer and writer of ‘Ambition: A Minuet in Power’. Horny on main. (They/She/He) www.luther-patenge.com
Applied for a junior producer role at a major studio. Flown out to the HQ for all day final interviews. That night, one guy calls me on the phone for more questions. Tells me I don’t want the job and just want a foot in the door for design. This man, at a GDC party, told me to apply for the job.

Her: What’s wrong? I’m just checking your YouTube algorithm for red flags. Me:
When did so much fantasy anime become pro-slavery? What’s happening over there?

Bart⚓️@bartgonnissen.bsky.social · 3d agoThe Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

Been following ‘The Boy From Venus’ by @shenanigansen.bsky.social and really enjoying it. The latest entry had a panel that stuck with me so hard that I needed to cobble together a phone wallpaper of it for my lock screen. It’s amateurish but some might like it!

13 years in games, mostly as a game designer. 8 months without a short contract, 1.5 years without a full time job. Starting to look for work outside of games but I don’t even know where to start. What things are a game designers skill set useful for? Looking for advice. Pics for visibility
D&D peaked with the wiener-biting face-stabbing scorpadillo. And check out that snake. That's fucking peak snaking, I dare say. Heroes wore mawashi, kitty-ear head bands, and NOTHING ELSE. No scabbards no belts no backpacks. Grognards long for the golden age. An ago of wiener-biting & kitty ears
As of today, there are now 3 official trans holidays: March 31st: Trans Day of Visibility November 20th: Trans Day of Remembrance December ???: Astartes II Release Day

Saw 'Portrait of a Lady on Fire' (2019) last night with my partner because wine-drunk-period-romance-watches was a big part of our early dating life. What a gorgeous and elegantly spare movie. Diegetic sound and natural lighting. Both a tragic romance and a film about what women do to survive men.
I don't want to be Impressive. Creative. Hard working. The most highly recommended candidate they've seen in years. I just want to be employed.
We could all be watching a badass robot puppet fight a bunch of other puppets right now if we choose to...
I’ve been the game lead on a project with crunch and I want to say this with full throat: Crunch is a failure of project management, not a failure of workers to get things done. The scope was wrong, the budget was wrong, the release date was wrong, or something else, but management fucked up.

People learning lots of court jesters and fools were just mentally disabled people in silly hats: “How awful! How could anyone do that?” Every high school ‘class clown’ getting their adult ADHD diagnosis:

This guy is gonna lose and we're still somehow gonna have to hear for months about how it was trans people's fault and that he was too nice to us.

Being Queer, AMAB and friends with a lot of fujoshis is weird because sometimes I want to teach them things about gay male culture. Like, they could run real far just with Dark Rooms and Circuit Raves. Of course, I hold back because I'm not sure if they're ready to know about Trade. Forbidden Lore.
Joined a job hunt support group to deal with stress. Everyone's in different industries but the same level of seniority. Similar struggles, feels good to be heard. The only cis-woman left due to a scheduling conflict. In just a few months it's devolved into a desperate weekly AI infomercial.
