A great time on Thursday, headling @cpxmcr.bsky.social's event 'PLATFORM'.

It was a privilege to show off ROOST and catch-up with friends new and old.

Big thanks to @thatsnogreg.bsky.social and the rest of the great folks at CULTPLEX for continuing to host such a fantastic event in Manchester.

From my game ROOST, a first-person experience channelling the essence of Silent Hill into a North-East, British setting.

Heavily inspired by Paratopic by @docseuss.bsky.social / @jessiscah23.bsky.social / @lazzieb.bsky.social

I might have just conceptualised and prototyped the best character driven Save / Safe Room idea ever.

It's been a while.

I realised that it's been a year since I first started chucking around ideas & concepts for ROOST.

I haven't been able to give the project the time it deserves the last 6 months or so.

Hoping to carve out some time soon.

Still thinking about the underwater sequence from the new Mission Impossible. An incredible bit of movie magic.

Halo 2 and 3 vinyls arrived. Of course I forgot my record player is currently busted :(

“I've given up all chance at inner peace. I've made my mind a sunless space. I share my dreams with ghosts.”

Finished with this Stellan Skarsgård // Andor study.

About 6 hours of struggling and persevering.

Art is hard.

Officially over 6,000 Wishlists for ROOST. Thanks again for helping spread the word.

Making a game in my spare time is effort and progress is slow but we'll get there in the end.

Thank you 👻
