My heart is heavy & I might have more to say on that later, but I've got news today that my time at Heart Machine will come to an end after POSSESSOR(S) ships. I'm honestly too busy... literally shipping the game to start actively looking for work, but I'll be looking for my next gig in December. 🥲

My time at Heart Machine has sadly come to a rather abrupt end. I was there for almost 6 years, & had been working on Breaker since summer 2020. It was a pleasure working with them! Now, a new chapter begins.

The Terrible Layoff Beast has come for me and I no longer work for Heart Machine. It was a good team, I'm sad I won't get to work with them anymore. If you're looking for a game designer, I'm available for full time gigs and consulting. I'm pretty OK at it. I'll have more info to share in a bit.

I've reposted many posts made by folks who were recently laid off from Heart Machine, but here is a thread that highlights them all. I am also including folks who were previously laid off & are still looking for work. I will be linking their Bsky posts, as well as LinkedIn. Please, share this. 🖤

Learned that I am being laid off from Heart Machine, and will be leaving the studio later this month. Do you need a contractor? I've got a track record of leading scope-friendly script revisions late in dev. I have also done a lot of consulting on new IPs and pitches/demos. Feel free to DM me!

Hi friends. Unfortunately, my time at Heart Machine is coming to an end. I’m seeking a new role and would appreciate your support. Saying goodbye to such a talented team is difficult, but I am excited for the next adventure. <3 I'll have more info soon. Thanks everyone. Stay strong out there.

It's that time again, folks. I have been told I will be let go from Heart Machine next week. The people there have been amazing friends and coworkers and anyone else who has been affected deserves all the love and support. I will be updating my portfolio soon; any Env Art leads would be appreciated

Time for another reference dump! This zip file contains 2,566 photos (6.58 GB) from the Metropolitan Museum of Art arms and armor collection. I tried to focus on the types of details you don't see in most available reference, like hinges and fasteners. Enjoy! drive.google.com/file/d/1emF3...

It's made of darkened metal and has gold trim and accents.A closeup shot of some buttons, fasteners, and ties on a small section of a samurai armor set's front chest plate. There are various ornate patterns, complex knots, and overlapping pieces.A closeup shot of the thumb and forefinger of a European steel gauntlet inlaid with gold. It has bronze rivets and a white leather glove under the overlapping finger armor pieces.A closeup shot of an extremely ornate double barreled shotgun's firing mechanism and trigger. The hammers are shaped like squirrels holding nuts and there is floral filigree everywhere.
