opened a tab to search for something and it just evaporated from my brain please let me know if you find it 🙏

The Rising continues to be my favourite event in FFXIV.

Hello! I'm CJ! 👋 ❤️ 🎮 Senior / Lead Game Designer. 🎮 Nearing my 20th year working in the industry. 🎮 Formerly employed at GRIN, DICE, and Massive Entertainment. 🎮 Shipped 20+ games, DLC's, expansion packs, and major post-launch updates. 🎮 Currently on the hunt for the next job opportunity.

Took some time recently to get my design work from SKATE posted! I’m currently looking for my next World Art & Level Design opportunities. If your team needs match my experience across the last decade, my inbox is open. citizenu11.artstation.com #skate #gamedev #leveldesign #opentowork

Big Walk was excellent

Spent an amazing week in the lakes with friends walking, climbing, rowing, and playing games.

Here's a collection of queer game devs to put on your timeline. It got so full I had to make a 2nd one (linked in the comments)

I made a Starter Pack for queer game devs - if you’re new to Bsky, here are a bunch of LGBTQ+ gamedev professionals if you want to network! (Reply here if you want to be added!) go.bsky.app/3mxxW8g

I love making games but this industry is so incredibly hostile to the folks who actually generate the value 🤷

Feels like a drop in the bucket but we have some open roles here at Respawn. Please reach out if I can help at all with any questions or referrals. www.respawn.com/careers/

“These new tools help us achieve greater realism in our movies” Aha, but I don’t actually want things to look more real. I actually don’t want that.

when I was younger I arrived at a house party and as soon as I walked in, a friend of mine handed me a spoonful of some kind of spicy paste and said "you need to eat this, everyone else has!"

THE MOUTH OF SAURON Made a little behance project for my Mordor series last week. www.behance.net/gallery/249139537/MORDOR

4 year Respawnniversary 🥳

What do you mean it's been THREE years???

Andrew Rennie 🏳️‍🌈@nerdy4tw.bsky.social · last yr.

Can't believe it's already been 2 years since we shipped Jedi: Survivor. They grow up so fast 🥲 Shout out to the rest of the team and all the awesome fans I've had the honour of meeting thanks to this game. You're all amazing ❤️

I always laugh when I see a "name a thing you've done X times" post cos I'm the type of person who finds a thing I like and then I'll watch/play/listen to that thing over and over and over until I've truly burned myself out on it.

Reposting an old one cos I've been deep in NDA land and my portfolio literally hasn't been updated since...

Hi friends 👋 I've never actually taken part in a #PortfolioDay so here are some bits from Star Wars Jedi: Survivor! You can see more at artstation.com/nerdy4tw

Here's a bunch of icons I created for @cultofthelamb.bsky.social Woolhaven ☃️ Always heaps of fun!

I mean sure, my golden goose lays a bunch of golden eggs every month. But I spend 5 bucks a month feeding it and frankly that's unacceptable.

I'm so sick of seeing AI disclaimers like this. The solution to not having the budget for voice acting isn't to use AI, it's to not have voice acting at all! Games don't need VO to be good! By jamming in slopvoices, you're not making your game better, you're making it worse and reprehensible!
