An unforgettable night at the BAFTAs! The team took home 3 of these golden beauties and I couldn’t be more proud of everyone. An absolutely incredible way to end our journey with Dispatch.

Just got back from seeing Mamoru Hosoda’s latest epic, Scarlet, in theaters. I had the immense honor of playing Scarlet, both spoken and sung, in the English dub. This was an incredibly special experience and I am so, so grateful to everyone on this project. ❤️
Had a nice & long chat with @official-aias.bsky.social and @alexaray.bsky.social about Dispatch. Long enough to where I didn't listen to it back to make sure I didn't say anything dumb. fingers crossed
On #GameMakersNotebook, @alexaray.bsky.social chats with @adhocstudio.com's @nicholasherman.bsky.social about Dispatch, difficulties of funding narrative games and how it led them to @criticalrole.bsky.social, how they approached the superhero genre, balancing player choice with narrative and more!
I’ve been too heads down on closing out Dispatch to be able to engage on socials, but I start and end my days swiping through reaction videos/art/cosplays and all of it is really fucking cool. Happy people are vibing with our weird-ass game.
Huge congrats to @supergiantgames.bsky.social on the launch of Hades II! We're big fans of everything you guys do, and apparently we're both bewitched by the extremely talented @erinyvette.bsky.social. now we need to choose between finishing dev on Dispatch or taking another shot at killing Time...

I had an extremely hard time convincing folks to watch The Franchise, so it shouldn't surprise me it's getting cancelled, but it was legitimately my favorite series from last year.
It was a blast getting to help remaster the Telltale Sam & Max games with a bunch of my friends from Telltale back then. The remasters have been out long enough that the whole trilogy’s getting discounts. If you want to play some fun adventure games by a big bunch of cool people, you could do worse.
That also means the Sam & Max Complete Trilogy bundle is a nice round 30% off: store.steampowered.com/bundle/42652...
Happy Holidays, from our cubical to yours.🎄🎊 Everyone at AdHoc is super grateful for the love and support following the announcement of Dispatch. We’re excited for what’s to come and we’ll see you all in the new year! 🎨: Derek Stratton (Art Director)
