Me explaining to anyone who will listen how I just really like Keith David and everything he’s ever been in, even the bad stuff, because he just seems to always be having a good time and I’m glad he’s getting a star on the Walk of Fame because good for him.
Just gonna reach out again to see if anyone needs an extra hand for Unreal support/Netcode/lobby/character action and controls/fighting games. My cost of living is pretty low and so my rates are reasonable.

If music was reviewed like videogames are: "This metal song has too much drums." "I wish this song wasn't metal, I like Rap. It should be Rap." "The song is good but they should hire a new singer" "The thing is they're using Gibson guitars, they need to switch to Fender and it'll sound better"
I've been running gdcparties.com for a few years now. Some shitty company BlueberryAI decided they'd just take all the source code for the work I've done and reskin it, advertising it as their own. Jokes on them...it was still linked to my events spreadsheet, and now their website looks like this 😉
