Here’s what we did:

The original composer of the Tides of Time theme song REMASTERED it. We are pressing both the original and remastered songs on vinyl. Here’s the cover. Re-tweet to support Ecco the Dolphin!

"I was the Jira" made me giggle
Multiple times, I've been offered a job with reduced title and compensation, but the exact same responsibilities and goals, explicitly due to lack of AAA experience.

Glad I have AAA titles under my belt now, but it was so disheartening at the time.

Today is my bday. This day never meant much to me until I lost my stepfather 4 yrs ago on Nov 14th. Now I am reminded of the great man my family lost, but also how us kids all are who we are because of him. It sounds like a sad day, but it is not. These are happy tears. Oh, Fuck cancer.

After about 7 hrs, I am finishing building it! Love how it came out, but building it kinda sucked at times because of how tiny it is.

Go support the POSSESSOR(S) team! I got work on a few areas of the game and it was so fun and refreshing! This team put so much love into it!!!
POSSESSOR(S) is launching today.

I have been the producer on this project for three years, & the last few weeks have been difficult. Most of the team isn't around anymore to celebrate the launch, so I wrote many words about these incredible people to celebrate them.

I am not one to post like this usually, but as things have developed recently, I want to take a minute and get some stuff off my chest.
