Approaching one year of unemployment is terrifying and bills need to be paid. A year of pitching The Arab League of Misfits yielded zero funding so far, and competing with 45K laid-off devs is bleak. I urgently need freelance or full-time remote roles www.linkedin.com/posts/nazihf...

Honored to have been a part of the narrative jury for BAFTA this year. It’s been a joy thoroughly going through the excellent nominees and discussing them with the rest of the jury - so many wonderful insights were shared. And congrats to winner Kingdom Come Deliverance II!

I know I’ve mentioned both of these games before but this is a good reason to do so again. Perfect combination to buy. Two of the best current story driven indie games and a must play for anyone interested in smart emotional interactive storytelling. Must buy!

Saw Taylor Tomlinson yesterday during her ‘Save Me’ tour. Smart, funny and original, focusing on religious upbringing and other family issues. Highly recommend to see live (not just on Netflix). Opening act Dustin Nickerson was lovely, too.

A photo of the stage of the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver before the show. We see an image of Taylor Tomlinson on a screen with a qr code for future dates. There is a mic and stool with bottle of water on stage. The curtains have a purple light hue. Front rows are packed with people.

Forgot to mention my PAX highlights! I’m excited for Rollergirl, Birdseed VR (by local team Buffalo Buffalo) and Veil of the Witch. Played Kirby Air Riders demo but didn’t click with me. Also, not on PAX but do check out The Midnight Barber (not out yet) from a super talented small Spanish team.

First shows of ‘the Song Collector’ tonight at Vancouver Fringe were nerve wrecking but wonderful. It was great to see people who never met before bond over music. Connections like that are essential right now.
