Looking back at my videos for #thelongdark, there is one that stands out as my favorite of them all. While not canon, the Darkwalker is a topic in the game that leaves you wanting more. This one is perfect for the Halloween season too. #smallcontentcreator #smallyoutuber youtu.be/VEYLoj8IG1g?...

While working on Vessels, I had to learn a lot of new things. Setting up lighting, fog, and other effects wasn't easy, but this particular view from the main menu gives me chills. It is still a bit rough, but reflects only a small work into the visuals of the game. #indiegamedev #gamedev

Just a short and sweet video on the #destiny2 news about the content vault. This video explores some of the content that has been missing for far too long. #destinycontentvault #smallyoutuber youtu.be/myiZlR65nw4?...

As I inch closer to getting it in a place where I think it is worth sharing, these are the first pre-demo screenshots of my game Vessels. I have been working on it by myself for almost 2 years. More information soon about the demo release date and the game itself. #indiegamedev #UE5 #unrealengine

@raphlife.bsky.social I'm playing Ep. 3 again and need an answer. What happened with Father Thomas and the crash survivors? We didn't get an answer at the end of Ep. 5 whether they went along with the others or if they got left behind.

In about 1 hour, I'm releasing part 1 for a project that I have spent the summer working on. Using the foundation of the lore of #thelongdark, I have created my own story inspired by the game's past. This is Notes Left Behind. #smallyoutuber #smallcontentcreator youtu.be/NIGKBtTvWkQ?...

Last week, I went through a rough experience with a devastating weather event. I couldn't help but reflect on that time without power and compare it to my experiences in #thelongdark. #smallcontentcreator #smallyoutuber youtu.be/GL5fLvu7ZyU?...

Fellow indie game devs, where the hell are you all getting your sound effects? Searching for item pick up sounds, UI/button sounds, and puzzle complete/reset sounds is a pain in the behind. Maybe I'm being too specific with some of these, but some general sounds could help. #indiedev #gamedev

I just finished Wintermute Ep. 5 for #thelongdark. I'm still reeling from the incredible story telling and emotional rollercoaster it put me on. I have only ever cried for one other game, which was TLoS Part 2. I can't wait to see what comes next. @hinterland.bsky.social @raphlife.bsky.social

I'll be on this episode to celebrate the upcoming Wintermute Ep. 5 release for #thelongdark.

Sad day for me. My role at DICE as Studio Art Director has been eliminated and I’ve been impacted by the layoffs on Battlefield. I’m very proud of our work on BF6, my team at DICE, and my own impact since joining 3 years ago. I learned a ton, and got to work with amazingly talented people 🙏

IGN@ign.com · 7mo ago

EA is laying off an unknown number of individuals from across its Battlefield teams, including workers at Criterion, Dice, Ripple Effect, and Motive Studios, IGN understands. https://bit.ly/4ujAKXV

I got bored. Less then 2 hours in a fresh #unrealengine project and ball rolling from scratch. This was called Viscid Touch. It was very fun to figure out back then and it was just as fun now. This is a bit rougher, but some tweaking would make it perfect. #indiegamedev

A little late for the 7 year anniversary, but I've been feeling a little nostalgic for my first game Rollossus. Reflecting on it now, I'm proud of the work that we did despite the game being so small and simple. Maybe I will remake some of the work I did for funsies. #smallgamedev #indiegamedev
