Hey Bluesky! I'm Steve, a Technical Animator/Artist in video games who's currently looking for work! I was at Harebrained Schemes for about 11 years, where I worked on Shadowrun Returns, Battletech, The Lamplighters League and more! I'd appreciate any leads if you have them, thanks!

I want to drive a dump truck of cow manure to the Microsoft headquarters and drop it off in the lobby as a thank you.
They didn't ask for it, they didn't want it, but maybe they can figure out how to get rid of it.

Is there a way to get this mind-numbing Co-Pilot shit off Microsoft Word?

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

The games industry brings in 300 billion dollars a year. The guy who made DOOM gets his projects canceled, the guy who made Katamari Damacy is broke, everyone in your feed is begging for a job and there are 50 new games coming out on Steam every day all going towards buying Gabe Newell's next yacht
Keita Takahashi (Katamari, Wattam, Noby Noby Boy) has moved back to Japan, and says he may be forced to quit the games industry due to To a T underperforming.
He also says he'd love to work on Katamari again, and for someone to invest in his studio.

Pro Tip: Instead of looking for an anime with a "90s aesthetic", just watch a 90s anime. HUGE time saver.

Another peek at Shadowrun in Japan, this time from the mid-90s, with artwork from the Entangled Betrayal scenario.
This artwork is a fair bit less cutesy than that of the SR manga I previously shared, but still has those unmistakable anime vibes.

Seeing 28 Days Later, when they get to Manchester, the crowd had fallen mostly quiet. Then the drop of blood falls into Brendan Gleeson's eye, and from the audience there was just a single, heartbreaking *gasp*
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?
Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.

It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

This is the way to do it.
The union is across the whole company.
This means leadership can't just fire a department, like we see with various QA groups being let go.
It's cross discipline, so true collective bargaining is possible, and 'solidarity' moves are feasible.

everyone who's been laid off in the last 3 years and just trying to get through it/hoping that they'll work in the industry they love again.
Gamedevs don’t get enough appreciation for what they do, and often the biggest impact comes from people the public never hears about.
Which gamedevs would YOU give an award to, and for what?
